EMBRACE the nostalgia of yesterdays as we delight in sharing our acquired beach bungalow. This home has never been a rental in the past. It was a cherished home for 20 years to a enchanting owner. It would take too long to share how this purchase took place during a pandemic but it was a Godwink moment.

This gated community is Fripp Island & we have traveled here off & on since 1996. Once you get Fripp between your toes it is hard to shake it off. The allure is hard to describe adequately. It is family friendly with the natural wildlife sharing the space simultaneously and our bungalow is located in a peaceful and appealing piece of this island.

The relaxing air immerses you on the back deck as the roar of the sea can often times be heard in the distance. Birds chirp their songs as they state they are close by. And an occasional alligator can be seen guarding the lagoon. Golfers come & go on the visible green giving an occasional wave as they concentrate on their strokes. This is our Island Psalms Cottage.

Island Psalms is located 3 rows of homes from the beach but only 2 streets over. So only a 1/4 of a mile from our favorite go to beach entry 1B. We are located on the 6th green of the Ocean Point Golf course. The view is phenomenal and can be rather entertaining. Finding balls in the back yard is like a yearlong Easter egg hunt. We also have a view of the lagoon which is home to numerous alligators & other wildlife habitats. The island is a natural wildlife sanctuary so any feeding or tantalizing the inhabitants is prohibited.

Our bungalow has shaker siding which gives it an upper New England feel with a low country flair. We have 17 steps to the main door, (FYI) to a one level of living space. Coming into the entry is welcoming to enter and see through the big picture windows to view straight out to the golf course. The bungalow will sleep 9 people in beds. We have added Austin Air filters which are made in USA to our bungalow to help with virus control. Recently installed solid wood floor has been added to all the bedrooms Fall of 2022. This is much better for any allergies.

The Master bedroom has a queen size bed, in suite bathroom and ample closet space. The bathroom has double sinks, with a private potty room & tub/shower combination. The pocket door in the sink room opens up to a sleeping porch with a day bed & pull out trundle. It also has a kid’s table & chairs with games. The T.V. in that room is connected to a blue ray DVD player. This room has tons of windows to appreciate the view, but curtains can be drawn for privacy.

The family room has vaulted ceilings with a huge T.V., books and games. This room opens to newly revitalized deck for your enjoyment. Be considerate with the noise as the golfers do their putting. For your enjoyment, the roar of the ocean can often be heard as you savor the deck.

During our ownership, a brand NEW HVAC was installed. The well outfitted kitchen has had all NEW appliances installed except the dishwasher since ownership. We have a Whirlpool refrigerator, Kitchenaid microwave over oven, & a Frigidaire induction cooktop. The correct cookware is supplied but feel complimentary to bring your own, just know induction has special requirements. Adequate space is supplied to store your food. A full size washer & dryer is also included with start up washing supplies.

Around the corner is 2 more bedrooms and a bath. A twin bed is in a smaller room with a kid’s desk for remote learning and the printer. Wi-Fi is supplied.

The front bedroom has a king bed and a work station for more remote working or learning. The back bedroom has a queen bed with a view of the golf course. There is a Pack n’ Play, high chair & booster seat stored in this closet for the little ones. The hall bath has a tub/shower combination and linen closet with beach towels supplied.
At the end of this hall is the steps to the ground level. Several outdoor games, beach chairs, rolling cart, & beach umbrellas are stored here for your convenience. In the open space are 6 cruiser bicycles, water rafts & a modest kayak for your enjoyment. An umbrella stroller is also available for the evening walks. Also in this area is a ping pong table for those competitive spirits. Corn hole & a ring toss game can be taken into the yard for enjoyment. A tandem double garage is included in this space. Going out to the back yard from this area is a gas Char-Broil Grille under the back deck on its newly constructed platform for that Grille Master that you brought along.

Beaufort, SC rental booking tips:

Finding the best rental value:

• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are booked early. Booking your rental home up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Booking in the Spring or Fall is a good way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Beaufort, SC area visitors guides which include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Choose a group leader, select your trip dates, and select a budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. ISLAND PSALMS…. A serene cottage with-Golf Cart and Amenity Cards. has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, reach out to the host before you reserve your rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your group is bringing pets, search for a rental that allows animals. Get details on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific attraction? Use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let crooks ruin your vacation.
• To make certain that damages aren't linked to your family's visit, inspect for any problem areas when you arrive. text the property manager immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.

• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Double-check the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear about it.
