Frequently Asked Questions

We get asked about Palmetto Bugs all the time. Yes, these are roaches and found pretty much everywhere outside in South Carolina but we like to call them Palmetto Bugs as it makes them sound nicer!  They can be pretty big, can fly and will scurry around the floor but they are largely harmless. They do occasionally come inside, especially at night and during or after any storms. Rest assured all of our homes are professionally treated quarterly for pests. Any bugs that manage to get inside will die quickly.

According to Eric Benson, Ph.D. professor and extension entomologist at Clemson University “It has nothing to do with cleanliness or the economic conditions of the area,” said Benson. “They could be around the nicest home or the nicest hotel or resort.”

If you leave the doors or windows open, especially at night, you will likely see a few. This is perfectly normal. If you see 20 or 30 all in one place then please let us know. This might mean we have a nest somewhere in the home and we'll need to get pest control out to take care of it. This is extremely rare!  

Please don't worry about bugs, enjoy your vacation. You'll likely not see any while you are here, we just include this note so you understand it's not unusual to see some and it doesn't mean the home isn't well looked after!

Reviews

Great Location!
5/5 stars
7 of us stayed at The Cottage on Park and it was a perfect rental for us! We especially loved playing games at the huge dining room table in the evening. Walking to Coligny and the beach was easy- even for Grandma who is 83! The beds were super comfortable and we found ourselves sleeping in longer than usual!
- Susan Garvey

Hi Susan, Thank you for taking the time to leave a 5 star review! We're so happy you enjoyed your stay and caught up on some sleep! We love how easy it is to walk to Coligny too! Sincerely, iTrip Vacations

Spring Break at The Cottage
5/5 stars
Just spent a perfect week at The Cottage On Park. Super cute place, equipped with nearly anything you could need and situated perfectly 1/2 mile from the shops/restaurants at Coligny and 5 min walk to the beach. The pool was clean and warm and outdoor shower was such a fun feature!! The house is cozy and adorably decorated - such a relaxing fun place to stay. We will be back for sure!! Emily

Great cottage in Hilton Head!
5/5 stars
We recently spent five nights at The Cottage on Park with family members, including a 13 and 10 year-old. Everything was as advertised and we were quite pleased. The location is excellent if you want to be near the heart of Hilton Head without the noise. The pool was small, but great. The outside grill was new and while the tank was empty, it was not an issue because there was a spare in the shed (and when we reached out about the empty tank, the office was very responsive!). The kitchen was was well stocked with utensils, etc. They could use some new frying pans, but overall, they had everything we needed and it easily accommodated our group of six. The house was well cleaned and charming. The pool and beach gear was well-stocked with chairs, a wagon to haul stuff to the beach, noodles, chairs around the pool, etc. The only complaint, which cannot be helped in HH is that the large oak tree in back constantly shed leaves and seeds in the pool and all around. It was hard not to track this stuff into the house and my only recommendation would be for a rug to be placed inside the sliding door so this stuff didn't end up around the house. That is a nit-pick. The house is great and we would not hesitate to stay there again.

Family fun on HHI
5/5 stars
We met up with our two adult daughters and son-in-law for a great getaway at The Cottage on Park. The house was just as described and what you see in the photos - beautifully updated and decorated, comfortable, clean and plenty of space for the 5 of us to relax and occassionally work remotely. The kitchen and grill areas had what we needed for eating in. We were glad to have a washer and dryer. The backyard patio and pool was a fantastic option for when we weren't at the beach which was just a short walk from the house. We also loved being a short bike ride from Coligny Plaza where we could pick up groceries, get ice cream or shop. The iTrip staff was very helpful and quick to respond when we had questions or a request.

Amazing place!
5/5 stars
Our family enjoyed a week at this awesome house!! We have always loved the North Forest Beach location, and this home was in an ideal location! A quick few minutes to walk to the beach, or a fast bike ride into Coligny for shopping, dinner or ice cream! We loved all the amenities at the house, including the option to heat the pool to our Midwestern taste :) , grill out for dinner, and the 3 full bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. It was perfect place for our family to start and return to each day! Everything was very clean and perfectly decorated to make it a relaxing stay! We had bikes delivered to the house and used the house beach wagon to head out for beach days! Would LOVE to return!
- Jessica

Thank you for the great review! We would love to have you back.

5/5 stars
We stayed here in October for one week with 2 other couples. The location is absolutely amazing and the house is so perfect. It is only a five minute walk to the beach and they provided a beach cart with chairs and even a cooler. We highly recommend renting bikes the bike trails are absolutely amazing. We played cards out on the patio right by the pool. Every night we received a surprise gift from the local raccoon on our front porch (poop)

Great home!

We had a wonderful week. The house was super well located to the beach and Cologny plaza and our grandchildren loved the pool. The house is very nicely laid out and very comfortable.

Perfect
5/5 stars
We loved this charming little cottage that lives large. It was perfect in every way for our family of five. It was beautifully decorated with plenty of space to spread out, cook meals, have another family over to cook out, play euchre tournaments , and just find your own nook to read. The private pool was such a treat to have in the mornings before we were ready to hear the beach and after returning from a hot day at the beach. The easy walk or bike ride to the beach and Coligny really makes this a five star property in my opinion. And added bonus was the beach location was not crowded so it was very easy to social distance. Will look to book this property anytime we visit HHI!

5/5 stars
Wonderful house. Great location. Well appointed interior. Only issue was the house to the right was having work done to the back including replacing the fence which was torn down mid week leaving us no privacy in the pool the last 3 days!
- Michael

Happy to hear you loved the house & location. We are so sorry about the fence. Unfortunately, they did not share their plans with the owners and we did not know they had taken it down until we arrived after you checked out. Needless to say, we were shocked to find no fence! The owner has ordered a new one to be installed this weekend.

The cottage was great. Location to the beach and Coligny was perfect. The cottage was very comfortable and the kitchen had everything you needed. The only thing missing was the Golf Channel that the golfers wanted on the rainy evening/day. Will rent again.

Nice house in a nice location!
5/5 stars
Our family (2 adults, 3 children) stayed at the Cottage on the Part the third week of March. Unfortunately, the weather in HH that week was a bit colder than normal. So much for beach time! :( Thankfully, the house was the perfect home base for us as we explored other parts of Hilton Head. It is an easy walk from the house to Coligny Plaza with plenty of food and other shops available. Also, the walk to the beach is less than 5 minutes, so we could easily take a couple quick trips to watch the activity there. Also, the house is in great shape, and has all the amenities needed for an extended stay. Would highly recommend.

AMAZING!!!!!!
5/5 stars
AMAZING!!!!!! is the best way to describe "The Cottage". Open the front door, and there the first indication of how beautiful and relaxing your stay is about to be. Every space fulfills your every need for comfort and practicality from the reading/bed nook in the foyer to the pool and patio area outside. The decor is unbelievable with each item placed for serenity and color-popping decor!! Three bedrooms, three bathrooms, full kitchen, TV's throughout, grill and lounge chairs- nothing missed. Make "The Cottage" your stay- you won't be disappointed, but will be recommending it to all your friends.
- Jane P.

Thank you and we too think it's very special! The perfect spot to enjoy a getaway on Hilton Head Island.
