About this house rental

70 Otter Island is the only waterfront rental on all of Kiawah that offers a deep-water dock, small private pool, and walkable proximity to the beach. This unique combination of amenities creates the perfect oasis for your next vacation.

The Premier Kiawah Location
Located behind Kiawah’s second set of security gates, the home is at the end of a secluded street with minimal traffic and offering equal convenience of access to Bass Creek and the Atlantic Ocean. A private deep-water dock with kayak offers water access for fishing, boating, or charter pickups. Just steps away is Kiawah’s famous 10-mile beach, accessed on a boardwalk past the internationally acclaimed Ocean Course.

A Designer Lowcountry Home
This quintessential Southern home is surrounded by gracious wrap-around porches on three levels and takes full advantage of its enviable waterfront location. The home is a reverse floor plan to take advantage of the view with the main level being on the second floor, guest bedrooms on the first, and the third floor is exclusively for the master suite. Just reimagined by a notable interior designer, the primary level offers an ideal open floor plan. The oversized living and dining room offers a gas fireplace and access to an enclosed dining porch and grilling deck. The gourmet kitchen is appointed with top-of-the-line Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, a convenient center island and opens to a casual family room. This level is completed by a powder bathroom.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a beautiful home. Nicely furnished. We had some issues upon arrival and the host was quick to respond. Heads up for people traveling with older guests, there are a lot of stairs to navigate which are unavoidable while staying in the home. The kitchen has plenty of pantry items...spices, oils, etc... left by other guest. There are bikes, boogie boards, kayaks and beach chairs available for use. No need to rent or bring your own. It would be very helpful to label the light switches and leave instructions on how to open and close the blinds. It took a while to navigate. The listing states that it is close proximity to the beach. We ended up driving because it’s a little further than we anticipated, especially with beach gear and coolers in tow. Having the dock was definitely a plus. We loved fishing, kayaking, and crabbing every morning. Lots of wildlife to enjoy! Bike trails at Kiawah are flat and mostly shaded. Big plus! Plenty of board games and some toys for the little ones. It was nice to have the little pool/hot tub to enjoy. The grocery store and shopping area is about 30 minutes away.

It is located in a quiet area through the second gate and is beautiful. We were so fortunate to stay here and spent many nights sitting in the pool taking in the marsh. The dock was awesome as well and the owner provided fishing gear, crab pots, and kayaks to use. Would highly recommend this house.
