The deck overlooking the lagoon has a grill to complete this inviting cottage. Be sure to enjoy your morning coffee, evening beverage, or a nice meal on the cozy screened porch while you gaze on beautiful lagoon backdrop. Free wifi.

Wonderful week on Kiawah

Overall we had a really fabulous week. Susie was great, so accommodating even before our arrival time with local information on bike rentals, stores etc. we loved the refreshing and beachy feel of the cottage. The walk to the beach and pool were both very reasonable and often we rode bikes which was even faster. As I stated before, overall it was a very relaxing genuinely great week on the island.

Comfortable villa

Clean and comfortable. Our first trip to Kiawah island. It was nice. Because we rented through this venue, there was no access to the fun pools the kids would have enjoyed. The bike paths are wonderful. There is shopping close, and the beach is beautiful and not crowded. Overall, I think it was relaxing and worth the cost.

What a wonderful week

My husband, 3-year-old daughter and I had a fantastic week at 1221 Greenslake. The bungalow is lovely with a well stocked kitchen and very comfortable living space. The location is terrific and we enjoyed long bike rides, swimming in the community pool and playing on the beach. Susie was great to work with and was very prepared and responsive. We hope to find ourselves back here next year.

Great Choice

The cottage is located in a gated community. It is well furnished and conveniently located. Kiawah Island is upscale, quiet and beautiful. We rented bikes from Alligator and rode along the beach (lots of pelicans and even a small herd of deer playing at the edge of the surf) and on many of the beautiful bike paths. There are several well known golf courses on the property and although we didn't play, they are beautiful to see. The manager of the property was very helpful in providing info about the island before we arrived.

Beatiful cottage with everything we needed!

Beautiful remodeled open main area, screened porch, gas grill and short bike ride to the beach - everything we wanted! Extra surprise - it was stocked with a spice rack (we used up Italian Seasoning, btw), dish soap and laundry detergent - very useful. We donated a nonstick skillet. Baking sheet is needed, but someone had left some disposable ones, so we were fine. Highlight of the trip - we finally got to see the dolphins strand feed (west end of island at low tide) - sooo cool!

Lovely beach cottage

Our family of 4 had a great stay in this recently renovated cottage. We loved the very large kitchen area that was sparkling clean and had all the amenities needed to prepare meals. The couches were comfy and the bedrooms were perfect for a family (king bed in the master and 2 twins for the kids). We love the location of the Greenslake Cottages -- they are close to the main gate & the Fresh Fields shopping area and are just a short walk away from the beach and the community pool. We would stay here again. This is our 2nd stay renting through Susie (manager) -- she is a find! Very attentive, gives you lots of info about the island & things to do, and really cares about making your stay the best it can be.

Perfect Cottage for Family of 4

This is our third year staying in Greenslake Cortages, but our first staying in the this unit. It is by far the most inviting and comfortable to date. The open kitchen was such a treat and allowed so much light from the slider off the living room. There were plenty of cooking utensils for all our meals. The gas grill was a nice treat! The bedrooms were comfortable and clean. The twin beds in the front bedroom worked perfectly for our kids. The bathrooms were updated and clean. The screen porch was our favorite as we would sit out and enjoy morning coffee and listen to all of Kiawah's amazing wildlife. The location of Greenslake cannot be beat as they are tucked away at the end of Kiawah Beach Drive for ultimate privacy, but still close enough to the beach and straw market. Our host was always very responsive whenever we had a question! Overall, we were very pleased and enjoyed our stay. We are already setting our sights on next summer!

Quiet, great location

We really enjoyed this cottage. It was clean & the property manager replied quickly. The walk to the beach is about 10 minutes or 5 minutes by bike but we didn’t mind it. Highly recommend getting bikes to ride around town & travel down to see the dolphins. I would recommend this cottage to anyone who wants a cozy, quiet place to vacation.

About the host

Hosted by Kiawah By Owner - Susie Oringel

We purchased our cottage on Kiawah Island in summer of 2005, and I began renting it on VRBO during the weeks we were not able to enjoy Kiawah ourselves. In 2007, a friend on nearby Seabrook Island asked me if I would help her rent her villa also. Since I loved helping people plan their vacations in the area, I obtained my South Carolina Property Manager's License and began a business - Kiawah By Owner. I now help rent more than 30 other properties on Kiawah Island and Seabrook Island in addition to our cottage. I look forward to helping you plan your vacation - Susie Oringel
