We absolutely loved the Tree House! Our large family stayed there with plenty of room! We loved how close the beach was to.the house. The house is well laid out so that everyone could be in their own "corner" of the house if they wanted. The screened in porch was fanrastic and Alina was great to work with! Thank you for all the great memories our family was able to make!

Exceeded all our expectations

We stayed for a week over Easter break and felt so at home in this cozy cottage. We biked to night heron park and fresh fields and it is so close to the beach! We couldn’t have asked for anything more out of this property for our family of 6 to enjoy our vacation. Thank you and we definitely plan to stay here again!

Perfect stay for multiple families

We had a great stay in kiawah and this was the perfect house for our group -- my family of 5 (2 toddlers and a newborn) and both sets of grandparents (soon 6 adults in total). There was plenty of space for everyone and a few different sitting areas to choose from. The kitchen was really well stocked which was helpful for cooking dinners at night. It was in a great location and easy to walk to the beach and pool. I would definitely recommend staying here.

About the host

Hosted by Alina Bartlett

Host profile image
We are Richard and Alina Bartlett, the owners of 1013 Sparrow Pond Cottage. Both of our children learned to ride bikes, roller blade, fishing and crabbing in Kiawah. Every summer we host our extended family from Florida and every Thanksgiving we share the good times with those from Canada. We wish every one of our guests lasting and unforgettable memories.

Why they chose this property

During our 10th wedding anniversary we visited Kiawah, a Real Estate Agent and the rest is history. We chose this Barrier Island because of its natural beauty, relaxed atmosphere, miles of bike paths, and shallow safe beach, a must with small children.

What makes this property unique

1013 Sparrow Pond is located in the area we like to call “historic Kiawah” or the West End of the island. It is close to the Main Gate and easy access to Freshfields Village. We are a few minutes’ walk to both the neighborhood pool and the beach. A short bike ride on the beach will take you to the West End of the island where the river meets the sea and where you can experience haunting sunsets and plenty of marine life. The tidal pools are great fun for the young ones. We are also a short walking distance from the Cougar Point Golf Course and the West End Tennis Center.
