Summary:
Carolina Cottage
The Space:
Spend balmy days outside swimming in the screened backyard pool, barbecuing at the lagoon's edge, or gathering around the outdoor firepit at this fantastic, two-story home. Make your Hilton Head escape one to remember. This cottage is the perfect place for a family getaway, with its secluded location that's still just a short drive or bike ride from shops, restaurants, and recreational activities. The property is set within easy access of Harbour Town's businesses and golf courses, as well as the island's white, sandy beaches. On this quiet street, the tropical flora and fauna of the local landscaping provide gorgeous curb appeal. The Sea Pines Racquet Club and its tennis court are within walking distance of the property, as is the PGA Golf Course.
As you arrive, you'll be greeted by high-speed WiFi with a mesh router and two desk areas to use if you plan to work from home. You'll find oak hardwood flooring throughout the cottage and a spacious living area featuring overstuffed chairs, a 75-inch TV with a sound bar, and a DVD player for movie nights. The elegant kitchen is separated from the living room by an island breakfast bar, offering polished stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, and a wet bar.
Enjoy closet organizers in the two downstairs bedrooms and beautifully updated bathrooms. Other amenities include a washer/dryer.

This was a great place to walk over to Harbour Town Cafe for coffee and breakfast, dinner at the Quarter Deck or a drink or music for the kids, and an easy bike ride over to Beach Club.
This place was great for a big family, fantastic pool, and lots of seating and big island for kids and parents to share meals and visit.

Wonderful vacation home!
Carolina Cottage is a wonderful vacation home! It had everything we wanted - comfortable beds, nice cookware, walk-in shower. It was just as beautiful as the pictures. It was perfect for an extended family vacation. Though not advertised as handicap accessible, it worked out well for our grandson in a wheelchair.

Great house
There were lack of towels, coffee cups and silverware when you eat in but the house made up for it. The open concept was great as well and the HUGE LANAI.

A great family vacation
My family loved our stay at the Carolina Cottage. The house was even nicer than the photos and had every amenity you could want. Very spacious, beautifully decorated and in a great location. We enjoyed the screened in pool, the large open kitchen, the fire pit and relaxing in the chairs overlooking the lagoon. We wish we could have stayed longer.
