Overview

Nestled on the shores of Bufflehead Pond and alongside the fairways of the Osprey Golf Course, Bankside comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests in a spacious and exceptionally maintained main home and separate studio. Bankside on Kiawah Island boasts a serene and seamless connection to the outdoor surroundings with walls of French doors and windows, loads of natural light, and tranquil lagoon views from both indoors and out.

The main home features a grand double entrance and modern, open layout with two beautifully appointed living areas anchored by a custom dining table, and a large gourmet kitchen with high-end appliances and all the essentials to cater for a crowd. An adjoining mudroom complete with a washer/dryer, rinse shower, and plenty of space for your beach gear is a bonus for your beach vacation.

As the sun sets on your day of Kiawah Island adventures, this luxury Bufflehead Pond home comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests in the main home and private studio. The primary suite is located on the main level of the home with a king size bed and luxury private bathroom with his and her vanities and a large walk-in shower. Two additional guest suites are on the upper level, each with queen size beds, private bathrooms and beautifully decorated for a night of comfort. The 4th bedroom is located above the garage and accessed by a covered breezeway.

The studio offers a quiet space for large groups to spread out and features a queen size bed, twin bunks, en-suite bathroom, and a small kitchenette area. If you’re looking to work remotely from the South Carolina sea islands, look no further! Bankside offers guests a quiet and private home office to switch with ease between work and play while on vacation.

Kiawah Island’s outdoor lifestyle can be enjoyed from home at Bankside! Whether you’re rocking on the front porch, dining alfresco with golf course views on the rear deck, playing games in the yard, or wildlife viewing around the pond, you’re welcomed with golf or lagoon views, and the tranquility of Kiawah Island.

The Vanderhorst Plantation is a private paradise nestled between East Beach Village and Ocean Park on Kiawah Island. This tranquil plantation boasts maritime forests, marshlands and lagoons, beautiful stretches of beaches and an abundance of wildlife away from the crowds for a true barrier island getaway. You're perfectly placed to enjoy the best of Kiawah Island's championship golf only minutes away at the pristine Osprey Point Golf Course and Peter Dye's Ocean Course, or a short drive away from Turtle Point or Cougar Point Golf Course. Vanderhorst Plantation is only 4 miles from the top attractions of East Beach Village including Night Heron Park, Kiawah Nature Center, the Roy Barth Tennis Center, and luxury dining and shopping at The Sanctuary Hotel at Kiawah Island Golf Resort.
