About Us » BeachBum Rental & Property Management

Jim Brown, Property Manager-in-Charge and his wife, Margot, began vacationing in Hilton Head Island in 1994. After purchasing a rental home in 1996 they found that management from the larger rental companies felt impersonal. After moving permanently to the island in 2004, they began a small short term rental business with a strong focus on customer service. They personally greet every renter and are on call 24 hours a day to meet the needs of every guest. Margot and Jim have been married for over 30 years and have three daughters.

Loved this place! All the comfort of home! Really enjoyed staying here. Waking up in a house without the condo noise and feel was great. There were ten egrets and a heron in the lagoon watching me and our pup have coffee on the deck in the morning. Sea Pines is out of the traffic of Hilton Head so walking all of the trails was a joy. Loved the house. It's right sized and comfy. Felt like I was at home. Clean and open. Lots of light when you want it and privacy when you don't. The blinds were great. The quick walk to the beach just topped off the week. Some days we walked the beach for miles and others just sat and did nothing. What a week. I'll be back and would love to stay here again. Thanks!!
