When I first found River’s Edge Retreat, I thought WOW this is too good to be true. There must be a catch! But it’s the real deal and even more amazing than described online. Nicole is a 5-star host - thoughtful, gracious and always responded to our messages within minutes. She went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and memorable. There was even a wonderful welcome package waiting for us when we arrived! And checkin / checkout was a breeze.
The house is absolutely incredible, spacious and pristine - decor is stylish with lots of lovely touches and local design/products, beds are comfortable, showers are hot with great water pressure. Plus, everything you could possibly need is onsite - high speed Internet, fully stocked kitchen with coffee, tea, spices, oil, tin foil, condiments, ice, dish washer detergent, cleaning supplies etc. All five bathrooms have shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and one with full laundry facilities! Even fire wood is provided!
The private, stunning property is ideally located a few minutes away from beautiful, historic Saint Andrews and St. Stephens. During our weeklong stay, we went whale watching, toured Kingsbrae Gardens, and hiked to Table Top Rock, but we rarely wanted to leave the property’s beautiful views, beach, pool, hot tub, and camp fire s’mores. Sea glass hunting was my personal fave.
This was by far the best Airbnb experience I’ve had and I can’t wait to come back next summer for another relaxing gals getaway.
