It is a very comfortable home with a well-equipped kitchen. There was plenty of room to have a dinner with extended family members staying nearby, and the beach was a short walk away. Rita was the best host we have ever had, she was prompt and gracious in responding to our questions.

Annual family vacation getaway

Our family has returned to the same house for a number of years now. We love the location. We have three grandchildren from the age of two years old to six years old. We feel like the home is safe and very clean. Its location is great a short walk for the girls. The host Rita is wonderful to work with. No surprises here we had a lovely time .

Nice home close to the beach

Very comfortable place to stay for a quick weekend get away. Kitchen is well appointed. House is close to beach (1-1/2 blocks) and on a quiet street. We brought our dog who had a fabulous time!!! Isle of Palms is a laid back kind of place. Beach is not too crowded at this time of year.

Great House, W/C Friendly, Perfect Vacation Spot

This was the perfect vacation spot for our family. This house accommodated the whole family including one in a wheelchair, my elderly mother, and the four legged. It had everything we could possibly need, and how nice not to have to pack linens, other than the beach towels! Located within walking distance to the beach and just a short ride in to Charleston, it is the perfect location. This year we will have the addition of our grandson and we are hoping to make a return visit to this wonderful house.

IOP trip #2

This was our second trip to Isle of Palms. This property was an excellent fit our purpose. It is 25 minutes (on average) from downtown Charleston. One item on the listing that may be confusing is the 4th bedroom is more of a second living room with a fold out couch. Overall an excellent stay!

Great Stay!

This was our second vacation at the house, and it was just as pleasurable as the first visit. The home is very clean and comfortable. The owners and manager are very kind and cooperative, just a breeze to work with. While not directly on the beach, it's just a short walk. We love that end of the Isle of Palms because the beach is less crowded and during low tide it's wonderful with l - o - n - g beaches and interesting tidal pools. We had peaceful, romantic strolls on the sand.

Perfect in Every Way

Our stay at this property was perfect for our girls trip. There was plenty of room and each of us had our own room. I am in a power wheelchair and it was perfect. I had no problems at all in getting around. The ocean was a very short walk away and the neighborhood was great to take a walk in. Terri, the property manager was great to work with. We definitely would stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Property Manager for Owners - Rita

Host profile image
We are a family of six siblings, two of us live in the Charleston area, two in Charlotte NC and two live in the Norfolk VA area. We have lots of cousins, uncles, aunts, and friends with whom we love to share this house.
Our parents originally bought the house in 1956 when our father was stationed at Charleston Air Force base, two sisters were born while we lived here. Over the years there have been many family gatherings at this house and that continues today. Our fondest childhood memories are in this house and at this beach. Our own children grew up visiting our parents and enjoying the beach. We hope you'll enjoy it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

This is a lovely, roomy ranch home located in an idyllic island community close to Charleston which is an historic and vibrant tourist area. The beach is in close walking distance to the house and the Isle of Palms is a very friendly beach even for pets in designated hours.

What makes this property unique

The house is located on the quiet part of the island with very little traffic and you can walk to the beach in less than 5 minutes, this part of the beach is not commercial and usually not at all crowded. The home itself is open and airy, suitable for family game time, partying with a crowd or conversely, napping. It has all the comforts and amenities of your own home. On the day you move in, you will be welcomed with a clean slate so all you have to do is head to the beach or tourist activities and every evening the house will be waiting to welcome your family home. When your week is over, you will have a full book of memories.
