PET FRIENDLY- NOW WITH AMAZON FIRE STICK AND NETFLIX- AVAILABLE TODAY

The description of this home says that "all fees are included". I specifically asked the owner if we would be able to golf or eat at the restaurants. He said yes. When we got there, there were no amenity cards available for us. After trying to reach the owner he said we should have read the contract closer. It does state in the rental agreement that amenity cards are not included. But when I first started the process it took him two weeks to email the rental agreement which gave me exactly five days to mail it and the check back to him. We were rushed. I have pictures of the physical condition of the home. There was, honest to heaven, 3 inches of black dust/dirt on the cieling fans. There were dead cockroaches everywhere and several live ones. There was mold and pounds of pine needles everywhere on the walkways, steps, porches, and windows. He said he would refund $ lies. I HAVE PROOF OF EVERYTHING IN THIS REVIEW. Do not rent this home. He is not a member of the POA. It is advertised there are bikes. There are, but the chains are rusted and seized. The golf cart is the only decent thing about this rental. We are LONG time VRBO users and this is our first bad review.

Our experience at Fripp for the past 4 years was very comfortable. The house is as advertised and the property is well kept. The owner is very good about fixing any problem that did arise. The house is clean and well-maintained.I would recommend this vacation place to everyone. There is plenty to do on the Island and you are only a 10 minute walk from the beach. I've played the two golf courses and found them very challanging. It;s a great place for a getaway vacation!

Where to begin, we stayed for 5 nights 7/17 thru 7/21/2010. The cottage is in need of repair very badly. If there had been somewhere else to stay, we would have let the owner keep the money and went elsewhere. The shower in the master bath wouldn't drain correctly, water well over your ankles before you finished. The shower curtain had nasty mildew all over it. The ceiling in the master bath (upstairs) was also mildewed. There were NO WASHCLOTHS in the entire cottage. Owner told us to "make do" for the first night and he "guaranteed" us we'd have some before noon the next day "if he had to bring them out himself". He did bring them around 5 pm the next day after yet ANOTHER phone call to him. The cottage was nasty-the carpets are stained and there was dust over an inch deep on the smoke alarm for the upstairs bedroom (the one for the downstairs bedrooms was hanging from the ceiling by wires). The dishwasher was standing full of water and didn't work (the smell was horrible), there was a bucket of nasty, stinky water under the garbage disposal under the sink (not sure why-sink leaking??) There was a plumbers card on the "desk" with a note on it stating he'd be back in a few days to begin the work??? The entire house needed a good renovation and painting, both inside and out. There were holes in the wall around the tub in the left bedroom where it has been replaced and no trim work put around it. The kitchen was supposed to be "fully stocked" with pots/pans but we were afraid to use any of them due to their appearance/condition. The outside was no better as the trim work of the house is in bad need of cleaning/painting. To top it all off, our last full day there we saw roaches-the 2 inch long variety no doubt. As I said before, I would not recommend this cottage to anyone. Fripp Island is one of the greatest places I have visited on a beach vacation, please don't let this review stop you from going there. If we could have moved to one of the other cottages that are well kept, like most on the island appear to be, everything would have been perfect. This cottage too can be made to be great, but will require some serious remodeling before I would stay there again. We usually vacation at the Gulf of Mexico but were afraid of the oil and booked this trip instead. We really wish the cottage had been better, it would have made this a vacation to remember for all the RIGHT reasons instead of the horrible cottage we stayed in!

My family stayed here July 3-10, 2010! We have stayed in many houses on Fripp and this is the first and only house that has an air conditioner that actually cools the house! The location is perfect..very easy to get to the beach and pools..and very convenient with the included golf cart. The house and furnishings were very comfortable and clean. One very nice touch that we loved, was there are several paintings of Fripp Island that a relative of the owners had painted many years ago...you could just feel the family's love of the island! We were so happy with this house that we immediately booked for the summer of 2011!

My family loved the property which was a perfect location for any island activity. We stayed during the Memorial Holiday and we all had a great time and hope to use the cottage again in the future. Miller/Turner Family
