About this house rental
Our 5-star reviews say it all......Footprints is the perfect oasis and paradise for your vacation! From the moment you arrive, the house is designed for your fun and enjoyment!
Footprints in the Sand boasts the best of both, incredible ocean views in the front of the house along with amazing panoramic views of the Ocean Point Golf Course behind the house. Guests consistently rate Footprints with 5-stars and most say it is the best vacation rental house they've ever experienced and that Footprints "Feels like home". The housekeeping team ensures the house is pristine upon your arrival.
I designed and built the house to include every feature I felt was missing in a vacation rental. All rooms have views of the ocean and either access to a private balcony or the large Southern porches. The main floor has an exceptional open floor plan with a large family room, half bath off the foyer, open dining area and large master bedroom and ensuite master bath. The spacious and well-equipped kitchen is designed for large family gatherings with lots of counter space for helpers, double stainless steel ovens, dedicated ice machine, French door refrigerator and an extra tall mini fridge for overflow groceries. Chefs love the kitchen and a Weber grill is also available for outdoor cooking! The Master is upgraded with Posturepedic bedding, high quality sheets, hypo-allergenic pillows and flat screen t.v.,. The huge ensuite bath has an ADA seamless tile shower, soaker tub and a nice walk-in closet.
A golf cart along with four high quality adult cruiser bikes (plus bikes for the kiddies), nice quality beach chairs, beach wagon, beach toys and high quality beach towels all come free with your rental. If your stay is seven nights or longer, two weekly amenity cards are included. Additional cards can be purchased through me, unlike other Hosts on the Island. The new owners of Fripp Island have added a mandatory 12.8% fee ( of the base rental rate only) for ALL PROPERTIES on the island.
The new fitness center is open and our beach access is less than a 2 minute walk to the best beach access on the island with an easy ramp (not a long boardwalk) for strollers and walkers! Don't be fooled by crowded "center island" or Tarpon locations, with no room to spread out and no beach at high tide. All pools are less than a 5 minute golf cart ride and faster by car.
If you need to work remotely and we hope you don't....but if you do...... there's a dedicated desk in the upstairs loft also with incredible views while you work.
Times are stressful and Footprints in the Sand is the perfect place to get away, relax and detox on this private island we call "Paradise"! We strive to ensure your safety and housekeeping adheres to CDC guidelines for cleaning and all duct work has been cleaned and sanitized for added comfort!
Footprints in the Sand is a professionally designed and decorated 5-star rated home by over 70 guests with fabulous beach and wildlife views! House is designed with hotel quality floors, quartz counter tops/sinks/faucets in kitchen and all baths, new fireplace surround, newly painted etc. Enjoy our close beach access to go back and forth to the house when you're at the beach! I LOVE the beach, but hate packing the "stuff" for a great vacation. No worries, we provide toiletries like a hotel, hair dryer in each bath, all linens, usb ports in all bedrooms, a golf cart, beach chairs, beach towels, beach wagon and bikes for all ages! Exploring the island in the golf cart provided or on the magnificent bike paths with our bikes, makes for the perfect vacation. What better way to get away!
Our Property Manager and Housekeeper are top-notch and use CDC recommended anti-bacteria products to keep Footprints sanitized and clean! To assist in contact free amenity cards, our property manager even delivers your amenity cards prior to your arrival at no extra charge and is available and responsive during your stay. Our goal is to ensure you have the best and safest vacation possible!

Family of 10. Daughters, son- in-law and grandchildren , with my husband and myself. Pat answered my questions quickly, provided needed information and provided a recliner which assisted me with my painful back/ hip. The house was very clean with a well stocked kitchen. We were disappointed because there was a limited view of the ocean. Everyone loved the beach! was a limited v eqkitchen

We were lucky to find Footprints available for the week we were planning to host a family vacation on Fripp Island. Our group consisted of six adults and four children aged 12-14 years old. I am happy to report that all enjoyed a magnificent holiday on the island. Footprints is a beautiful, spacious, well equipped home that is perfectly situated to access the beach and other island amenities. The included golf cart was great and allowed us to easily tour the island. Because of the size of our group, we did rent a second six seat golf cart but the favorite was the sporty one provided by the owner. The pre arrival instructions were detailed and ensured that we would be well prepared to enjoy our family holiday. The owner, Pat, was terrific in answering all questions we had prior to and during our stay. Suffice it to say this property is special and we look forward to staying there again.

