Pet Friendly Beach Bungalow - Short Walk to Gorgeous Beach, Everything you need!

Night Heron in Sea Pines is a free standing home shaded by towering Long Needle and Loblolly Pines. All landscaping is natural with fan-like Saw Palmettos, Cabbage Palms, and native grasses. Ancient Live Oaks draped with a profusion of Spanish moss serve to add both grandeur and privacy to your surroundings. The home has lots of windows making a bright interior but also make the forest canopy and wildlife a key element of the décor. One bedroom and convertible queen sofa (sleeps 4) One Full Bath, Washer/Dryer, and Hi-Definition Cable TV with High Speed Wi-Fi Internet. One large wrap around porch to enjoy the beautiful surrounding landscape. This is a meticulously cared for home that has just undergone several major improvements. It’s a place where you can relax, put your feet and up, and enjoy. Your vacation will also come at a reasonable cost.

Like the Forest Preserve? You'll love Night Heron: Night Heron was one of the first communities to be developed at Sea Pines. Shortly after it was established the founders decided to set aside a vast portion of the resort as a forest preserve. The area they selected was adjacent to Night Heron and as a result the homes here are now virtually part of the 605-acre Sea Pines Forest Preserve. The density of trees and shrubbery also provide natural air conditioning on those hot summer days. You’ll feel as one with nature as you enjoy a beverage on the beautiful wrap around porch and watch the dappled sun fade into darkness, while listening to the teeming wildlife in your back yard lagoon. There is also a private, fresh-water, community swimming pool within a hundred yards of the front door.

Golf: Sea Pines Golf is Legendary: Hilton Head Island is ten miles long and boasts twenty-nine golf courses. Among this dazzling array of choices, The Sea Pines Resort is the most prestigious and well known. It is home to the world famous “Harbourtown Golf Links”, rated #1 in South Carolina, and among the nation’s top 100. Harbourtown, with its famous lighthouse towering over the eighteenth green, has hosted the Heritage Golf Tournament for the past 36 years. A challenge for the likes of Nicklaus, Palmer, and Norman it is but one of three exceptional courses within the resort. You can also experience the new “Heron Point” redesign by Pete Dye with its challenging greens, and emphasis on strategy. The Sea Pines “Ocean Course" is also a favorite of residents and visitors alike. As a guest at “Just Imagine” you’ll be able to make advance reservations to play any, or all three, of the Sea Pines courses.

Another great vacay in Sea Pines
This was our third visit to a Night Heron property in Sea Pines. As always, it provided a very family friendly location that's close to everything you'd need for a relaxing, beach trip. The property is well kept and check-in/communication with property manager was smooth. Sea Pines is beautiful, and to my mind, the best location in HH. Definitely recommend.

This cottage has been improved since my first stay last year. It has been refreshed (paint, flooring, deck cleaned, new deck furniture, etc.). The property managers have done a super job with this property.

Highly Recommend!
Great property and perfect for the 2 of us and our dog. This place had everything we needed, pool was close and the beach path was right across the street which was a nice surprise. The bungalow was tucked away from the street within the woods which was so cool! If interested in Coligny, would recommend renting bikes, but it was only a 10-15 ride and you could take the path which made it a nice ride. The listing did not include pictures of the bathroom, but it was somewhat updated and had plenty of space to get ready. Overall, the property was very clean, great location, and very fun. Would stay again for our next trip. Thank you!

Overall pleasant experience but could use a deep clean
Our stay at the cottage at Night Heron was overall a pleasant one. It’s a great location in Sea Pines (~10 min walk to the beach). It’s small but perfect for a couple. However, it could use with a deep clean. Everything appears clean at first glance but a few surfaces were sticky and there were dead ants strewn throughout the living room and kitchen.

SLUMMING IN PARADISE
The property is about 1/2 mile walk to the beach. We were greeted with roaches and ants, owner had the place treated but, it was bad. The place could have been adorable but, it was just plain run down. There was no comfortable place to sit. Things are broken and not fixed. We were very disappointed and strongly recommend you book elsewhere. We gave it 2 stars for location.

Great location, just okay stay
This is my favorite area to stay in Hilton Head. This particular condo needs a deep clean. I contemplated having cleaners come back but decided against because it needs a lot of attention. “Palmetto Beetles” or cockroaches were in the shower and kitchen from time to time. The couch is pretty nasty and needs a deep clean. The kitchen is outdated and refrigerator did take about 48 hours to re-cool my food. In the home manual I was aware of the refrigerator and beetle situation. However, I didn’t feel comfortable with how room temperature my food was getting. Also, in the manual the owners state the beetles are everywhere and that they are not cockroaches. I’ve been going to Hilton Head for 20 years and staying in this same area without ever seeing one before. Upon further investigation, they are in fact cockroaches. I would say this place has a bit of an infestation.

