About this apartment rental
We are just a 100 yard walk down a dead-end street that ends at the beach! This part of the beach is very uncrowded even during the summer. Upon entering, you will be greeted with tiled floors that are offset by the warmth of vintage California redwood paneling and exposed brick walls. This house is truly stuck in the 1970s and not decked out with all the latest gadgets or appliances. It is very simplistic, rustic, and well, kind of quirky. To offset what it is lacking, it has a prime island location!
It's suitable for 2 people, or 3 if the third person wants to sleep on a small couch, or you're welcome to bring a blow-up mattress – there is ample room for one.
Please note: guests will not have access to AC/Heat controls. This house is equipped with a finicky geo-thermal unit. If you desire a certain temp, please let us know and we will adjust the thermostat to your desire. However, being an older home located in a subtropical climate, it will never be 70 degrees inside during the summer months.
The property sits upon what once was a natural sand dune and is very shady with lots of oaks and palm trees. There is unkempt vegetation everywhere – there is no manicured lawn here. (This lot is reminiscent to what this end of island looked like before the resort area was developed). We have chosen to have a sustainable yard – no watering required – and provide an ecological oasis for native plants and animals. If you're lucky, you will see the small herd of white tail deer that call a corner of the yard their home. PLEASE NOTE: We are surrounded by lots of trees; therefore, there is not a lot of natural light inside, so it may be too dark for some people’s taste. We have ample lighting and lamps throughout to compensate for the lack of natural light coming through the windows and doors. However, this can be beneficial especially during the hot summer months after being out on the beach all day.
So, if what you’re looking for is a place with all the bells and whistles of a newly renovated home or an airy light-filled modern beach house with all the latest appliances and perks, please look elsewhere – you’re not going to be happy here. We strive to make our guests happy and comfortable during their stay and enjoy their time in our ocean playground.
**FYI: there is no dishwasher or washer/dryer. If you need to do laundry, there is an IOP Laundromat about 2.5 miles away in the Harris Teeter shopping center.
PETS: We do accept friendly, housebroken dogs only – Limit 2 Dogs – preferably smaller dogs, but will accept large dogs depending on breed. ALL DOGS MUST BE PRE-APPROVED PRIOR TO BOOKING. We charge a non refundable pet fee of $50. This fee is included in your quote when you select that you are bringing pets. Also, when outside, your dog will have to be on a leash and all pet waste will have to be picked up and disposed in the outside trash bin. We do not accept cats.
City of Isle of Palms Dog Rules: Dogs can run off-leash on the beach every day from 5a.m. to 9a.m., after that, they must be leashed at all times.
If you would like more info, please inquire via email and I’ll be happy to answer any of your questions before you book.

This is a very unique lodging. It did feel like a Hobbit house with the wood and brick interior. It is a little short on dishes and coffee cups but it did have a full size refrigerator and a descent assortment of pots and pans. It was a little cold during the day and we had to ask the last night for them to turn up the temp. which they did. The location was convenient to the beach and dining on the island. The owners were always responsive to our requests. The shower was great.

Great beach, great location, great weather & good price.Life is too short to be negative or judgmental so I won't. If you're going to rent here, I would read the rest of the reviews and decide for yourself. May God bless Gertrude and her grandson. My wife thought the architecture of our space was really cool. Lastly, if you need to wash your dog, the showerhead can be hand held for an easy wash with great water pressure.

This is vacation rental is listed as a vintage home. I would not consider this a vintage home. It is old that is for sure but it has not been kept up with. There is overgrown vegitation all over the property. Where you have to park there is tree with thorned vines all over it. Every time we got into our car mu daughter was pulling thornes out of her shoes. The property is littered with old items all over. Some old chairs, a trailer for maybe some kayaks.. old sandles clothes trash. Etc. Our first day arriving the house was very hot it was at 80 I notified the owner threw verbo and they responded that they would turn the air down so that it would cool off. A little before 10pm it was at 81 and we decided to gonand get some fans before all the stores closed. I spent 124 on fans and after arriving back a little after 10 a man pulled up. He lived upstairs and said he was not the owner but that the owner had contacted him about it. He asked if he could go in a trip the breaker.. he did so the tempature stayed at 80 most of the night by the time we got it it was 75 which was much better. The owner then responded after i told them that i had paid a food bit for fans and that the temperature was not acceptable. They responded by saying that they told the person living upstairs to put the air on 68 but did not realize that they were not home at the time. My elderly dog who has a heart condition was under a lot of stress panting excessively all night long. It was not a good start
