A Nature Lover's Heaven: Savor elevated and broad vistas of the ever changing marsh and the wildlife that comes through it from a Fripp Island Treehouse. You'll see herons, egrets, osprey, eagles, woodstorks, jumping fish, fiddler crabs, deer and racoons too. And the modest birds that stop at the feeder on the deck are an absolute joy to watch: cardinals, nuthatches, blue birds, painted buntings, wrens, titmice, chickadees, hummingbirds & MORE. Sunrises and sunsets are beautiful and seeing the light shift and the tide ebb and flow through the marsh grass is a real treat. Watching boats head in and out of Old House Creek is fun too. Bring your binoculars and soak up the magic! Birdseed is supplied for the feeders.
The treehouse is bright, open and comfortable and really brings the outdoors in. Off of the 1st floor entryway there is a splendid bedroom suite (2 twin beds) with a deck overlooking the marsh and a full bath. Upstairs you'll find 2 bedrooms (each with a queen bed and adjustable base--great for reading in bed or day dreaming out the windows): the primary bedroom has a balcony overlooking the marsh and a full bathroom, and the 2nd bedroom has handsome vistas of the tree tops and a full bathroom adjacent to it.
The living room, dining room and kitchen are open and offer spectacular marsh vistas and space for you to appreciate one another or spread out. We know you will adore being immersed in the peacefulness of Fripp's marsh while only being a fast ride from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the island. There is outdoor seating on the decks and around the property for you to savor your morning coffee, an afternoon drink, or a good book.
A 4 seat golf cart is included and is a phenomenal way to discover the beauty of the island. The beach and all of the amenities of Fripp are only a short ride away and the Fiddler's crabbing dock is just down the street. You are also welcome to use the adult tandem bicycle and 2 cruiser bicycles (2 helmets supplied).

How to book the best Fripp Island vacation property experience:
Money saving strategies:
- To get the best vacation home within budget, we highly recommend reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite Beaufort, SC restaurants and activities.
- The earlier your group can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation rental up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
- Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a special rate.
- Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
- Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Beaufort, SC area visitor guide magazines which include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Beaufort, SC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.
How to pick the best rental home:
- Choose a designated group leader, choose your vacation week, and choose a max budget.
- Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Pets Considered, Golf Cart included - The Bird House has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
- Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible online. Otherwise, contact the host before you book your rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms.
- Is your group looking for special amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
- Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking
- If your group is bringing pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
Considerations for your stay:
- Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your phone.
- To make certain no damages are attributed to your stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. Speak to the host right away to report your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
- Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent lots of difficulties.
- Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
- Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
- Lock your rental property while you're out! Don't let thieves ruin your vacation.
- Re-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed everything on check-out day. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
- Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
- Did your group have a wonderful stay? Many rental managers make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
