About this house rental

Historic Charleston offers the best of All Worlds: incredible beaches, year-round festivals - Art & Music, historic sight-seeing, Foodie Heaven, nice Weather All year, & sooo much more ...

Lowcountry Living is Elegant, yet Comfortable. This spacious home, on beachfront with glorious views, is designed for a large gathering of family and/or friends. The main living area, warmed by heart-of-pine, has five sofas to accommodate hanging-out and visiting. Antique dining table seats 10-16 with four stools at the adjoining kitchen counter/bar. Both areas look out over the set-down screen porch with tables, chairs, hammock, and sundeck onto the beautiful white beach and ocean. You are just close enough to see dolphins frolic from inside the home, and we are center stage for sail surfers from Breech Inlet to pier. We are truly the closest to beach/ocean you can get. Why priced so well? We are the owners, grew up here, live close by, and have been doing this for 20+ years now, so we are competitive at pricing. Compare our photos to others.
!Please read Full description Before booking! and note: Our family built this home in 1993. We are Not Mid Century Modern/ Industrial/ stainless/ granite/Minimalist and 2025 renovated (though updates and replacements are consistent). We ARE 5 star Location, Casual Elegance, Cleanliness, and Comfort. Colors correlate to Whites of the Sand and Wave caps, Non-neutral Blues of the Ocean and Sky, and BRs as varied seashells. 130+ yr old heart pine floors, counters, and bead-board walls throughout the main floor set the tone for our Traditional Lowcountry Style, Family & Friends, beach house. Many Family, and Guest, Weddings, Anniversaries, Birthday's, Rehearsal Dinners, BBQ's, Oyster Roasts, and much more have brought Divine Blessings, Great Love, and Joyful Karma into the fiber of our home. (There are plenty of lovely large houses close by to pay more for stainless, granite, no personal items or photos, plasma TVs, etc; just Not our family's preference.)
PRIVACY! Designed for congregating, this home also offers individual privacy. All BRs have extra wall and floor insulation, four of these have ocean views and three have doors onto the upper level deck. The large kid's room has been painted to resemble an aquarium. It has two sets of bunks with trundles under each.

We keep 10-15 beach/sand chairs, a large cooler, and an awesome all-terrain Wonder Wheeler to tote your things across your private boardwalk and down the dune.
Our outdoor areas are Not vacuumed and dusted weekly. We have tried forever to get Charleston palmetto bugs, mosquitoes, ants, and no see 'ums to go away (pest control yearly contract always), or at least behave, to no avail. We have info for a service that will set you up with wood and canvas loungers and umbrellas each morn. Email to ask about our shared pool access. Washingtonian.com DC used our home as the photo for DC Beach Guide: 3 Tips on Renting a Beach House" - July 16, 2018 -OCEAN BOULEVARD'S OCEANFRONT HOMES ARE THE CLOSEST LEGALLY POSSIBLE TO OCEAN ON THE ISLAND. LOCATION... LOCATION... LOCATION! We choose this specific lot out of many (in 1987 when Ocean Blvd just opened to building) for the closest legal proximity to the beach (7 yds down our private boardwalk), safe swimming area, and non-crowded privacy from the commercial area, a 3/4 mile walk.

Again, We are set up to very comfortably accommodate 10 adults with 2-6 children, or 12 adults. Isle of Palms now strictly enforces their CODES which limit the number of guests in all rentals. We may only exceed 16 guests for children 2 years or younger. Guests risk a fine for violating Codes. We now have a golf cart available for use by licensed drivers only, with signed waver! We pay a Professional Cleaning Company MORE than what is charged here to do the most thorough job possible. Sometimes mistakes are made. Previous guests put poorly washed utensils, glasses, etc away in cabinets, spill makeup in a closed bedroom drawer, stain multiple things. Kids leave creative things in hidden spots,... M&M Cleaning does a great job, and will come back to correct reasonable complaints. (We've had 8 cleaning companies in our 22 years renting by owner. 3 closed. 4 were fired. Their business is tougher than ours.) The outdoor areas are cleaned regularly, but not in between every weekly Summer use and will likely have sand and dirt, etc, just like a yard or any outdoor area. Grill will have a gas tank, but it is possible you will need to get a refill and/or your own charcoal.
We Highly recommend Charleston Place, the Mills House, the Dewberry Charleston, Wentworth Mansion, (and more if you ask) for white glove, daily, full staff service. Bed linens and bath towels can be provided. Sheets and towels are certainly guaranteed clean, but not free from small product stains. You may rent linens from a service if preferred, or bring your own. (Please note: there is a separate main floor master Suite NOT available for rental that will be locked off and empty for your stay, and is Not part of the 6BR/ 4.75BA . and-We also have a small oceanfront condo that sleeps up to 5 - 3/4 of a mile up the beach for small groups or additional guests, listing here is 116783. Ask about great rates and availability.)
Private chef services are available. Ask for more info.Also note: We provide a limited amount of start-up paper goods, soaps, etc. Our cleaners provide quality basic linens. Some guests prefer to bring their own for maximum comfort. Extras are also available for rent from our cleaning service, or several independent ones in the area.The full deposit will be returned if a CANCELLATION is made 90 days prior to April - Labor Day reservations. 50% will be refunded for a cancellation 45-90 days prior. 100% minus $100 handling fee will be refunded in any case, if the spot can be filled after cancellation. Off season and last minute rentals are 60/30-60 and 100%-$100 If filled. A serious threat of hurricane (actual Hurricane Warnings for the Charleston area in the next 72 hours) would constitute a 100% refund. Guests, and guests of guests, are NOT allowed to have or bring Firearms in or on this property, excepting water-guns. It is standard practice to have guests empty trash upon leaving, as they may have stinky stuff (diapers, seafood, shells...) which permeates the place when not cleaned for hours, or occasionally the next day.

10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2025
There are certain requirements my family has for a beach week. Amazing ocean view. Elevator. Screened in porch with hammock. Handicapped access to bathroom, bedroom and the beach. Lots of places to lounge and read books. We celebrated my mom’s 90th birthday. She and my father both use walkers. We got 2 beach wheelchairs and took them two houses down to the wide wide flat beach access. The golf cart was a huge hit with the kids. We brought a pickleball set and the kids played in the driveway. This house, as in the description, is “well loved”. Everything functioned and when it didn’t the issue was solved promptly. We are low key and for similar prices will take a less fancy house that is oceanfront than a more updated house away from the ocean. We plan to come back next year we had so much fun. Ages: (90, 60s, 30s, 20s).

The home was 100% of the website description. Great location, very spacious, beautiful oceanfront views, with a convenient golf cart included. Our three-generation family had a wonderful time.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2025
Wonderful property- the view from the downstairs seating area is stunning. It’s just a short walk to a beautiful beach with gentle waves and warm water. A perfect spot for small children. The house has a vintage charm with adequate seating and a big enough dining room table to accommodate 12-14 people. The screened in back porch is a great place to hang out. The golf cart was fun if a bit rusted. It is just a mile walk to a downtown coffee shop.The upstairs bedrooms were a bit dated but comfortable. Our host was very responsive. I would stay here again.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Sep 2021
The house was big and accommodating but there were some issues with cleanliness. The rooms upstairs all had a mildew smell. Mold growing in in all bathrooms. You could not air it out because of the humidity. There were huge roaches all over the patio area. only one or two were killed indoors. The curb appeal of the house looked overgrown and did not conform to the other properties on the block. Lots of exterior mold. Overall experience was pleasant and our trip was a success. I would not rent THIS property again for this price. The owner was very pleasant and easy to work with. I would consider renting from Susan again.
