This is a fantastic home, tastefully decorated , very cozy and laid out well with a big kitchen with views of the ocean, which is only steps away via a charming boardwalk. The location is great because itâs also close to Freshfields which is the only spot in Kiawah to get groceries and amenities. Not having been here before, we didnât realize the island is a huge resort of homes and golf clubs. We played tennis daily at the nearby Roy Barth Club and biked daily with our three teen kids. One day we biked 15 miles and didnât even realize we had done that many miles because of the gorgeous paths. The island is totally pristine. Kids loved seeing alligators and herons and ibises. We dined at the Atlantic Grill, highly recommend going there for lunch at the Ryder Bar with gorgeous views of the 18th hole and the ocean behind it. Kiawah is a special gated utopia, and during Covid, it was a safe retreat with very few people and tons of nature.
The only downside of the house was a mouse was also a guest- and munched on a muffin and cookie that we left overnight on the counter, through the plastic. We notified the management and they came immediately to seal off any holes and gave us some extra replacements. It didnât bother us at all. Weâre from NYC.
