Great summer vacation

House was situated perfectly with access to the beach, shops and restaurants. The street was super quiet and lots of trees for shade. The house had beach chairs and a wagon that accommodated our family of 6. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook in and the grill also made cooking easy. The pool was great for after the beach to still hang outside and get some shade and cool off in the water. We highly recommend this house and will absolutely book it again when we visit Hilton Head next!

Great summer vacation home

This was the perfect home for our summer vacation. We loved it! It was so clean and inviting and had ample space to enjoy time together cooking meals, playing games and relaxing by the pool. The location of the home is in a quiet neighborhood, a short walk to the beach as well as restaurants and shops. We will definitely book this home again if we return to Hilton Head!

Great Location!

7 of us stayed at The Cottage on Park and it was a perfect rental for us! We especially loved playing games at the huge dining room table in the evening. Walking to Coligny and the beach was easy- even for Grandma who is 83! The beds were super comfortable and we found ourselves sleeping in longer than usual!

Great spring break vacation

The Cottage on Park was the perfect spot for our family vacation. The beach is a quick walk across the street and Coligny shops and restaurants are a 1/2 mile walk away. The pool was a nice amenity, the kitchen was extremely well equipped, absolutely every need was met. Additionally, the hosts were readily available, answering any questions we had extremely quickly. We love visiting Hilton Head and will definitely consider this property again in the future.

Cottage Perfection

The cottage was great. Location to the beach and Coligny was perfect. The cottage was very comfortable and the kitchen had everything you needed. The only thing missing was the Golf Channel that the golfers wanted on the rainy evening/day. Will rent again.

We loved this property! The pool was wonderful for the kids, and the home was perfect for our family. Short walk to the beach, and they supply a nice wagon and beach equipment including chairs. It was so nice to have that!! Short walk to the beach made it the perfect spot for us. We absolutely loved it. Highly recommend!

Exactly as advertised

Every detail was exactly as expected. We can’t wait to come back! We learned that we could rent chairs and umbrellas and have them set up for us on the beach within walking distance from the cottage from Shore Beach Service, that was helpful.

5 Stars! Great home in quiet neighborhood, close to Coligny.

My family just wrapped our 4th visit to HHI and 1st visit to The Cottage. We had a fantastic time and loved loved loved the Cottage at 8 Park Road. The home was perfect! We will be back as soon as possible and will absolutely stay here again. Beautiful beach decor, completely renovated, everything you need for a perfect beach vacation. Thank you iTrip team. Well done!

Perfect

We loved this charming little cottage that lives large. It was perfect in every way for our family of five. It was beautifully decorated with plenty of space to spread out, cook meals, have another family over to cook out, play euchre tournaments , and just find your own nook to read. The private pool was such a treat to have in the mornings before we were ready to hear the beach and after returning from a hot day at the beach. The easy walk or bike ride to the beach and Coligny really makes this a five star property in my opinion. And added bonus was the beach location was not crowded so it was very easy to social distance. Will look to book this property anytime we visit HHI!

Chill

I took my daughter and a couple of her friends to Hilton Head for a little R and R. The House was the perfect size for 4 people. Located on a quiet side street we barely had any cars go by. Great pool in the backyard with chairs to sit on and umbrellas to provide shade when it got hot. The beach and walking trails were just a 5-minute walk away. Coligney was a 10-minute walk away so you could get your steps in and do some shopping at the same time. Also, restaurants and grocery store are close by also. I can't come up with anything bad to report so if you're looking for something a little smaller and a little cheaper and still getting the same amenities as the bigger houses this is your place.

Great cottage in Hilton Head!

We recently spent five nights at The Cottage on Park with family members, including a 13 and 10 year-old. Everything was as advertised and we were quite pleased. The location is excellent if you want to be near the heart of Hilton Head without the noise. The pool was small, but great. The outside grill was new and while the tank was empty, it was not an issue because there was a spare in the shed (and when we reached out about the empty tank, the office was very responsive!). The kitchen was was well stocked with utensils, etc. They could use some new frying pans, but overall, they had everything we needed and it easily accommodated our group of six. The house was well cleaned and charming. The pool and beach gear was well-stocked with chairs, a wagon to haul stuff to the beach, noodles, chairs around the pool, etc. The only complaint, which cannot be helped in HH is that the large oak tree in back constantly shed leaves and seeds in the pool and all around. It was hard not to track this stuff into the house and my only recommendation would be for a rug to be placed inside the sliding door so this stuff didn't end up around the house. That is a nit-pick. The house is great and we would not hesitate to stay there again.

Best vacation ever!

The cottage on Park felt like home the minute we walked through the front door! My husband and I stayed in the Master Suite adjacent to the Reading nook. Our ensuite bathroom had a washer and dryer. The open concept living room, dining area, and kitchen was the center of the cottage. Our daughter and our son-in-law stayed in the second Master suite at the other end of the cottage. Our grandchildren, ages 18 months and 4, shared the third bedroom, which was adjacent to their parent's suite. It was absolutely the perfect layout for our family. The cottage had everything we needed. The kitchen was well stocked. We were grateful for the wagon to haul the beach chairs and cooler to the beach. (The lovely, shaded walk to the beach took us about 7 minutes.) Whoever decorated the cottage creatively had every detail perfectly designed for a vacation with a peaceful beachy vibe! We all loved the cottage! While our 18 month old napped, we returned to the cottage and took advantage of the heated pool. We paid a little extra to have it heated which was so worth it! The temperature was perfect. The pool was just the right size for us! The pool area was nicely laid out! The walk to Coligny Plaza was about 17 minutes. We enjoyed exploring the restaurants and little shops. We also enjoyed the ice cream and live music! Our vacation was perfect! And we would definitely stay at the cottage on Park again! Best vacation ever!

Relaxing home close to everything!

From arrival to departure our stay was wonderful. We loved the cozy couches and comfy beds. The coastal decor was lovely and we seemed to notice something different each day. The kitchen was well appointed and we ate breakfast and had evening snacks without needing any appliance or tool that we couldn’t find. The home is located within a short walk to the beach and we ventured over one morning to catch the sunrise. Local restaurants and shopping were close but the street the home is on is very quiet. It was chilly while we were here but we did manage to get some pool time in one day. The pool area is so nice even on a cool day just to sit in the sun. We used the washer and dryer as well which was a nice amenity. We also traveled to Savannah one day within less than an hours drive. We would stay here again!
