19 Wren Drive

From Our Guestbook.......What Our Guests are saying......

2008

Your home is beautiful and we had a great week. My favorite is the pool overlooking the marsh - so relaxing and what a great location - so close to the beach and South Beach. Thanks so much. We hope to return.

We had a great vacation. All of the kids had a great time and so did the adults. The house was wonderful! Thanks again.

We had a fantastic time at your beautiful home! From biking to laying out by the pool or just simply relaxing in the house, it was everything and more than we could has for. Thanks so much for sharing your house with us!

Thanks for a great vacation. Your home is wonderful for such a big group. We felt right at home.

Another wonderful family vacation in Hilton Head. We have been coming to Hilton Head for 18 years & everytime special memories are made. Four generations enjoyed your lovely home. Thank you for opening your home to "guests."

We regretted that we couldn't stay the whole week but next time we intend to! Everything was just wonderful! Hope to be here next here. I love the pool!

It's been six years since we had your house and we love the improvements. We had wonderful weather and lots of fun on the beach and on our bikes. We had some sick kids (and adults too) but overall had a nice time. Watched the fireworks from across the street and met some of your nice neighbors. Thanks for opening your beautiful home to us.

This is our 3rd stay in your lovely home. We love the renovations. We also found the new rental agency very helpful and professional. We were lucky to have near perfect weather and everything else was lovely. Thank you so much - we hope we'll be able to return next year.

2007

Great week again at 9 Scaup and 19 Wren. 2 wedding anniversaries and 2 birthdays celebrated. Loads of good family fun.

We had a great week at 19 Wren, with plenty of room for 6 adults to stretch out! Did lots of fishing & swimming & eating & biking. Brought tennis racquets and golf clubs, but found the lure of the pool too strong for athletic endeavors.....

Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. It was a perfect place for the 12 of us, 3 families. The kids, 17 (turned 18 while here), 14, 13, & 10 loved the pool! The lagoon view was perfect for our handicapped dad/grandpa to watch the fish jump. He also enjoyed the pool action! We all enjoyed the beach with perfect weather every day.

Thanks so much for allowing us to enjoy your home. It was great to have all of [our] family together under one roof. Your home is so spacious and comfortable. We rented bikes and rode to the beach and village, so we had our much needed exercise. Thank you for your generosity.

2006

Another wonderful week in Hilton Head. This year we think we enjoyed 2 "English Homes" - 9 Scaup with 2 families and 19 Wren with 3 families. The proximity was great. Walking around the lagoon was perfect to get between the homes. We hope to return in the future.

We had a wonderful 2 week vacation here in Hilton Head! Grandma, Grandpa, their daughter and her 3 children, along with their son, his wife, and their 2 kids were all here to enjoy the wonderful weather! We especially LOVE the trails for running & biking and of course the beach & pool. The kids had so much fun at the beach, pool, & at the "Sandbox" museum, and also the water park. We love the walking distance to South Beach and even saw the fireworks from there for the 4th. We really enjoyed how roomy your home is, & loved your kitchen! HH has always been a wonderful vacation for us all!

2005

Our family has enjoyed your beautiful home for 4 yrs. and really appreciate all the very special extras you have provided for all your guests! We have visited HH Island for many years and stayed in many different places, but this house, your wonderful home, is absolutely the Place to Stay! Thank you!

...We love the house and appreciated the well-stocked kitchen, filtered water and the air-conditioning system (it has been very hot, but beautiful days with no rain). It was great cooling off in the pool when returning from the beach. Thank you for sharing!

We would like to thank you for using this amazing home over Memorial Day weekend. It was a great way to visit with old friends from college and spend some quality time on the beach. The weather was wonderful (not too humid) & a nice breeze was always on the beach. Again, thank you.

2004

We were here yet again for Thanksgiving with some of our family. The new kitchen counters and appliances are great and we had a wonderful time. Weather - some rain, but lots of sun, too. It's certainly worth the 12 hour drive from Pittsburgh!!

Thanks for letting our family use your home for the Fall Break. Everything is beautiful, cozy, etc. from the home, pool, beach, restaurants, etc. Boy, we even saw so many dolphins at the beach. Unbelievable... but awe-inspiring.

[We] have returned to your beautiful home to enjoy a wonderful week on H.H. Island. It is worth the very long trip from our home in Central Va. just to stay in this delightful house!

"Our precious week." I cannot tell you how very much we enjoyed your lovely home. For us, this is a joyful family reunion. We travel to Hilton Head from Ohio and Connecticut and we share so much love and laughter and wonderful memories are created. I must comment on the beautifully equipped kitchen. We love to have dinner together, all eleven of us, and meals were prepared in a breeze! Thank you for a wonderful vacation and we hope to stay here again next year. P.S. We filled the bird feeders and watched the show.

