Guest Access:

We want your stay to be all about the memories - not the paperwork. So let's get the small stuff out of the way early and get back to what matters: your trip!



Every reservation is required to complete a quick Guest Portal before check-in. It's a secure external link we'll send you shortly after booking, and it's also where you'll find all your check-in details - including your all-important door code.



The pre-approval process takes just a few minutes and covers three simple steps:



1. Sign the Rental Agreement - a quick electronic signature, no printing required.

2. Guest verification - a fast, standard guest verification.

3. Pick your coverage: Damage Waiver (a small, non-refundable fee covering eligible accidental damage during your stay - our guests' favorite option, since it takes the stress out of minor mishaps) or Security Deposit (a fully refundable hold, released after checkout as long as everything's in order).



We'll email your secure portal link before arrival - just a few minutes of your time for a much smoother check-in. Thanks for helping us keep things safe and simple. We can't wait to host you!



The Neighborhood:

The North Forest Beach area is part of one of Hilton Head Island’s most popular beach communities. Located on a one-mile stretch of beachfront that begins at Coligny Circle. The place to be when fun in the sun is on your agenda.



Getting Around:

Biking is very popular on Hilton Head Island, known for the many award-winning trails. There are recommendations for bike rental companies within your Guest App. You can reserve in advance and they will deliver to you or bring your own! Almost everything you will need is within walking distance, so bring your walking shoes! There are free trolley stops at various locations throughout the island.

This property was perfect for our family. Great location. I would have liked it if beach chairs were included. There was a cart to bring items to the beach, which was great. Also, the rooms with two beds had double beds, not twins. That made my kids very happy. I would highly recommend this property.

This is a great family friendly property that is absolutely worth renting (again). As a family who has rented on the island for several decades now, this house has everything you might need. From a fully stocked kitchen, to linens, and towels, our family was set for a wonderful week. We too, had the fortune of meeting the property owner during our visit, who was wonderful and offered her personal assistance should we ever need it. From a how can we make this place any better standpoint? My one suggestion would the furniture. The main living room was a bit tight for our family and the sun room table/chairs were not overly comfortable. We wanted to sit out in the room, as the evenings were so lovely, but found the furniture to be more along the lines of patio furniture rather than furniture that is conducive to a sunroom/relaxing. That said, though, I know how nitpicky this sounds. Which leads me to say, I/we would absolutely rent this place again and look forward to the forthcoming updates to the property in the year ahead!

Overall pretty disappointing experience in this property and def would not stay again. Booked it because of the location and pet friendly but but clearly no good monitoring of dog poop in the yard (making the yard unusable) and stains on the couch, pet fur on the bedding from previous pets. This property was overpriced for what you get. Small investments in the property to optimize experince could be: having a fridge with a water filter (given the beach water taste to the tap water) and ice maker, curtains or some sort of window dressings and not the cheap plastic blinds that just really make it feel like a low class apartment, better mattresses or memory foam toppers to optimize the existing mattresses, higher quality bedding, removing the rug outside on the concrete patio, adding some sort of outdoor space that is actually usable and appealing to sit in as the existing screened in porch functions more as a mud room rather than a place for lounging. The living space was the only pleasant area of the house to spend time in and the couch was dirty and uncomfortable. Zero sound proofing in the walls so no privacy between bedrooms. Just a cheaply built old house that has been reno'd/furnished with lowest investment to maximize ROI for the owner. Would never recommend or stay again. On a positive note - HosttoCoast provided a really cute welcome tray and bag, high end cleaning supplies for kitchen and laundry which was a nice touch to elevate the experience
