We had a great time at Kiawah in July. The cottage was perfect for the five of us. Very clean. Steven and Sarah were responsive and welcoming.

My family has been coming to Kiawah for 37 years. Riverhouse is one of the best homes that we have rented. The house was super clean and beautifully decorated. The furniture was also very comfortable and accommodated eating and playing games well. This is where family memories are made. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.
4.0 / 5.0
The home was beautifully decorated, and clean. It’s not often you get a king sized bed in two of the rooms.
My only complaint was the washer leaked water, which the man who came to look at it didn’t have a part, so we couldn’t use it, and the washer and dryer were very, very small and didn’t hold much at all.
Props to the management team who were quite prompt in their responses to our texts and emails.
All in all a great trip!

Overall we felt the property was very fine and enjoyed our stay. We have stayed on many, many properties throughout Kiawah over the years (probably at least 15!)
The rental was beautifully decorated and very clean!! Only a few suggestions for improvement/optimal maintenance:
1) master bedroom needs a bureau or something with substantial pullout drawers; there were tons of hangers in the closet which we appreciated, but something’s are better suited for placing into dresser drawers
2) couple hanging racks were loose/broken (master toilet paper holder and kitchen paper towel dispenser) (also a previous repair to the master towel near master sink was crooked and poorly fixed)
3) master bath sink was very slow to drain…constantly having to wait and then cleanup sink after use
4) was not able to use the keurig as it needed descaling (so the machine said) and was burping/not usable; the Mr Coffee however worked for us fine (just had to buy ground coffee and put away the keurig pods we had brought with us)
5) maybe this is expecting too much (but we’ve always had this available in other rentals), but no hand mixer (cream cheese and butter frosting for our cake was challenging consequently). Called and asked if perhaps we just weren’t looking in the right place, and was told one wasnt stocked in the kitchen
6) pillows on the couch would consider updating perhaps as they were a bit worn
picky stuff perhaps, and passed along just to make better for the next guy…we overall loved it!

The Riverhouse was perfect for our family of 4. It is beautifully decorated and had plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. Our kids loved fishing at the neighborhood dock and our pups loved going for walks around the neighborhood. We will definitely return!
5.0 / 5.0
Great stay over the Easter holiday! This is our fourth trip to Kiawah, and we were a bit hesitant to leave East Beach. However, Riverhouse won us over. The house is in Inlet Cove, a quiet neighborhood that is tucked away, but is convenient to everything we needed. It’s a quick trip to Freshfields for shopping as well as a short walk/bike ride to the beach. We also loved the community boat dock for launching our kayaks. The house is beautifully appointed with enough room for everyone to have their own space. We especially enjoyed dining on the screened porch while watching the magnificent sunsets over the river – so special! There were thoughtful touches throughout: ample hangers, candles, and the couch was super comfortable! We also appreciated having a grill. The communication from the owners before, during, and after our stay was top-notch. Highly recommend and we can’t wait to come back again!
4.0 / 5.0
We had a great time. This home sleeps six very comfortably; the den area could use two new chairs to sit comfortably; the two they have are incredibly uncomfortable, making hanging out as only a family of four hard. I cooked breakfast one morning; there were only two sautee pans to use, and they were awful and could not take heat without burning...It would be great if they updated with a few new pots and pans. Everything else was excellent. Check-in was easy, and communication was perfect. The only reason we would not return is the den not being a great spot to hang out together at night and be comfortable.
5.0 / 5.0
Loved this house! Plenty of room for my family of 4 and fur baby. The location is in a private neighborhood. The house is exactly as it is pictured online. The property was clean and well maintained. We walked the dog to the beach everyday. You can’t beat the location that is a short drive or bike ride to Freshfield Village. We went for spring break so less people were there which made it even more relaxing. The owners responded very quickly to any questions that we had about the property before renting. We are definitely planning on renting again.