Our family had a wonderful time at this quiet home near the beach on Fripp Island. The owner was helpful with booking, prompt in answering questions and provided additional information to help us have a great stay. The house provided everything we needed to have a great week. The property manager was also responsive with questions during our stay. We would definitely go back!

The house had ample room for the nine of us. Plenty of private space and together space. The ramp was great for our son who is in a wheelchair. Beach access 1B was close and worked well for our son's beach chair and night beach walks.

What a wonderful time we (six sisters with 3 brother-in-laws) had staying at Footprints! The house is immaculate and the hosts have thought of everything. Loved having access to the golf carts and bicycles. Seeing deer in the backyard every morning was such a treat. Even though the weather wasn't what we had hoped for, we enjoyed our time together. Pat was joy to work with and checked in regularly to make sure we didn't have any questions or need anything. Would absolutely love to stay here again.

The house was beautiful. Quick walk to the beach. Communication with the owner was easy with quick responses. Our first time on the island and it was so fun. We had the beach all to ourselves. Couldn’t have asked for a nicer place to stay. We loved reading out on the front porch it is nice and shady with a lovely breeze and you can see the ocean. Would fully recommend.
5.0 / 5.0
The home is beautiful, well equipped, and very close to beach access. My family enjoyed time at the beach every day and the house was spacious and so comfortable. The house provides a golf cart, beach towels, bikes and a wagon to transport items to the beach. The property manager, Nancy is excellent and a pleasure to work with. The owner also called us to see if we needed anything. This is our 2nd time in the house and we look forward to many more!
Thank you Pat and Nancy!

We have stayed at many rentals on Fripp Island over the last 20 years. This house was one of our favorites...a few minutes walk to a nice and relatively quiet stretch of beach, plenty of space for the nine of us and an enormous living room/kitchen with a porch overlooking the golf course and a higher one in the direction of the ocean. My brother is an excellent cook and always picky about the kitchen rentals, how well-stocked they are etc and he loved this kitchen. Everything is clearly labeled, and the property manager and owner answered me immediately with questions. Golf cart AND bicycles included! (Not always the case). Plus lots of beach chairs and toys. All in all, we had an excellent week because the house was so great--makes all the difference for a stress-free vacation.

My family has been vacationing for many years at
Ocean Isle Beach, NC. We were looking to vacation someplace new and we are so happy that we found Footprints In The Sand.
Our stay was simply wonderful! From the moment I made our reservation everything went very smoothly. The communication with Pat was very, very good and everything was handled prior to our arrival just as she stated it would be.
The house was very clean and stocked with everything we needed for a wonderful, relaxing week of vacation.
We were very happy with our choice of a new vacation spot and we would definitely stay here again.

A lovely spacious home in a great location. Fripp is a beautiful island and has very nice amenities. Footprints was nicely appointed with beach chairs, bicycles, beach toys, beach towels, carts. Everything you need for a day on the beach. Pat is a wonderful attentive host. Would consider renting again

Our week at Fripp was fantastic! Pat was super helpful with all my questions prior to our trip, and exceedingly quick and attentive in responding to an unexpected issue and request during our stay. The location is great, and all the beach paraphernalia provided make packing so much easier! If additional grandchildren don't cause us to outgrow this house, we would love to rent in the future.

Our stay at "Footprints" was great. The house was beautiful, clean, and welcoming. Our family enjoyed the proximity to the beach, the various pools throughout Fripp, and the wildlife. Would recommend for anyone wanting to get away to the beach without having to be crowded. Plenty of beach to walk and enjoy!

