Hiding from Milton

This was a last minute booking as a hideaway from our 2nd hurricane in two weeks. Booking was a breeze and checkin instructions/directions were great. Location was perfect, off on a quiet street yet walkable to restaurants and the beach and grocery. As we were fleeing the storm we didn't take advantage of everything available here, but it was exactly what we needed at the time.

Perfect beach cottage!

This home was the perfect little beach house for myself, husband, and small dog. It had everything we needed! We absolutely loved the outdoor shower and screened in porch. The bed was cozy, and the extra pillows and blankets were nice. It is very close to one of the best beach access in Isle of Palms. We would definitely stay here again!

SUPER

My wife and I loved staying here. We toured Charleston only 25 minutes away but really loved the house location. Quite neighbor streets that I ran and biked thru each day and soooo close to the ocean which I swam in every day. Restaurants and grocery store very close. And the price was super! Thanks for sharing your home. Mike

Cozy Beach Cottage

Lovely home in a great location. The house was perfect for my small family. We spent many nights on the screened in porch enjoying the evening. The outdoor shower was perfect for washing off sandy toes and the bedrooms were comfortable and cozy. This house was in a perfect location as it was near the shopping center and within walking distance to the beach. I would absolutely recommend this home to anyone with a smaller family looking for a beach getaway.

Great beach time!

Cute, clean, comfortable. Short walk to the beach...avoid all the parking hassle!! Provided beach equipment (umbrella, chairs) pretty worn out and unusable - small complaint. Overall carefree! Outdoor shower is fantastic!!

Great Brief Staycation

We live about 45 minutes away in Summerville and booked this grade little cottage for a staycation by the beach. Amazing location closer to the better beach and and shops then Wild Dunes, where we had family staying as well. If it wasn’t such a hot part of the year, I could imagine the amazing porch being a great place to sit and relax!

Spring break!

We loved this house and the location! Although we went the last week of March & the pollen was off the charts (we got the last box of Claritin at Harris Teeter, thank God) we loved every minute of the house and the island. It had everything we needed & the communication was great. Short walk to grocery, restaurants and more importantly the beach! You can hear it from the beautiful back porch! We made friends with neighbors too! We would definitely come back!

Anniversary Vaca

We fell in love with the cottage! Our favorite spot was the bench swing in the screened in porch. The main bed was very comfortable and we took every shower outside! Unfortunately, when we arrived the home was not clean. It was quickly rectified and we were actually refunded the cleaning fee, which was very generous of the host. We’re definitely booking this cottage again next year! Great location to the beach and restaurants.

Great location

We had a lovely stay in this cottage. The location was perfect and, although close to the grocery store etc… it was quiet. The rooms were generously sized and the kitchen was sufficient. The only area of improvement is some of the furnishings. The king sized bed was saggy on one side- my husband ended up sleeping in the other bedroom which he said was very comfortable. The couches were also sad (a bit saggy and old) and the pull out couch was broken- we ended up bringing the mattress in from the screened in porch into the living room for my daughter to sleep on. Otherwise we were happy with the accommodations and if those areas were improved would definitely give the cottage a full 5 stars!

Amazing beach getaway with kind owners

As most other reviews have already mentioned, the backporch and swing are amazing. The house is lovely too, with everything you could need. The grocery store, beach, wind jammer, and anything else you could need are within walking distance. The outdoor shower was such a nice touch. The owners of the home are incredibly kind people who answer any questions or concerns you may have. We will absolutely stay here again, and we would highly recommend it to anyone.

Review Submitted : 6/18/2022
'This house is so perfect. We live in Florida but rent houses frequently on the island throughout the year for work. We have rented some really large and fancy houses on the island but this house is my favorite. Its small but would be perfect for a couple or small family. Its location is perfect. Its close to the grocery store and many restaurants. It is within a short walk to the beach and has a little shower outside the side door to rinse off the sand. It has a nice fire pit out front and my wife and daughter loved the back porch, which is screened in and has a day bed and a swing. The house had plenty of towels and even beach chairs and toys. It was very cozy and clean. We will definitely stay here again and would give it more stars if we could.'
