Always Good!

This stay was our eighth time to enjoy Cedar Reef and the sixth time at this particular address. Without a doubt this location is the greatest for a peaceful getaway. The area is beautiful, easy to access, and offers just the right location for access to all the best restaurants in Beaufort. The beach is great even though there is a lot of it during low tide. Perfect for walking and catching up on your tan. The condo is immaculate with all the amenities that make a home away from home. As stated, this was our sixth stay at this address and we look forward to returning.

Very nice! Updated and steps from the beach

We really enjoyed our stay at Harbor Island and the condo. My elderly parents found the few steps very manageable and it was steps from the beach.The whole place was very updated and clean. I would highly recommend.

Love the porch for both sunrise and sunset!

I had a great stay. My favorite part was the porch facing the ocean where I was able to enjoy sunrise/sunset. The beach was very quiet as were the other condos around me. If you are looking for a place to relax and unwind, this is the place!

Great Vacation Stay

This condo was just as the pictures depict! Absolutely gorgeous!! Whoever designed it has awesome taste. Large bedroom with plenty of storage, bath and a half, very nice kitchen and living room. We loved going to Hunting Island State Park. The provided pass was very much appreciated. There was even two beach chairs, umbrella, and cooler. WOW is all I can say. Must eat at Johnsons and The Foolish Frog. Great service and food. Great contact with booking throughout. Highly recommend! The Ridenours from Tennessee

Perfect Relaxing Retreat

If you're looking for a peaceful relaxing getaway, this is the place for you! When you first walk in, the view greets you, just like the photos show. There is a boardwalk along the deck that connects to the longer boardwalk that takes you to the beach. Your feet don't have to get sandy if you don't want them too! The property has great storage, the kitchen and two bathrooms are new and beautiful. The bed is comfortable. And the kitchen has everything you need. It's gray to have the washer and dryer handy, and the coffee pot allows you to choose individual cups or full pots. We enjoyed the Park Pass that was included, and also drove down the road a bit past the park to watch the sunset at the Marsh Boardwalk, though sunrise and sunset are beautiful from the condo as well! We also thoroughly enjoyed the walk at Cypress Wetlands. So many beautiful birds! The entire property is quiet and calm. There is a gated entrance and a guard that greets you every time. You could hear upstairs neighbors walking around some, but it didn't bother us. We took one day to travel into Charleston (2 hour drive) and enjoyed a horse carriage history tour, which was fantastic! Being from a big city, we were more interested in a quiet stay with a great view, and this was just what we needed. Thank you!

Great location and perfect condo for me and my husband for a long weekend. Great use of the space by the owner making sure everything we could have possibly needed was available! Super grateful that we were allowed a slightly earlier check-in - host was awesome and flexible!

Perfect!

This villa is perfect! This villa has been updated and is perfect! The sunrises and sunsets can be seen from this villa and the ocean view is great also. We opened our sliding glass door and listened to the ocean waves each day.

Perfect Condo

My wife and I stayed this past weekend and we loved it. Harbor Island is a gated community with friendly residents and vacationers. It was quiet and peaceful on the beach. The condo was super clean and nicely updated. We had the best time and would recommend this place to anyone!

Great location!

This rental was in a great location with a great view of the beach/water! Check in was easy, however we would have liked an earlier checkin then 4pm, we had to kill some time on the drive over. The rental was very clean and we loved the extra blankets! We really enjoyed our time at the beach and the pool was very close as well.

Nice Place

We enjoyed our stay. The location is great. Enjoyed the beach and the pool. Had to work while I was there and enjoyed doing so from the spacious deck. There are a few issues with the condo that should be addressed. There are several soft spots in the floors. There is also no closet in the bedroom so if you bring hanging clothes there is nowhere for them. The kitchen could use a few items. Had to buy a pitcher to make tea (which I left for future renters), there is no cutting board, and some of the other necessary utensils should be replaced.

Harbor Island beach vacation

Absolutely loved Harbor Island and all the amenities avaiable to those that vacation there. Accommodations were very, very nice. Really appreciate the included Hunting Island park pass. Pots/pans/lids were in limited supply at the unit. Other than that, this condo is wonderful. Thank you!

We have come to hunting island state park for 20 plus years. The cabins are all gone and we were so sad. My husband surprised me with this harbor island find! It was fantastic , perfect location and next to the state park we loved. The unit was beautiful and comfortable. Great restaurant are a short drive. Susan was super accommodating and assessable to us. We will be back!

Beautiful Condo with beach access

The condo is beautiful! We loved the layout and furnishings. The location was perfect for our trip. The added benefit of access to three pools makes this condo so worth renting. We loved that we could just walk out onto the deck and down the walkway to the beach.
