Fantastic!

Our host Leanne, was super helpful and everything could possibly need and much more in the loft. It was the cutest place and located just down the road from Harbortown, which is so much fun! Saw several deer and their babies right next to the seal loft! She even provided beach chairs and umbrella, which we used every single day at Sea Pines Beach

Sealoft is an amazing retreat!

Sealoft was an amazing retreat for us. We felt right at home before we even arrived with the superb communication from the owner. We were late arriving but the check in process was still simple and efficient. Sealoft became home for a week as soon as we arrived. The kitchen was great, bed comfortable and the outside spaces amazing. We loved to sit on the porch and drink coffee and listen to the wind blow in the pines above. Sealoft's location is also great being close to Harbour Town. Plenty of nearby restaurants to either walk, bike or drive to. We really enjoyed CQs just down the street from Sealoft. The biking trails are excellent so be sure to rent a bike. I was able to reserve easily through the Seapines website and they deliver and pickup. The beach is close by and we went before 10:00 in the morning and were able to park at the Seapines beach club. It did seem to fill fast and then you park at a different lot and the trolley brings you back. If you have bikes, its only about 15 minutes to bike to the beach. We absolutely loved Sealoft and will definitely be back. We need a relaxing week and that's exactly what we got!

Perfect!

Perfect choice to stay right beside Harbourtown, especially if you like the feel of being in your own forest among the deer and the birds singing. All within a 10-minute walk to the harbour with all its restaurants and shops. The treehouse accommodation is charming and above-all well equipped and absolutely spotless. There is absolutely nothing the owner hasn't thought of in making this a true home for her guests. Even the decor and exhibits the charm of its host. Perfect!

Cozy Sea Loft @ Deer Island

This Sea Loft was perfectly located for us. It was within walking distance of Harbor Town, and the deer came right up to our loft. We cooked most of our meals at the loft with the great amenities. The trails were great for bike riding, and the little shops were cool. Our host, LeeAnn was awesome. We can't wait to return for our next adventure.

Beautiful Loft In The Woods

What an adorable, eclectic little loft! We absolutely loved waking up every day surrounded by woods and deer. The nature trail at the end of the road was an unexpected bonus which we walked nearly every day. The loft is exactly as pictured with tons of little eclectic details in every room. The only suggestion, if even possible, would be to put a gate or door in front of the spiral staircase. It kind of made us nervous every time we walked into the kitchen. The loft itself was very clean with a nice, cold AC. All in all it was a very memorable and relaxing vacation, a perfect couple's retreat. I'm so glad we found it.

Ideal location

As others have stated, the location is perfect. It is peaceful (no neighbours on the other side of the wall) and the surrounding nature is so lush. We have stayed in the Sea Pines area for 8 years and now prefer this spot. It is awkward to get downstairs with laundry, but it's not a deal breaker for us. I do wish there was a screen on the door so that on nice days the fresh outdoor air could come in. I appreciated the bits of everyday needs in the pantry and the abundance of plates and bowls to choose from, but it meant that there are no empty cupboards for our own food and supplies. Would we return? Absolutely. Thank you Lee Ann, you are the perfect host.

Quiet Escape

Staying at Deer Island Sea Loft was a pleasant surprise. Right beside the busy Harbor Town area is this almost untouched nature area with homes in the trees. If you are looking for a rustic stay in nature with all the amenities you need then this is the place for you. Our loft was beautiful and clean with a host that made us feel very welcome. We will be back again!

Cozy Retreat

My husband and I enjoyed a week in this cozy cottage. It was exactly as described in the listing but even better. The home was clean, well equipped and extremely comfortable for the two of us. The location is ideal - steps away from Harbor Town - but tucked away enough to allow for a feeling of privacy and quiet. The cottage has two well equipped full bathrooms and an adorable what appears to be newly renovated kitchen. We loved coming back to the cottage in the evening and enjoying time in the spacious but cozy living space. We felt as though we were in a tree house. Lee Ann was extremely accessible and responded promptly to all of my requests. We look forward to booking this property on our next visit to HHI.

Enjoyable Winter Break

My wife and I stayed for three weeks in February as a winter getaway. Check in was easy and Lee Ann was extremely helpful and friendly throughout. She definitely goes beyond the norm to make sure things are okay. The unit can sleep up to four, but two would seem to be a better comfort level for the size of the house. The double decks were very pleasant for reading and relaxing during the pleasant afternoons. The bathrooms are small, but functional and the same can be said for the kitchen space. The house is very close to the busy Harbour Town area, but its location on Deer Island isolates it and makes for a very quiet and enjoyable atmosphere. It is an easy walk to the shops and the lighthouse. Walking and biking are very accessible from the house and it is a short drive to the beach locations. We had a very nice stay and certainly did enjoy the deer and wildlife throughout as well.

Cozy and Unique Thankfulness

Thanksgiving was amazing at this Deer island treasure. The well stocked kitchen to cook meals, to the great cozy comfortable beds and main room to watch the Macy Day parade on a rainy morning with our older children. The majestic pine forest surrounding the multi level deck was enjoyed by all especially the daily visits by the deer family. Location is great. Walk to Harbor Town nightly for sunsets and a great nature trail at end of road. Owner communication was superb and so helpful , her island recommendations were great and beach access suggestions were welcomed and used by us. Our family Thanksgiving was was lovely because of the comfortable unique home. We will recommend this SeaLoft vacation destination to friends and family for sure. Perfect place to rest and reset as well as make new memories.

I've stayed in 5 different Deer Island houses in the past. This one has the best layout by far. It feels open and roomy. And the quality of the linens in the master bedroom was not lost on me! One more thing - this house was the best-equipped short-term rental I've ever stayed at in 25 years - every spice you can think of, foil and plastic wrap, plastic containers for leftovers, and on an on. It was a pleasure and we had a blast.
