Crafting Weekend

We are a group of four couples who are long time friends. This house was perfect for us! 4 bedrooms that afforded each couple the opportunity for privacy, but a great open concept living/dining/kitchen area, that accommodated all without feeling crowded. The outdoor spaces were many and very comfortable and inviting. We would happily stay again!

Great Home Close to Everything

My friends and I did our annual girls' trip here and had a great time. The house was the perfect size for the four of us to stay. We loved the back screened in porch and were able to walk to the beach and up to a few shops and restaurants. We would definitely recommend!

Details Matter

The home was clean and well organized upon arrival. It was also a convenient walk to the beach and comfortably large for eight of us. The kitchen location is a good social area while cooking. However, there were minor issues that plagued our group from the start that made the rental not worth its cost. 1 - The shower heads in both rooms with bathrooms were damaged. One had no holder on the wall and just dangled in the shower. The other in the master bathroom was broken as well. Someone had taped it with paper medical tape, and it dissolved and fell off the mount during our stay. 2 - The washcloth holder in the master shower also fell out of the wall during a shower. The mount on the left side did not appear to be anchoring it in the wall. 3 - The spare and bunkbed bathroom tube did not drain well. 4 - The shower under the back porch downstairs had a broken latch. 5 - The latch on the downstairs screen porch front right door was broken. 6 - The TV in the non-master room with porch access was not operational. 7 - All dishes used were greasy. We had to wash everything we use. Some of the casserole dishes still had crusted food on them. 8 - The grill had not been cleaned before we arrived. 9 - owner didn’t keep their word on a small refund due to the condition of the home. This refund was not requested but offered, then the owner went silent.

Great family vacation house

This house turned out to be even better than expected - the layout was ideal for a mix of child-havers and non, with two bedrooms on one side that each had their own bathroom, and two on the other side (one with bunk beds) sharing a larger bathroom. The common areas were all super comfortable for socializing, with both indoor and outdoor tables big enough to eat at. We especially loved the big screened in porch with comfy couches and a big dining table. Hosts were friendly and quick to respond to questions. We would absolutely stay here again!

The youngest of us was78. We needed a slip mat in the tub and could have used some grab bars.

The master bedroom needed a chest of drawers. We could not unpack our suitcases. The house was very comfortable,. Edisto Island is beautiful.

Great Long Weekend in Edisto

The back balcony was amazing to sit and talk or play games. This house is perfect for a big group. This is my 3rd trip to Edisto, but this time we chose the location because my niece was coming from Tampa and we were all coming from Charlotte. The house was perfect. We put the kids to bed and were able to play cards and games without disturbing them. We visited Botany Bay and walked around the beach and island. On the way down we stopped in Charleston. Overall it was a great time with wonderful memories.

Great house in Edisto Beach

This was a great place to stay. We especially enjoyed the screened in porch in the back. Very private, altho within walking distance of good eating ( went to Sea Cow three times). “Steps from the beach” turned out to be two and a half blocks, not a problem for us, but not exactly what we expected. Overall great.

Epic Vacation with Family

The house enabled us to have one of the most wonderful beach trips we have had with my daughters and their families in years. The long screen porch was fantastic. The short walk to the beach or to the ice cream shop and restaurants was perfect. We rented bikes (also a close walk to), kids played on the beach, and I loved the view from the porch.

Fantastic house near the beach

The house and its bedrooms and open living area/kitchen were perfect for 6 adults and 3 children. The screened in back porch was wonderful. I loved that we could walk to the beach with a wagon with kids and chairs. I would definitely recommend this property.

Sorority's 30th Anniversary Weekend

Everything about the reservation was seamless and straightforward. The kitchen was well stocked and the was a basket of goodies on the counter. The house has many areas from the front porch to the back porch and spacious sitting area where we were able to spread out and have conversations in smaller groups. We were also able to converse as a group in the main sitting area and on the screened porch. There was enough space for 10 of us to sleep comfortably. Finally, the house was CLEAN, CLEAN CLEAN!!!
