Amazing stay at Treetops! Everything was perfect for our family and friends, the house, location, gorgeous views, paddling with gators and relaxing and bocce on the beach. Michelle was a great host - we had everything we needed. Looking forward to our next visit!
The location was so wonderful..it accomodated 12 well..we loved all the amenities and the ease of getting around with a golf cart..loved the dock and the deer
Once again, the host was extremely responsive during our communications.
The host was also very accommodating to our requests and was quite helpful.
The property was in great shape and it worked perfectly for our 4 adults and 8 kids.
Definitely recommend this location for a family vacation home.
Great home for our family and friends to enjoy. Perfect location, central island location, across the street from the beach. Would definitely recommend this home and will be back, hopefully soon.
Location of house was wonderful and perfect for a large group. Easy access to all Fripp had to offer. Michelle was a pleasure to work with. We've already booked our return trip next year.
Great property, Excellent remodel, well appointed, excellent location to the beach, cannot say enough good things about this property. I would recommend this property and would stay here again. Owners were great to work with as well. Five Stars
We visited Fripp for spring break - two families, both long time Fripp visitors, stayed here. We loved the location on the canal for fishing & the location was walkable to the food court/basketball court/pickleball courts. The house is quiet!The golf cart rental (included) was a super easy process. However, because the rental is from an off-island company, if something happens anytime after 5pm, we were without a golf cart until mid-morning the next day and had to rely on Fripp Security to bring us home.We had an issue with the AC when we arrived & the home owner was SO fast to call repairmen that came out urgently and we got it up and running within a couple of hours of our arrival. We really appreciated that!Just a heads up, especially for those with kids - there is not an indoor stairwell connecting the upstairs and downstairs. Luckily, the kids staying downstairs were old enough and trustworthy enough to walk outside & up the stairs to join us for meals, game time, etc. But, the washer/dryer is downstairs - so when it rained, I had to run thru the rain with my clean clothes when I brought them upstairs! There are 2 en suite king rooms , a 2-twin bed room with a hall bath, and a queen bed room with hall bath all upstairs. Downstairs was a queen bedroom & a bunk bedroom, both that share a bathroom. Plenty of space for all the kids!There is PLENTY of parking & we were able to bring a small trailer and park it where it wasn't visible from the road (Fripp rules).
We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Treetops. Communication with the owner was wonderful. You can't ask for a better location - an easy walk to beach access, a few doors down from the adult pool, has its own dock for fishing and crabbing on the canal, the trees make it feel like a secluded hideaway. We were a group of all adults (18 - 70) and had a delightful time.
The house was warm and inviting. Everyone had their own privacy. The host was wonderful, always responded to all our text messages within minutes, and made us feel at home. The house was set up perfectly for our family. We recommend this beach house to all our friends.
The house and the location was wonderful. The layout made it easy for the eight of us to interact and still relax. We had some older "kids" staying with us and the split level house with multiple entertainment areas provided relaxation for all! We enjoyed the rocking chairs on the deck overlooking the canal. The deck was in the tree tops and no houses across the way made it seem secluded. We enjoyed watching for wildlife, fishing off the canal, walking across the way to beautiful beach, and riding carts to the pool. This was a wonderful vacation!
Everything was great as usual. Everyone had a great time. We were able to have our family party under the cover of the porch and garage area due to rain. We still had a good time even with the rain. Looking forward to Fripp next year. Thanks
Amazing house and location. All of the kids caught fish on the dock behind the house, and beach access right across the street. House was perfect an more than enough room for 8 adults and 6 children. The two kitchens and living area provided room to spread out and get some quiet time. My favorite spot was the back screened in porch.
Michelle was an amazing and responsive host who went WAY above and beyond to make our visit a success.
My family had a wonderful week in the Treetops at Fripp! We had two 1 year olds, two 5 year olds and 6 adults, and Treetops was the perfect match for our family. We loved the beach, and the golf cart that was included in the rental helped us get there even though the beach was right across the street. We really liked that the pool was within walking distance when the 5 year olds wanted to swim, but the golf cart was being used elsewhere. We enjoyed both back porches. The kids loved coming nose to nose with the visiting deer through the screen on the porch. The living area was really comfortable and is open to the kitchen, so we all could be together whatever area we were in. Michelle was very responsive and helpful when we had a couple of questions. Overall, just a great week and a great place to stay!!!
