We overall had a pleasant week in this unit. Below are some comments which I hope you might find helpful. First, some pros: 1. The unit is unique in that it has four bedrooms and 2 1/2 bathrooms. This was particularly nice for our family of now 4 adult couples. 2. The unit was well-equipped with kitchen amenities and adequately equipped with bedding items. 3. We were able to gain access into the unit well before the check-in time of 4:00 pm, which is a great plus for vacationers with a carload of cold groceries! Now for the cons: 1. The listed address of ”1021 Sparrow Pond” is inaccurate and misleading. It is not an address acknowledge by any GPS system. 2. Reviews of this unit on the internet claimed that it was “dirty”. We found the level of cleanliness to be fair, but I am attaching pictures of items as an example of people’s postings on the internet. The first is a literal pile of sand beneath a rug that has to be pulled back to enter the master bedroom. The second is a picture of the mold and mildew in the shower curtain in the master bath. Mold was also very obvious in the second shower as well. image1.jpeg image2.jpeg (Unable to insert photos on this platform) Overall, our visit was good. Hopefully these comments might helpful for them to improve this unit and the service.

Ended up leaving prescriptions in bathroom drawer. But Hillary from ESPM was excellent and overnighted them out to us. She was great to deal with thru the entire process.Will definitely use ESPM again on our next trip to Kiawah - which hopefully will be soon! Highly recommend.

We rented bikes and never got in the car as everything you need is on this Island and biking is so easy with all the paths. Cottage was nice and the Island is beautiful. The management company was prompt in reply and easy to work with. Very pleased with our stay.

It is very close to two different beach access areas and the pool. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! The rental agency was amazing and very organized. The house comes with all the amenities you might need, which made it easy to cook dinner or even wash a load of clothes!

The condo was in great shape, well decorated with a wrap around deck.. It felt much larger than it was.. The island itself was stunning and our condo was very close to great beach entrances and a pool and tennis club(one of many on the island). We look forward to visiting again and would definitely stay here again and would recommend this place and ESPM to anyone.

I called the property manager twice with no reply. Someone did come to the house but never came back. There was only 1 key in the lock box and there was supposed to be 2. They never resolved it and did not contact me again. The space was adequate but not as large as I expected. The kitchen was small - not big enough for multiple people to be cooking together. The pots and utensils need to be replaced. They are well used and although a rental still need to be usable. We made the best of it. The towels provided were literally one per person (wash cloth, hand towel and bath) with a few bath under the sink. Thank goodness for the washer. Listing said coffee pot not keurig but it has BOTH. And although listing says beach towels provided there are NO beach towels. What I did like is that the bedrooms are in the 4 corners of the house but with doors open everyone was still together. The house was cleanish. Everyone has a different standard. The owner should consider more than just a broom - maybe a swifter wet or hand vac for light cleanup for the renters. Walk to the beach less than 5 minutes. Very private. We did sit by the pool once to enjoy the sun without the wind. The cougar golf course is literally a 4 minute walk away. All the courses were great. Strong suggestion read the paperwork you get and order food for delivery. The food store is a disaster the day of checkin. We had a total of 5 people. If I had 6 or more I would pick another house. The main bedroom had a private bath. The other 3 rooms share a small bathroom with shower. There is a powder room that was helpful but more than 6 would be tough sharing the small shower.

Overall the cottage was okay but the bathroom access was not very convenient. No closet or dresser in one bedroom. Also the deck sliding door would not lock.

Fourth bedroom beside half bath has no closet or storage for clothes. Needs more hooks for hanging towels and bathing suites. Need more towels and better quality towels. All mattress need an upgrade.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved the location and the short walk to the beach, and appreciated the use of the pool for our grandsons. The unit was clean and had a good layout. It was cozier and smaller than I had hoped for, especially the kitchen. The garage and outside area was ideal in storing stuff out of sight from the road. Rearranging the 2 vehicles was a tad cumbersome. Was a bit disappointed in the singular tub since we used it as the master bedroom bathroom AND the grandkids bathing area. The kitchen was nicely set up and easy to use and store things. The wraparound deck was great for our grandsons. The decor was delightful, but the number of pillows was too abundant. It was delightfully airy and attractive. We had a delightful stay. Was disappointed in the lack of drawers and places to store things out of sight, but loved the abundance of televisions!

