We enjoyed a nice, long weekend here for Thanksgiving. The host was very kind and attentive. The place was clean and had everything we needed. The weather was cold but there were heaters to keep the place warm and cozy. We'll be back in the spring/summer to play in the river! Thanks for a great stay!

This a riverside cottage. It's a cottage. Expect a cottage. That being said, it was exactly what we needed. We'd like to return, but with more fishing gear in hand. It was a great time to spend with our grandsons.

We enjoyed our stay at the cottage even though it rained the entire time! We did worry about deadfall in the yard because of all that rain. The listing in vrbo is accurate. With all the rain, we would have liked to utilize the covered porch but there were only benches and metal chairs. All being said, it served our purpose and was comfortable and clean.

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.

Peaceful Stay on the Edisto River – Highly Recommend!We stayed at this river house on the Edisto River from July 31 to August 3, and it was a fun getaway for our family. The view of the river was beautiful, and having private boat access made it even more special—we spent hours on the water and soaking up the peaceful surroundings.The home felt private and relaxing, perfect for unwinding. Everything was clean and comfortable, and we really appreciated the quiet, natural setting.A special shout-out to the host, who was incredibly responsive and kind. After we checked out, we realized my son had left his necklace behind. She not only found it quickly but also made sure we were able to pick it up—such a thoughtful gesture that meant a lot to us.Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful river escape with family. We’d love to come back
