We (7 people) stayed at Peppertree from 2/17/07 to 2/20/07as a long weekend get away. The resort was not crowded as it was the off season, and this was just what we were looking for a quiet and relaxing time.

When we checked-in our reservation was for a 3 bedroom condo. Due to construction they put us in the newest building #33 with a 2 bedroom and 1 bedroom condos with adjoining doors. So we had 2 living rooms and 2 full kitchens.

The indoor pool is heated and clean. Its better to go into the pool during the day as pool room air temperature is warm from the sun shining on the glass. The outdoor hot tub (spa) was great. It was the first time I have ever been in a hot tub when the air temperature was cold.

The resort is a 2 minute walk to the beach. The beach was pretty much deserted just a few people with their dogs and some people were driving their trucks on the beach. It was great to go for a walk on the beach but the wind was pretty strong so dress warm.

The island is not in full swing. So restaurants are tough to fine open. We ate at the Channel Marker 2 restaurant. They have great snow crab legs and ribeye steaks. The Food Loin supermarket is real close to the resort, so we bought breakfast food and ate at the condo. Wings and Pacific souvenir stores are open during the day if you are looking for that kind of stuff.

The resort is clean and the condo's are well stocked with supplies. We would all stay here again, and wonder what it would be like during the on season.

When we checked into Peppertree, we had to clean the unit before our son, daugher-in-law, and grandchildren arrived because it was so filthy. We have traded our timeshare in Hilton Head many times--this one was the worst--it was old and dated which I can handle but dirt is another thing. Our grandchildren were very young 22 months and 2 1/2 months--we would not let them on the floor. Even after we cleaned, the place was scarey. Too bad because the location is great. At one time it might have been a very nice resort but it surely isn't now.
(Our unit was not the only dirty one--the people next door also had to clean-- they also had a small grandchild with them.)

THis resort was beautiful. Again, we were on the 3rd floor, but they are renovating and putting elevators in. If you are a fisherman, this is the place for you to go with your family. There are two party boats (one within 1 mile and the other minutes away). If you got to Beaufort, you can take a water taxi to Shackelford Island (pack a lunch) and swim or look for the wild horses. The beach was beautiful. Really a nice place to stay.

My family and I just returned from Peppertree on June 23rd, and we loved it. Our room was very clean, and the staff was GREAT!!!. The beach was only a minute walk away, and when we weren't on the beach we were lounging by the beautiful pools. They were so clean and well kept. They also have a very nice little store on site for those times you just need something simple. Atlantic Beach was great! It is not over commercialized like other beaches such as Myrtle Beach, Virginia Beach, or Ocean City, this is a perfect place for a family to go on vacation. The only thing was we were on the 3rd floor and there was NO elevator, but they are in the process of building them for ALL the buildings. They have a very nice inside pool for those rainy days, and not to mention the very nice and clean SPA which was a delight. I recommend this place highly if you love the beach and want a nice place to stay, we were impressed. Thanks Peppertree and we will definitely be back. The resort is also centrally located, restaurants, grocery stores, shops ALL of it is just a minute drive away. LOVED IT!!!! What else is there to say!!!
