We have been to Kiawah several times over the years and our favorite area is the Sparrow Pond Cottages. This particular unit was great for traveling with our adult children since it has 3 bedrooms each with its own bathroom. Well-equipped kitchen, convenient short walk/bike ride to beach.

So glad you enjoyed your time in our cottage. Hope to SEA you again real soon!
Our family of five (with three school-aged children) stayed here for a week. The size, layout and location of the property are top notch. The kitchen was stocked with essentials; the linens and towels provided were great. The beds were comfortable; and bathrooms worked well. I would love to stay here again bc the host was great. However, my family found it difficult to be truly comfortable due to the following: picture frames on every nightstand/end table, excessive amount of decorative pillows, bulky furniture overcrowding the main living area. If those issues were addressed, I would book here again in a heartbeat! Still a five star rating.

I’m glad you enjoyed our home. Our guests appreciate that it is truly our home and not just a rental unit. It is designed to help make everyone feel comfortable and not give a sterile hotel vibe. We hope to SEA you again in the near future!
My girlfriends and I loved the house. It was great to sit out on the large deck with a view of the lagoon. The house has everything you need. The furniture and beds were very comfortable. Communication with the owner was exceptional.

So glad you picked Our Happy Place for your girlfriend getaway. Next time you will have to come for a longer stay! Hope to SEA you soon!
This is an amazing little gem of a cottage on Kiawah.Warm and inviting , felt as if we were vacationing in "our family" cottage.Cottage is clean and well organized with comfortable furnishings especially couches and beds. Kitchen is well stocked with dishes, pots and pan, silverware, glasses etc.Many spices were available in the cabinets and fridge held condiments . This was amazing for we did not need to buy a whole bottle of ketchup or mustard for the little bit that we needed. Books and games , both for adults and children are in the cottage. There are 2 televisions. Extra towels were available including beach towels.Cottage comes with beach chairs, toys, umbrellas, and a beach wagon. Walk to the beach is about 10 minutes ( I'm a slow walker - bad hip) , pool about 6-7 minutes.Thank you to Sandy, the owner, for such detailed instructions and informations sent to us ahead of our departure for our vacation. Her communication with us was outstanding. We will for sure return !!!

Thank you for your kind words. We are happy you love our cottage as much as we do. Kiawah is a little slice of heaven and we love to share it! We hope to SEA you again very soon!
This was such a location for our visit! The property was very clean and orderly. The communication from the owner was superlative. We knew what to expect on arrival, including the fact that we should expect some spices and condiments, etc., to be available in the property should we decide to use them. We were provided suggestions of things to do. Even though we were familiar with the area, they still proved to useful and added to our enjoyment. The beds were comfortable, the linens were fresh, and everything was in working order if not brand new. The property is convenient to everything. Its layout is very conducive to a gathering. The main living space is roomy, well laid out, and comfortable. Thank you so much for a wonderful day with my kids and in-laws! We all have more stories to tell together now.

Kiawah is all about making memories! Hope to SEA you again soon!
A fantastic property surrounded by the best there is to offer; pool, beach, and scenic low country habitat. Sandy provides a very detailed and organized list of notes, check in/out process, and things to do in the area. Wonderfully located next to everything, including Cougar Point golf course.
We loved our stay at Sandra’s cottage in Kiawah. Quick walk to the beach, great, open layout and everything we needed to enjoy a perfect week. Clean, well maintained property - highly recommend!
Sandy was great to work with! She is very organized and communicates well. The house has everything we could need or want-even beach chairs, fully stocked kitchen, etc…
Our family of five had a great stay at this property for a summer week vacation. It’s in a great location on Kiawah island, short walks to a pool and the beach, and a short bike ride to the nature center and night heron park. We really enjoyed it!

So glad you enjoyed our home on beautiful Kiawah. We hope to SEA you again soo!
Awesome cottage right in the heart of Kiawah. Was a great location and absolutely perfect for a weekend away. Great communication with the owner and absolutely no issues.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay for the week. What a beautiful place to visit!
Sandy made sure we had everything we needed, from beach chairs to towels,... the property was perfect for our family of 6.
We highly recommend this property and location.
Everything we could have wanted was at the house and it enhanced our experience! We will definitely be back for another stay. Sandy was a great host!

About the host
Hosted by Sandy Meaders
Our family lives in Atlanta where my husband and I attended Atlanta high schools and colleges. Our three girls were all raised in Atlanta attending different colleges in Georgia.
Why they chose this property
Our family has grown up visiting this beautiful island and enjoy wonderful memories . My husband proposed to me at Mingo Point in 1987 and our oldest daughter was married at the PGA clubhouse in 2012. Our children continue to spend annual vacations and holidays at Kiawah with us and now we are enjoying it with our grandchildren!!
What makes this property unique
Sparrow Pond is the ideal location on Kiawah Island. You can hear the surf from our cottage and view the ocean in the distance. The fountains on the lagoon behind us are mesmerizing especially watching the sunrise. The culdesac is wonderful for having children play without the worry of traffic. The free (for our guests) pool is only a quick 5 minute walk and the beach is only a 7 minute walk. Very safe!