We stayed here with our family of five and highly recommend it. The beds were incredibly comfortable, the kitchen had everything you would need and the place was spotless. The beach is a quick bike ride or walk (we rented bikes) and the pool and dock area are pristine. We didn’t swim as it was March, but did try the hot tub. I would recommend this place without hesitation. Thank you!
5.0 / 5.0
We spent three days at River House. The home was very clean uncomfortable. We didn’t cook much, but the kitchen seemed to be a well stocked. It was just a short walk to the beach and close to the grocery store and shopping. The communication with the property management company was excellent. We would definitely consider staying again.

Great home, beautifully decorated with great location. Would highly recommend. Great communication from owners. If interested in golf trip, they are not part of the Kiwah resort for discounts.

Riverhouse is a beautiful property. Updated kitchen and baths. Amazing decor for a rental property. Layout is perfect. Owners suite on one side.. 2 other beds and joint bath on other. Central living space had ample seating for us all! Property manager was reachable and immediately responsive!!

We needed a few days away and this house was perfect for our needs. Accommodations were clean and comfortable. We enjoyed a walk to the nearby public beach and access to other beaches on the island. The home is located a quick drive from shopping and dining choices. We were happy with our stay!
5.0 / 5.0
This is a terrific home in a great location in the Inlet Cove section of the Island. Easy drive to Freshfields and a short walk or bike ride to the beach. The screened porch was perfect for dining as well as a great place to relax during the day. We really appreciated being able to bring our dog. Plenty of room for all of us.
5.0 / 5.0
We had a fantastic stay for the Kiawah Marathon. This home is in a perfect location to walk (avoid the road closures) for race day and only a short walk to the dock and water. Everything was clean and well organized, will stay again!

Riverhouse was perfect for our family of five. Everything about the home was perfect and a great location to the pool/dock and beach and a beautiful view from the home of the low country. We would recommend and stay here again and the hosts were always quick to get back to us whenever I had questions. Highly recommend!

We come to Kiawah every year and this is one of the nicest properties we have rented. Lovely, well-kept property. Super comfortable beds. The only negative was the ceiling fan in one bedroom was so noisy that it couldn’t be used. Not really a deal breaker. Would definitely rent this property again.

Had a couple minor issues but they were handled timely.
Would rent again.

We just got back from 4 days in Kiawah and had a great stay! Riverhouse is the perfect retreat for a family (and dogs) to get away for some quiet time. Location was great- community pool was really nice and proximity to restaurants was great. Would stay again!

We had a very nice visit to Riverhouse. The home was clean and beds very comfortable. Our only suggestion would be more silverware and some grill tools. We enjoyed the proximity to the pool and dock area.

This is a beautiful place! It was so nice and peaceful. We decided to stay on the location more because of the nice walking paths and doc. Places to fish and just hang out. It was a great stay!

This was our first stay on Kiawah Island, and Riverhouse was a perfect location. We used the community pool and rode our bikes 5 min to the beach. It was perfect for our kids and had everything we needed. We also enjoyed the proximity to a Harris Teeter and multiple restaurant options.

The property was really nice with plenty of room. I liked that we could reach out with any questions and there was always a quick reply. Having access to Kiawah resort was wonderful! We enjoyed easy access to biking trails and the beach.

We love Inlet Cove and this cottage was the best so far. Nice and clean, a bit of a view of the marsh and river, great beds and perfect location.

We love the Itrip team and nothing wrong with the house- it’s just very dark inside. Home never gets natural light. Kitchen lacks enough dining utensils. And no CURTAINS! Get ready to live in a fish bowl when the lights are on- which is all the time haha.

3.0 / 5.0
Our family enjoys Inlet Cove and has stayed in various cottages over the years. We had never used iTrip Vacations and were impressed with the level of service.
This house is pretty - however, it lacks function.
No window coverings in the bathrooms. No dresser in the master or double full. The closets don’t have user friendly shelving. The washer and drier set has about one-third the capacity of a standard set. There are about 3 dozen wine glasses - yet only 6 sets of flatware and 8 coffee mugs. The Roku TV in the guest king does not connect to the internet (apparently this is a known issue).
Hopefully the owners will invest in furnishing/appliances that make it more functional for active families.
Huge potential but definitely a miss for us.
5.0 / 5.0

Great spot! Perfect for a family of 4. Comfortable and clean. Great location right by the gate to the island. Really nice that it comes with a gate pass. Would stay again.
