Excellent cabin by a peaceful winding river

Great little cabin by a river. Remote and peaceful. Occasional jet skis buzz by on the river. The vibe of the place is very chill. I will definitely stay here again.

Hidden Gem

We had my son‘s 18th birthday party here and we had a great time. The place had everything we needed. A small boat ramp that was perfect for my Jet Ski. We were able to swim and float down the river. It is a nice little getaway if you ever want something quiet and affordable with access to the water. The host Melinda checked on us and made sure we had everything we needed. I’m going back and would definitely recommend staying here. Great family getaway!!

Property was exactly as described. Melinda was a wonderful host. She was easy to communicate with, and seemed to genuinely care that we felt at home and enjoyed our stay. We had a quiet, relaxing time. We will definitely be back!

5 day stay over Christmas. The weather didnt cooperate to allow much river fun, but so many options if mother nature had been nicer. Nice stock of essentials and snacks.

Family get together for Navy Graduation

My son graduated from NAVY Nuclear Power School in Charleston and this was a great way to spend the weekend after graduation. Close to Charleston. Our family had an awesome time. Kayaking was great (didn't catch any fish but we tried) and the outside firepit and seating was great. The inside of the house and porch was awesome also. Would defintely recommend this location.

Adorable cottage on the Edisto

Melinda’s property is a perfect little getaway! Our kiddo and dog loved the fenced yard, where they could run all day and the lot is huge. The cottage is well appointed with all you could need, neighbors are friendly, and it’s so peaceful. While a bit far from groceries, there are a few store nearby with essentials - we loved Randall’s shop for the firewood! What a blissful family weekend - we can’t wait to come back!

Lazy River House

Needed some place to stay while floors were being refinished. Quaint, laid back and only about 50 feet from Edisto River. It was very hot and not much to do if you do not do things on the water. The TV worked via Air Play from iPad. Watched some Braves baseball that way and Madam Sec Series. Beds are up against the wall. This made it difficult to get out of bed during the night. Shower leaves a lot to be desired. Killed two Copper Head snakes in yard since this is so near the Edisto River. Fishing not good this time of year. Would rent again if we need to. Worked for us. Thanks M

This river house has a perfect view of the Edisto River.

Everything as expected. Host went out of her way to make sure we had what we needed. But we didn't need much as we just wanted to relax and enjoy the River. Porch and deck were great. Location was close enough for our day trip to Ediso Beach and a day trip to Donnelly Wildlife Management Area.

kayaking paradise

Very remote place: at the end of a dirt road in the middle of nowhere. Perfect for vacation! Fully fenced yard, private boat launch (we launched kayaks only). Magic beautiful cypress swamp is just across the river - like, paddle 30 yards and you are in! River current is swift (no tides), but you can paddle upstream for a few miles. Better arrange a shuttle (note: there are no taxi, Uber or Lyft!) to paddle downstream. There are options. Great fishing right from the property. I can imagine that Summer will bring mosquitoes and other bugs, but there were none during our stay (until April 2nd). Friendly neighbors. Very helpful host.
