This was a clean, pet friendly condo with a 5 minute walking distance to the beach and access to a pool. It was well equipped with amenities and even a small wagon to take your supplies to the beach. We enjoyed our vacation here.

We are glad you enjoyed your vacation at this Sparrow Pond Cottage. Future guests please note - we do not provide a beach wagon. It was left by prior guests. (our cleaning crew can't show up each week with a beach wagon just in case).

Communication with the property manager was great. There was a terrible odor coming from the garbage disposal when I first arrived. She sent somebody out. Problem resolved! Evidently the renters before me had prepared seafood. Everything else was extremely clean. The only other big worry I had was underneath the house where you must park. It was very dark and in order to get any lights turned on you have to walk well into the dark carport to find a wall switch. This was a great concern to me and I hope that this matter is quickly resolved as well. Thank you!

Great area and location

We had a great time at your cottage! The check in process was so easy and you provided clear instructions/ directions for anything we would need while staying there. The cottage was as described and a nice easy walk to the beach along the bike trail. The beach was awesome- very family friendly and not crowded. Had a wonderful week and would definitely stay again! Thank you for sharing your cottage with us- and our maltipoo!

Wonderful place to stay

My husband and I were extremely happy with this rental. It’s in a wonderful location, close to the beach, nice and quiet. Exceedingly clean and spacious with comfortable furniture. My husband loved the proximity to Cougar Point Golf Course, he walked over every day to practice his putting and chipping. A small issue with a slow bathroom drain was resolved immediately. Susie was wonderful to work with and is on top of everything. Always appreciate dog friendly rentals. Great three weeks all around!

Great place for a family vacation!

We were very pleased with this property! The cottage was as clean as any that we have stayed in, which is always a concern when properties allow dogs. The TV room served as a very comfortable 4th bedroom for us. The outdoor set up made it easy to comply with the "bikes out of sight" rule. We will definitely try to book this cottage again when we return to Kiawah.

About the host

Hosted by Kiawah By Owner - Susie Oringel

Host profile image
We purchased our cottage on Kiawah Island in summer of 2005, and I began renting it on VRBO during the weeks we were not able to enjoy Kiawah ourselves. In 2007, a friend asked me if I would help her rent her villa also. Since I loved helping people plan their vacations in the area, I obtained my South Carolina Property Manager's License and began a business - Kiawah By Owner. I now help rent more than 25 other properties on Kiawah Island in addition to our cottage. I look forward to helping you plan your vacation - Susie Oringel
