We have stayed here before and liked it very much, everything you need is available and the proximity to the beach is great. The owner should consider repairing or replacing the disposal, we couldn’t use it because it sounds like there is loose metal inside when you turn it on. Also, there are loose floor tiles in the guest bath. None of these are reasons not to stay there or like the place, just pointing it out. We would definitely return again!

Great Beach Cottage on Seabrook!

Loved our stay, the place was roomy for our small family, well stocked with what we needed, and in a very pleasant neighborhood. Appreciated the bikes and the beach chairs, plenty for all of us! Easy bike ride to the beach and pool. Can't wait to come back!

Lovely beach cottage

Had a great five night stay. Enjoyed walking around the neighborhood and biking to the beach club. House was nicely decorated and well equipped. We enjoyed several meals on the screen porch. Fave nearby restaurant was Salty Dog at the Bohicket Marina just a bit outside the gate.

Easter getaway

Seabrook Island is a great spot that my family and I have visited for a number of years. This property is in a really nice part of the island close to all of the beach access points. Like everything on the island it is quiet and you feel like you are all alone. The house was very comfortable and easily fit our family of 4 and our dog. Would recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at the cottage. The rooms were exactly as pictured and the extra amenities like the bikes and beach chairs were perfect.

Enjoyed the house for our Labor Day trip. We always enjoy staying in the area of this house. A few things we noticed, but did not spoil our trip...the water from the fridge is barely a dribble. I think the filter light came on. The TVs are quite small and a smart TV would have been nice...we haven't had cable in years. the steam from the bathroom sets of the smoke alarm, but we started using the fan which helped. We had recyclables but only one trash can, so didn't sort them out. The bed pillows in the master suite were small, flat and just uncomfortable...saw some additional pillows in the closet, but no pillow cases so those werent used. Overall a nice place to stay and would definitely consider staying here again. Enjoyed the bikes in the evening, which saved us from renting.

Hi Sheila, Please any time you are on property and do not have what you need , give us a call. We would of had a coffee maker sent over. The property manager would of been glad to take care of that. Also if ever on island and you have the amenities go to the Osprey up at the ocean and they have coffee and you can enjoy it by the ocean. Take care, Renee @ Coastal

Great Stay

We had a great stay at the home. The cottage was clean and in great proximity to the beach, golf course and clubhouse. Only minor item to fix would be the bikes (flat tire) and the dishwasher (control board wasn’t working). Otherwise we had a great time.

Lovely, shady, and quiet cottage!

This neat cottage includes a shady screen porch, comfortable beds, and a peaceful atmosphere. Perfect for a group of 4-6. Great walking area, near the golf course, and close to clubhouse and beaches. The ancient trees provide a canopy for biking and strolling. Clubhouse pools and workout areas are top shelf! Beautiful beaches! Close to fishing charters and village for shopping and dining. I would love to repeat this visit!

Overall was a good stay. House was cute, clean, plenty of linens, kitchen small but had what we needed. Mix up with LSV rental but was straightened out and also thought the house had bikes available as part of the home/price. Keurig did not work - they brought us a new coffee maker right away. Back screen door needs attention.

Great place for pets and their people

This home is good for pets and owners. We loved the screened porch and spent a good bit of time there. The dining table was perfect for family dinners and playing games. The home definitely needs a deep clean and updating. The available pans need to be replaced as well. The kitchen is functional, but only for one person. The location is really only driving distance to the beach. Overall the rental was accurate in the description for the most part.

Jodi, thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay on our beautiful island. WE are so happy you and your children and pup could gather together and enjoy one another. 550 Tarpon Pond Cottage is listed as mid-island, so definitely not walkable to the main beach club area. Best mode of transportation is bikes or a car. It has been a long busy summer and our property managers are starting their deep cleans, as I write. We hope to see you back on our sandy beaches again in the future. Christine

Comfortable beach house

This house had just about everything we could have needed! The owners thought of everything; tv’s in every room, bicycles, beach chairs, gas grill (no brush to clean it though), coffee maker with keurig, liquid soap, and plenty of towels! The agency was wonderfully responsive when I informed them that I had left a couple of things behind! My only note for families with older adults…the main dining area in the house is a “high top” table with stools w/o backs. The dining table/chairs is outside on the screened in porch and it was too hot to eat outside!

A lovely and relaxing place to stay

This clean cottage was well-suited to our family's needs and we enjoyed our stay here. While the kitchen was small and the cause of several 'traffic jams', it was fully functional and had everything we needed to dine-in (a necessary vacation modification due to Covid). We enjoyed sharing meals around the big dining table and numerous stools--everyone could eat together (this is often not the case with rental homes). The kids enjoyed the smart TV (although us adults could never figure out how to watch a local station for weather updates, etc!) The use of the beach bikes was most appreciated--we used them for getting around and even going out to Freshfields for some provisions. And we really liked the seaside and starfish themed decor. Lastly, the screened porch in back was a lovely place to relax.

Great Property, Poor Communication

Our experience at this VRBO was unfortunately disappointing. We specifically chose the property because it advertised a crib, but upon arrival, we were told we had to rent one separately—a frustrating surprise for traveling parents. Additionally, the washing machine was broken during our stay. While we contacted maintenance promptly, there was no clear communication about when they would arrive or whether they had attempted to fix it, and the issue remained unresolved. These unexpected problems made our trip more stressful than it needed to be.

Great cottage!

This is a sweet little cottage that is nicely decorated and has a well equipped kitchen. The screened in porch is a bonus and you can sit out there with the fans on and it doesn’t get too terribly hot because of all the nice shade. I love they provide bikes. The beach is about a 10 minute walk. It was very relaxing. I’d give it 5 stars but we did have a few problems with ants and a very large spider that we had to call about. Also the blind to the screened in porch was broken and we had to take it down to get out if he door. They were very responsive to us and offered to fix that while we were there, but it wasn’t a huge deal so we said no. Also, I felt like it could have been a bit cleaner. There was a lot of dust behind the side table in the bed room that I would have called about but I just cleaned it up myself. I would recommend this house as I believe the owners would be quick to fix these problems.
