Ocean Creek

We were a group of 6 women who have been friends since High School and all turning 60 this year. We loved the house - plenty of space and the kitchen had everything we needed. It was a wonderful time for all!!

Great Week at Crabby Cottage

The house is wonderful. It has lots of room, and it had everything we needed and more. On a quiet street and the view over the marsh was perfect. We especially loved the screened porch and spent lots of time on it. The six-seater golf cart needs some TLC but it was so convenient for our little group. We took it out every evening looking for deer, which are all over the island. The kids called those times our "deer runs". Loved downstairs with all the games and seating area too. Very fun and relaxing. Our host was wonderful and quick to respond to my calls. One couldn't ask for a nicer host. We had such a wonderful stay, and we look forward to many more. I recommend this house highly.

Perfect Family Trip

This home was perfect for our group of 3 couples and one infant. The house was very clean, had plenty of space for everyone to spread out and have privacy, and the owners thought of everything to provide for the stay. The kitchen includes any and everything you can think of, beds are comfortable, back screen porch is a perfect spot to start and end the day, and the “basement” with games is the perfect hang out spot to send kids (in our case adult kids but we also thoroughly enjoyed it). The golf cart came in handy traveling to and from the beach and island amenities. There’s plenty of parking and the house is in a great location. We’ve stayed in several homes throughout the island and this has been our favorite so far. Management (Sam) was responsive and communicated quickly with any questions we had. We look forward to returning!

About the host

Hosted by Sam Graci, PMIC Gray Seas Property Management, LLC

I lived on Fripp Island for twenty years and a property manager for eight years. I want people to experience the beauty and tranquility of the island. I enjoy seeing guests, with their families having a good time. Seeing the children looking at the deer up close for the first time, along with their parents. The joy that Fripp Island brings to our families is very satisfying. They don't want to leave.

Why they chose this property

The Crabby Cottage is a very special house. The name of the house comes from the two young daughter's of the owner. They named it because of all the Fiddler Crabs that are around the house, which backs up to the marsh. From the screened porch you have a view of the Marsh and Ocean. The house is centrally located and is very close to the Cabana Club Pool, you could walk there if you are up to it. Take a golf cart ride to any place on the island in just a few minutes like the beach, other pools, beach club, or marina.

What makes this property unique

This house is very deceiving from the out side. It is 2900 square feet in side. The three bedrooms are very large, that sleep 10 people. An open area for the kitchen, with a counter that will seat 6 people and a large living room. It has a screen porch the full length of the back of the house. There is a game room down stairs with games for the big kids (dads), along with the younger kids. There have been many great competition games among the guests.
