Golf Cart, River and Marsh Views, Oceanfront Community, Beautiful Sunsets

This beautiful Key West style home is located on Harbor Island, a quiet private island just 15 minutes from Beaufort, SC. Harbor Island boasts a small neighborhood feel, having a private two-mile stretch of natural beauty, low-country calm beaches, which are just a short golf cart ride away within the neighborhood. The gated community has 5 freshwater lagoons, providing nesting areas for thousands of wading birds, gathering for their migratory flights. It's an ideal spot for families with young children. The sun sets every night right out of your front door, just above the Harbor River Bridge. This is the perfect place for a relaxing weekend getaway!
The home also comes with one four passenger golf cart. That's enough golf cart space for the entire family and gives easy access to all the island's amenities. Amenities include pools (Olympic size and kiddie), crabbing dock, tennis courts, pickle ball court, playgrounds, volleyball, basketball, fishing areas and fitness center. There is a saltwater tidal canal in the neighborhood that provides access to fishing and crabbing.

Perfect getaway!

This was such a relaxing and much needed break for my family and I. The home was clean, comfortable and fully stocked. The host, Melissa was incredible! The internet was out from a storm and she was in constant communication to get it back on for us. There were plenty of books, games and puzzles to keep us occupied until they were able to restore it. The golf carts were great for a stroll to the private beach and we enjoyed every moment of our vacation! We will definitly come here again! The view of the sunset and wild life from the wrap around porch was breath taking! Thank you again, Melissa, for everything! coagain!!minute of our stay!

Lovely vacation home

We enjoyed our stay in this lovely home! The house itself is in immaculate condition with plenty of room for our family of six including comfortable beds and den seating. It surpassed our expectations with all of the extra attention to details that other reviewers have mentioned as well as the breath taking views! With all of the beautiful picture windows you did not even have to go outside to enjoy the views. The golf court gave us easy access to the beaches and island and we enjoyed bird watching, alligator spottings, and even saw a sea turtle nest inventory that resulted in watching baby hatchlings make it to the sea! We love the peace and quiet that comes with Harbor Island and would definitely recommend this home to everyone! Hope to be back!

Wonderful Coast Getaway

Thank you Frank and Faye for allowing us to enjoy your wonderful little cottage. This is the fourth year my husband and I have spent two great weeks in the little yellow cottage on Harbour Key. The cottage is extremely comfortable and has all the amenities you could desire. After a long day on our boat fishing, crabbing, and shrimping, it is so enjoyable to open the door to the cool comfort found inside. Our visitors especially enjoyed the new addition of the wide screen TV, as did we. Frank goes out of his way to be attentive to any possible need that might arise. I always feel I can call before, during, and after our trip about anything. The environment is peaceful with great seafood dining close by. Beaufort is only about 30 minutes away with entertainment and more great food. We will definitely be back next year and recommend it to anyone.

Relaxing Vacation

My family and I stayed for five nights at this beautiful home. The house was very clean and well stocked with all you need to relax and enjoy the beach. The golf cart was a fun way to explore the island and get back and forth from the beach. Our host was most helpful when we decided to extend our stay an extra night. We didn't want to leave!

Needs a little love

The home is in great need of TLC. The outside could use a major cleaning. The inside could also use a deep cleaning. When walking with no shoes on our feet would be black from the floor. The outside needs pressure washing, especially the steps, balcony and concrete. Weeds were overgrown and bushes hung over the driveway.The concrete and steps have been neglected for sometime. One could tell the cleaning service does the bare minimum. The mattresses also need to be replaced. It would also help if the correct size sheets were used. Every night the sheets rolled off bc full size sheets were used on queen beds. I suggest replacing the linens as well. They are faded, some ripped and have an odd mildew smell when they get wet. These are just things to know if you consider booking. I will have to say the owner was very responsive at all times. The check-in and out process was seamless. The pass to the state park was a plus. When owners don’t live near the property, I feel sometimes they don’t realize the disarray of the property. It’s the visitors’ responsibility to let them know. Overall, we enjoyed the week and the house met our needs.