In bad need of an update
The first thing I noticed when walking into the rental was the musty smell. The second was how outdated everything was. It doesn’t look like it’s had any updates to it in 15 years or more. The couch was terribly worn and uncomfortable. The bed was worn out and the carpet in the bedroom was so old and didn’t feel clean. The house is in desperate need of a deep clean as well. There was an incredible amount of dust on the chandelier over the table and on all the artificial flowers. It’s a cute space and really just needs some attention. It’s in a great location, close to restaurants, shops, and a short walk to the beach. It’s very quiet in Night Heron and the pool was a nice touch. The owners were very quick at responding to my questions I had. We had a nice vacation but it could have been made a lot better if the place was cleaner (our clothes even smelled of must when we got home) and had more comfortable furniture. Sea Pines itself is beautiful!

Disappointing
We are finding that the yurt properties on night heron are going down hill on their upkeep. We have stayed in several 1 bedroom yurts and property 13 was in a sorry state. The flooring in the kitchen area is coming up, the couch is filthy and very uncomfortable. The rugs need to be replaced, If it were my property i would be embarrassed to rent it out. We love hilton head but we will be looking elsewhere for rentals.

Best of both worlds
I read a review that said they felt like they were in the jungle, not the beach. That is the whole point of Night Heron! The trees, the lagoons, the wildlife, it feels like you are part of nature, in a home, and not in a tourist destination or resort (even though it's both). You can get places like that but not that are also a five minute walk to the beach and so reasonable in price. Mind you, this bungalow is old and not in pristine condition, it has a few cosmetic issues and the floor in the bathroom shows where there was water at some point, and so forth, but it's clean and safe, just cosmetic. I told the property manager a light didn't work and the handyman was there the next day. A ceiling fan is stuck on low but I imagine that is a bigger fix and at least it was spinning! There was a fan beneath the bed that served me just fine. Just what I was looking for!

The property is in a very nice area close to beach but not on the beach. The bungalow was very cute and cozy. I hope the owners change the bed mattress is was very uncomfortable, lumpy, and the bed sheets kept coming off and there was no mattress cover very unsanitary. The couch needs cleaning it smelled and felt dirty. The bungalow had roaches. It was not infested but enough that we shook out our belongings before taking them in house. They should exterminate

Quiet oasis in Sea Pines….
We just returned from a fabulous week in Sea Pines! My husband and I have been vacationing there for over 30 years and we must say that this cozy, little home was just great for its location and privacy. The home is small but it grew on us and our 4 legged baby within a few days. The only negative we had is the sofa is in need of an upgrade and maybe a nice leisure chair but beyond that everything inside was great….our favorite spot though,…the deck…recently rebuilt and quite cozy and quiet. We also loved being able to cross the main road and have a super beach access path..door to sand…5 minutes! Sweet! We would definitely recommend for a couple and we will be looking forward to our next visit there.

Nice house
Check in may be difficult as the Mgr doesn't send info to VRBO. However, I msg & was helped very quickly. The host supplies everything needed for your stay including washing powder. We were missing a blanket for the couch bed but I believe this was an oversight and we simply bought one. The couch is not new. It is the old one pictured and terribly needs replaced. We didn't complain bc there's really no use. What are they gonna do? Bring a new couch? Location is wonderful in the Sea Pines Resort. We never did find (and certainly couldn't hear) the beach but enjoyed the lush landscape which makes the house feel secluded. Like most of HH this house does have palmetto bugs and cockroaches.

The property was quiet and secluded just enough. It was only A short walk to the beach and pool.
Everything was smooth. I was told I had to pay the daily entrance fee upon arrival. But by simply telling the gate attendant that the owner said our gate pass was at the property, he just let us enter without paying. The description of the property stated brand new sleeper sofa. That was not accurate. It was older and already broken down and smelled of wet dog.

Lovely Getaway!
My husband and I had a lovely stay at this Night Heron. We love that it is a free-standing home. Great location, short walk to the beach (across the street). Quick walk or bike ride to a lot of things- nature preserve, restaurants, grocery, etc. We truly enjoyed sitting out on the deck drawing, reading, practicing yoga, or just simply watching the birds and deer. Overall had a lovely time and would book again.