We had a great time in your wonderful home! Eleven of us here for family reunion....Thanks for sharing your beautiful home and may God bless!

2003

We've had a lovely visit - the fall weather has been spectacular - the osprey are busy catching fish in the lagoon, the squirrel is dashing around building a nest and the wrens are happily singing. [We have all] loved the layout and well-equipped kitchen. Thank you again!

We loved your house. We will always remember HH because of the wonderful home you have...The memories are awesome. The pool was great. Our pictures will be so awesome just because of the surroundings. I loved the palm trees. The breathless setting is so wonderful. This was a cozy place. Even w/its large size. My daughter and I really loved it.

We had a wedding rehearsal dinner party Sat. evening. Much of our family stayed in the house all week and your house was perfect for us. Upper B.R. was boys/mens dorm, we (parents of groom) in master B.R., elderly aunt in other B.R. on main floor, groom's sister and husband in downstairs B.R., two teenage boys in downstairs den. Much activity during week. Everyone loved your house. It really made the wedding week a memorable event. Thanks for the memories! Your wonderful home was filled with family love and laughter!

Couldn't have gone better. We will return.

A lovely week; a lovely home.

You have a beautiful house!

We love the house! It was well stocked and very comfortable. The pool was a delight. This has been the best house we have rented here in Sea Pines. It is a great family retreat. The weather was perfect!!!

This was definitely the nicest house we've rented in Sea Pines. We entertained all week for my husband's company. Then the Easter weekend our children came from Atlanta, Athen, and Rincon, GA. Grandchildren also had a great time. We all went to the Heritage every day, also beach and biking. Hope to come back here next year. Thanks for being so considerate.

2002

Thanks so much again for letting us use your beautiful beach home - our family (at least 9 of us - 4 missing) gathered here for Thanksgiving and another week! Our weather was chilly, but it was still still great to be here. (We're going back to lots of snow in Pittsburgh tomorrow morning.) This is such a great family home... We hope we'll all be back soon....

...We loved the weekend - we hope to be back!

We love your house. We have rented here in HHI many times & never been in such a lovely home! Thank you for leaving the kitchen so well equipped. We had a week of mostly rain, but during sunny intervals we loved using the pool. Thank you.

We enjoyed this house immensely - it was perfect for our group....We had wonderful weather: rain one day but sunny & not too humid all the other days. We went to the beach in the morning and lounged by the pool in the afternoons. This is our second annual trip to HHI and we will definitely try to get 19 Wren Drive again next year. Thank you for keeping your lovely home so well stocked and equipped for your visitors!

We loved being back in Hilton Head for our 16th year and we had a great time here in your home. We spent most of our time in the pool just relaxing. It's a special summer for us because our oldest daughter is leaving for college in a few weeks and our younger daughter begins in high school. Having us all together here was wonderful. We certainly enjoy your home!

We had a great week here. Nine of us... Weather was warm - low 90s and sunny. Saw some spectacular lightning a couple of evenings, but days were perfect. Played a lot of tennis, spent a lot of time in this wonderful pool and at the beach. Took [the boys] to the skate park at Arrow & Palmetto Bay - very cool park. We really enjoyed the birds at the feeder; they're very tame. It's a beautiful house and we really enjoyed it! Thanks Mom & Dad for bringing us all here!

[Our two families from different parts of the country] had a great week. The house is great. My 10 y.o. daughter screamed when we arrived that she wanted to live here forever! We had a reunion of 6 families from college... all split between 3 houses. Awesome gathering.... We hope to make this an annual event! Thanks!

We've had another lovely vacation at your lovely home.

This is our second time at your wonderful beach home - and we're coming back with all our children and grandchildren to spend Thanksgiving! We were with six others from our high school class - really old friends as we had our 50th Class Reunion here last weekend. Fabulous time. This is our 34th year of coming to H.H. It's really our beloved second home - you've really done a great job thinking of so much to make it so comfortable here. (Love the chairs!)

2001

We had a wonderful time once again! Can we come back every fall break? This [is] the perfect tome of year to visit your warm, comfortable home on this wonderful island! Thanks for sharing with us.

Your home has made our annual trip to ... H.H. very special this year. Our family of five + seven (adults) was very comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed your spacious home. The pool made it extra special! We hope to return next year.

Once again we had a wonderful week here in Hilton Head. Your home made it great, too! We love to relax in the pool or sit and look out on the peaceful lagoon. This is our second time here and we've already planned to come again next year. We have wonderful memories to take home with us!

