Beautiful home. Nice and quiet. Stayed with my sister and her kids and it was definitely what we needed for Mother’s Day weekend.

Great house and wonderful location!

This was a great house in a wonderful location. It feels very private while also being conveniently located. The house was a quick bike ride to the beach. The host is very communicative and sent us all the information we needed well ahead of our check-in.

peaceful and serene stay.

This place was absolutely amazing. Very spacious and well kept in a private neighborhood. We had no issues our entire stay as there is a small shopping center located on the resort to the addition of restaurants and leisure activities. Charleston is a quick 30 min drive to explore some of the area history and amazing beaches! Overall it was a very peaceful and serene stay.

Great location, easy to find.

What a beautiful island! The house is perfect for a family of 6- 8. Very clean and spacious. Location makes it easy to get to all the island has to offer like golf and quality dining. We are bike rider types but highly recommend taking the provided beach bikes to get to beach or many other naturally beautiful settings. Charlston is 20 minutes and has some of the best restaurants and historic sightseeing imaginable. Relax with the wife and kids in the pool and hot tub in the AM or PM!!!! We will be back.
