Kiawah Exclusives | 1023 Sparrow Pond Cottage

This bright and beachy 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom Sparrow Pond Cottage accommodates up to 7 guests in comfort and style. A true home away from home, this Kiawah Island cottage boasts an enclosed porch, a furnished, wraparound deck with charcoal BBQ grill, a community pool and quaint, owner-inspired interiors.

This one-of-a-kind Kiawah Island rental is decorated by the owners, a bestselling author and his wife, who is a beloved children's book reviewer. You'll feel as if you were transported back to 1950s when you walk into this cozy beach cottage and nestle into its comfy overstuffed chairs surrounded by bookshelves filled with beach reads. But cozy does not mean old fashioned. You'll find plenty of USB ports, two wireless chargers for those of us who forget our own and 1 gig wireless broadband throughout.

The kitchen has been updated and has everything you need plus there is an enclosed Florida room with a large Smart TV. There is new paint, new carpeting, new rugs, new reupholstering, new bathroom fixtures and mirrors, new kitchen pots and pans, new art, and carefully curated books.

The master bedroom offers a new king bed, en-suite bath, and flat panel television. Bedroom 2 is furnished with a queen bed and Bedroom 3 includes a bunk bed with a twin bed up top and full on the bottom to create a flexible sleeping space for either 2 or 3. These bedrooms share a full bathroom.

The front porch offers a pair of new Maine rockers to enjoy and there’s plenty of room to barbecue on the back deck. Best of all – and certainly fun – this original Kiawah beach cottage still has its outdoor shower so you can get a brisk start to a morning or clean off the sand after a day at the beach which is just a short walk down the quiet, twisting road that takes you through the beautiful oak trees and pine trees of Sparrow Pond.

The Sparrow Pond Cottages are island vacation rentals set in a serene setting near West Beach Village. Take a scenic stroll through the oaks and pines to Kiawah Island’s 10 miles of beautiful beaches, enjoy hours of family fun in the community pool and discover the best of Kiawah Island from this central location. West Beach Village is located nearest to Kiawah Island’s main gate and is situated around the Cougar Point Golf Course and Clubhouse. West Beach is Kiawah’s oldest neighborhood with meandering boardwalks, mature maritime forests and a charming, Lowcountry island vibe.

You’re an easy walk to the beach, a bike ride away from Freshfields Village, The Sanctuary Hotel, Night Heron Park and Kiawah Island’s world-class golf courses and tennis, and a short 40-minute drive to historic downtown Charleston.

Beach Access: Beach access is via Boardwalks 1 and 2.

The cottage was perfect for our group of 6 adults. It had all of the kitchen items needed, was very clean and a short walk to boardwalk 1. There were tons of books to choose from to read as well. My only negative comment would be that the pillows on the bed weren’t the greatest but overall 5 stars for this cute cottage!

Wonderful Beach Cottage
You felt at home as soon as you walked through the doors. It had a wonderful little library and was stocked with everything you need for the stay along with starter items. A short walk to the pool and beach. We immensely enjoyed the bike rentals for the week and exploring the island. The cottage was a quick 5 min drive to shopping, restaurants and groceries. We loved our week stay there and plan to return.
