Cozy Dog-Friendly Inlet Cove Cottage for Your Perfect Getaway

Inlet Cove is a gated area located at the West end of the island by the Kiawah River. Inlet Cove cottages include a 25 meter swimming pool, boat dock and cookout area. Leisure trails allow quick access to the beach.

Our Inlet Cove cottage is nestled in the trees of Kiawah providing a feeling of privacy. There is only a short walk to the beach or to the Inlet Cove swimming pool and dock area located on the Kiawah River.

Our smoke-free cottage was totally renovated in early 2019 with a new kitchen, bathrooms, and flooring. We have wireless high speed internet access. We have TVs in all bedrooms and in the living area. There are books, games and puzzles available on our shelves for curling up with after a day on the beach.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a phone.

Great for pets

Great location and perfect for families traveling with pets. Less than ideally clean but that is expected with a place that allows animals. Host was very helpful with shower drainage issue and it was resolved the next morning. Well stocked kitchen with everything you need for cooking.

Wonderful Beach Retreat!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time on Inlet Cove in Kiawah! What a beautiful spot amount the trees. Quiet street with a short walk to the beach. The island is amazing with bike trails throughout, I felt like a kid again. The home was clean, comfy, and felt relaxing. Many great books to read and puzzles. Great experience and we will be back!

Good Location

This cottage was in a great location for the beach & access to Freshfields. It was also wonderful to be able to have our dogs with us. A few things were amiss, however. On our arrival at 4 p.m., the cleaning service was still on property and requested an additional 30 minutes to complete their service. Not a big deal, but honestly, I don't know what she was doing, just not cleaning. The cottage could use a good, deep clean. I know "dog friendly" will mean there is some wear and tear, but it was downright dirty. The floors were filthy, carpets could use a refresh and the bath mats and comforters didn't appear to have been laundered for a very long time. The refrigerator should be emptied also, there were so many condiments and food left behind - I understand not wasting things, but overall it just felt unkempt. The screened porch was absolutely filthy, the furniture (not what's pictured online) was moldy and the grill had no propane - although I don't think we would have cooked on it anyway. It needs replaced. Additionally, it would have been nice to know of the construction in the unit next door - we would have stayed elsewhere. It started before 8 a.m. on Monday morning, and continued every single day until after 8 p.m. It was very disruptive for the dogs, who barked constantly while we were in the unit on the weekdays, so not very relaxing for us. It was nice to have our dogs with us, but not exactly the trip we planned.

Family time

We have been staying in Inlet Cove for more than 30 years and it never lets us down! This cottage was no different. The property is so cozy and comfortable; the kitchen is very well stocked and this was important as we love to cook. I loved looking through the scrapbook as it let me know how much the owners also love the island.

Family vacation

Our family cooks many meals and the kitchen was the best stocked kitchen in a home that we ever rented. The location is perfect and you can easily walk to the beach as well as to the inlet to watch the dolphins strand feed. Maggie was very responsive to any questions we had. We appreciated bringing our fur babies with us too. I was fortunate to see a momma sea turtle as well as the babies released into the ocean.

Lovely Kiawah Island

Great location just outside of the Kiawah property. Very short walk to the beach from the house. The house was super with just the right amenities for our stay. Comfy beds and lots of space for all of us. Maggie is a great host. We had a minor issue with the cable TV when we got there that only the host could solve. Maggie was responsive and got it rectified!

Wonderful getaway

We loved staying at Maggie's cottage. We cooked a full Thanksgiving meal in her kitchen and were very comfortable hosting dinner for our family. We loved being so close to the beach, which is magical. Having our dogs with us was a huge bonus. Our dogs just loved being able to run around on the beach with utter freedom. We rented bikes for the week and biked around everywhere, including the beach. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Great family vacation

We are a family of 5 adults, with one originally from Charleston, who decided to try Kiawah after seeing the listing for 79 Belmeade on VRBO. What a fabulous experience. The owner communicated well and the directions were concise and accurate. Entry to the neighborhood and house could not have been easier! The home was comfortable and in a walkable, friendly neighborhood. Access to the beach was easy, convenient and safe. Amenities within the house were a treat (screened porch, workout equipment, cable, large showers, fully equipped kitchen, etc). We will absolutely rent from this owner again. Thank you for being a fabulous place to make family memories.
