This was a great beach house! The kitchen had everything we needed, and included both a K-cup brewer & drip coffee pot. The beds were comfortable and the house was very clean.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The space the house offered was great. Gave plenty of room for the kids to play. The location was well was able to easily access the entire island without difficulty. The screen in porch is amazing. Large and spacious very relaxing.However, this house could use a thorough deep clean. As long as you didn’t look too deep the surface appears clean. There was old food under the couch cushions, mildew under the sinks, mildew in the bathtub. Walking around, barefoot on the carpet resorted in very, very dirty feet.

Great communication

Leading up the the trip, I had several questions about parking/amenities/whatever else and the owner was very responsive and helpful. The house was exactly as listed and was in a great location. We rented golf carts for the weekend but we probably didn’t need to because we were walking distance to the main pool/beach area

Family Vacation

This property is as describe in the VRBO listing. The owner is very easy to communicate with and information was given when questions were ask. We even reported that the next visitor would need more propane for the gas grill for the following week and it was replaced the next day in case we decided to use it again. The back porch is wonderful and adds a second living room space.

617 Dolphin Road

Loved the screened in porch! I think a coded lock would work better but no issues during our stay. It said to start a load of laundry in the washer and dryer but I never could find the washer and dryer so the directions may need updating.

Can’t wait to come back!

We’ve been coming to Fripp for almost 10 years. We used to stay in a Davis Love Cottage but outgrew it last year. We found 617 Dolphin during our visit in 2023 and we could not be happier with this hidden treasure. So. Much. Room!!!! The back porch is a dream. Bill was as helpful as ever with my questions. And we have already made arrangements for next year before even leaving. Can’t wait to come back next year!!
