We really enjoyed our stay! The house was very clean and exactly as listed! The property owner and manager were very communicative during our stay. We love Harbor Island and plan to return next year for another family vacation!
This was our first experience with VRBO and it was awesome. The property was beautiful and in a great location. The owners were fantastic to work with. Would definitely stay at this property again and recommend it to friends and family.
We had a wonderful stay at the Yellow House! Great communication with owner. Great location for visiting Beaufort, Savannah, Charleston. Property was clean and just as described other than only one golf cart was available during our stay. Plenty of things for the whole family to do in the complex. Would stay here again!
We had a lovely stay at the Yellow House. The property is clean, comfortable and cozy with a well stocked kitchen. Communication with our host Melissa, was prompt and courteous. The location is perfect for a multigenerational family~a perfect mix of quiet beach days and evenings, relaxing times at the house and excursions into Beaufort!
We stayed here last year and had a great time, so we decided to give it a try again. Just a good as we remembered. The house is warm and inviting and has a relaxing beach feel. Having two golf cars makes it easy for everyone to be able to ride around the island and access the beach without any problems. The location of the house is easy to get to. Also, Harbor Island is close enough to Beaufort for shopping or dining and close enough to Hunting Island State Park for an additional beach adventure.
This was such a relaxing and much needed break for my family and I. The home was clean, comfortable and fully stocked. The host, Melissa was incredible! The internet was out from a storm and she was in constant communication to get it back on for us. There were plenty of books, games and puzzles to keep us occupied until they were able to restore it. The golf carts were great for a stroll to the private beach and we enjoyed every moment of our vacation! We will definitly come here again! The view of the sunset and wild life from the wrap around porch was breath taking! Thank you again, Melissa, for everything!
coagain!!minute of our stay!
Lots of wildlife and close proximity to both Beaufort and Hunting Island Staye Park
Nice little older home on the marsh for nature lovers. We loved driving by the lagoon with all the birds and checking out the turtles and alligators along the nature trail inside the neighborhood!
We were able to visit Hunting Island State Park, Beaufort, Phillips Island, and took a charter over to Morgan (aka Monkey) Island. Some cute places to eat nearby and the pool was awesome. Fitness center was just OK (could use some updating and a bit more space) but we used it. The beach was very nice - very wide and uncrowded. We joined the turtle group one morning and loved walking out on the sandbar at low tide.
Beds were comfortable, plenty of towels were available, and the kitchen was well stocked with dishes, dish towels, plates, etc. Two golf carts were available but really only one we felt comfortable enough to drive, which was fine. House is older but in relatively good shape. All in all, a great spot to explore St. Helena and the surrounding area.

Needs a little love
The home is in great need of TLC. The outside could use a major cleaning. The inside could also use a deep cleaning. When walking with no shoes on our feet would be black from the floor. The outside needs pressure washing, especially the steps, balcony and concrete. Weeds were overgrown and bushes hung over the driveway.The concrete and steps have been neglected for sometime. One could tell the cleaning service does the bare minimum. The mattresses also need to be replaced. It would also help if the correct size sheets were used. Every night the sheets rolled off bc full size sheets were used on queen beds. I suggest replacing the linens as well. They are faded, some ripped and have an odd mildew smell when they get wet. These are just things to know if you consider booking. I will have to say the owner was very responsive at all times. The check-in and out process was seamless. The pass to the state park was a plus. When owners don’t live near the property, I feel sometimes they don’t realize the disarray of the property. It’s the visitors’ responsibility to let them know. Overall, we enjoyed the week and the house met our needs.
The location of this beach house is fantastic and it is comfortable. My kids appreciated the loft and the adults appreciated all the extra space. We took the golf cart down to the private community’s beach and pool multiple times. Also the included state park pass provided us with access to almost empty beaches and beautiful natural settings.
We had a wonderful stay in Harbor Island. The house was beautiful and had everything we could need. The deck was a great place to watch the sun set. The owners had beach items we could borrow which helped when we forgot one kids buggie board. The entire island was great, gate guards were always so kind and helpful. The beaches were beautiful. We saw some cool animals, different birds, lots of bunnies, and even an Alligator. Amazing week.
It’s a very nice property, has a few issues that could be addressed. Host was very quick to respond and easy to work with. Overall the island was beautiful and we had a Wonderful trip.
The house was very comfortable. Two nice beds and baths on the main floor and a nice loft upstairs. There were games and puzzles available and the sunsets were spectacular. Easy to find. Great value.
This is one of the best locations i’ve stayed in and i’ve stayed in quite a few. The host was absolutely amazing! She allowed us early check in and also let us stay a xtra day for a fee! The condo itself is absolutely beautiful and so spacious. We have a toddler and it accommodated us well! The view on the portch is perfect for watching the sunset as well! I have no complaints regarding our stay here. The island itself is amazing as well.
The house is very nice, beds are comfortable and living area had plenty of room for all 6 of us. Golf cart was nice to have to get around on the island we would definitely stay here again
It’s a little piece of paradise. Comfortable house, a beautiful community, gorgeous views, clean beaches and we had so much fun taking the golf cart. Thank you!!!
