Ideal Location Mid Island, Close to the Beach, with a Dock and Golf Cart
A appealing and completely refurnished third row beach home for you to make your vacation home with family and friends. Two mins. by golf cart from Fripp Island's beach, which is over 3 1/2 miles of pristine, uncrowded, white sandy bliss. 3 bedroom/3 bathroom, the Carolina Girl sleeps 8 and includes a shared dock on a tidal creek with direct access to the ocean. It is a dream for crabbing, boating, and paddling.
Set aside your daily routine and savor life the Fripp Island way. Cruise around on the Carolina Girl’s golf cart to check out the sights on the island. Listen to the ocean waves while taking in the gorgeous view of the creek from the screened-in back porch. Fripp Island is about 3000 acres of natural wonder which has been designated as a Wildlife Sanctuary. You will see plenty of alligators, deer, and birds. And Fripp is only a short trip from Beaufort, SC and Savannah, GA.
Your mood will brighten as you enter the home and take in its light, beachy décor. As you walk by the bar and wine cooler, you will be greeted with a striking view of the canal. The kitchen appliances are all stainless, and the kitchen is well supplied with dishes, silverware, and all the amenities of home. The main living area is an open concept that accepts you to gather for dinner or movies.
The home has one bedroom on the main living floor which holds a queen size bed and has a full bathroom. The master bedroom (king size bed) and second bedroom (queen size bed and bunk beds) are upstairs, both with ensuite bathrooms. All bedrooms come with Roku TV (access to streaming services and complimentary TV). There is a gas grille available for you to “put the sear on” your preferred protein, whether that be steak or fresh seafood. The screened-in back deck overlooking the canal is a constant favorite. Savor your morning coffee or your evening drink on the porch while listening to the ocean waves and feeling the ocean breeze.
The home sits way back from the road after a long driveway, and behind a stand of 50 foot tall pines and palm trees. So, there is privacy from the road, and there is plenty of space for parking up to 4 cars.
The home is centrally located on the island, so just a short distance to many of the most trendy resort conveniences, if you choose at your option to purchase the resort’s club cards that will provide you with access to these. The Carolina Girl is a 3 min. golf cart ride to the Cabana Club (with its pools and wet bar), and Camp Fripp. We are also close to the Bonito Boathouse restaurant. The 15th hole of the Ocean Creek golf course is right at the end of the driveway, with the Ocean Creek clubhouse just a short walk. Finally, the family playground, which also has basketball and volleyball courts, is within walking distance for even the youngest of family members.

Tips and Tricks to get the perfect rental experience:
When to book a Beaufort, SC rental home & When to go:
- Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
- Booking your Beaufort, SC vacation rental in the Fall or Spring is our best tip for saving money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
- Some hosts offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
- Booking websites typically offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
- Find a copy of your local Beaufort, SC visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines contain coupons for local accommodations and attractions.
Finding the best vacation home in Fripp Island:
- Choose a designated group leader, choose your vacation week, and select a spending budget.
- Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Carolina Girl Fripp Island has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
- Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before you book the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
- Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or charges may be applied to your agreement.
- If there's a specific Beaufort, SC beach you love, keep an eye out for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
- Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

- Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
- Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to make sure you have not leave anything behind. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
- Record a video to document the condition of the property.
- Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on great reviews to propel future reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation home. Please be objective.
