Wonderful place to spend a week
This house had everything you need to make beach fun and less stressful- there was enough glassware, cooking pots to help make wonderful meals. Also helped to have starter packs of soap. House was such a wonderful place to spend a week- we will be back!

great multigenerational get together
We had a wonderful long weekend at this house with 8 adults and 5 children across three generations. The house was clean, very well appointed and roomy enough for our large family. Rental from Akers-Ellis was smooth and they were very responsive to questions. We particularly enjoyed watching the birds come and go from the lake at the back of the property. A gem.

Beautiful home !!
Thank you for letting us stay at your beautiful home! We had a wonderful time with our family. We loved how the house was laid out. The view was spectacular. We love watching the birds fly in and out in the mornings. We also love playing pool in the evening. I would recommend this house to anyone. We really enjoyed our stay. Thanks again!

Spacious home with pool
Thoroughly enjoyed our annual week long stay with 8 adults and 6 children, 6 and under! We have vacationed on Kiawah for years and this house was one of our favorites! It was spacious, clean and well maintained with the exception of a broken small refrigerator upstairs. We enjoyed cooking in the kitchen, splashing in the pool and watching for alligators, deer and other wildlife. The walk to the beach was a little long for our small ones, but is easy biking for adults and older children. Loved the beach gear credit! We'll be back!
Marsha S. from Charlotte, NC - 8/10/2019
Thanks for your feedback. Our maintenance team can take a look at the upstairs refrigerator. We do advertise the home as a 8 minute bike ride to the beach. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the home and the beach gear credit!

Yellow throat
We had a great vacation at the yellow throat property. The house was beautiful. The pool and deck was great. Just a short ride to the beach on the bikes. We also got nine of our bikes at no additional cost with the VayK gear. I would highly recommend this property and will be visiting again

I will be back
I have stayed in many Kiawah homes, some more expensive, but this is my favorite. Lovely open home, sunroom is fabulous. Very comfortable bedrooms, huge refrigerator (so often the frig is small for the house, great nature views. Located right on the bike trail it is 5 minute bike to beach which my kids loved. The pool is simple but nice and located adjacent to the kitchen so you can keep an eye on the kids and the decks are large. I would definitely be back to YellowThroat.

Everybody's Happy
Fourteen of us (three generations) were charmed and giddy about everything this home had to offer. We had a three acre pond less than a hundred yards from our back patio. In the morning a variety of sea birds flew in and out of the pond. We were a ten minute bicycle ride from the beach on trails that meandered though lush, natural vegetation. Our first visit to Kiawah won't be our last.

You're always anxious about the unknown until you enter the property and see it in person. All of us were more than pleased.
