Great house for our group!

The layout of the house was great for our group of three families of 5 adults and 5 children under the age of 10. The kitchen was very well stocked with pots, pans, utensils, and dishes! Unfortunately, we could not use the beautiful gas grill because the inside was caked with grease. Fantastic proximity to the beach! It's just a very short walk across the street. House was located very close to other Fripp amenities like pools, restaurants, playground, etc.

Great place to vacation!

We had a great time on our family vacation. The house is clean and well taken care of. The older kids loved fishing off the dock on the canal and the property is off the main road enough to feel so secluded and not have to worry about the kids getting out into the road on accident. Initially, we booked the property because a golf cart was included on the listing, however after durther clarification the golf cart was damaged by previous renters and was no longer available for guests (the listing was corrected after it was beought to their attention) nonetheless, we were able to rent a golf cart and had an amazing time. My family has been coming to Fripp since atleast the 70s and we thoroughly enjoyed the house this week. Especially the Carolina room! 10/10 would recommend.

Family Fun

Beautiful house in great location on Fripp Island; the center of everything Fripp has to offer. There are so many positives at this house and very few negatives so I will mention my only real complaint; cleanliness of the home. Not the fault of the owners at all, rather the cleaning staff failed to adequately clean the home before our check in time and when I reached out to the owner, she immediately responded and had the cleaning staff return to complete the basics they had not done. After that, all was great!! The house has plenty of room for everyone, the beds are comfortable, the location is awesome, the kitchen is well stocked with good pots/pans/knives and appliances, the additional fridge on the sunroom was great for drinks, etc. My husband, daughter and nephew all enjoyed the crabbing dock every single day while my other daughter and nephew and I enjoyed the beach and the pools everyday! My mother-in-law enjoyed relaxing and reading in the sunroom most of all. We spent most of our time while in the house in the sunroom. Such a great space and all the beautiful deer and birds are amazing to watch and they are so friendly they come right up to you! We got several great pics! Overall great vacation in a great house. I would prefer to have had the amenity cards and the golf cart included but nonetheless it was all well worth it!!

Wonderful family retreat

The only rental we've found on Fripp that we can't wait to return to again! Perfect for our family! Great location. Private. And the Carolina room was the perfect gathering place for our family. The TV wasn't on a single time the entire week! The only critique was that 2 of the showers were EXTREMELY tiny. Great place to enjoy family time!

Sea Glass

Unbelievable property and location on Fripp Island. The pictures do not do it justice and the owners are amazing with communication. We will book again.

About the host

Hosted by Callie Neal

Our family of four (all school teachers and two football coaches in Camden, Summerville, and Mount Pleasant) vacationed at Fripp for the first time in the summer of 2019. After one week at Fripp, we knew this was the place we wanted to bring our extended family to for vacations. We looked at several homes but think Sea Glass is the perfect beach home. We love the seclusion and privacy of our home but we are close to everything! We love catching crabs off our dock, making s'mores and telling stories around the fire pit, and watching the friendly deer and birds from our beautiful four seasons porch. Sea Glass is big enough for large extended families to gather and also have quiet privacy in the four large bedrooms. Since buying Sea Glass we have begun several renovations because we want this to be our vacation home for generations to come!

Why they chose this property

Sea Glass is not your cookie cutter beach house. In fact, it may be the only Victorian looking house on the island - but we like it like that! If you want a quiet place where you can "unplug" from the craziness of daily life and enjoy the beauty of nature and explore the tidal marshes Sea Glass is for you! If you enjoy tennis, pickleball or swimming in the pools or beach-you are walking distance away. Our home offers space to bring large families together and opportunities for everyone to enjoy what they like best about Fripp. Parking is never a problem with our large driveway and yard.

What makes this property unique

My favorite room in Sea Glass is the huge four seasons porch. It's the first place I go when I wake up every morning and the place I spend hours in before bedtime. Watching toddlers squeal "deer, deer, deer!" as the sun comes up and deer casually stop by for a visit is such a joy! Ending the day with a beautiful sunset and a fireside chat around the fire pit with s'mores and family and friends is what vacation is all about! In between sunrise and sunset is whatever your heart desires - fishing, golfing, walking, sandcastles, books, and naps. We hope you will enjoy the serenity of Sea Glass and Fripp as much as we do! :)
