Great Vacation
The house and furnishings was comfortable. The pathway to the beach was pretty much shaded which made it comfortable to walk. The beach was fantastic for me because the sand was firm and easy to walk on. We would stay here again. Loved it.

Kiawah Golf
The property was just as advertised. Well equipped, very clean. Convenient location for our golf vacation. Only criticism is that the beds were a little hard. Would stay there again. Would recommend this property.

Lovely Getaway
We had a wonderful stay at this cottage on Kiawah Island. It was very clean, comfortable and well equipped. Loved the glassed in porch. We enjoyed biking around the island. The beach and pool were a short walk away. Susie, the property manager, was very helpful and the check in process was super easy. It was a great vacation!

Wonderful
The Sparrow Pond Cottages on Kiawah Island are just lovely. Clean, plenty of room, great wi-fi access, great management. Close walk to the beach, quiet, in a wooded park-like setting. We had everything we needed with easy access to so many wonderful places to visit. The area is full of history and gardens - with a lot more diversity than we learned in school! Many places drove us to dive deeper into learning more. Great place to stay.

Very Comfortable, Very Clean, Great Location!
We had 6 adults and 1 baby at the cottage last week and we just loved it. It was a great location to get to the pool, beach & shops quickly. We enjoyed biking and looking at the lush foliage everywhere. The beds were very comfortable and sheets/towels very nice quality. The updated & generous-sized kitchen had everything we needed. I would not hesitate to stay here again!!!

Fantastic Kiawah Condo!!!
We loved our stay in Kiawah at this condo! It was close to everything, very well equipped (it even had a cast iron skillet!!) and perfectly laid out. There was plenty of room for my two teenagers and I loved the sunroom! Such a perfect house and the location can't be beat. Susie thoughtfully had dish and hand soap waiting for us and everything else is just a quick drive over to Fresh fields. Her attention to detail is not to be beat! We are all looking forward to spending time at this condo again soon.

Great House, Great Location, Great Price!
we enjoyed our stay at 1028 Scaup court Easter weekend and the week following. great location right near the front gate and the beautiful west beach. Clean. Newer kitchen and bathrooms. We appreciate the flexibility on our arrival dates. Not having or allowing a gas grill was quite inconvenient and would likely cause us to seek a different house on our next visit. would strongly encourage the owner to change his mind on that.

Beautiful and fabulous location.
We were there the week of hurricane Matthew so we left early. But we had several fabulous days. We had alligator bikes drop off bikes before we got there. Then we rode in morning. Beach. Rode to lunch. Beach. Then dinner. And then bike ride. The location is fabulous. The inside is clean and nice. The smell is nice. I'll be back.

Comfortable Home in Paradise
Our family just ended 10 days in paradise. Kiawah Island is more beautiful than I imagined. The pool and beach are truly just a 5-10 minute walk away. (I counted about 600 steps from the house to the water's edge.) There are numerous cycling and walking paths in the neighborhood, and around the rest of the island. But the best treat for us was riding for miles up and down the beach, with the wind in our faces, and waves crashing next to us. The comfortable and accommodating Sparrow Pond home coupled with Susie Oringel's exceptional property management made our family vacation absolutely perfect. The home is true to the pictures on VRBO. It has a very efficient use of space, along with large windows, skylights, and a tray ceiling in the family room to make the home feel larger. We were surprised that our family of 6 adults fit so well. Several of us cooked together, and the spacious kitchen accommodated us all without bumping into each other. We used the sunroom table for puzzles, reading, card games, and morning coffee; and ate at the counter and dining area table. There's plenty of comfortable seating area to watch tv. The home is well-equipped with large, functional appliances, and adequate cooking equipment. The only thing we found missing is a cutting board, so we bought an inexpensive set at the Tanger Outlet. (Our way of "paying it forward" for the future guests.). The super-sized washer and dryer are in a separate laundry, convenient and relatively quiet. The shared bathroom is the only room overdue for renovation. Age and humidity have taken its toll, but my adult-aged children didn't seem to mind. They did a great job renovating the master bath. So the other bath may be on the "to-do" list. Susie graciously provides information with grocery options. With the exception of seafood, my family was completely satisfied by what Harris Teeter had to offer. As a suggestion, get the HT Smartphone app, and VIC (loyalty) card, and the groceries will be quite reasonable. They had some exceptional surprises, too, like grilled chicken breasts, and inexpensive bagels/muffins/pastries produced by a local bakery. We will definitely return to Sparrow Pond. We've vacationed in Rehoboth Beach, Hilton Head, Aruba, and Myrtle Beach, to name a few beaches. But Kiawah beats them all.

Great quiet get away
My wife, my in-laws and I needed to be in Charleston for a week and a half for my wife to have surgery. The hotel we booked ended up being filthy and we found this rental a bit further from the hospital but with a great set-up for our stay. Susie did a fantastic job making sure we had everything we needed for a fast check-in. The house was super peaceful and a short walk to the beach. The beach was gorgeous and allowed for everyone to decompress and my wife to recover. We weren’t here for vacation, but it sure felt like one. I was able to work from the house and things like groceries were convenient and easy to find. We will almost certainly be back.

West Beach - A Winner!
This Sparrow Pond cottage was our introduction to Kiawah Island and we weren't disappointed. The cottage was roomy, clean, well lit, had comfortable beds, and a well equipped kitchen. The furniture style was dated, but very comfortable. Cycling on the beach was exhilarating! (my husband is 80 and I'm 78) Susie, the property manager, was terrific! Her quick responses to our questions and the clear paperwork that was emailed to us helped to create a very relaxing vacation.. We would love to return to the area. JR
