Behind the Gates | A Seabrook Island Escape by Sandpiper
Newly Remodeled Private Retreat Behind the Gates of Seabrook Island
Tucked away on a quiet half-acre of Lowcountry seclusion, shaded by more than a dozen palm trees, this recently remodeled 3-bedroom home is your private escape on one of the Southeast's most coveted barrier islands — and it comes with the keys to everything Seabrook has to offer.
Behind the Gates | A Seabrook Island Escape located at 2908 Captain Sams on Seabrook Island is a private, gated community, and this home includes access to the Amenity Card system for your stay — your access to the island's championship golf courses, resort-style pools, tennis and pickleball, dining, and the oceanfront Beach Club overlooking the Atlantic.
Beyond the club, you'll have complimentary access to over three miles of uncrowded, private beach — just a short bike ride from your door down the sleepy, moss-draped curve of Captain Sam's Road.
Freshly Remodeled - This home has just been completely renovated from top to bottom: a brand-new HVAC system and water heater, updated kitchen and redone bathrooms — nothing to worry about, just settle in and relax.
Room for Everyone - Sleeps up to 8 comfortably: • Master suite with king bed and en-suite bath • Second bedroom with king bed • Third bedroom with queen bed • Pullout full sofa bed • Rollaway twin bed for an extra guest
Made for Outdoor Living - Step out onto the oversized back deck — with seating for more than a dozen — perfect for long dinners, morning coffee, or evening cocktails under the palms. It's the kind of space that turns a quiet night in into the best part of the trip.
The Setting - Seabrook is a Lowcountry jewel of a community: quiet, private, secure, and unhurried, with historic Charleston just 20 miles away when you're ready for a day of exploring.

• ISLAND ACCESS & PARKING: As the island is a gated, private island, each vehicle entering the island will require a gate pass for island access. Seabrook Island Property Association (SIPOA) charges a gate pass fee per vehicle. This property has a strict limit of 3 vehicle passes. This $45 fee per vehicle applies to guests staying 1 night to 179 nights. Our rental agency is responsible for collecting the fee. Gate pass name information for each car is due 2 weeks prior to your arrival. For each pass, a driver's name must be provided, and drivers may be required to show a valid driver's license at the gate. Once a vehicle has a gate pass, any licensed driver can drive that vehicle. Gas-powered LSV vehicles count toward the 3-vehicle maximum.
• CHECK IN: For our guest's convenience, we offer a prompt, self-check-in process. Guests will directly check in at the property with a code for the keypad on the door. We, however, are always a phone call or text away. We offer as much assistance with the check-in process as needed. Our office is available to answer questions.

We are on the island, licensed, insured, and locally staffed. Our standard for your stay is what we would want and expect for our own vacation.