We enjoyed your home very much! The view of the lagoon is lovely! The floor plan is unique and perfect for our family. Our 3 grown daughters slept downstairs, while our son and a fried claimed the loft. Grandma and Grandpa joined us the last 2 days, so the second bedroom on the main floor was a great place for them. Everyone had the privacy that they needed. The pool area is a great place to relax after a fun morning at the beach. We hope to purchase a home here some day. Thank you for all the little extras like the spices in the kitchen and the beach chairs under the deck. Of the three houses and 3 condos that we've rented, this one has the most amenities.

We had a lovely week. We especially liked the pool and the beautiful view. Your home is very comfortable and spacious. We hope to be back next year.

What a great vacation. Three families in this wonderful vacation home. Great time cooking dinners and swimming by the pool, biking & beaching. It was hard leaving "The Happy House," but the .... group need to head home.... 4th of July fireworks on the 18th Green by the lighthouse was a memory that will last a lifetime. Thanks for a wonderful home!

What a wonderful home & setting! Our non-profit economic development organization hosted existint and prospective industry officials throughout tournament week and they were truly impressed. Putting our best foot forward cam easily in such lovely environs. Thank you.

What a wonderful 4 months! We rented the house sight unseen and it was perfect. We named it "the happy house" as it looks and feels happ. We loved it in Hilton Head aenought to sell our house in Atlanta and buy a house here....

2000

[We] thoroughly enjoyed your home! .... Hope to come back again. Thank you for sharing this treasure! The weather was perfect! The house was perfect! Thank you for sharing your house with us!

We were here with our whole family - seven of us - and loved all the bathrooms. We have rented many houses in Sea Pines and yours is one of the best. We loved the view and the pool. We hope to be back soon.

This has been one of our best Hilton Head vacations yet! We had a wonderful week of good weather to enjoy with our family and friends. We've admired your home from the outside and were so happy to find the inside just as nice. The pool and deck area were great to relax in and to enjoy the view. For part of the week our friends from Pittsburgh... joined us. They'd never been to H.H. so we had fun showing them around. The rest of the week it was all family. We hope to be back again next year.

We're leaving too soon...too many memories are yet to be made! 2 days in this lovely home is certainly not enough, but what a great time we've enjoyed withour good friends [above]. After spending a week in the Outer Banks, we drove 9 hours to H.H. to bring our 16 year old son to visit a friend for a week while we stayed here for a few days. What a great location and wonderful home this is. How lucky we were to have good friends include us in their vacation plans!

We've had a wonderful weekend in your lovely home. Our family has enjoyed all the many things to do here in Hilton Head. Have been here for the last 5 years over this weekend. We appreciate your sharing it with us.

Our stay was great. Weather cool, sunny with two days of rain. Too cool (pool) to swim - but kept busy otherwise. Easter Sunday cooked lamb, asparagus, etc. for 3 generations. Kitchen well equipped and we treated it like home. Multiple levels and bathrooms are great for different age groups. Great house.

What a lovely home. We have enjoyed it soo much. Our daughter was married today at Crowne Plaza and everything and everyone has been wonderful in helping.... Thanks again!

1999

We all enjoyed your lovely home. The weather was so beautiful and our group all had their own bath. We are four generations - 3 great grandparents, 2 grandparents, Mom & Dad and baby.

Thanks for sharing your wonderful home with us. It was perfect. Everything we needed was provided. We loved having 6 bathrooms, so no one had to share! The weather was perfect and we enjoyed the pool and the beach. We hope to come back next year.

Thank you very much for opening your home to us. We had a wonderful time. The weather was very hot - The pool was geat!! The house was perfect for the children. The kitchen was stocked perfectly for large families (dishes, pots- pans, etc.) We are looking forward to next year! Thanks again.

We enjoyed our stay. Your home is very nice! I kept everything tidy and your birds fed. We've been coming to HH for around 12 years. I appreciate having everything we need. Thanks!... Everyone had a nice time. Weather "Good/bad." Thanks again for sharing your home. P.S. We filled the Bird feeders and watched the show!! All good wishes....!!

We had a wonderful time! Loved the house and especially the pool. Hope to come back next year. The weather was very hot, but it did not rain. Thanks for sharing your home!

Lovely week - perfect beach weather! We enjoyed your wonderful home.

We have had a wonderful time in your lovely home with our three daughters and sons-in-law and three little grandsons. We especially enjoyed all the space when it rained for 3 days! We've tried to take care of it like we would our own homes. We are talking about coming back in September... Thanks for sharing!
