Gull Cottage~~~
Welcome to our slice of heaven, Gull Cottage, a great beach house
just 200 yds. from the ocean and pristine private beaches! Located
in the private, gated community of Harbor Island, just 15 mins. from
historic Beaufort SC, we are a waterview home at the end of a small
cul-de-sac with the marsh and river on one side of us and the ocean
at the other end of the street. Gull Cottage overlooks expansive
marshes teeming with wildlife and the tranquil Harbor River. Our
deck is the best spot on the island each evening to witness some of
the most dramatic sunsets you will ever see!
Gull Cottage is a 3 BR/2.5 BA home that sleeps 8-9. The master
bedroom has a king size bed with private bath including double
vanities and oversized shower. There is a porch directly off the
master bedroom that overlooks the tidal creek and marshes.
The second guestroom has a queen-sized bed and the third guestroom
has 2 twin beds plus a trundle pullout (the trundle pull out is
recommended only for a small child). The second and third
guestrooms share a full size hall bath.
In the Great Room, there are 2 full sized sofas and one converts
into another king-sized bed. With an overstuffed chair in the Great
Room there is plenty of comfortable seating. The Great Room also has
a large TV, satellite, VCR, and DVD. Our large dining room table
seats 8 and there is additional seating for 3 at the breakfast bar.
Gull Cottage also has a pack-n-play crib, high chair, and optional
barrier gates for small children.
We have a very large, fully equipped kitchen with Corian counters,
tiled floors, and upgraded appliances.
Gull Cottage was professionally decorated. The house comes with all
linens provided (except personal beach towels) and the house is
professionally cleaned after each rental at no charge to you.
Harbor Island~~~
Harbor Island is a 1700-acre island about 15 miles east of Beaufort
SC directly on the Atlantic Ocean and is a private gated community
with over 2 miles of private beaches. We are a very friendly, family-
oriented island.
The Harbor Island Beach & Tennis Club is a short walk from the house
and has an oversized pool, kiddie pool, tennis courts, fitness
center, weight room, playground, volleyball court, snack bar, and
basketball area.
Harbor Island, for those who haven’t experienced it before, is a
welcomed relief if you are seeking a quiet place to recover from the
hectic, bustling day-to-day pace. It’s that special place you
remember vacationing with your own parents, and the perfect spot to
make your own family memories or just relax by yourself.This is a
very friendly and warm neighborhood that functions at bicycle and
golf cart speed and where everyone, strangers included, wave to each
other.
Things to Do~~~
In addition to the Beach& Racquet Club mentioned above, you can try
your hand at crabbing from the community bridges or surf fishing
along the beaches. For those early risers, the beachcombing is
exceptional. There are 4 semi-private golf courses within a short
distance, but for those who want to hit a few balls there is even a
100 yd. driving green.
Hunting Island is directly next to Harbor Island and is a state park
complete with biking trails, hiking trails, a lighthouse that you
can climb up to the top, a great fishing pier, and nature center.
It is also one of the spots where Forrest Gump was filmed and is a
designated Maritime Forest. Hunting Island is also the location for
guided kayak and nature tours (kayaks are available to rent from the
Kayak Farm.
Beaufort SC~~~
Beaufort is the second oldest city in South Carolina and is teeming
with both historical and shopping adventures. Horse drawn carriage
tours and walking tours of the historic district are available
and “downtown” Beaufort by the bay offers wonderful boutique
shopping, art galleries, and dining.
Day Trips~~~
Charleston SC and Savannah GA are both day trips, as is Hilton Head.
If you are looking for quality time in a quality place, this is it.
We love Harbor Island and our Gull Cottage. We hope you will too!
NO SMOKERS OR PETS, please!
We are VERY SERIOUS about this due to family members with asthma.
Thank you!
