The home was absolutely wonderful! Our family spent a week enjoying beautiful Edisto while experiencing the very best of beach front blessings. The home was inviting, comfortable and had everything we needed for our family vacation. The ocean front back porch was absolutely dreamy and perfect for melting stress gazing at the waves. Just steps away from the beach which we all loved. The hosts were so kind and provided thoughtful hospitality. We will definitely want to stay here again!

Truly enjoyed our time here. My elderly parents spent a lot of time on the screened in porch and were able to go to the beach because it was such a short walk. We brought our dogs and they loved the beach. Bring k cups for the coffee maker and dish soap. Linens and towels provided were good quality. Mattresses are probably due for replacement. Ice maker didn’t work, but there were ice trays to fill. Excellent outdoor shower (with hot and cold water) and hose pipe for cleaning up after the beach. We loved the house. It was very cozy. Bring a radio if you need one. Roku tvs we’re very nice, equipped with YoutubeTV so we could watch our gamecocks plays.

We enjoyed our stay here... The house is cute and although others labeled it "dated", I think of it as more "nostalgic"... It had everything we needed and sitting on the screened in porch looking at the ocean was my favorite part!

Great beach vacation!

We had a fantastic time, couldn’t have picked a better location on Edisto island. The cottage was clean, cozy and outfitted with linens. Edisto island is a simple beach town where you can bike to everything. It’s near perfection for a relaxed beach vacation. The owners were extremely responsive and easy to work with… we will definitely be back!

Great Getaway!

A true beach cottage! Wonderfully located in a quiet, family orientated little town. The cottage is clean, comfortable and provides everything one needs. We lived on the screen porch and on the beach which is only steps away! Great low- key, relaxing getaway. Grace is a gracious host who is available and attentive to the needs and feedback of her guests!

This bungalow was very well appointed with great furnishings. I spent many hours on the screened patio watching the ocean. It was very quiet location. The hosts were very good communicators and addressed concerns quickly. Would highly recommend

Wonderful place right on the beach

I came alone for some peace and quiet in the middle of December. This place is just perfect. They allowed me to bring my cats, which many places won’t do, and were always kind during communication. The ocean is so close I didn’t even need my beach chair, and the beach was very quiet this time of year. It was a great experience and I hope to do it again.

Perfection

I don't want to praise this place too much, because it's already so popular, but it was perfect, & exactly what we were looking for! That screened in porch with the rocking chairs was a wonderful place to hang out. A few steps & you are right on the beach. You could lay in bed & see the ocean & hear the waves! Everything was as described, & it was nice to meet the owners. I hope we get to go back someday.

Great trip and enjoyed being directly on the beach

We loved the screened in porch facing the ocean as well as the deck on the front on the house facing the street. The round table on the porch was used for dining outdoors. Lots of hooks on porch to hang wet beach towels and swimsuits. A plus was the outdoor shower by the back steps with hot and cold water. Kitchen had a good selection of pots and pans as well as baking dishes.

Idyllic Seaside Stay

Our stay at the Sanders’ cottage was probably the most enjoyable, peaceful two weeks we’ve ever had. The cottage was comfortable and clean, the location perfect (30 steps away from the ocean), and the pace slow. The people of Edisto are wonderful, including the hosts Steve and Betty Llew. If we didn’t already have plans for next winter to visit my elderly parents, we would come back next for much longer. But there’s always 2025! Thank you, Steve and Betty Llew. It was a pleasure getting to know you…

It’s like going back 50 years in time when you stay at Edisto Beach.

The person in charge was very helpful. An electrical issue (receptacle) related to the TV when we got there. I called for help and she responded immediately. Fortunately I was able to find the problem. As in many places the cleaning isn’t always what you think it should be but not bad.

We love Edisto and especially this perfect cottage right on the beach. Our most favorite part is the screened-in porch where we can hear the surf and watch those amazing sunrises. We have been coming here for years and will continue.

The only thing good about the home is the view!

My family and I just got back from staying at this property. To say the trip started off bad is an understatement. The entire island was without power for 10 hours our second afternoon and the entire night. Having a 9 month old this was really tough as you can imagine! The way I am I’m not going to complain and bother the owners about something out of their control. I will say something though about issues that are controllable..such as the house is super dated from all the appliances barely working to a fridge that’s in need of some maintenance and a deep clean. I could smell a nasty undertone all week from the fridge and everything we put in it smelled and tasted gross. The pre-cleaning was below sub par. The house felt dirty and the countertops had to be wiped down just to put our stuff on them initially walking in the home..same throughout the house in all the other rooms. The main bathroom has a big crack in the base the part you stand on..which actually gives when you take a shower so you feel like your going to fall through the home while trying to bathe..The owners tried to blame us for cracking the spigot where the water comes out and sending us a picture like we did it. The shower is a hot mess and was upon arrival! Upon leaving we stripped our beds and I removed the mattress pad on my bed to notice a big stain. I double checked the mattress cover just to make sure by chance nothing spilled by accident and the mattress pad was stain free. Apparently whoever cleans the home never washes the mattress pad bc we are being blamed for the “stain” as well. This home is just not worth the value it’s being rented for unless they are prepared to make some serious updates. The living room furniture is all outdoor furniture which was super uncomfortable. I was told there was 3 tvs bc I asked since I have kids. We ended up bringing one from our house as well to be on the safe side…well there was only 2 tvs (living room and one tiny/terrible one in a bedroom) thank goodness I brought a back up even though we accidentally left it there.. The day before our checkout I get a text from the owner telling me he was told we had more than six people and we had dogs. I was like are you serious with this!?! I had family and friends renting homes near us as well so we had people coming and going as most do on family vacations so this was a turn off and super invasive. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere!!

About the host

Hosted by Sandy Sanders

We have been coming to Edisto since we were young children. We would spend the summers here with our parents. Now our children and grandchildren love to visit. We feel very lucky that the island has not changed a lot over the years and is still a family beach. Our family has always loved Edisto and we are fortunate that our cottages have withstood many storms.

Why they chose this property

Our grandfather purchased this property in 1939. The first cottage was built in 1955 and his cottage in 1957. After his death in 1973, his cottage was remodeled, and we started renting it. By having our personal cottage next door, we can make sure everything is working and well maintained. We would love to share our cottage with you!

What makes this property unique

Cottage is right on the ocean - sunrises and sunsets are awesome from the screen porch! Screen porch is great for eating, reading, playing cards or games, or just watching the ocean. Keep a lookout for porpoises!
This is a small family beach with great seafood straight from the Atlantic. There are many wonderful seafood restaurants on Edisto if you decide to eat out.
Botany Bay is a treasure not to be missed (visit at low tide).
