Salty by Nature - close to the beach and everything Sea Pines has to offer!
Updated in 2023 with new flooring, architectural trim, doors and paint throughout the house, Salty by Nature has so much to offer families looking for the perfect vacation beach house! For a quick glimpse of our updates, check out this video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ybeplcF4Wk
This 3,000 sf single level home is close to the most beautiful and pristine beaches on Hilton Head Island! In less than 10 minutes by foot and 5 minutes by bike, you will have your toes in the sand! Centrally located in Sea Pines within the charming Baynard Cove/Heritage Pond neighborhood, you will be less than 2 miles by bike or car to the South Beach Marina (home of the famous Salty Dog Café), Harbour Town or the Sea Pines Beach Club. Salty by Nature is only a few steps away from access to the Sea Pines bike trail system – one of the most popular features of the Sea Pines community!
The backyard is truly an oasis nestled within the privacy of a lush forest landscape. Relax under a canopy of majestic live oak trees draped in Spanish moss while listening to the sounds of frogs and native birds in nearby Heritage Pond. Sip your morning coffee and kick up your feet on the cushioned couch while watching deer amble between the trees. Enjoy the tranquility of a large private pool equipped with an 18-inch-deep sundeck that allows for cooler sunbathing or a “splash area” for supervised young swimmers – a rare amenity in most Sea Pines homes! The backyard area is the perfect mix of sun and shade throughout the day. Your enjoyment of the over 1,500 square foot patio area will extend into the evening hours as the landscape lighting provides the perfect backdrop for reconnecting with loved ones while enjoying the beauty of our low country paradise. For an extra fee, guests can enjoy the warmth of a heated pool and/or spa for year-round outdoor enjoyment. Once you visit, you’ll know what it means to be Salty by Nature!
With over 3,000 square feet of living space, this home offers 3 full sized bed rooms, three full baths and 2 large family rooms. The largest family room has a wet bar and two sets of modern style folding barn doors. These stylish doors allow for privacy as well as the use of this room as a 4th sleeping area. Skylights and large windows bathe the house in natural light during the day and allow visitors to enjoy nature from the comfort of the home.
The single level floor plan allows for easy and convenient flow between each and every room. Guests will enjoy the benefits of togetherness without sacrificing privacy or quiet time. Our well-stocked and updated kitchen features a brand-new double convection oven, quality appliances, ample dishes, cutlery, cookware and utensils. Impress your family and friends with your grilling skills out by the pool on our 5-burner gas grill with attached side burner. Your family’s dining options will include (1) our 6-seat dining room table that is located adjacent to the kitchen, (2) a picnic table with long bench and 4 chairs located on the outdoor patio overlooking the pool or (3) our small and intimate 3 seat patio area that is located right through the patio doors off the side of the dining room. We even have a small folding picnic table that is perfect for small ones to gather around!
The dining room opens into the second living room which features a 55" Samsung with Roku 4K Smart HDTV and a DVD player - perfect for binge watching your favorite shows or hosting family movie night!
Adults visiting Salty by Nature will appreciate the two large master bedrooms – each having a king size bed, large walk-in closets and spectacular views of the pool. Our bunk room has two sets of bunk beds with each bed having a comfortable full-size mattress. Each bedroom has an HD TV with streaming capabilities and the house is equipped with secured high speed wireless internet service throughout. Come and experience comfort and convenience at the best location in Sea Pines!
Looking for outdoor sports and recreation? Sea Pines is a golf or tennis enthusiast's paradise! You're less than 2 miles away from Heron Point by Pete Dye course, the Atlantic Dunes by Davis Love III course (formerly the Ocean Course) and the world-famous Harbour Town Golf Links, home of The RBC Heritage Golf Tournament. Looking for convenience during Heritage week? We are within a ½ mile walking distance to holes 12-15!
Ready to hit the beach? Salty by Nature has you covered. The house comes equipped with 4 adult beach chairs and a hand wagon for pulling beach gear. We also have a collection of beach toys for little ones! Guests will enjoy storing beach gear in the garage and spraying the sand off those toes using our convenient and unique foot shower station located by the front entrance sidewalk. From Salty by Nature, you will take a quick left down Deer Run Ln and then a quick right turn on to the bike path. Follow the path sign left toward South Beach and past Heritage Pond to beach path 24 (see map below). Salty by Nature is professionally managed by the JKS Abbott Group, which manages homes exclusively within Sea Pines.

Amazing vacation
We had a wonderful time at Salty by Nature. The check in and out process was seamless. Any issues we had, which were minor, were resolved promptly. The property is in a beautiful part of Sea Pines. We really enjoyed the back yard, comfortable beds, and being able to bike to the beach.

Good location with lots of space
Our family had a great week at the house. We used the pool a lot. The management company was very respondent and does a great job communicating. Lots of space for everyone. The only suggestion I would make is to provide more trash bags and dishwasher detergent. I would stay here again and highly recommend this property.

Hilton Head Family Vacation
The property was beautiful and serene. We walked into a very clean and beautiful house. The pool area was like a little paradise retreat. This was are first visit to Hilton Head and the experience was wonderful. Our entire family enjoyed the house and its amenities. The only drawback was that with two small children the walk to the beach was a little longer than we would of liked. All other aspects were wonderful and would come again.

The property was perfect for our family vacation. The house had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable with access to the best Hilton Head has to offer. The beauty of the backyard with the pool and lovely patio was where we spent much of our time when we were not at the beach. We would certainly return to this home for our vacation!

Great trip
House was clean. A bike ride away from the beach in a very nice community. The pool was amazing. Loved being on the patio. So pretty.
We ended renting our own bikes.

Great stay in HHI
We really enjoyed the trip to HHI and our stay at Salty By Nature. The property manager went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and that we were aware of anything we needed to be before we got on property. The pool area is great and gets sunlight and shade throughout the day as advertised. It's a relatively quick walk or bike ride to the beach area, and location wise, it's on a quiet street, yet still very close to many of the activities that you can expect in Sea Pines. Thank you and we hope to be back again one day!

Salty By Nature
Property was as advertised; excellent location, easy walk to beach (I am an 80 year old who uses a walker and had no trouble walking to the ocean).
House was spacious and well supplied. Management was always available and receptive to our needs. Only issue during our 3 month stay was loss of Wi-Fi 4 times-but easily remedied
