Cottage has had recent renovations to both bathrooms, has a full sized washer and dryer, beautiful wood flooring, screened in porch with seating and a porch just off the master bedroom as well.

Great location, well stocked cottage
We had a great time at Kiawah and the cottage was in great condition. Well stocked kitchen, the tv was super easy to use, there was a lot of storage for unpacking in the bedrooms and in the kitchen. Easy to use coffee maker and all the dishes, gadgets, pots and pans you could need. The screened in porch would be used more frequently if it had a dining table/chairs or comfy furniture. That was the only disappointment, everything else was great!

Clean/Near pool
The home was clean and tidy when we arrived. My only complaint is that the house never felt cool. Our guests even commented that the temperature was uncomfortable. Overall, our stay was fine.

Manager Response: Thank you so much for the helpful feedback and we are so glad you enjoyed your trip! We have checked the AC settings and all seems to be in good order, it can be difficult to regulate cool temps in summer here due to the high humidity levels, keeping fans going, the AC fan setting set on "auto" and not "on" and all doors and windows shuts definitely helps. I hope you will be back very soon!

Spring Break
We enjoyed our vacation. House was very clean and great location to fishing dock, swimming pool, and beach.

Great Stay, Great Location
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. House just as described, plenty of space for 3 couples. Everything was clean. Loved the screen porch in back. The outdoor shower was a nice convenience and even had hot water! Our only complaint would be that the a/c did not keep the house very cool. We had to keep all of the ceiling fans running constantly and even then it was a little warm for our liking. Other than that, we had a great time!

Manager Response: Thank you so much for the helpful feedback and we're so glad you enjoyed your stay at the cottage and it worked well for your trip. For the AC, I would have sent someone to double check it while you were in if I had known it was having a difficult time keeping up, it seems to be running without issue. It does have a wifi enable thermostat to help keep the house properly regulated but it can be adjusted as needed and we're always happy to help with any questions on how that works. We hope you will be back soon!

Great Vacation
We had a wonderful stay at 2 Inlet Cove. The house was very nice, clean, and in a perfect location.

Had a lovely vacation at Sundown Lane!
My husband, six year old, and I had a fantastic week-long stay at Sundown Lane. The agent communicated everything to us (I didn’t even have any questions!), including what would be at the property. They did a really nice job of providing things like toilet paper, trash bags, etc (and listed what would be there in info packet they emailed). There were some things like spices and cooking oil even though they said there were not. The kitchen was incredibly well stocked with dishes and all possible cookware you could ever need. And for those traveling during covid, Harris Teeter on Folly Road has express pickup. We ordered our groceries the day before our trip and then picked them up when we got there. Lots of places do no contact pick up as well.

We rented beach gear through ESPM but there were beach chairs at the house already (no cart or cooler). We brought our own bikes but you can rent those as well. The propane grill worked very well!

The beach is about a 10-15 minute walk (very easy and enjoyable) or a quick bike ride. The bike trail is just outside the gate of Inlet Cove! We rode our bikes all around the island (including on the beach!) and had an absolute blast. Inlet Cove has a pool (closed for the winter) and a lovely dock that we went to every day to watch the sunset and hang out on (we saw dolphins!).

The house was incredibly clean and you can tell they put some thought into the furniture and decor. They have a huge cabinet of games and puzzles. Maintenance was generally very good. My one complaint is the master bedroom shower. The pressure is so high and the drain doesn’t work very quickly so the tub fills up when you take a shower. Also the shower curtain blows in when you shower from the pressure. I would still highly recommend the house (and I’m sure they will fix it, we just didn’t want anyone coming in during covid).

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and can’t wait to return!

Awesome cottage!
We enjoyed our stay so much! What a great location for biking and easy access to stores. This little cottage was clean, spacious, well decorated and well stocked. It had everything we needed including all of the little things like a new kitchen sponge, dish soap, dishwasher cleaning pods, extra light bulbs, etc.! The Beach Gear included was also wonderful. We can't wait to come back.

Inlet Cove #2 June 2020
The cottage is lovely and well appointed. I highly recommend the property and ESPM Management. Only negative was that the community pool was closed due to Corona. If the pool is important you should check the status.

Perfect New Years Get-away
Came with my daughters and their friends to be together with another family with a cottage in Inlet Cove. Condo was perfect, clean and well stocked. Walks on beech, kayaking on the river, short drive into Charleston and fantastic fireworks at midnight made our short visit perfect!

Another Great Inlet Cove Vacation
Our rental at 2 Inlet Cove was just as it was pictured on eSP’. It was clean, beautifully decorated, had comfortable furnishings and a great kitchen. I think the screened porch was the favorite spot though! Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Peaceful Tranquility
In a quaint and peaceful gated community, we stayed in a 3 bedroom, 2 full bathroom beautifully decorated home. It was well equipped with and everything you needed. You only needed to shop for food unless you wanted to enjoy the many places to eat right on the island up at the Freshfield market or visit the local grocery for groceries. Or maybe you want to visit the beach, which is either a walk away or a very short drive if you don't want to walk. Thanks for sharing your space with me and my crew.

Perfect Quiet Get-a-way
The home was just as described- clean, cozy, well-decorated, near intercostal and beach. We had a chilly weather weekend, but a short walk to the dock on the intercostal allowed the boys to fish. We used the parks and rec beach access that was closer to the home. Kiawah area was beautiful and quiet. There is one shopping area outside of Kiawah with cute shops, a few restaurants, and grocery but other than that not much shopping inside the gated resort area. Charleston is a good 25 min drive, but a gorgeous one with live oaks making a canopy across the road.

Vacation Getaway
Our stay was not long enough! We hope the cottage is available the next time we come. The cottage was so very well decorated and remodeled. We really felt at home staying there. Everything was is good working order and no problems. Comfortable beds and furniture, no complaints about anything.
We appreciate all the help we received from Hillary. We appreciate the owners for making their cottage available for rent.

Lovely home
We had a wonderful stay at 2 Inlet Cove. It's a very clean, nicely appointed and comfortable home. Loved having the pool near by for swimming and the dock for fishing! Overall a wonderful vacation. My only suggestion would be to have a few beach chairs and/or boogy boards/beach toys on hand as, at that time of year, the nearest beach access didn't have convenient beach rentals on weekdays. Other than that, it was perfect!

Manager Response: Thank you so much for the review and the helpful suggestion about the beach chairs and supplies, I hope you will consider us for your next trip to Kiawah!

KiaWOW Vacation Home!
One of the best vacations we have ever had. The island was spectacular. However, the home is beyond fabulous. It is well equipped with all the things anyone would need and want on vacation. It is clean, well-maintained and has a great layout. This home is bright and cheerful, warm and inviting. The location is superb. It only takes a few minutes to walk to the pool, launch your kayak in the river (where you may see dolphins feeding!) or ride your bike to the beach. It is also super close to the grocery store making it so convenient. And, don't miss waking up to watch the sun rise or, if you are lucky, observe baby sea turtles make their way to the shore line. It doesn't get any better than this!
