Reviews
The property fits our needs well as a family. The bathrooms need to be updated badly though. The lighting is honestly terrible in all bathrooms. The bedrooms could use some better storage space (actual dressers would be nice) and mirrors. But, the location is perfect, the deck is great and the beach is right there.

The house looks great now, everything is new and updated.
We stayed at this beautiful property 6/10-6/17/23 and had an excellent stay. Upon arriving, we walked in the entrance and up the stairs and were immediately awed by the stunning ocean view seen through the living room windows. Ownership of the house had just changed prior to our arrival, so there were some initial issues with Wi-Fi but the property manager was resolute at getting it resolved in a timely manner. She was very responsive to our questions. We can't wait to stay here again!
This beach home met our family's needs beautifully. It is on the beach, has plenty of space for large groups (we had 9), and is well equipped. The common space needs more light at night and the oven did not hold to temp. No other complaints. we loved our time in Fripp.
The house is an absolute masterpiece on the ocean at Fripp. The management company did EVERYTHING possible to make sure our vacation went well all the way to shipping back some clothes we forgot. Everything was simply PERFECT!
We had a great week at 472 Tarpon. The kitchen was well stocked for all of our needs. The lower level bathroom shower needs a glass door as the floor gets soaked with any shower. Then the whole room stays moist. We loved the proximity to the beach. The railing on the left side steps is wobbly and needs tightened. Gorgeous location and great home.
Great location and beautifully decorated! Could use a new grille but other than that we would highly recommend! thank you!
great location property manager was very helpful.Only issue was that there was no gas grill but property manager came through. House was great for my family
Everything was wonderful. The living area space allowed for plenty of room for us all to be together but also space enough for small groups to gather. The kitchen was very well equipped. The multiple bedrooms were nicely furnished with the necessities--all that was needed. My family had a fabulous time in this well-kept vacation home. Marnie, our guest rep, was extremely responsive and helpful with our minor electric problem.
