This was our ninth winter at Seabrook Island and our eighth stay at 550 Tarpon Pond. Once again, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves in this comfortable and attractively decorated cottage. The 2 of us and our dog were excited to spend 9 weeks in our “home away from home”. The cottage is located on the corner of a small cul-de-sac with another cottage behind it and a cottage on one side of it. The screened porch is a good size with a few adirondack chairs and a table and chairs for 6. The refrigerator, washer and dryer are just 1 year old. We used the new large gas grill on the front porch a lot. Most everything we needed was provided. The kitchen was well equipped and the beds were comfortable. There were bikes to ride. There are 3 television sets. Only 2 have cable. The other one is only for playing games or watching movies. There is a new air conditioning/heating unit which runs very quietly. The beach is about a 10 minute bike ride from the cottage. On many days at the cottage, you can hear the waves crashing at the beach. The island is a great place to bring your dog to as it's a “dog friendly” island. We enjoyed seeing the deer and other wildlife wandering past the cottage and dolphins at the beach. The ladies at Coastal Getaways are quick to answer questions and to provide help when needed. The owners are ready and willing to make their home inviting. We had a wonderful time and are looking forward to returning next winter.

This house had just about everything we could have needed! The owners thought of everything; tv’s in every room, bicycles, beach chairs, gas grill (no brush to clean it though), coffee maker with keurig, liquid soap, and plenty of towels! The agency was wonderfully responsive when I informed them that I had left a couple of things behind! My only note for families with older adults…the main dining area in the house is a “high top” table with stools w/o backs. The dining table/chairs is outside on the screened in porch and it was too hot to eat outside!

We had a great stay- thank you! Clean cottage, good location, had everything we needed! There were actually 4 adult bikes for our use (listing said 2) which was a nice surprise!

Loved our stay, the place was roomy for our small family, well stocked with what we needed, and in a very pleasant neighborhood. Appreciated the bikes and the beach chairs, plenty for all of us! Easy bike ride to the beach and pool. Can't wait to come back!

We enjoyed staying at 550 Tarpon Pond. It was a great location, nicely decorated, clean, and well-organized, and we would stay there again.
