About this property

Canal Front, Private Dock, Steps to BEACH, Pool, Food! Resort Access included!

Look no further!! We offer it all- beach and canal!! This house is truly the best location on the island and allows easy access to all the island's activities! We are a canal-front home with a private dock, across the street from the beach, next to the tennis and pickle ball courts, across the street from olympic pool, adult pool, restaurants and shopping! We are less than 100 yards from beach access 16 - which has sand regardless of the tide! (This is an incredible bonus considering some beachfront homes don't have any beach during high tide or have a huge hike to actually get to the water!) We are also INCLUDING 2 Amenity cards with rental! Perfect home!

Once you visit our home you will want to return! This home has generations of love and laughter. It has an open floor plan so you can talk to the chef while sitting on the back porch overlooking the marsh! Downstairs you can follow a family tradition and have an oyster roast on the built in grill!

ADVENTURE/ACTIVITIES: If you feel the need to venture further, you can go to two different wonderful golf courses, a marina, five different restaurants, several pools, and a fitness center!
You can also explore the island on quiet roads and extensive bike trails. There is a lot of wildlife to be seen including alligators, pelicans, osprey, dolphins, crabs, and a lot of deer! There are also many great shells to be found on the beach. It is like your own little mini zoo!

If you wish to get intimately involved with wildlife, you can bring home dinner by going crabbing and fishing off our dock. You can also bring your boat and launch it at the marina or another close public launch.

Fripp also offers Camp Fripp, a children's recreation center where the kids can explore the island while mom and dad golf, play tennis, or just sit by the pool. There are organized activities for the older kids as well.

ISLAND FACTS: Fripp Island is a pristine 3000-acre private, gated island 19 miles outside of Beaufort, South Carolina. The island has three and a half miles of beautiful beaches. Several movies have been filmed on the island including Forrest Gump, Jungle Book, and The Prince of Tides. The authors Pat Conroy and Cassandra King chose to call the island home for a brief while.

HOUSE INFO: This four-bedroom, two-bathroom home has an outdoor covered porch and an enclosed sunroom. There is a king in one room upstairs and a queen in the other room. The pull-out queen is in the sunroom which has a door to shut it off from the rest of the house. Downstairs, one room has a queen and a twin and the other has a queen. PLEASE NOTE: you have to go outside to get to downstairs rooms. ALL OF THE ROOMS HAVE A TV!!! There is a wonderful view of the canal with a private dock. Downstairs there is a screen porch with an enclosed charcoal grill, a ping pong table, and of course a washer and dryer. The kitchen has all of the essentials and then some. You will surely want to enjoy it!

The house was originally intended to be a fishing camp. The downstairs was going to be for all my Grandpa's rowdy friends. The upstairs was supposed to be for the more refined guests! That being said - YOU HAVE TO GO OUTSIDE TO GO FROM THE UPSTAIRS ROOMS TO THE DOWNSTAIRS ROOMS. Some people find this charming. Some find it bewildering. I like to escape downstairs!

The cost of this rental INCLUDES the resort fee and 2 amenity cards!! That is a huge savings to you! If you wish to purchase additional cards the prices are listed below. They are purchased through the owner.

$55/card: Memorial Day - Labor Day for 4-7 days
$39/card: Memorial Day - Labor Day for for 1-4 days
$39/card: Fall, Winter, Spring for 4-7 days
$28/card: Fall, Winter, Spring for 1-4 days

Amenity cards ARE needed for the resort restaurants, golfing, tennis, paddle ball, access to pools, boat rental, paddle board rental.
Amenity cards ARE NOT needed for springtide deli, marina deli, golf cart rentals, bike rentals, and frolicking at the beach.

If you decide you don't need the amenity cards, I'll REFUND you 10% of your base price!!

About the host

Hosted by Marcie Hansen

Host profile image
This house was built by my grandprents in the 1960's. It has been a family haven ever since. My parents own it now. We have family vacations there once a year where we boat, swim, crab, bike, golf cart and get into all sorts of trouble!! I rent the house for them and remember visiting my Grandmother there when I was a kid. She made the craziest food and we had to eat it without complaining! I still can't eat cold soup!! We have so many family memories there, it is a vital part of our lives. We love it when people rent the house and develop some of their own memories!

What makes this property unique

This map doesn't show the canal for some reason. it is there right behind the house! Fripp Island is like any other place in the world. It is an experience you won't forget!!
