This home is in a quiet neighborhood, not real far from the beach. For those with back or knee problems it might not be an easy trek. One of our group uses a portable respirator and she couldn't walk to the beach. But it's a very short drive. The pool was wonderful!! I preferred the pool anyway. We had 6 in this house. While the sleeping arrangements were plentiful, the living room was a little tight when up moving around. Great patio with plenty of seating. I was a bit put off when another woman walking her dog walked right up thru our yard, around the pool and they the back yard. Don't know if it was a renter or resident. But, I questioned her and asked her not to do that because my little dog was out there with me. Another time a bigger dog for loose from an older woman and ran into our yard. My little dog ran it off. It would be great if the yard could have a fence of some type around the pool for safety and more privacy. I loved that they accepted pets. My little Malchi, Bella, is 1y.o and never been away from me. It was my first experience vacationing with a pet and we had a blast. It was 5 girls with my husband and pup.
Also, I feel the need to mention the ant problem on the patio. They were swarming. We brought solar flame lanterns and sat one on the patio table in the afternoon to charge, by evening, I turned it over to switch it on and the underside filled with and and eggs. When I looked around they were all over the patio, on the furniture and pool towels. It may have been an isolated incident. Afterwards, they weren't so bad, but quite a few.
All in all, our stay was quite nice, my husband and I rented electric 3 wheel bikes and rode on the beach. I highly recommend Hilton Head E-Bikes. We did this for 2 days, on the beach, thru the nature preserve, around all the bike paths, speed at a tiki bar for drinks and lunch. We're both 60, have had back surgeries and don't walk a lot. These bikes were awesome!!
The neighborhood is extremely dark at night. I recommend taking a flashlight of your walking at night.
The Sea Pines Beach Club was great also, we had drinks and lunch. Thank you so much for the wonderful accommodations.
