About this property

Sea Pines Treehouse steps to Harbour Town on Deer Island

A stay in a Sea Loft is a one of a kind experience...... you will enjoy the peace and quiet of a nature preserve with gorgeous marsh views.
Our two bedroom, two bath villa is a nautical inspired, unique octagon shaped treehouse with floor to ceiling windows in every room. The brand new downstairs addition is the perfect spot for watching the game, curling up with a good book or rolling out a yoga mat! The patio deck is perfect for meals, cocktails or birdwatching while overlooking Calibogue Sound marsh. Keep your eyes open and you will likely see the island deer wondering by each day.

Deer Island is just a few minutes walk to Harbour Town, Sea Pines Racquet Club and Harbour Town Golf Links. Each morning you can play your favorite sport, drop by the Harbour Town Bakery (newly renovated!) or stroll the Yacht basin. During the day Harbour Town is the center for all your family water activities from parasailing to paddle boarding or heading out on the sound to dolphin watch. In the evenings, you can visit one of the many restaurants and shops or climb 114 steps of the famous Harbour Town Lighthouse before the evening entertainment begins under the Liberty Oak tree.
Our Treehouse is a 15 minute bike ride to the Sea Pines Beach Club area or the South Beach marina where you can access the beautiful beaches thru dozens of walking paths throughout the entire resort area. The Sea Pines Trolley also provides a wonderful way of accessing the Beach Club and the rest of the resort. The Sea Pines Beach Club is also a 5 minute drive.
Sea Pines will become your favorite vacation destination and we know you will love your time on Hilton Head as much as we do! Security cameras - This home is equipped with an exterior camera for your protection and the security of our guests and property.

2nd Honeymoon

We returned to the Sea Pines Resort for the first time since our honeymoon 44 years ago. We could not have chosen a better place to stay. The location and setting were ideal, everything was just as described in the listing and the entire process from reservation to modification of that reservation to check-in and check-out were flawless.

Weekend Getaway

We enjoyed our stay here that gave us the feel of being close to nature while just steps away from Harbour Town. We hoped to see a few deer in the distance from the deck but actually saw several each day that came around close to the house! The house was exactly as described and seen in pictures. It was very clean and well stocked for our stay. We had a great time & are thankful to have found such a unique location!

Secluded oasis on HHI

Wonderful property with close proximity to Harbor Town and all of Sea Pines. We were pleasantly surprised with how quiet the area is given the proximity to Harbor Town. We definitely enjoyed the daily visitors (deer) as the island is named for.

Perfect home in Harbour Town!

We had an amazing week in this cozy little home within walking distance to everything we needed. This was the absolute perfect spot for what we were looking for. Our family of 3 appreciated the cleanliness and coziness of this home. It was in the ideal location minutes from Harbour Town dining and shops. Highly recommend. Thank you Heather and Jim.

Great for 4 people!

We absolutely loved the location. Easy walk to Harbor Town restaurants, shops and bars. Nicely renovated and equipped. Only sticking point is there is only parking for 2 so if your group has 3+ cars, might be an issue.

This was our 6th year staying in this Deer Island Treehouse! We look forward to it each year. We enjoy everything from the lush surroundings to the gorgeous views and friendly deer. The Treehouse is always pristine and welcoming. We can't wait until our next trip to Deer Island.

Sea Pines Treehouse

We greatly enjoyed our stay here. The house has been newly renovated and shows beautifully. It’s comfortable and clean and truly maximizes all the space. We loved the living space in the lower level accessible by the spiral staircase. It’s small, but a very cute and cozy living space. There is also a desk which my husband used for a bit of work each day. The house is sunny and bright and is well equipped for cooking. We used the bikes everyday. The house looks to be very well equipped with beach supplies, although we didn’t get a chance to use since it was cooler our week. It’s very quiet and peaceful here with an easy and pretty walk to Harbortown. We loved this house and would love to stay again!

Anchors Away!

Loved our stay this week. Beautiful escape to the marshlands of Deer Island where we felt far removed from the hustle and bustle of Habour Town despite being a short walk from the pier. Our family appreciated the updated bathrooms and the beach gear amenities (chairs, wagon, and bikes). Thanks so much! Would love to stay again!

