Groovy Grove
About
Two Wings. One Very Cool House.
Room to Gather. Room to Unwind. A covered breezeway splits Groovy Grove in two: the main house on one side, a quiet all-bedroom wing on the other, so two families or three generations share a stay without sharing every room.
A Beach House in the Trees. Groovy Grove sits in a grove of old live oaks, and the house was built around them rather than through them. Inside, the great room runs two stories up, bright white shiplap with a wall of windows so the green is always in the room. The bedrooms are quieter and warmer, lined in honey pine. Airy where everyone gathers, cozy where everyone sleeps. A beach house that happens to live in the forest.
What Makes It Groovy.
A covered breezeway between the main house and a private guest wing
A vaulted great room with exposed beams and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace
Bright painted shiplap in the living areas, honey pine in the bedrooms
Windows on the maritime forest from nearly every room
Several screened and covered porches, plus a bar and outdoor TV
String lights strung between the live oaks
Propane patio heaters for cool mornings and evenings
A sun deck beneath a live oak limb draped in Spanish moss
Protected forest out back, deer most evenings
The Great Room. The floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace anchors the room, and the oversized sectional gives everyone a place to pile in for movie night, games or a lazy afternoon out of the sun.
The Loft Everyone Will Want. Overlooking the great room, the loft has two double beds, a twin, a sofa, coffee table and large TV beneath its white shiplap gables, plus a half bath right at the foot of the stairs. Part sleeping room, part second living area, and the spot the cousins claim before the bags are unpacked.
A Layout Made for Families. The main wing includes the great room, well-equipped kitchen, a bright sunroom with a long farmhouse table, the loft and a downstairs king suite with a soaking tub overlooking the trees.
Across the breezeway are three additional bedrooms, two queens and a rear bedroom with a double and twin, along with two separate full bathrooms. The rear room connects through one of the queen bedrooms, making it convenient for parents with younger children. It also has its own deck entrance, so nobody has to pass through to come and go. Another opens onto a private screened porch of its own.
Easy Living. Groovy Grove is made for long days and slow evenings: coffee on the porch, cards after dinner, everyone drifting in from the beach. Drop your bags, put your feet up, and you are on vacation in about four minutes.
Quietly Tucked Away. Close to Everything. Groovy Grove feels wonderfully removed from the busy world, yet its central location keeps the Maritime Market, marina, ferry landing and island beaches within an easy golf cart ride.
Come Find Your Groove. Past guests have called Groovy Grove "the most tranquil home on the island" and their stay "pure perfection." Come for the beaches and adventures. You may leave talking most about the breezeway, the porches and those evenings beneath the trees. Groovy Grove is dog friendly so everybody in your family is welcome!
Fresh linens and towels are included in the cleaning fee.