We have spent three years coming to this beautiful house and it is absolutely amazing every time. This house is the perfect fit four our party of 9 (two families with 5 kids ranging from 4-10) and covers everything we need to have a stress free week at Fripp Island. We love hanging out in the spacious family room, playing in the backyard, playing games at the large table, and cooking dinners each night with ease in the kitchen. Kitchen is fully stocked with more than enough cups, silverware, and plates which is great. There’s even a fancy ice machine that the kids call “Fripp ice”. The golf cart is great for exploring Fripp Island, we’ve discovered something new each trip. We did many trips around the island using the golf cart and beach cruisers that’s come included. The kids love the nature center where they can see snakes, turtles, and sometimes little gators. There’s a few shops for souvenirs and even a little general store at the front which came in handy. There are so many beach towels, toys, and chairs so you do not need to bring anything at all. The beach across the street, only a short walk away, is one of the biggest features of this listing. There is a new beautiful boardwalk too which helped with getting to the beach right near the house. Every room has balcony access and there’s nothing like waking up and going out to the many comfy chairs that are out there and taking in that beach sunrise. Pat is absolutely wonderful and the property manager, Nancy, as well. She is so easy to get in touch with and ready to help if needed. We have done day trips to Beaufort and Hilton Head and also visited some of the surrounding islands and of course the deer roaming around Fripp Island never gets old. We just absolutely love it here and will continue to make this a go to vacation! This is a truly magical place that anyone would be lucky to stay at!

We LOVED our stay at this house. Very open layout, really large kitchen, double-ovens were handy, the porch views and porch furniture were amazing, the street was quaint and quiet and the beach access is something like just 5 houses down (easily walkable from the house or can park your golf cart near the access point). The bedrooms were all quite spacious and plenty of bathrooms. The communication between Pat and the property owner were flawless. We hope to come back in the future!!

Our group consisted of my husband who is disabled and in a wheelchair, my son and his girlfriend and my three friends. We all fit comfortably in the house and it is well equipped. Beach access is so close and the views from the porches are spectacular. While the ramp is very steep, we always make it work in his power chair. No complaints and we hope to be back soon!

We stayed at Footprints on Fripp Island. The house is beautifully decorated and you have everything you need to make your stay enjoyable. Pat, the owner, answered all of our questions before we booked through VRBO and made sure everything was perfect. The house was clean and ready for us when we arrived. We were close to the beach and enjoyed the short walk. A golf cart is provided as well if you aren’t up for walking. This house has everything you need to have a restful and fun getaway. Thank you Pat for sharing your beautiful home with us. We had a wonderful time!
2.5 / 5.0
This was our family's first trip to Fripp Island and the owner of Footprints really thought of EVERYTHING to make our stay enjoyable. The house was beautiful and minutes from the very wide and private beach--perfect for our bocce ball competitions. Our grandson loved throwing his casting net into the tidal pools.
Communication with Pat, the owner, and Nancy, the property manager, was the BEST. They each texted us several times to assure that we were enjoying our vacation.
We all enjoyed putting together a 1000 pc. jigsaw puzzle in the bright and airy living area. And the portable pellet ice-cube maker was a definite hit with the kids. Each of the 5 bedrooms had its own bathroom which made life pleasant for our large extended family. The kitchen was well-stocked and spacious for our several sous chefs!
We all loved Footprints and would highly recommend staying there. We will surely be back.

We picked this home because of the proximity to the beach and the prior reviews. We were not disappointed, the home was ready for us upon our arrival, and was a fabulous place to spend the week. there were a few small issues that arose but Pat and Nancy were very responsive and addressed them promptly. The kitchen had everything needed for 14 people, the golf cart and bikes were a lot of fun, and all the beach toys and chairs were so helpful to have available. The front porch is perfect for an afternoon rest or morning coffee, and the beach and pools on Fripp are just beautiful! We would definitely stay at footprints again if the opportunity presents itself in our future travels, and renting from an owner as caring as Pat is an added bonus. We highly recommend as it was a perfect home for a large group. Thanks Pat for making your home such a welcoming and fun and clean vacation home for your guests!

Great VRBO experience beginning to end. Owner Pat is super responsive throughout the process. The property checked all the boxes and more! Extra touches like providing bikes, chairs, toys, beach towels were awesome. Lots of notes everywhere with instructions on how to use remotes, lights, appliances, etc were a nice touch. Great beach access, room layout, location. We LOVED it. Thank you Pat!