Always a pleasure on Deer Island

We wanted to share HHI with our friends from New Zealand and could think of no better base of operations than the Lofts on Deer Island. Daily encounters with the deer, and our "carefully prepared" carrots were highlights of the visit. "Anchors Away" proved to be everything we have come to expect for a loft on Deer Island; Heather is responsive, friendly and helpful when questions arise. The property is spotless and well equipped, albeit kitchens in the loft are a challenge. This property has a partial view of the Sound over the marsh, giving enjoyable sunrise and sunset experiences. Access to the loft is quite close to the parking spot (unlike some lofts that require a long trek on a boardwalk to reach the stairs). For those interested, the lower level is finished and furnished with sofa and smart TV. The beds are very comfortable; showers are excellent with good water pressure. We all very much enjoyed our stay at "Anchors Away" and reccommend it to anyone looking for an iconic HHI experience within walking distance of Harbour Town.

Family Favorite

Anchors Away has been a family favorite for years! We absolutely LOVE the location, cleanliness, wildlife, views, and especially the provided bikes. Every inch of the house is well-designed to accommodate all of our needs. The deck is one of our favorite places to sit and enjoy the views of the marsh. We are so thankful for this little slice of paradise.

Perfect Getaway

We stayed here for a little over a week in mid-March and it was a thoroughly enjoyable experience. The tree house was a wonderful and unique experience. The location was great. Just a short walk through tropical foliage to Harbour Town. The weather was less than ideal, but the Tree house made up for it. We would definitely return. A super experience!

Cute and well appointed.

Enjoyed the stay. Very quiet. Would definitely stay again. Kitchen table could be more substantial (a little wobbly) but otherwise a great place for couples or family with older children. Note that it has a spiral staircase that may be hard to navigate for some.

Annual Family Vacation to Hilton Head

We loved our stay at this Sealoft on Deer Island! We visit Hilton Head every year for our family vacation and we think the Sealofts tucked away on Deer Island are the best place to stay! So quiet and private yet short walk or ride to Harbourtown! This sealoft was renovated and beautiful! The finishes in both bathrooms and kitchen were lovely! All the details were taken care of! We loved it here! The only negative for us.... we eat in for most of our meals and the table was quite small and shaky for 4 people. Thank you!

Anchor’s Away Anniversary Trip

Two couples celebrated anniversaries on this stay. For one couple it was their 30th and for the other it was their 35th. This was located perfectly for anything Hilton Head! Quick walking access to Harbour Town where the hustle and bustle (for an island) with shops, restaurants, and drinks are readily available. But the absolute plus for us was the peacefully quiet location of this IMPECCABLE rental! Exceptionally clean and tastefully appointed! Everything worked as advertised and is depicted perfectly in the photos associated with this listing. Don’t hesitate. This rental is for YOU!!

Our family loves staying at this amazing sea loft. It is absolutely the PERFECT vacation for us. We love returning year after year. Everything is so pristine and clean. Every inch of the sea loft has been carefully planned and decorated. Deer Island is like a secret, secluded island that is SO close to everything! We ride our bikes everywhere we go including the Sea Pines Beach Club. Having access to 4 adults bikes is an added bonus. Thanks again Heather and Jim for allowing us to make priceless memories at your sea loft. The Zion Family

What a wonderful vacation. The treehouse is so comfortable and well thought out. It has everything you could need. We rarely used our car and instead walked or rode bicycles everywhere. The deer came up to the back deck every day. We will definitely be back!

Great place!

Sea Loft in the Deer Island community was perfect for our stay in Hilton Head. We biked to the beach and to Harbor Town for dinner and dolphin viewing. Deer Island is a quiet community where wildlife is abundant. Besides the deer, we saw a Great Horned Owl, lots of birds, and enjoyed listening to the frogs.

Why they chose this property

We have been vacationing in Sea Pines for over twenty years and have loved it! One day on a bike ride we just happened upon Deer Island and couldn't believe these unique Sea Lofts were tucked away like a secret. Every time we visited Sea Pines we made sure to make a stop on Deer Island and dream about the day when one could be ours. We fell in love with how secluded and private Deer Island is, yet, five minutes away is the fun atmosphere of Harbour Town with all of the family activities it has to offer.
This is really a dream come true and we are excited to share it with others!
