Fantastic Rental Highly Recommend

We loved our stay at the Rooney Bin. We had 3 generations staying there and there was more than enough space for everyone. It is a very short walk to the beach and the house is fully equipped with EVERYTHING you possibly need for a vacation and more. We were so comfortable and happy staying at the Rooney Bin and would definitely stay there again. Highly Recommend as a rental.

Relaxing Beach Getaway

My family and I had a wonderful time at the Rooney Bin! The definition of a quaint beach house, it was absolutely perfect for laughs, quality time, and a true reset. The house sits in a great location, allowing you to enjoy Edisto’s little social scene or spend any (or all) of your time sitting in the sand. The Rooney Bin is perfect for a family getaway - great layout, great location - nothing but a good time!

Best Edisto stay yet!!

Our first time at the Rooney Bin but definitely not our last. Just me and my 2 adult kids/SO so more than enough space. I loved the house - screen porch was my favorite spot! Very very clean and homey. The decor was perfect and I loved reading about the history of the house and family. Perfect location too! Patty is very responsive - can’t wait to book next year. Been coming to the island for 20+ years - best stay yet!!

This our 2nd year here and hope to continue the tradition. The house is perfect for us and steps away from the beach. When not on the sand - the screened porch is my happy place. The house has everything you need and always clean. Oh - and the outdoor shower is FABULOUS! Patty is super easy to work with and very quick to respond to questions.

Absolutely perfect beach house!! ♥️

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We had 6 adults and my 8 month old grandson who had the very best time! The house is wonderful and the hosts have supplied everything you could possibly need, including a baby gate and a high chair! Everyone enjoyed the screened porch, and the interior has such character - perfect beach house! There’s a lot of room under the house for parking and enjoying the swings! The location is great - not too far from the beach, but in a quiet location as well. The hosts are wonderful- very responsive and kind. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Edisto!! Highly recommend!

The beach is very close and an easy walk. Our favorite part of the house was the porch! So comfortable. I cannot leave out the area under the house. A perfect place to spend time.

Winter Break

We were very pleased with the property. It is well maintained and spotless. The personal touch with the house decorations is outstanding, making for a comfortable stay. If you are a cook, you will not be lacking for any utensil or lot or pan. The owner checked in with us during our stay to make sure everything was working properly. We had an issue with the TV reception with a "big game" coming up and she made sure it was solved promptly. We have fallen in love with the Rooney Bin.

Absolutely wonderful!

The Rooney Bin as perfect for our family & friends. The house is perfectly located within a short walk to the beach with a wonderful yard. The home is well furnished (the most comfortable bed I've ever had in a rental!) and the kitchen is equipped with anything you could possibly need. I can't say enough about the screened in porch and the area under the home. We had all of our meals out on the porch and spent "happy hour" on the swings and at the bar under the house. We have spent our summer vacation in Edisto for over 20 years and the Rooney Bin has been added to one of our favorites! Thank you for sharing your home, we had an absolutely wonderful time!

Perfect Get Away :)

The house was just as described. Worked perfectly for our family and grandparent get away. There is a queen bed room up stairs with a bathroom and a loft with two twin beds for children... with trundle beds big plus for the future! The grandparents were able to stay on the main floor in a queen bed/room and not climb as many steps in the day. The bed room down stairs with the double bed was the perfect bed room for my littles “babies bed room.” Open floor plan on the main floor was a plus with small children and the screened in porch was where we spent every night! A very short walk to the beach! Very open communication with the owner. Overall we were overly pleased!

Perfect for families, great location!

The Rooney Bin was the perfect beach house for our family vacation. Loved the openness of the living space as we had 3 one year olds and it was the perfect play area for them, with kitchen and dining right there as well. Kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. Beds were super comfortable. The house was only a short walk from the beach access, which was great. Also had grocery, shops, and restaurants nearby. Patty was very communicative and answered my questions promptly. Unfortunately we planned our trip the week hurricane Idalia came in, so we had to cut the trip a couple days short. Again, Patty stayed in touch with me regarding our safety and worked with us since we had to leave early. I highly recommend booking the Rooney Bin, you won’t be disappointed! We hope to come back again!

Disappointing Stay - Poor Cleanliness, Maintenance Issues, and Unprofessional Handling

Our stay at this property was unfortunately very disappointing. While the main floors looked clean at first glance, it became clear that deep cleaning was neglected - under the couches was dirty, and several pots and pans looked unwashed. One of the bedroom lights didn't work and there was still laundry in the dryer which made the stay feel unprepared and poorly managed.We also had to deal with the smoke alarm going off multiple times without reason, disrupting our stay.Worst of all, after we checked out, the owner accused us of stealing framed pictures from the home, a completely false and upsetting accusation. She later reached out and admitted she has found the pictures, but never apologized for wrongly accusing us. That kind of communication is not only unprofessional but incredibly disrespectful. Between the cleanliness issues, broken light, leftover laundry, disruptive alarms, and the owner's behavior, this was frustrating and disappointing experience. We would not recommend this property to others.

I don’t know what to say about this review. It just makes me sad to realize that there will be a clunker renter once in a while. Of the 300 renters we’ve gotten over the years on all the platforms we use, I’ve had all 5–star reviews with three 4-stars sprinkled in. That said, I won’t waste time defending these ridiculous comments, especially the one where the three pictures had been moved during their visit. Ridiculous. There were no “accusations,” just asking if they had been moved, but suffice it to say the pictures were discovered stashed between the wall and bathroom cabinet by the following renters. It makes me sick to my stomach to say: Be wary of this woman. She is not as she appears.

Why they chose this property

Our house at Edisto has become more than just a vacation home to us. It is filled with 40 years of memories, of countless friends and family sharing good food and laughs. Nights on the porch listening to stories and laughing, always laughing. And walking. And biking. And fishing. And enjoying all things Edisto. Mom and Dad are gone now, but they leave the legacy of a home in a place that we consider Paradise. Edisto Beach. Come share it with us!
