It could use some updates (especially the kitchen) but we didn’t cook much. King beds were excellent - bunks were to be desired. Planned on using the hot tub but unfortunately it was out of commission. The gas grill was excellent - even had a new propane tank for when the attached one ran out. ##### Shawna S.

Comfortable for our family during COVID restrictions. We did outside gatherings and had plenty of space for everyone. Enjoyed the dual living rooms, large eat in kitchen/dining room area. Only problem was the washer didn’t work properly and we notified the property manager. Would love to rent again in the summer. ##### Don L.

We had a couple issues but communication was great and they were resolved. The twin bunk beds were too firm for my liking but the couch was super comfortable so I ended up sleeping on the couch. The hot tub and pool were fantastic! I would not hesitate to stay at this property again! Super close to the beach, great outdoor space and cozy interior. I miss the home and location so much! The wifi is not great but it was pretty nice to just unplug for the week so that really didn't cause any issues at all. This is a great find! ##### Lisa H. Stayed 8 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jillian G. Sep 15, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Happy Heron was a Happy Time Perfect for our family vacation. The house is in a great location; short walk to the beach and Coligny Plaza. It was very clean when we arrived and had starter supplies until we could get to the store. Plenty of room for all of the family to gather outside, the living room, and around the table. The property manager/owner was timely in returning communication regarding the hot tub status. Not sure if it was just the time of the year but we had to clean the pool/sweep the pool deck every day for the acorns/needles. The pool company did come mid-week to give it a deep clean. The pool deck could use some work as far as uneven pavers and cleaning out the needles and acorns. Overall this is a fantastic property and with the upgrades they are planning will be an in-demand home for vacations! ##### Jillian G. Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dan A. Sep 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Exceeded expectations The house was very nicely decorated and spotless when we arrived. Location was perfect. Short, mostly shady, walk to beach and is located across from a small nature reserve. The kids enjoyed watching the deer and other wildlife (no alligators!). The bedrooms are large and roomy with comfy beds and plenty of storage. Loved the 2 "living rooms". We could close one off so the hard-of-hearing adults could turn the TV volume up without disturbing others. The kitchen was nicely stocked with more than enough dishes and cooking utensils/pans. We really enjoyed the outside area and the entire backyard is fenced. Our dogs could not get out and had a potty area away from the pool area. The pool area is much larger than it looks in the pictures. From what we found, you cannot heat the hot tub without heating the pool. That rendered the hot tub useless in August because we preferred the refreshing pool. Very minor point to us! We would definitely rent this house again! ##### Dan A. Stayed 8 nights in Aug 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Drew B. Apr 10, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Very good location and pool, house needs work If I could have, I would have liked to have given this property a 3.5 out of 5 stars. But, we couldn't bring ourselves to give it a 4 star rating. The things we liked were mostly everything that we already knew about the property - the location being the primary positive. Also, the pool and hot tub were fantastic. The pool was heated well (first week of April) and the hot tub was great. The back patio area was fantastic. The negatives - the place was very tired and run down. All the dressers and most of the couches seemed old. Kitchen cabinets were beaten up terribly. The decor we knew from the pictures, but the age/wear was more than expected. Also, the cleaning crew didn't do a good enough job. There was a dirty kleenex and sock under the bed, and one of the living room areas hadn't been swept as their were leaves and sand on the floor. For the price, it wasn't a bad place. The location and pool area are fantastic. If you don't mind some age on the furniture either, you'll enjoy your stay here even more than we did! As always, HHI, and particularly North Forest Beach area was fantastic. Thank you! ##### Drew B. Stayed 9 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Therese C.

This house is fantastic! Everything has been updated, remodeled, etc. also, it is literally a 3-5 minute walk to the North Forrest area of Coligny Beach- we effortlessly spent hours at the beach each day and it was a blast. The house has tons of room. Our group included two families, 4 adults and 5 kids (ages 10-20). Everyone loved their rooms and felt like we were in the lap of luxury all week. The large open concept family room/kitchen was the hub of our families day to day activities. The kitchen was exceptional and our outdoor space including the spa and pool was a decadent luxury to the end of our beach days and a wonderful convenience for everyone on the trip to enjoy at any time. The saddest part of our trip was leaving. We love Hilton Head and it would be amazing if this was our permanent vacation home every time we visit Hilton Head Island. ##### Anne-Marie F.

It was our first trip to Hilton Head and it did not disappoint. If I had to do it again, I would stay here. The pool is big and was the perfect temperature. The house is very comfortable and welcome and had everything we needed. The walk to the beach is short and direct and were happy to see how close it is to the town too. Everything you need is within walking distance including restaurants, shopping and even a grocery store. I saw a comment on another post that the house wasn't cool in the summer but we did not have this experience. We were there during a very hot time (July) and the house was cooled perfectly and enjoyed the ceiling fans as well. We took are dogs with us and had a nice neighborhood to walk them, a fenced area around the pool for them to be with us, and we were even allowed to take them on the beach (during the summer after 5pm to before 10am.

Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jun 29, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great small family home Positive: Great, short walk to the beach, nice pool, nicely stocked kitchen, adequate washer/dryer, nice sized rooms. Less Positive: house was not vacuumed, we had to clean clog in vacuum to use. Once repaired we swept up 2 canisters of dirt. Also the air conditioner struggled to cool to 75 and rarely hit the set point of 73. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura B., Charlotte, NC May 23, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### This location is everything we were looking for. The property itself is what we expected from the description. We were able to walk or ride bikes to shopping, restaurants and the main beach. We had access to a more private beach within a short walking distance, as well. Day trips in the car were also easy. So glad we were able to visit this property. ##### Laura B.

Great location and house, a short walk to the beach and Coligny Plaza. Minor issues with cleaning service that we communicated to management company. ##### Daniel K.

Apr 23, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Location The house is in the perfect location - directly across the street from the beach and \*just\* down the street from the crowded downtown. You can keep to yourself and feel alone on the island or enjoy the hustle and bustle of Coligny Plaza. ##### Paul J.
