Accommodations: House, 6 Bedrooms + No additional sleeping rooms avail, 4.5 Baths (Sleeps 16)
Keywords: Beach House, villa, cottage, beachfront, oceanfront
BEACHFRONT - OCEAN BOULEVARD'S OCEANFRONT HOMES ARE THE CLOSEST LEGALLY POSSIBLE ON THE ISLAND, (without any erosion problems that others may be facing). These photos are accurate.
ELEGANT, YET, COMFORTABLE
This spacious home on beachfront is designed for a large gathering of family and/or friends. The main living area, warmed by heart-of-pine bead-board and flooring, has four sofas to accommodate hanging-out and visiting. Antique dining table seats 10-16 with five stools at the adjoining kitchen counter/bar (plus a high chair for tots).
Both areas look out over the set-down screen porch with tables, chairs, rockers, hammock, and sundeck onto the beautiful white beach and ocean. You are close enough to watch older kids and/or friends swim or play horse shoes on the beach from inside the home.
PRIVACY!
Designed for congregating, this home also offers individual privacy. Each of the five adult bedrooms has its own TV with cable, 3 with DVDs; 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, and TV/DVD.
The underneath of this home is a grill-out, hang-out, play area, white washed and open-air, 14 ft ceiling. It has 2 gas grills, 1 charcoal, propane streampot cooker, a tiki bar area, cd/mp3 player, ping pong table, hammock chairs, and various outdoor/beach games, as well as outdoor table and chairs. We keep 4-6 beach chairs (along with the resin adirondacks that are great for beach), a large cooler, and an awesome all-terain Wonder Wheeler to tote your things across your private boardwalk and down the dune. I also have info for a service that will set you up with wood and canvas loungers and umbrellas each morn. Call or email to ask about our pool access.
Bedroom breakdown:
1 king master BR with ocean view on main floor (other 5 BRs are upstairs)
4 Queen BRs, 3 with oceanfront view (2 have loveseats which have been also used as toddler beds)
(1 without ocean view)
6 twin beds in kid's room (2 sets of bunks with trundles; plus a port-a-crib for tots).
Bed linens and bath towels are provided.
We are set up to very comfortably accommodate 10 adults with 4-6 children, or 12-14 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.
LOCATION... LOCATION... LOCATION!
We choose this specific spot to build for the closest legal proximity to the beach (20 yds down our private boardwalk), safe swimming areas, and non-crowded privacy from the commercial area, a 3/4 mile walk.
You are 3/4 mile walk or drive down the beachfront to the Banana Cabana, the One Eyed Parrot, Long Island Cafe, Coconut Joe's, and many great restaurants. 3/4 mile the other way to The Boathouse Restaurant on Breech Inlet. The world famous Windjammer beach bar offers up nightly entertainment, and Buddy Roe's Shrimp Shack 3 miles away in Mt. Pleasant has the best Lowcountry Shaggin outside of OD.
While enjoying the Island Life, you can go swimming, body surfing, play volleyball, dine at oceanfront restaurants, bike the beaches, jog, cruise the intercoastal waterway, sail, surf, windsurf, take in some live music, shop the boutiques. Check out the scuba diving or go deep sea fishing. Relax at a spa or try horseback riding. Kayak, parasail, water-ski, fish, go "Crabin or Shrimpin," walk the beach for shells, take a sunset cruise, charter a small boat, explore uninhabited islands, play some of the South’s finest golf courses.
You are only ten miles from the Historic District of Downtown Charleston. Take in the charm of this beautiful city and learn more about Charleston on a horse-drawn carriage ride, or tour Charleston Bay and Fort Sumter by boat. South Carolina Aquarium, world class restaurants, the Charleston City Open Market and shopping galore, live theater, live music, museums, and more.
You are just five minutes from Mount Pleasant Towne Centre: an upscale shopping experience in classic southern style. With over 65 national and local tenants, including: Banana Republic, Gap, Bath & Body Works, Caché, Men's Wearhouse and Old Navy, as well as the regions only J.Jill, Coldwater Creek and Francesca's. Sample exquisite home-made candy at Sweet Julep's Candy & Gifts, or dine in style at Guy Harvey, Longhorn Steakhouse, Chili's, TGI Friday's, Atlanta Bread Company, - there is sure to be a culinary diversion to suit your palette. After dinner, stroll the lush, tree-lined streets or relax at the luxurious Palmetto Grande 16-screen theatre. Ten minutes away you'll find famous Shem Creek shrimp boats and seafood restaurants. The Yorktown WWII destroyer and several historical plantations are all within easy driving distance as well.

Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 1993
Why the Owner Chose Isle of Palms
Our family built his house after many years of family trips renting homes up and down the Carolina Coast. We choose this spot on IOP for its exceptionally beautiful and safe beach, proximity to ocean, and as well to all that Charleston has to offer. We then endeavored to incorporate all of the do's and dont's we learned in the many beachfront homes we had visited.
The Unique Benefits of this House
As mentioned before, this home is designed for a large gathering of family and/or friends to enjoy each other, enjoy privacy when desired, enjoy amazing views from almost every room, enjoy the best beach, and enjoy Charleston when you can tear yourself away.

Very Comfortable Beach House! Would not change a thing!
Guest: Karen
(Columbia, SC)
Date of Stay: 10/13/10
Review Submitted: 10/19/10
A group of 11 stayed in this wonderful home. There was nothing that needed to be changed to make us all very comfortable and very happy we were there. The pictures on line are accurate but cannot do it justice. The elevator makes it bery convenient for 55+ (as we all were)! the kitchen is great for cooking and if you are going to go out instead there are many choices with excellent food very near by. The guide books left on the counter for guests were very helpful. The towels are plentiful and perfect, the beds are very comfortable. we will go back as often as we can!
Recommended for:Girls getaway, sightseeing, age 55+, tourists without a car.

The House was perfect for a large family or a group of friends. The views were spectacular. A great deal of attention was paid to ensuring beautiful views, a relaxing atmosphere and access to anything a person would need to feel at home.

Review Submitted: 06/25/10
The beach is amazing. Probably one of the best US beach expereience we have had. Quiet, clean, beautiful... And the home itself, although we had 14 people it allowed us to be together as well as in seperate sitting areas....outside deck, screened porch area and inside. There is a huge picture window looking out to the beach and sea which was amazing! Two fridges, seperate icemaker, two gas grills...it severed us well. We found Susan amazingly quick in responses through making the reservation and while we were there. Thanks Vicky!
Owner response:Thank you Vicky! Come back and see us again, Susan
