Beach Nourishment Notice – Isle of Palms
Like all barrier islands, the Isle of Palms experiences natural cycles of sand accumulation and erosion. While most of our beach remains healthy, two specific areas in Wild Dunes are showing signs of significant erosion.
• North Hot Spot: In front of the Ocean Club and Seascape communities, located at the northern tip of the island.
• South Hot Spot: Along Dunecrest Lane, Beachwood East, and Seagrove Villa.
To address these concerns, the City of Isle of Palms will begin an emergency beach nourishment project on April 10. The project involves relocating sand from a sandbar located in front of the Property Owners Beach House to these erosion-prone areas.
Work can only be conducted during low tide, when the sandbar is accessible. Below is the tentative schedule:
• April 10–24: Nourishment of the South Hot Spot
• April 24–May 8: Nourishment of the North Hot Spot
• May 8–22: Return to the South Hot Spot for additional nourishment
We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to protect and preserve our beaches.

Lowcountry Properties

The room and location were very nice. That was one of the nicest places we have stayed. We were not huge fans of the city and surrounding areas. It was very crowded. There were not very many clothing/retail shops available. The parking was a problem and expensive to pay for.

May 2021

The property was very organized and well laid out. We particularly enjoyed the porch which has a comfortable couch that you could see the ocean from. It was well supplied with beach toys, chairs, as well as puzzles and games. Everything was labeled and there were plenty of instructions for all of the amenities/appliances. The property is located about a mile walk from the tennis courts and within a short walk to the beach. The beach area in front of Summerhouse was not particularly crowded and has a long stretch of sand.

This was our second year at Summerhouse but first at 403. The property was recently renovated and it showed. Condo was fully stocked, everything was labeled to make it easy for us to know where things went. The property was fantastic! We look forward to staying there again next year.

Gorgeous condo

This condo has it all and then some! Things worth mentioning: It comes with a ton of extras that aren't listed- like a beach wagon, beach chairs, boogie boards, beach towels and sand toys. All SO convenient to have! There aren't any pictures of the bathrooms but they are both plenty spacious, and the master has a huge shower and double vanity and a very large closet. The interior decorating is on point and added so much to the charm of the place. Our visit was cut extremely short due to Hurricane Florence :( We were evacuated after only 2 days and were so sad to leave. We're hoping to be back soon to enjoy a full week in this beautiful condo!

Meticulously maintained and gorgeous decor!

Wow. This beach condo was absolutely amazing. The pictures do not do this place justice. While the photos do look great, this place is meticulously well maintained. From the moment we walked through the front door we felt at home, not at a rental. The decor was done so tastefully and we noticed every little detail they put in to making this condo a place like home. The extras like laundry detergent, extra beach towels, foil and sandwich bags made us so appreciative of the little details. I didn’t have to worry about anything I forgot because it was there! The color scheme and decorations made it warm and inviting. The rooms were spacious. We had 3 boys ages 11,10,7 and they had plenty of room to spread out. The patio was the best we’ve ever seen. Perfect ocean views and a serene place to relax from morning to night. The pool was well maintained and exceeded our expectations as well. The entire vacation was smooth from renting to check out. We were so pleased.

Perfection!

This home was amazing! Everything was very spotless and clean, which is most important to me!! I normally do not sleep very well in another bed away from home and the mattress was very comfortable and I slept every night wonderfully! The kitchen had everything you could possibly need including snack baggies, ziplock bags, aluminum foil, trash bags, dish soap, etc.... We loved our stay in this condo and would consider renting it again as we normally stay at Summer House. My only suggestion would be a child lock on the main door. My 3 year old kept trying to go out the door to go the the beach because he was so excited! Thank you for sharing your home!!

Great beds- very well stocked and spotless

The Owners have stocked the condo very well-from trash bags and foil to games and outdoor play toys. It’s a bit of a hike Over the dunes to get to the beach so I definitely recommend you bring a beach wagon. We rented umbrellas and chair set ups so we didn’t have to drag all that down each morning. Pool is fine- nothing special but the granddaughter loved it. This condo is on the 4th floor so the fast elevator was a plus. The bedrooms are pretty big. Our king bed was amazingly comfortable. We would recommend this one for up to 5 people. Not too many more bc the living room is a bit small. We mainly spent time on the lanai porch. It was very nice with plenty of seats.
