Wonderful home and location

My friends and I had a wonderful stay at this lovely and well-appointed beach home. The couches and beds were very comfortable, and you couldn't ask for a more well-stocked kitchen with lots of silverware, dishes, and glasses. We enjoyed having several places to comfortably sit and chat (the screened porch is my favorite), and the proximity to shopping/restaurants and the beach couldn't be beat. Just wish we had more time!

Perfect stay for multiple families

We had a great stay in kiawah and this was the perfect house for our group -- my family of 5 (2 toddlers and a newborn) and both sets of grandparents (soon 6 adults in total). There was plenty of space for everyone and a few different sitting areas to choose from. The kitchen was really well stocked which was helpful for cooking dinners at night. It was in a great location and easy to walk to the beach and pool. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Perfect Cottage Retreat

We had a terrific stay and enjoyed every minute of our time in this charming cottage which fit our family's multi-generational needs perfectly. Loved the layout of the kitchen and sitting areas to allow for conversation coupled with the privacy of the bedrooms located at the corners of the cottage. Also very much enjoyed the community pool and regularly utilized the bikes we brought with his to the property to explore the surrounding trails as well as quick rides to the beach. Looking to rebook for next year!

Great stay! Perfect location and all the amenities

We had a great week. It’s in a perfect location located close to all the bike trails, the beach, and all the stores. It’s perfectly equipped with all the amenities you need for staying in and cooking or grilling and very comfortable and beautifully decorated for lounging and sleeping. Our favourite is the screened in room out back for eating meals or enjoying a drink, it has a great atmosphere with all the trees and wildlife around! We would highly recommend this for couples or families. We had 2 couples with 3 kids and lots of room for everyone! We will be back for sure

Relax and recharge

My grandson was in awe when we drove up! He couldn’t believe we were staying in a treehouse! We all had a wonderful, relaxing week and this darling, well appointed house helped bring us together after months apart. The space is cozy and comfortable with opportunities for togetherness and me-time! The screened porch is an oasis and one evening we grabbed our binoculars to watch hawk parents prepare dinner for their babies. Amazing!! It’s a perfect location - a short scenic walk to the beach, an easy bike ride to the general store, and all the quiet you need. We loved it.

Should not be listed with your company

I have rented several times with Home Away and have never been disappointed before this experience. Obviously you have not seen the property in person. All baths had serious mold, tub had sand, leak in ceiling with mold, cockroaches, washing machine had mold in the rubber gasket. So bad that I could not wash my clothes, only their towels. It truly was an embarrassment. Reading through their contract again I think they have had similar reviews as they mention - if you don't like it, it was your decision to rent. I hope you remove this property. This is not just a cleaning issue but total neglect. We have pictures showing the above if interested.

About the host

Hosted by Alina Bartlett

Host profile image
We are Richard and Alina Bartlett, the owners of 1013 Sparrow Pond Cottage. Both of our children learned to ride bikes, roller blade, fishing and crabbing in Kiawah. Every summer we host our extended family from Florida and every Thanksgiving we share the good times with those from Canada. We wish every one of our guests lasting and unforgettable memories.

Why they chose this property

During our 10th wedding anniversary we visited Kiawah, a Real Estate Agent and the rest is history. We chose this Barrier Island because of its natural beauty, relaxed atmosphere, miles of bike paths, and shallow safe beach, a must with small children.

What makes this property unique

1013 Sparrow Pond is located in the area we like to call “historic Kiawah” or the West End of the island. It is close to the Main Gate and easy access to Freshfields Village. We are a few minutes’ walk to both the neighborhood pool and the beach. A short bike ride on the beach will take you to the West End of the island where the river meets the sea and where you can experience haunting sunsets and plenty of marine life. The tidal pools are great fun for the young ones. We are also a short walking distance from the Cougar Point Golf Course and the West End Tennis Center.
