Highlight of our summer

We have stayed the Bruner’s house for several years now and it has become the highlight of our summer where our whole family takes a few days of vacation together. Everything is comfortable and easy - it’s like we are staying with family. Can’t say enough good things about the Bruners and their laidback beach house.

Great home in a nice area!!!

Beautiful home in a nice area near a marina and beach at Isle of Palms!! I didn’t realize you could stay somewhere with everything furnished that you could need for cooking, trips to the beach, etc. for less money than a resort. This home made us feel like residents instead of travelers and our whole family loved it. Would stay here again.

Wonderful property

Great location. Although the price was a fair amount more than we have paid in past years the customer service of the owners and the cleanliness of the home really made it worth the money. Very quick drive to the beach with the golf cart and a lot of great spaces and amenities. We would definitely stay here again!

Great location. Property owners were very easy to work with and very perceptive to messages and responded very quickly. The house is great. Very clean. Has everything you need for your vacation. It was so nice to not have to pack so many things since the house already had them. The golf cart was great for getting to the beach. Highly recommend.

Beautiful home and great visit to Charleston area.

Our family was thoroughly impressed with the house and the surrounding area. The Bruner's home is beautiful, well kept, and very comfortable. We appreciate the fact that basic items such as towels, bath soap, toilet paper and some kitchen supplies were available. We look forward to renting this house on a future visit and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a nice place on Isle of Palms.

Great place!

Such a great place to stay, especially with a family. Plenty of space for the kids (we have 3 under 6) and they even had toys and books for the kids! Everything was organized and easy to find. The owners were kind enough to have started paper products, seasonings, etc which was such a nice touch! Lots of beach gear and a golf cart which made trips to the beach and near by playground easy. Owners were easy to contact and very responsive. Highly recommend!

Tranquil place on Isle of Palms

We had a fantastic stay on Isle of Palms, largely due to this charming house. The decor makes you feel more like you are truly at home, it was exceptionally clean, and everyone commented on how comfortable the beds were. It had everything we needed or could have wanted to make our stay comfortable, and the location on a quiet street allowed us all to unwind with the grand kids after a busy day at the beach or sightseeing. Ceil was also extremely helpful in answering questions and very available to help in any way needed to ensure that we had a pleasant stay. Overall an excellent place to stay.

Great house and location!

The house was beautiful and roomy. The pictures don’t do it justice! We stayed with 5 adults, 3 teenagers and an 11 month old. The house was well-equipped and everyone was happy and comfortable. The baby was comfortable in the supplied crib and he enjoyed the available toys. The teenagers had fun playing ping pong and riding the bikes. The tent, chairs, wagon, and golf cart made it easy for everyone to make the short trek to the beach. The owner was helpful and communicative. Great value for money here. Would definitely book again!

Beautiful home, perfect for large families or multiple couples. If you have adult kids like I do-make sure they keep the volume down in the garage at night. Neighbors are sensitive to excess noise. Perfect spot for your time in Isle of Palms.

No need to eat out!

This home was super comfortable, clean, welcoming, well stocked, and super organized. We are a family of cooks. We were able to prepare all our meals with no trouble thanks to a great supply of utensils, pots, pans, casserole dishes, etc. Beds were comfortable, towels thick, and living space perfect. We had 5 adults spending the night and 2 more regular visitors for meals and beach trips. We hope to return next year!

Comfortable Vacation Home

The Bruner's are great folks and were extremely attentive to all our questions/requests. The house had all the small things that you want during a vacation, but don't expect the rental to deliver: Spices, Soaps, clean/orderly dishes. The house seems like it has been lived in by the hosts vs. just your typical rental. We will definitely look here first when we come back to Charleston!

A wonderful family retreat on Isle of Palms

This is a great 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom home near the beach with plenty of Wi-Fi, tv and streaming services to keep your entire stay fun filled. The house comes with a golf cart and bikes that makes it an easy trip to the beach. The house is close to the marina and some of the greatest crapping in the lowlands. Isle of Palms is close to Charleston and be sure to walk the 5 mile Arthur J Ravenel bridge! The owners are readily available to help you with any questions and it is the best stocked home I have ever stayed in on vacay!

About the host

Hosted by Ceil and Dave Bruner

Host profile image
We moved to the Charleston area in 1992, stationed here with the U.S. Navy. South Carolina is home to us and we were happy to move close to our family as we started our own family. We fell in love with the Island and bought our home here. We were looking for a quiet, family-friendly town in which to raise our two children, but close enough to the mainland and the city to enjoy the many benefits offered. We were transferred again after 3 wonderful years but kept our home until we returned here in 2002, after 20 years of Navy life. We've lived and traveled in various places all around the globe and it was during our international travel that we first became acquainted with VRBO as guests. During our second careers (Dave as a pastor of international outreach at a local church) we are also doing lots of international travel and have continued to use VRBO as guests. After becoming "empty-nesters" we've decided to become hosts ourselves and share our special Island home with others.

Why they chose this property

We love the island feel of our neighborhood - all the trees and foliage, the birds and even the sound of the ocean on special evenings. We also love the quiet family atmosphere where neighbors visit with one another and enjoy the outdoor activities. It's a slow-paced, small-town feeling here.

What makes this property unique

The Isle of Palms is unique in that it is primarily an owner-occupied town. Although there are many vacation homes here, most residents live here year-round. You get that feel of an island vacation spot, but also the quiet, family-friendly atmosphere. The Isle of Palms is also unique in that the city of Charleston is merely a 15 minute drive away - you are able to experience the best of both worlds!
