About this property

Best Sunsets on Sullivans- Beachfront

Found at the western end of Sullivan’s Island, this condo is in a cottage built by the US government in approximately 1913. The cottage served as housing for enlisted female nurses that served at Camp Moultrie Hospital.
Our 2nd floor unit has the best views on Sullivans Island while optimizing privacy. Watch large vessels that enter and exit the harbor pass silently by the front yard. Dolphins can be seen swimming by most days. And look across the water to Fort Sumter- where the first shots of the Civil War were fired. The views are truly magical. The beach is lovely and generally only occupied by the small number of residents and visitors at the western end of the island. The cottage is situated right next door to historic Fort Moultrie which has many acres of lightly used grounds and paths that make for what seems like a private park. The beach going east is undeveloped for over a mile as the maritime forest and trails make for a mostly barren area. Walking west of the cottage you will see historic island homes, views of Ft. Sumter, downtown Charleston and the Ravenel Bridge. This quiet street and peaceful space is perfectly suited for young families and empty nesters. This is your opportunity to enjoy one of the few beachfront condo rentals on Sullivan's Island.

Restaurants and nightlife options are a short distance from the condo. Grocers and pharmacies can be found right over the bridge in Mount Pleasant.
If you love golf, tennis or pickle ball, there are courses and courts available.
Smart TV and wireless internet will keep you connected while away from home. You will also find books and games for your entertainment.
Enjoy the outdoor spaces as much as possible! There are front and back porches, a large, shared yard and plenty of seating at the edge of the dunes.

Beautiful Ocean View

The porch view of the beach and ocean was breathtaking! Having coffee breakfast, and reading on the pitch were the highlights of our trip. Pros: Comfortable beds and furniture.Beautful relaxing view from front porchResponsive hostYou can take your dog on the beach with a permit. Cons,;There was a very strong smell of some type of deodorizer that was overbearing. It aggravated my allergies. The host thought it was scented trash bags. That wasn't it and my clothes came home smelling like it, as well my dog"s fur.Next to public access to the beach, so could be noisy at times. Outlet in the kitchen didn't work for microwave.Large rugs were not clean. My small dog was aggressively approached by large dogs twice on the beach because people didn't follow the leash rules. She was almost burn and one dog jumped on me multiple times trying to get to her after I picked her up. That is not the host"s fault. Just be cautious if you take a small dog on the beach. It almost ruined my stay.

Shabby and run down

Shocked to see condition of unit - was told it was quaint but it was SHABBY. Bathroom very old and small. Shower was too high so it wet my hair as I couldn’t get away from the water. Very slippery shower and floor got wet every time shower was on. However, beds were comfortable. TVwas hard to operate too. I won’t be returning to this rental

Sunsets, great views, quiet beach, dolphins!

Location can’t be beat. Perfect stay in a historic building right by Fort Moultrie, right on the beach. Two huge porches provide extra living and dining spaces. Beach on this end of the island is quiet and still retains its rugged natural beauty. Tons of birds and dolphins to watch while you enjoy your morning coffee. We felt this was the best unit in the building. Wishing this trip could never end!

Disappointing upkeep

We stayed in this attractive apartment several times pre-pandemic, only to find it superficially maintained on our return: windows were dirty; sills either painted shut or filled with bugs; no bedroom fan remote to be found; back porch couch broken; fridge door shelves removed; front porch pillows dirty; shower curtain leaked; no soap in bath or kitchen; worn pots and pans; no bar in shower; chipped china; toilet seat unsecured; ice maker broken; outside stairs rickety — should have two rails; gate stuck; kitchen floor tiles missing, broken; exterior and interior paint flaking. With more attentive maintenance, Unit 4 could be restored to its original charming condition. Sadly, we won’t be back. showercushions dirty

Cozy older unit in great location

We visited during a rather cold week, but were pleased to find that the unit had comfortable beds, great heating, and plenty of hot water. The unit is small but well- equipped, and in warmer weather the front and back porches would provide additional living space. Katherine was responsive to our questions in a timely manner, and made us feel welcome. Nearly ten blocks from shops and restaurants but could be walkable in warmer weather. We would definitely consider returning.

Great location with beach charm

Kathleen is a very helpful and communicative host. The location is wonderful, right on the beach. It could get loud at times both night and day due to it being right next to beach parking. Porch is great for watching boats and dolphins go by! The place has a lot of beach charm and housekeeping does a great job. As the host informed us, it is old and does need updates. Floors need to be replaced and are a little uneven in places. Walls could use some fresh paint too. Some furniture could be replaced. We had lots of bath towels. Could have used a few more kitchen towels and wash cloths. Wifi and tv are great. Kitchen is good. Had most of what we needed. Really nice to have a full kitchen with our one year old, and we managed not to go out to eat once! All that being said, at the price point, the location is great but the amenities need updating. Overall, we had a nice stay!

A Wonderful Week

The unit is very quaint, the living room a bit dark. HOWEVER, the front porch was so wonderful, we did not even need a living room. The location is wonderful and the sunsets, exquisite. We had a very relaxing week.

Beach Getaway

Our family had a wonderful time at the beach cabin on Sullivan’s! The proximity to the water was amazing with 2 small children. We would pop out for beach adventures but enjoy snacks and meals on the lovely front porch overlooking the ocean. We watched dolphins every morning with our coffee and walked the beach each night for incredible sunsets. The space was the perfect size for our family of 4. There were no beach towels proximity, but there were beach chairs below the stairs that were helpful. We also left some kid sand toys down there for the next family to enjoy. The location and views of the property are wonderful and I would definitely book again! Thanks for sharing your space with us!!

Perfect for our stay

The property is adorable and exactly as advertised. Lovely location with great beachfront and Fort Moultrie views. Knowledgeable host noted we would need a permit for our dog and we were able to get one right away to take advantage of pet beach hours. . It is well appointed for its size and we used the kitchen for some meals. Beach access parking a plus. It is quaint so expect some wind noise when those storms blow through! Lovely sunsets and use of chairs on the bluff for viewing.

Great place to stay

This place was clean and comfy and cozy. We had fantastic views of the beach and spent the days watching the dolphins, birds and ships as they went by. The condo had all your conveniences and was close to things to do..like visit Ft Moultrie, the beach, Sullivan's Island resturants, etc and was an easy drive over to Mt Pleasant if you wanted to. We chose to stay on the porch or the beach and soak up the beautiful views. Our host was easy to get in touch with and communication was good.

Gorgeous view and great location!

This was our first visit to Sullivans Island and this house was in the perfect location. We enjoyed being next to Ft Moultrie and learning the history of Sullivans Island. We loved stepping right out onto the beach to walk toward the sunrise or just sit right out front for the sunset. The decor is as others described but the quaint kitchen and awesome front porch looking onto the beach and Charleston were perfect for us to enjoy breakfast and lunch, and getting down to the restaurants were an enjoyable walk or bike ride - via beach or Main Street. We rented bikes from the shop in town and were able to ride over the bridge to Mt Pleasant and to Isle of Palms. It’s nice that a parking spot comes with the unit also as you appreciate always having an easy place to park. Recommend and hope to stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Katherine Falls

Host profile image
Hosting friends new and old has always been a wonderful way to stay engaged with all there is to do and see on the island and in Charleston.

Why they chose this property

The western end of the island is the most peaceful! Being next door to Fort Moultrie while looking across the water to Fort Sumter and the lighthouse at Folly’s Beach is amazing. There is great fishing to the left of the property and great swimming to the right of the property.

What makes this property unique

This oceanfront condo has a very large front yard, ample parking and there is always sand for walking and tidal pools to explore.