WOW - only one word needed!
This house was amazing. The communication with the property owner and property manager was spot on. They were efficient and professional. The house had every amenity that we needed during our week. The mattress and the bedding in all the rooms offered comfort and luxury of a high end hotel. The open floor plan made it easy to enjoy our meals together and family game night. We even appreciated the vaulted ceiling when we were doing some family karaoke! The beach access was an easy stroll and opened up to a large beach area. We loved that this area of the beach was not as busy as some of the others that we visited on the island. The house offered all the beach toys and chairs that anyone would need. If you are looking for a house that will offer comfort and ease on your trip, THIS IS THE ONE!! Pat and Nancy have done an amazing job and are there to help you along the way. I cannot wait to come back.

Best Trip Ever
This is our second stay at Footprints for Spring Break vacation. The easiest way to explain how much we love it here is to say we were already planning our next stay there WHILE we were there! It’s seriously the most perfect location and the perfect set up for our two families with younger children. The kids had the time of their lives and the adults were so comfortable and relaxed. Rooms/beds are comfortable, balconies are perfect for morning coffee or deer sightseeing, and the large kitchen made meals a breeze. As it was last year, golf cart is a huge plus for exploring the island and we actually explored more this time and found even more cool spots on the island. Beaufort is a must for the day and we had a fun dinner at Morgan River Grill on a neighboring island. Pat is also so wonderful and made the whole process so easy. We LOVE it here! You won’t be disappointed with a stay at Footprints.

Spring Break
Spring break at Footprints! Pat was wonderful and made the rental absolutely seamless. The house was on point with all we needed for an enjoyable stay from the beach towels, beach chairs, bicycles, golf cart, ice maker, outside grill, a chef’s kitchen, amazing master bedroom and huge on suite to the ocean views from the balcony of the upstairs front bedrooms. Did I say it was handicap accessible?! We might have to bring Grandma next time. Footprints has it all. Footprints beach access was super close. We literally were the only ones on the beach 2 of the days we were there. Shhhh don’t share this with anyone because we will be back.

An amazing location on an amazing island
This place has it all. Even when arriving in off season there is so much to see and do while exploring Fripps Island and being in this beautiful home just makes the trip that much better. Clean through and through and very comfortable sleeping arrangements. Choosing this home is a win win and I am sure others will enjoy it as much as my family did.

Pleasant vacation home near beach
The property is pleasant and easily accessed from the main gate on Fripp Island. It is an easy drive away from the marina and has views over one of the Island's two golf courses. Beach access is at POA 2 (about 6 mins from house) as POA 1 is currently washed out. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes, pots/pans and other essentials. Beds are comfortable; only two bedrooms (upstairs) have partial views of the ocean. No ocean view from the main floor. Weather was cold and windy so we spent a lot of time in the main living area of the house which is comfortable and roomy.

Return to Fripp after 30 years
As a young adult I came with my Father, siblings, small children and grandparents (4 generations) to Fripp. I have not been able to return for ~30y. When an opportunity to have a family vacation to the beach, now as the oldest generation, I knew it had to be back to Fripp. I came with me 4 kids, their spouses/significant others and our new granddaughter (3 generations).
The Island did not disappoint and was everything that I remembered.
The Footprints House was PERFECT. Moments from the beach with very easy access. Full use of golf cart that took us everywhere we needed. Very clean, well equipped (even with walker for grandbaby and plastic dishes/spoons/etc.), spacious to easily hold the 10 of us with room for more, great internet and TV so the guys didn't miss any games while we were there, wildlife and incredible views just outside the doors, etc.
I would recommend to anyone.

Friends and family mahjong group trip
Fripp Island and this property were perfect for our trip. Plenty of space for 12 women. The views are great from the house along with the proximity to the beach. We enjoyed golf cart rides to pickle ball and bike rides. Loved that these things and chairs and beach towels were provided. We had not visited Fripp before and we all loved it. Will hopefully make it an annual trip!
