Shorely Blessed on Marlin, Pet Friendly, 6 seat golf cart included
Our spacious 5 bedroom home is equipped for large families who love the beach, biking, and wildlife. We are nestled in a private area of the island, with palm trees for shade, a large yard for the children with a swing, and plenty of parking. Feel free to bring your pet with you upon approval for an additional fee.
Enjoy the large open space living room, kitchen, and dining area with your extended family and friends. The kitchen is fully equipped for making meals, and a propane grill is outside for those who love to barbecue. The Carolina room is lined with windows to sip your coffee and view the wildlife and golfers, or use it as a quiet space for the children to play a board game or watch a movie through Roku after a day at the beach.
First floor bedrooms consist of a family suite to include a king bedroom with walk in closet adjoined by bathroom to a bunkbed room that sleeps 3. Each bedroom has its own sink area. Additional 2nd floor bedrooms include a master king bedroom with private full bath and walk in closet, another bedroom with queen bed, and another room with 2 twin beds which share a full hall bath.
The garage is equipped with all you need for a week of fun- foosball table, beach chairs, boogie boards, sand toys, and bicycles. Shelving is provided for your personal items. An enclosed outside shower and hose are next to the garage walk in door.
The beach is a short distance away (5 minute walk to closest access), or hop on our included 6 seater golf cart to any beach access with our provided wagon in tow to carry the chairs and toys. Walk/Bicycle trails are throughout the island.

Thanksgiving on Fripp
We were pleasantly surprised to find this home roomier than anticipated (you never know for sure with posted photos). We spent thanksgiving here and had room for all of us (12) to enjoy our feast together. The walk to the beach was not too far. We loved having access to the bikes as well. When we did encounter a problem, Gary responded promptly . All in all a great place to stay!

Great Weekend Getaway
We loved our time at Shorely Blessed. The location was great, the house was clean and we were welcomed with a bottle of wine. Sam answered all questions up front and was a pleasure to work with.
We will "shorely" book again.

A fantastic home and vacation!
I rented this house for our family's summer beach vacation, and it was perfect. It's a great location with a large yard, plenty of parking and lots of wildlife. The house is laid out perfect for families and has a lot of benefits if traveling with children. It was nicely stocked with so many extras! A full toy chest, pack n play, highchair, changing table, bunk beds, checker set, games, etc. Plus, the kitchen had plenty of dishes, silverware, glassware, cookware, etc. so it made family dinners easy too. A golf cart is included as well as many bikes, beach chairs, beach toys, boogie boards, etc. This house was perfect for our family, and we really enjoyed our stay. We will definitely stay here again when returning to Fripp. Also, Sam Graci is so nice and always there to help you. You cannot go wrong. This house is a PLUS!!!!

Was indeed SHORELY BLESSED!
We have been coming to Hunting Island for over 30 years. We raised our (now adult) 4 children on the beaches. However, this was our very first family vacation on Fripp Island. (Don't ask what took so long!) We had a wonderful time and a much needed family vacation! The house was in the perfect location, private, quiet, and exactly what we needed for our family of 7. (next year it will be 8!) The house was well stocked with everything we needed to cook and grill. We had enough space in the house to comfortably relax and spread out. The beds were pretty comfortable too! Our youngest daughter made really good use of the tree swing out back. And we enjoyed watching the family of deer stroll through each morning and evening. The golf cart provided was very convenient to ride around the island and admire all the beauty the island has to offer, especially the wildlife! There are chairs and boogie boards available to use too. Sam was available with any questions that I had. It is safe to say we found our house! We will definitely be coming back more frequently. Thank you for opening this wonderful home to our family. We were indeed blessed to be able to find such a last-minute hidden gem.