This is a wonderful cottage on the canal.
Only problems we had was the internet and the washer and dryer. The internet has not been upgraded to the new Hargray high speed internet. It was so poor, I had to use my own hotspot at times. The other real issue was the washer and dryer located in the downstairs room. You had to exit the upstairs and enter the locked downstairs to use the washer and dryer.
We had a great stay! The location of this house was perfect - the beach boardwalk was right across the street, the beach club was an easy walk and/or very quick golf cart ride, and everything else was close as well. It was our first time on Fripp, and the house couldn't have been more centrally located. We had 10 adults and one toddler. The separate basement housing was perfect for 2 couples and then the rest of us were in the main house, including our 2 year old. The main living area, which is open to the kitchen, was spacious and perfect for hanging out, eating, etc. We also loved the upstairs screen porch! Only thing I want to make sure families with young children know before booking the house is that the 2 bedrooms, hang out area and kitchen downstairs are only accessible by going outside first, so you wouldn't want young children to sleep down there alone. But again, plenty of sleeping room upstairs! Michelle is incredibly accommodating and responded to all questions super quickly. We loved our stay at Treetops and would definitely rent again!
My family and I were so excited to be vacationing, again, on Fripp. When we found the Treetops listing on VRBO, we thought it would be the perfect fit for our family. My pleasant communications with Michelle made our choice even easier. While the location of Treetops is excellent, across from beach access and on the canal, and the layout served my family well, our stay did not start on a good note. I believe most people expect a certain level of cleanliness, in normal times. In the days of COVID-19, I had hoped there would be even more care taken. Unfortunately, and it was very obvious, the house had not been thoroughly cleaned before our stay. Most of the issues were in the upper level of the house. The kitchen was not in the same condition as reflected in the VRBO listing photos. The cabinets, some in disrepair, and countertops were dirty, as were the floors and bathrooms. Some of the shower curtain liners were covered in mildew stains while others were missing altogether. Both refrigerators, up and down, smelled of foul odors due to some type of spilled and and spoiled liquid. There were not enough bath towels and wash cloths to service each of my family members with just one set. There were no hand towels. We did what we needed to do, cleaning wise, so that we could relax and feel comfortable for our stay. In Michelleâs defense, she did try to help and subsequently hired a new cleaning service to take care of the house after our departure.
My family and I have always enjoyed our get togethers on Fripp. Even in these challenging times, this gathering was no exception. I just wish our stay at Treetops had met and exceeded my familyâs expectations. Sadly, it fell short.
We loved the peaceful background view from the deck and screened porch, with so much wildlife, and the easy walk to the beach! Hope to stay at Treetops again!
Our stay at Treetops was awesome! We come to Fripp every year in October with a large family. This home fit our family perfectly! Love the downstairs option for additional space. We will definitely be back and are hopeful we can stay again for our week next year. Thank you to the owners for being readily available for anything we needed and providing their perfect island retreat for our family.
Overall great. We had to purchase nonstick frying pan , tea pitcher, and plastic forks and spoons from Walmart as forks ran out quickly and there are no small spoons! No big deal just FYI. Michelle was A+
We visited Fripp for the first time several summers ago and we fell in love with it so much that we decided to buy a place on the island that we could visit when we weren't renting it and we have loved it!!
I absolutely love having the private dock in the backyard. It's so peaceful and the sunsets are just stunning. There are a few places to get away in the home as well to read and have some solitude. Two of the bedrooms have access to the spacious front porch with chairs for relaxing with a morning cup of coffee. The two screened porches on the back of the house are so cozy and they offer comfortable seating and a beautiful view! This house is perfect for a family and maybe even two families as there are 2 kitchens! The ground level of the house offers privacy as it is only accessed through outside stairs. Almost everything in the home is brand new! We are within walking distance to all of the action on the island. The main olympic-sized pool is almost right across the street, which is wonderful for traveling with small children. Just so convenient. Also the house is set back a very good distance from the main road, and so we don't worry about the children getting too close to the road.
