Oceanfront House - 5 Bedroom

Welcome to your vacation beach home on the southern half of Fripp Island! This home sits right beside the beach with magnificent views of the ocean. There are 2 ten foot wide porches, each equipped with rocking chairs and hammocks. The back porch sits right on the ocean and leads to an open deck seating area with shower and direct access to the beach. The front porch has views of the marsh and unrivaled marsh sunsets. At low tide the beach extends out to a half mile sandbar and an inlet which fronts onto an adjacent undeveloped Pritchards island.

The house includes 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. There is a Master Bedroom with spectacular ocean views, a King bed, private full bath, smart TV, and Sofa. Two additional bedrooms contain 2 Queen beds each and share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom. A fourth bedroom contains a Queen bed (with a hallway bath opposite it), while the 5th bedroom, on the ground / downstairs level, has a King bed, a private full bath, TV, and can be accessed from either an enclosed stairwell inside or a separate door leading directly outside. A washer and dryer are located on the main floor. High speed WiFi internet and cable TV are included. 2 Kayaks are also included.

When you're not at the beach, you can visit one of the island's swimming pools and other club amenities with the purchase of amenity cards. Club amenities include two golf courses, ten tennis courts, six pools, children's camp, restaurants, cruises, gym, computer business center, equipment rental, shops, and more. Equipment rentals include golf carts, scooters, bicycles, boats, kayaks, jet skis, etc. Please note that as Fripp is a private island, amenity cards are required if you would like to use these facilities or engage in club-sponsored activities on the island. While you do NOT need amenity cards to enjoy the beach or island, the club will charge an additional cost per card in addition to a 12.8% surcharge on your total night stay - but again these additional club fees are only in the event that you decide to buy club amenity cards.

In the summer we request that guests book for 7 days (SAT-SAT), while for the rest of the year booking requires a 3-4 night minimum length, depending on the time of year. Check-in is 4pm and check-out is 10am to allow adequate servicing and cleaning time.

We also offer a 6 seater electric golf cart which can be rented for an additional fee and will be cheaper than any local rental services.

Unfortunately we are not able to accommodate pets and cannot make exceptions.

Lovely Retreat
Myself and seven widows stated here for four nights. The property was lovely, open living room, spacious kitchen with coffee bar and not one but two refrigerators. The back porch is steps from the ocean with a spectacular view. Communication with owners was easy with cery speedy responses. Coming back in a year to do it again but for a week!

We had such a great time during our week. Everything was fabulous at the house and the beach was amazing. We loved using the rocking chairs on the back porch in the mornings and night after our day at the beach. Hoping to be able to get back there soon!!

Went with a group of girlfriends for a relaxing weekend beach getaway. This house was perfect! Everything was as described - lots of room for our group of 6 to spread out! Kitchen was very well stocked. Furniture was comfortable. Perfect location right on the beach! Golf cart was great too! The hosts were very responsive and helpful as well!

Beautiful and peaceful
The house and island were beautiful. The house easily accommodated two families with young kids. The kitchen offered lots of dishes, cooking utensils and tools. Two large fridges offered plenty of storage space for food and drinks. The beach was clean and easily accessible. We really enjoyed using the golf cart to cruise around the island and explore.

Loved it!! The house is even more beautiful than reflected in these pictures. Plenty of space for our three families - with room to spare! Clean and extremely well-stocked with linens, towels and kitchen supplies. Location as described - amazing sunrise and sunsets with direct access to the beach. Highly recommend!!

Great home
We very much enjoyed this home. The back porch with the view of the ocean was wonderful. The deck walk out to the beach entrance was great and easy to use. The home had plenty of space for three families of 4. The location was perfect for us. We used the kayaks and loved them. We were able to walk them over to an easy entry spot. A really great home.

Loved the location
It was fantastic to be right on the beach and we virtually had it to ourselves the whole time - that was awesome. The accommodations were comfortable and we enjoyed cooking and hanging out inside and out. The only complaint was that the floors didn't seem clean when we arrived and some weren't sure about the bedding. Drawers were also not very clean.

Great House, Great Location
We all loved our stay! The house is simple, but cozy. It was clean and the owners addressed any questions and issues within a few moments. The deer came up to the porch several times a day and the access to the beach is just a few steps. The island itself is perfect for relaxing or staying active. We saw dolphins several times a day from the front porch. Book the golf cart, it’s a great deal and you will need it. We will be back!

Wonderful porch
Our favorite part was sitting on the porch overlooking the ocean while rocking in the wonderful rocking chairs. The porch is covered and there is a nice breeze so we never got hot. The house suited our needs nicely. There was a slight musty smell in the common areas if the air conditioning wasn’t running but that would be the only thing that bothered us. We loved the two refrigerators!

Great house with a great location
We loved the location of this home, with views of the beach and the marsh. Beach was virtually private. Well appointed kitchen; love the 2 fridges and ovens for our large group! Beds were very comfortable. Super fun having the kayaks and golf cart. Living and dining areas were very comfortable for a large group. Played a lot of games at the table in the sun room! Owners were super easy to work with, vs going through a property manager. Will definitely consider returning here for future Fripp visits.

Excellent stay
You couldn't ask for a better location! The house met all of our accommodation needs. The house had a slight musty odor but nothing a little spray air freshener didn't take care of. The sunroom was perfect for doing craftwork and keeping it out of the way of my Grandchildren. The beds were very comfortable for all. The owners responded promptly to any extra questions. The golf cart was awesome, accomodating 6 people at a time. So much fun! Overall, the stay was excellent!

Excellent Fripp Island vacation home
My family really enjoyed staying at "The Fripp Side". It's a perfect location for both sunrise and sunset viewing, and the home was spacious and nicely decorated with easy & close beach access. The owners were extremely responsive, accommodating, and easy to deal with. Wildlife is everywhere on the Island, watch dolphins, osprey & pelicans from the sun room and deer will come right in the yard. Highly recommended for a happy experience!
