Summary:

798 Marlin Drive - Resort Access Included



The Space:

798 Marlin Drive | Fripp Island, SC



Completely remodeled and beautifully designed, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home offers the perfect blend of coastal comfort and island convenience, with golf course views out back and the Atlantic Ocean just across the street.



Step inside to a stunning living room featuring a shiplap vaulted ceiling and a decorative fireplace (not for guest use), creating a bright and welcoming gathering space. The open dining area includes a table seating eight, plus four additional stools at the eat-in kitchen island, ideal for meals and conversation.



The fully updated kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances, a wall oven, and easy access to the back deck and side stairs, making indoor-outdoor living effortless and allowing you to enjoy the scenic golf course backdrop.



Three bedrooms are located upstairs. One features two queen beds with a private ensuite bath with a walk-in shower. The remaining two bedrooms are furnished with king beds and twin XL trundles and share a hall bath with a tub/shower combination. One of these bedrooms also offers access to a private deck, perfect for a quiet morning coffee.



Downstairs, guests will find a comfortable den with a queen sleeper sofa, along with an additional bedroom featuring a king bed with twin XL trundle and a private ensuite bath with walk-in shower, providing a flexible and private retreat.



The garage has been transformed into a fun hangout space with a pool table and dartboard, while an outdoor shower is available for easy post-beach clean-up.



With its fresh remodel, spacious sleeping arrangements, and prime location near the beach and golf course, 798 Marlin Drive is an exceptional choice for a memorable Fripp Island getaway.

Getting to know Fripp Island:

Located 20 miles from Beaufort, South Carolina, Fripp Island is a gated, private island, comprised of about six and a half square miles. The views from Fripp Island are unlike others in the Sea Islands, as Fripp is the most seaward of them all.



Take advantage of the many amenities that Fripp Island has to offer. Fripp Island offers a wide variety of food and beverage options for your enjoyment. With two championship golf courses, five pool complexes, 12 pickleball courts, six tennis courts, and three-and-a-half miles of uninterrupted beach, Fripp Island is an unspoiled treasure. The island also has a full-service deep-water marina, bicycle, paddleboard, kayak, boat, and golf cart rentals available.



Fripp Island is a designated wildlife sanctuary and home to many whitetail deer and other wildlife. You will be sure to see them as you enter the island gates.

When we arrived at 8pm at night with 4 kids after travelling for 8 hours, the host, Fripp Island Resorts team, Ken Gurrero cancelled our reservation at the last minute, had Fripp Island security come to kick us out of the property. I was attempting to contact VRBO to get help and Ken kept calling back saying that if we didn't get out of the property immediately he would call the Police, and he did 15 minutes later while i was chatting with VRBO support the police arrived. Instead of fighting this major disaster with 4 tired and hungry kids, we got a hotel for the night. Needless to say our Spring Break Family was a disaster because of Ken Gurrero and Fripp Island Resorts.
Sheriff showed up to escort us off the property