Reviewer Comments: Overall, this was a lovely, clean & well maintained cottage tucked back amongst the trees which provided cool shade.Really enjoyed the screened porch. Would recommend the following to the new homeowners; more towels and large dinner plates & additional wine glasses would be nice. We were a party of 4 & there are 4 bedrooms so obviously meant for larger group but we had 5 large dinner plates & 8 large towels for a week stay. A welcome book with directions to secluded pool would be very nice as well for guests. ESPM provided only one key but were quick with response when we contacted them, & property has lock box. We very much enjoyed the beach, dinner at 46 Wine Bar at Freshfields & Bike riding the community.

The shops should stay open till later in the evening, during the summer. We went into Charleston for dining, not many places on the Island.

Our second trip to Kiawah Island and we love the Sparrow Pond neighborhood. This cottage has a quiet cul de sac location, with short walk to pool & beach. 4 BR floor plan and amenities met our needs nicely. Some furniture showing wear/stains. Convenient parking, gear storage & outdoor shower underneath cottage was a plus. Included credit for beach gear rental worked out great too. ESPM property manager provided excellent communication leading up to and during our stay.

Is the management company trustworthy and reliable? Having just concluded our weeklong stay at 1021 Sparrow Pond, I can enthusiastically assure you, have no fear!

ESPM was simply superb. The process was simple. Their communication was excellent from start to finish with a friendly and professional demeanor from all members of their team. The property itself was in a excellent location. A legit 5 minute walk (tops) to a gorgeous beach. About as close as you can get on Kiawah to Freshfields. The furniture was comfy in the living room and bedrooms. The abundance of books and games was a nice touch. The deck space was very generous. There was lots of storage beneath the unit. The outdoor shower was very helpful (and even warm). Know that the kitchen is tight. Pay attention to trash days.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay at 1021 Sparrow Pond. The property was well maintained, clean, and comfortable. The 4 bedroom with a common space layout of the property was perfect for a family vacation and not spending all day inside. The large wrap-around porch was ideal for late spring dinners outside. We enjoyed the close proximity to the beach, neighborhood pool and other island amenities.
Lastly, we can't say enough good things about ESPM. They provided clear communication in advance of arrival, responsive to questions, and even with the chaos of the PGA Championship week, were able to accommodate a last minute request for cleaning mid-stay.

Just right for our ladies golf trip.

We absolutely loved this house for our family. The location was excellent and we arrived to a very clean home! We loved that the home is light and bright with a great sofa & chairs in the living area and a nice larger TV. It’s a great quiet street!

Furnishings and decor are stylish and simplistic. As a parent of a toddler, I appreciated that there were not a lot of breakable knick knacks or sharp edged furniture, etc. It didn’t take much to childproof. The closet built-ins and lack of bulky dressers in the bedrooms made them feel much more more spacious. The short walk to the beach was perfect and we enjoyed riding bikes around the island. As a whole, the house was clean but we did have to wash the top blanket in the master bedroom after discovering what I believe was coffee stains and hairs on it. Next time I would inspect more closely upon arrival rather than being surprised at bedtime. I know some people pack their own bedding and that may be a better practice. Overall, we truly had a wonderful experience and would absolutely stay here again.

The house was clean and well equipped for our family. It was a short walk to the beach and there were plenty of bike trails. Kiawah is breathtakingly beautiful! We will definitely stay here again.

This was our third time staying at Sparrow Pond Cottages and was by far our favorite property. It has been nicely renovated and was spacious for our family of six. The only downside was the community pool was closed the entirety of our stay.

Beautiful setting and wonderful accommodations! Great weekend.

There were three of us staying at the house so we each had a bedroom and one of us had a bathroom ensuite. The house looks like it has recently had an update and they decorated it so cute. It's a very comfortable house and the kitchen is well stocked. It's a short walk to the beach and the back porch is a nice place to have coffee in the morning and wine in the afternoon. The neighborhood is very quiet and peaceful. We will rent it again next year for sure!

were well received by our kids. We participated in the Turkey Trot! The rental was spacious, clean, positioned well on the island and updated. Hillary was very responsive!
