In Spite of Ourselves is a wonderful Edisto Island home with deep water access on Fishing Creek - a lovely spot for you and your family to enjoy. Updated in the winter of 2019, the home is beaming with joyful sunlight, reminding you that you're surrounded by beauty and peace that can only be found in the Lowcountry of South Carolina.

Whether you enjoy boating, birdwatching, crabbing, fishing, kayaking, or just a spectacular view of Edisto's beauty, the vantage points from the expansive, wrap-around, covered deck and covered pier head on the private dock are nothing short of awe-inspiring. If boating is on your vacation agenda, take advantage of the private boat landing just steps from the house. Bring your fishing poles and crab traps and cook your day’s catch on the ground-level patio while taking in scenes of the salt marsh that many species of birds and wildlife call home. This home is also perfectly situated just over a mile from the sandy beach for those who want to take in the glorious southern sun. Don’t forget your cameras and reignite your love of the outdoors - all you need is waiting for you.

Beautiful Home!

We loved our stay! The privacy, shade and view from the home is wonderful. The private dock and boat ramp was what peeked our interest and was so convenient for our guys that love to fish. The house was very clean and updated. The kitchen had lots of cookware and utensils. We did have to drive to the beach but it was not far and we didn’t find it to be inconvenient. The only reason I did not give this review 5 stars was because the upstairs room was quite warm. Even with a mini ac and fan it was particularly warm during the day. The ac air was not cold so the room stayed warm. Night time was tolerable. We liked that the upstairs had several beds. It was good for the teenagers. We look forward to our next visit!

Teaching the grands

Wonderful place to take the grands and educate them about marine life. However it needs a window air conditioning unit upstairs, entirely too hot.

Thanksgiving break

Just the way the pictures looked. Absolutely breathtaking! So peaceful and quiet. House was very comfortable but the property was perfect. Fished, crabbed, went on a boat ride and sat by the fire. Look forward to renting it again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Always a great location! Loved the new paint and other upgrades to the home. Very nice stay! Only complaint would be the water is quite salty out of the tap, maybe a filtration system is needed. The stove could use updating. Other than that, we always enjoy staying here.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love the location , and being able to step out the house and walk to get on your boat was great. This was one of the best trips we ever had.The only thing was the water in the house had that sulfur smell , but we brought water to brush your teeth and to make coffee with. Like I said we had a awesome time and will come back next year.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at In Spite of Ourselves for a long weekend this March and loved it! It's secluded on the edge of the marsh, nestled in the woods, yet located in an easy to access small development. Great house! And fabulous porch!

The only recommendation I can pass on is, the limbs on the back porch side facing that wonderful sunset need to be trimmed so you can have a CLEAR VIEW of the sunset! It is truly a small piece of Heaven on Edisto!

Beautiful view

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is great for my family and there have been upgrades (new flooring, the addition of some dishes) since last year. However the master bedroom could really use a new mattress and the living room furniture has seen better days. There was no DVD player this year. The cleaning was questionable this year. There was a dirty diaper left under a bed, trash left upstairs, a pair of dirty socks left by the bed. It was not typical of Atwood. We have stayed at this property for the last 6 years and love the beautiful views and the seclusion.

Lovely Location

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stay in this home every year because of the location. We love Edisto and being off the beaten track. It does need some tlc and does not offer all of the same amenities as it once did (outdoor shower, No electricity at dock) but the views are beautiful. The grass was not cut when we arrived and nor was it done the entire week that we were there. The kids were riding in knee high grass on their bikes. The house does need to be updated especially the furniture. Overall we are satisfied though. It is a great place for a quiet non commercialized vacation.
