Cozy Dog-Friendly Inlet Cove Cottage for Your Perfect Getaway

Inlet Cove is a gated area located at the West end of the island by the Kiawah River. Inlet Cove cottages include a 25 meter swimming pool, boat dock and cookout area. Leisure trails allow quick access to the beach.

Our Inlet Cove cottage is nestled in the trees of Kiawah providing a feeling of privacy. There is only a short walk to the beach or to the Inlet Cove swimming pool and dock area located on the Kiawah River.

Our smoke-free cottage was totally renovated in early 2019 with a new kitchen, bathrooms, and flooring. We have wireless high speed internet access. We have TVs in all bedrooms and in the living area. There are books, games and puzzles available on our shelves for curling up with after a day on the beach.

Family time

We have been staying in Inlet Cove for more than 30 years and it never lets us down! This cottage was no different. The property is so cozy and comfortable; the kitchen is very well stocked and this was important as we love to cook. I loved looking through the scrapbook as it let me know how much the owners also love the island.

Fabulous Accommodations

Very inviting, comfortable, well-equipped cottage in a great location. We enjoyed the pool ... But the short walk to the beach worked out great... Our favorite hangout 😎 One suggestion would be to consider replacing the king sized bed mattress...but overall...we so ENJOYED our stay & would definitely come back!!😁

We thouroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. It was perfect for our family to meet before our daughter and son in law begin their next adventure in NC. The house has been recently renovated and was very clean - even comes equipped with all of the kitchen supplies you would need. Highly recommend this property!

Inlet Cove...best Kiawah neighborhood

This is a great unit. It is super pet friendly. The owner has mastered the art of providing an updated, well supplied kitchen with nice appliances and decor. The check in process was super efficient. Inlet cove is quiet and a less golfy experience than much of the west beach area. Definitely would like to visit again.

Wonderful getaway

We loved staying at Maggie's cottage. We cooked a full Thanksgiving meal in her kitchen and were very comfortable hosting dinner for our family. We loved being so close to the beach, which is magical. Having our dogs with us was a huge bonus. Our dogs just loved being able to run around on the beach with utter freedom. We rented bikes for the week and biked around everywhere, including the beach. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Sweet Home beautifully remodeled and very animal friendly. We had a wonderful week. Easy walk or bike ride to beach. In Covid, great kitchen for hanging and cooking. Had some issues with receiving mail for check in, but owner called me and resolved quickly. Delightful conversation too! Highly recommended!!

Family vacation

Our family cooks many meals and the kitchen was the best stocked kitchen in a home that we ever rented. The location is perfect and you can easily walk to the beach as well as to the inlet to watch the dolphins strand feed. Maggie was very responsive to any questions we had. We appreciated bringing our fur babies with us too. I was fortunate to see a momma sea turtle as well as the babies released into the ocean.

Lovely Kiawah Island

Great location just outside of the Kiawah property. Very short walk to the beach from the house. The house was super with just the right amenities for our stay. Comfy beds and lots of space for all of us. Maggie is a great host. We had a minor issue with the cable TV when we got there that only the host could solve. Maggie was responsive and got it rectified!

Great family vacation

We are a family of 5 adults, with one originally from Charleston, who decided to try Kiawah after seeing the listing for 79 Belmeade on VRBO. What a fabulous experience. The owner communicated well and the directions were concise and accurate. Entry to the neighborhood and house could not have been easier! The home was comfortable and in a walkable, friendly neighborhood. Access to the beach was easy, convenient and safe. Amenities within the house were a treat (screened porch, workout equipment, cable, large showers, fully equipped kitchen, etc). We will absolutely rent from this owner again. Thank you for being a fabulous place to make family memories.

Good Location

This cottage was in a great location for the beach & access to Freshfields. It was also wonderful to be able to have our dogs with us. A few things were amiss, however. On our arrival at 4 p.m., the cleaning service was still on property and requested an additional 30 minutes to complete their service. Not a big deal, but honestly, I don't know what she was doing, just not cleaning. The cottage could use a good, deep clean. I know "dog friendly" will mean there is some wear and tear, but it was downright dirty. The floors were filthy, carpets could use a refresh and the bath mats and comforters didn't appear to have been laundered for a very long time. The refrigerator should be emptied also, there were so many condiments and food left behind - I understand not wasting things, but overall it just felt unkempt. The screened porch was absolutely filthy, the furniture (not what's pictured online) was moldy and the grill had no propane - although I don't think we would have cooked on it anyway. It needs replaced. Additionally, it would have been nice to know of the construction in the unit next door - we would have stayed elsewhere. It started before 8 a.m. on Monday morning, and continued every single day until after 8 p.m. It was very disruptive for the dogs, who barked constantly while we were in the unit on the weekdays, so not very relaxing for us. It was nice to have our dogs with us, but not exactly the trip we planned.

Wonderful dog-friendly Kiawah retreat!

Great introduction to Kiawah. Easy, short walk to the beach and close to shopping and restaurants. The unit was immaculate and well-appointed. Kitchen had a full complement of pots, pans, coffee makers, etc. Beds were comfortable and linens were well-maintained. We had a great visit and will definitely be back!
