About this house rental
Frippin Unreel just went through extensive renovations and the calendar was just opened back up!
Frippin Unreel is a marsh front 3 bedroom, 2 bath home (with 4th small bunk room that has a twin bunk bed) located on Fripp Island, South Carolina. We are set back in a quiet neighborhood that has its own pool and crab dock. The house is less than a 5 minute golf cart ride to the beach!
Check out the highlights on Frippin Unreel's Instagram page to see more photos and videos of the house and area.
Rental includes a 4 seat golf cart, a 6 seater golf cart, tandem kayak, fishing and crabbing gear, beach/pool gear, and a state park pass. The house has fast internet with smart TVs in den and three bedrooms. There are books and games for guests to use under the TV in the den.
Frippin Unreel is in a small community on Fripp Island that has its own community pool (no amenity card needed). The pool is open early May - early October (exact dates depending on weather) and is just down the street.
The house is just steps from the community’s private crabbing dock with amazing views of the marsh. Only those in our community can use that crab dock, plus there are several others around the island for your use (we have a welcome book with places on the island mapped out).
Wildlife is abundant all around the island. You will see many deer, alligators, racoons, and beautiful birds. Fripp has walking and biking trails all over the island. The island has several playgrounds in addition to the private playground in our community.
A state park pass is included with the rental. The state park pass will get everyone from one car into Hunting Island State Park for free. Hunting Island State Park is right before you get on Fripp and provides so much to explore.

Frippin Unreel is one of the most well stocked homes we have ever rented for vacation. We were there for the Thanksgiving holiday 2023. The location is very central on the island, and the views of the marsh from the back of the house are gorgeous. The beds are extremely comfortable. Everything is up to date. The golf carts are really nice! Both of them. If we had been there for a summer stay, we wouldn't have had to bring anything extra. It's all there! The owners were communicative and helpful. The living space is small, but that is the only thing I could even think of to say about this house that could be a disadvantage. We would definitely rent this home again

Our stay was excellent. There was not a single thing else we needed except for little more sunshine. House is excellent and beautiful views. We rarely left the island as the kids loved riding around the island in golf carts looking at wildlife and exploring the many different parts of island. We Will no doubt return and highly recommend!

Perfect Place
We had a wonderful stay at Frippin Unreel. The location is quiet and beautiful, with the marsh view. The house really couldn’t be better. It is so clean and bright with pretty but comfortable furniture - especially beds. All household items and appliances are clean and working and the kitchen has nice spices and pots/pans and knives. There is a great binder with recommendations, and Deidre was so kind to offer additional information on the area when asked. The golf carts are in great condition - and make it so easy and fun to check out all of the special spots on beautiful Fripp. Thank you Deidre!

Exceptional!
We have been coming to Fripp for years and years. There are only a handful of homes we would rent again. Frippin Unreel is among our top picks! Great home owner! Great views! Great accommodations! Great location! The house was clean and had a warm, homey character. We wouldn’t hesitate to rent again! Frippin Unreel has got a great thing going! Thank you again for sharing your oasis with us, and we hope to be back soon!

A relaxing family getaway
We had a great time at this house. The kids loved the bunk room, the living room furniture was super comfy, and the porch was delightful. We saw deer out the back every day and even watched a rainstorm from the comfort of the porch. Deidre was amazing! She checked in the first day to make sure everything was ok and was quick to help when we lost the community pool pass. We took many golf cart rides around the island and borrowed the boogie boards in the garage to play in the waves. My kids appreciated the toys and books that were available for them at the house. I appreciated the welcome binder with lots of insider tips about the island and things to do. Overall, it was a phenomenal trip!

Frippin’ Unreel was Frippin’ Unreal
The house is great and my family had a blessed time. We have been coming to Fripp for about 10 years and this is the best house we have stayed in. Not the biggest house but by far the best equipped and perfectly sized house for my family of 6. Would book this property again, no doubts!!

Beautiful House and Great Stay!
I've been coming to Fripp for 30 years now and this was my favorite house we've ever stayed in! It was beautiful and well cleaned when we showed up. The owner (Deidre) was extremely responsive and helpful. My two young kids were so excited to see toys left in the bunk room and my in-laws couldn't get enough time on the screened in porch. It's in a great location we like with the community pool and that it's a quick golf cart ride to the beach. The house came well stocked with everything we would need for a week away. Overall we loved this house and hope to go back! Thanks for the great stay!

Beautiful Home
Thank you for sharing your home with us! It is very beautiful and in a great location, not close to beach but in a quiet part of Fripp and there are 2 golf carts provided so very easy to get to the beach and to cruise around Fripp Island. This house is very clean and had everything we could need for our stay. Owners are very responsive as well and checked on us to make sure the house was what we expected. We have been to Fripp several times and Highly recommend this home and will be coming back when it is available! Bonus you get to see deer out your back deck every day. Thanks again

Almost “Unreel”!
“Frippin Unreel” was almost “unreel,” it was so above expectations! First and foremost, the owners’ high level of detailed communication put me at ease. They were amazing at pre-stay, during our stay, and post-stay communication. Although we had no rental issues, I felt assured that I’d we did, they would handle it immediately, no matter the time of day.
My family has been renting homes at Fripp (at least 2-4x year) since 1996. It is truly our home away from home and, unfortunately, not all rentals feel that way. This was not the case with this home. The photos quite honestly did not do the home justice! The marsh view was superb, the home was well stocked, right down to a first aid kit. It was amazingly clean. Also, their golf carts were a real plus - fast, quiet, and a smoothe ride! The neighborhood is quiet and quite peaceful and we found the private crab dock and walkway perfect for telling our kids some spooky stories at dusk, as well as crabbing! If I could rate this property a 10/5 I’d do it in a heartbeat!

My new happy place!
Love, love, love everything about this property. The house is spotless; the furnishings are comfortable, new and lovely. The view of the marsh from the screened back deck is gorgeous. We saw a deer family in the backyard one morning! The owner was so gracious, responsive and accomodating. She even checked to make sure we arrived safely since we had to drive through bad weather. We loved having the golf carts to take to the beach and around the island. The kitchen is very well stocked with nice new appliances. We had a wonderful time here and cannot wait until we can return. I highly recommend this property.

The name says it all! Frippinunreal is an understatement! Don't walk, RUN to this property!!! We were visiting the Island to see my son who is currently interning there. No detail is left unturned. There are even labels for the lights (which was needed as there is so many)! lol This is a beautiful home, very clean, has a great view, and is in a great location. Communication with the owner is fantastic so check in and check out was super easy. The kitchen was sooo fully stocked that we were able to cook several of my son's favorite homecooked meals. We felt like we were back home in Michigan in our own kitchen. The entire house has everything you need. Just bring yourself, clothes and food! Would rent this property 100 time over!

Beautiful, well-stocked home with Low Country views
This house offers an incredible, relaxing marsh view from a large screened porch with ample seating, a fully-stocked kitchen, and all the supplies needed for a fun day at the beach. My family had a wonderful vacation due largely to this beautiful house.
