About this property

Peaceful Villa with Ocean and Hunting Island View

Important notes!
Summer weeks (May-August) rent from Saturdays to Saturdays only.
Please be sure you read the cleaning requirements at the bottom of the description.

Our condo has been well cared for by all with whom it has been shared. Some guests have returned each summer for many years; and now they share 'their week' with grandchildren.

The kitchen has been renovated to include new cupboards, granite countertops & appliances, including a crockpot and a waffle maker. It is outfitted with everything you could need to make everything from pimento cheese spread to a low country shrimp boil.

In the living area and throughout the condo you'll find a variety of books and magazines, so it's easy to find something great to read. Whether you're looking for the perfect beach novel or a children's book on turtle nesting, there's something for everyone. We keep a variety of puzzles and games which you're sure to enjoy spreading out on the large dining room table. Even if bad weather keeps you away from the beach, you'll have plenty of entertainment indoors.

The bathrooms have been completely restructured and tiled. All new fixtures in the bathrooms, including regular bath tubs, and unlike many other condos, we've moved the sinks out of the bedrooms and into the bathrooms.

The living, dining and bedrooms' furniture and decor are continually updated and/or replaced as needed. With my renter's help, I try to keep the condo ready to be enjoyed as I would my home.

New double-paned Energy Star windows have made such a difference in sound and comfort! The outside heat and cold temperatures stay outside. The new front loading clothes washer and dryer are also Energy Star.

***IMPORTANT NOTE***
I am not an agent, and I only rent and share my own personal condo and am not able to provide/supervise cleaning services. I ask my renters to clean up after themselves, and I have found through the years that they do a better job than any of the maid services I have used. You will not be charged a cleaning fee, but you must make sure the property is cleaned for the next renter.

ABOUT THE ISLAND:
Harbor Island has 2 miles of beautiful clean beach, sand crabs dancing, loggerhead turtles nesting and hatching, egret and heron rookeries, an occasional alligator or porpoise sighting, watching the tide come in and the shrimp boats go out. Harbor is about angel wing shells and sand dollar searches, about crabbing, fishing, incredible sunrises and sunsets, sea oats and cat tails, fiddler crabs, rare birds, dowagers, sand pipers, pelicans, and the surrounding marsh which serves as a nursery for all of it.

ABOUT THE LOCATION:
Harbor is next door to Hunting Island State Park with its fishing pier, museum and lots of Park Ranger programs. Harbor is a 20 minute drive from Beaufort, South Carolina with its riverfront park, nice restaurants and wonderful shops. Many movies have been filmed in Beaufort and on the surrounding islands - you may recognize some of the beautiful scenery. Finally, Harbor is about an hour away from historic Savannah, Georgia to the south and Charleston, South Carolina to the north.

One visit to Harbor, I would venture to predict, will not be enough. You will want to come back again, and again, and again...Feel free to call me and/or email me if you would like more information Cedar Reef Villas and Harbor Island - we love to give recommendations.

Liked: Communication
The property is equipped with everything you need. The owners communicate perfectly. The villa ratings are good but it shows wear and tear. The owners do cut you a break by asking you to clean from their checklist but the level is subjective. When we arrived it was just ok. On that note, I would rent again. Bring your own beach gear. Laundry worked great! Kitchen is well equipped. The community is nice with 2 small pools and one big pool, a gym, tennis courts and a gift/snack shop and just 5 min from the beach. It’s quiet. The tide is out for what seems like a mile most hours. It’s safe for kids and fun to explore though. Locals say stay away from the abandoned beach homes on the sand due to glass etc..The birds are fun to watch. Close dining is limited but good. Low country Superior Coffee had amazing food. Beaufort is beautiful and quaint.

It was a wonderful stay. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We had good luck with the weather. So lots of different alligators in birds. We absolutely love Harbor Island.

About the host

Hosted by Wilson Hubbell

Host profile image
Second generation caretakers of our family beach getaway. Originally from Columbia, South Carolina, our family (Wilson, Jess, and a 12-year old and 8-year old) now lives in Nashville, Tennessee.

Why they chose this property

My mother purchased this property when it was built in 1983, not as an investment, but because she fell in love with Harbor Island. The low country of South Carolina is an ever changing unique ecosystem, and every time I go there I am as delighted as I was the first time that I visited.

What makes this property unique

Harbor Island is about sharing some quiet time on a sea island with the natural inhabitants. Over 650 heron, egret, ibis, and others reside on the island. Migrating birds from the arctic on their way to the tip of South America stop by at Harbor. The sandbars are nesting grounds for endangered birds. And that is just the bird life . . . . Are you a nature lover? . . . you will love Harbor Island.
