Property Details Property Details
This bright and beachy 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom Sparrow Pond Cottage accommodates up to 7 guests in comfort and style. A true home away from home, this Kiawah Island cottage boasts a large wraparound deck with a charcoal BBQ grill, an enclosed four-season Carolina room, an enlarged kitchen with Le Creuset pans, and a beautiful, blue-and-white interior with Anna French Roman shades.


This one-of-a-kind Kiawah Island rental is decorated by the owners, a bestselling author and his wife, who is a beloved children's book reviewer. You'll feel as if you are transported back to 1950s when you walk into this cozy beach cottage and nestle into its comfy overstuffed chairs surrounded by bookshelves filled with beach reads. But cozy does not mean old fashioned. You'll find plenty of USB ports, a wireless charger for those who forget their own, two Smart TVs with all the streaming apps installed, and super-fast, Xfinity WiFi throughout.

Renters rave about the well-equipped kitchen, the painted pottery plates, the Keurig coffee maker, and the new, large capacity washer and dryer. The kitchen has been generously enlarged and updated. There are two large skylights for extra sunlight, plus the beautiful Carolina room which gives this cottage a breezy, open feel. New reupholstering, new bathroom fixtures and mirrors, new kitchen pots and pans, new linens, hand-selected art, and carefully curated beach books round it out.

The primary bedroom offers a new king bed, ensuite bath, and flat panel television. Bedroom 2 is furnished with a queen bed and bedroom 3 includes a bunk bed with a twin bed up top and full on the bottom to create a flexible sleeping space for either 2 or 3.

A large, wraparound outdoor deck starts with a pair of new Maine rockers to enjoy and there’s plenty of room to barbecue and eat on the back deck. Best of all – and certainly fun – this original Kiawah beach cottage still has its outdoor shower on the upper deck. That means you can look up at the trees and sky as you shower or clean off the sand after a day at the beach (which, by the way, is just a short walk down the quiet, twisting road that takes you through the beautiful oak and pine trees of Sparrow Pond).

The Sparrow Pond Cottages are island vacation rentals set in a serene setting in the West Beach Village next to the Cougar Point golf course. They are an easy walk to Kiawah Island’s 10 miles of beautiful beaches. They are on the island’s bike path, and they have access to hours of family fun in the private community pool. Discover the best of Kiawah Island from this central location. West Beach Village is located nearest to Kiawah Island’s main gate and is situated around the Cougar Point Golf Course and Clubhouse. West Beach is Kiawah’s oldest neighborhood with meandering boardwalks, mature maritime forests and a charming, Lowcountry island vibe.

Summary: A special cottage with an easy walk to the beach, a bike ride away from Freshfields Village, The Sanctuary Hotel, Night Heron Park and Kiawah Island’s world-class golf courses and tennis, and a short 40-minute drive to historic downtown Charleston.

1023 Sparrow Pond Cottage Wooded View
1023 Scaup Court was wonderful for our group of 6. It had all of the kitchen items anyone would need, was clean and a really short walk to boardwalk 1. It has also had a ton of books which were great for our beach days.

Our Favorite Cottage
We've been coming to Kiawah for 30 years and have enjoyed all the places where we stayed. But yours stands out as one that is so cozy, comfortable and inviting that it is hard to leave. We like the cottage-style warmth. Thanks for all the great touches -- numerous reading lamps, plenty of charging stations, quality kitchenware, and art that made us smile.

Sweet little cottage
What a sweet little cottage. It's so comfortable and feels like home away from home. We loved the outdoor shower and the rockers on the porch

A perfect stay in a lovely cottage! We highly recommend it! We loved the large central room for relaxing with the family or reading the many books and magazines! On the terrace: A parasol would have been appreciated, as well as a place to put wet beach gear out of sight.

The cottage was very peaceful, clean, and well decorated. The location was also convenient being walking distance to the beach and the west beach conference center.

Lovely! It felt like home. The linens, kitchen utensils, and family room. More than anywhere we’ve ever stayed. This was our first time at Kiawah and we loved everything about it.

Beautiful Home
Thank you for sharing your lovely cottage home with us. It certainly had all the comforts of home and felt as if we were staying with family. The décor is charming, especially the artwork, comfy chairs that swivel, and writer’s desk. And you cannot beat the location! It was so convenient to walk or ride bikes to the beach and West Beach felt so completely private. We had such a relaxing time that we tried to stay an extra day but the cottage was booked. For sure we will be back!

Cabin in the woods, but close to beach and golf!
Wonderful cabin in the Sparrow Pond area. First time stay in this part of Kiawah and we really enjoyed it. Cabin was nicely appointed with good kitchen supplies and great washer/dryer. TV set up was easy to use. Nice outdoor patio on the side and great rockers on the front porch. We enjoyed our stay.

Lovely home close to the beach
This was such a comfortable and lovely home. It had everything we needed and it was literally 5 minutes from the beach! It is nestled in trees and when you're outdoors, you feel like you are in a tree house. I will definitely stay here again!
