Beautiful views but not comfortable or clean

I loved the views in this home! That’s what sold us on it, but the sofas sit very low and they aren’t comfortable. There is one comfy chair, however, that we all just took turns using. The home was not clean upon arrival, and at first we just noticed sand on the floor in several rooms. Vacasa sent me a text shortly after we arrived asking me to rate the cleanliness, and I gave it a 4 out of 5 due to the sand. On the second day, we found old chicken in the fridge, the dishwasher was full of dishes, the shower in the master bath doesn’t drain properly, the mat in front of the sink was dirty, the dining room chairs were stained, and the master closet is so humid that it left our clothes damp. There is a balcony off the master bedroom that provided the most gorgeous views, but it’s in need of repair and we didn’t feel safe standing on it as it seems to be coming off the house. The beds were comfortable and the layout of the house is great. We did see a roach crawling on the blanket in the master bedroom. It’s a beautiful home, but needs some updating and repairs. When compared to other homes on the same street, it’s clear that the landscaping and exterior maintenance has not been a priority. The deck off the living room and the porch off the kitchen we used a good bit. We had to take a broom and clean off all the spiders and webs however. Yes it’s nature and we’re on an island, but no cleaning is done outside at all. We were going to use the grill one night, but it was filthy and hasn’t been cleaned since the last use. This home needs a deep cleaning, some repairs, maintenance, and general upkeep before being rented again.

this porch.

Good lord. The layout of this house is excellent. Was very hard to tell from photos but the master is on it’s own wing while the doubles and queen are on another wing. Huge windows in the living room host an incredible view of the marsh. The porch is amazing-found ourselves using it more than any other room of the house. Saw dolphins late in the afternoon-tons of egrets and herons. Minor problems but Vacasa was quick to help. Would definitely rent this place again.

Gorgeous view & an efficient elegant home

We were there on a writing retreat, the quiet calm of the marsh view was mesmeric and conducive to writing. The beach was a short walk, the dozens of egrets on the tree enroute were a beautiful sight and we recorded many bird sounds on Merlin. The house itself was seamlessly hospitable in every respect. All of us enjoyed it. Thank you!

Wonderful Home but needs some maintenance

Beautiful location on the marsh with large windows to enjoy. Check in was delayed twice (late notification), AC was broken for 1st evening and most of 2nd day (93 degree temps). Inside was nice and clean but outside (front and back) could definitely have done with a good clean.

Serene Luxury

We came for quiet serenity for a writers retreat. The house was beautiful, well equipped for all our needs and more. The scenery from the great room was mesmeric. We did not use the sunroom as it was chilly but I think in the spring summer and fall that would be a lovely place to hangout with the white wicker and even a table for tea. Overall we would definitely recommend this house for a family retreat or a friends vacay. We loved it!!!

A mom with three teens doing a working vacation. This location had all the space we needed. I only gave it a 4 star review because the hot water was not working at a 100%. If you are wanting to know if it looks like the pics. NO, it looks better! We will be back.

The house was dirty and moldy.

Vrbo was not much help in resolving the issues. They refer you to Vacassa. Vacassa does not answer the phone in the US, you get someone in a 3rd world county cannot make a decision. I would avoid Vacassa properties.

Peaceful and lovely stay

This home provided exactly the environment we wanted for our girls’ getaway. The views out on the back porch and the screened-in porch were amazing and so incredibly peaceful. We loved sitting out there with our coffee or glass of wine and visiting. The area was beautiful and very safe. We did NOT mind the 40 minute drive into Charleston at all. I would warn any future guests that if you are susceptible to mosquitoes you’ll want to bring some bug spray because they or the “noseeums” were pretty brutal and I was eaten up by the end of the stay. But I didn’t bring bug spray and knowing that we were staying on a marsh, I should have. That was the only downside. The communication and instructions made it all very easy. Would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful marsh views and wonderful family space

Wonderful stay. Would highly recommend. Used to care only about the beach but now I realize a waterfront marsh/river view is even better. The sights and sounds of wildlife, including dolphins passing through daily, along with the every changing landscape of marsh tides, make every waking moment in the home an enjoyable one. Screen in porch and spacious open deck are key, and wall to wall windows are key. The home is very comfortable and up to date enough, though those looking for totally upscale and brand new may be slightly disappointed. Hardwood in main area is old, but I don't look at that as a problem--after all, people are coming in from the beach and so new pristine flooring wouldn't make much sense. However, bedrooms and bathrooms were very up to date and master bathroom especially new, expansive and well appointed--with view of marsh to boot! I felt like it was just right. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking and dining. Even had an electric tea kettle. Also loved the access to extra boogie boards and carts and the outdoor water source to shower off. We had already purchased a pull cart with hitch to bike our stuff to the beach, but perhaps the carts they provided would have worked for that. Only about a 5 min ride to the boardwalk. Also location has easy access to shaded bike/walking trails, but even running along the neighborhood roads was pleasant with all the trees, lagoons, and wildlife. Check out the Marsh View Tower very nearby and the trails that extend from there.

Kiawah 60th birthday

My wife and her identical twin turned 60, and their sister also shared the same birthday. We all stayed in the house on the very interesting marsh side on the perfect spot. Things are always changing with the tide in and dolphins feeding, and the tide out and other critters eating. Days were filled with riding bikes on the shaded bike path out to the ocean course or the other way to Freshfields. Or biking directly across the island to the most perfect beach access. Nights included cooking in or going for dinner and drinks in Charleston, one of the best cities in the country! Utopia.
