Our home comfortably sleeps 8-10.  The Dipper also has a huge garage and intelligent TVs, ideal for lazy, rainy days. A six person golf cart is included by Beaufort Carts —by far the preferred means of Fripp transportation—with your stay, complimentary of charge. While we do not currently offer luxury cards, just a few steps away you’ll find a beautiful private pool, along with a tree home and jungle gym for the adventurous little ones, all of which are only available to the modest community of Sawgrass Bluff. Amenity cards are not required to access the beach, the grocery store, or the deli.

• To find the best value, change your trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked very early. Booking your rental property six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Often, property management companies supply Beaufort, SC area travel guide magazines that include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Beaufort, SC visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.
