About this property

James Island Airstream- Between Downtown & Folly Beach. Creekside Glamping!

Our recently renovated vintage 1976 Airstream Land Yacht is a cozy Glamper that has everything you'd need for a comfortable stay. Nestled next to our creek, you'll see water fowl galore while sipping your morning coffee in our outdoor seating area. Just 15 minutes to Folly Beach & 6 minutes to Downtown Charleston, we are in an ideal location for a fun Charleston getaway.

This cozy airstream can sleep four, but really is best for just two adults and two children, or two adults.

The entire airstream is for your use, as well as the outside sitting area on the front deck. The rest of the backyard is shared with our other guests. Please enjoy the picnic table, hot tub, grill and fire pit!

The Airstream is equipped with an AC unit to keep you cool in the summer, and a heater to keep you warm in the winter.

We live locally if you need anything or have any questions.

The cleaning fee is based on a "courteous guest". Any excessive dirtiness or neglect will accrue an additional $95 fee

I had such a great stay in this charming Airstream on James Island! Sarah was a fantastic host—friendly, responsive, and clearly thoughtful about every detail of the experience.I was in the area visiting family, and this ended up being the perfect little retreat. It truly felt like a peaceful escape, not like you’re right in the middle of a busy Charleston area, thanks to the beautiful, natural surroundings.I especially loved the campfire and hot tub—both were such a relaxing bonus at the end of the day. The kayaks are an awesome touch as well, even though we didn’t get a chance to use them this time.One of my favorite parts was just sitting with my coffee in the morning, watching the geese glide by on the water. It was quiet, scenic, and exactly what I needed.Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for something unique, cozy, and just a little removed from the hustle while still being close to everything.

The hot tub was super gross and unable to be used. The actual Airstream was cute and really nicely appointed, but I feel like if you list something as an amenity on the property, it should be available for use.

Response from VrboOwner on 16 Feb, 2026
I'm so sorry the hot tub wasn't in working order. We strive to maintain it well, and I was unaware that it was not ok. I will get that corrected quickly, and I apologize for the inconvenience. If you are ever staying again, and have an issue, please notify me during your stay so I can correct it for you to enjoy! I would love the opportunity to do that as we strive to make all our guests' experiences excellent.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our weekend in the airstream. Every morning we’d wake to baby geese and their mother coming into the yard from the water and was so cool to see.Sarah is extremely attentive, we felt very taken care of, while being left to experience the airstream ourselves.We stayed for 3 nights, and had to empty the gray water tank at the end of day two. Sarah gave great instructions, and it was incredibly simple and kind of fun to have a true RV-lite weekend.Parking is very generous, the wifi is great, and the yard was full of enjoyable things to do while we weren’t around town. I wouldn’t enjoy it as much if the airstream had more than the two of us. It is a large airstream, but still pretty tight. It was all part of the experience for us. We ended up using some of the linens on the twin beds on the larger bed. Having another sheet would’ve been nice but we definitely made it work well for us.Thanks again, Pursells, for providing an amazing place to stay during our short trip to Charleston.

Girls Trip Annual Vacation

We had a fabulous time on our very first ‘glamping’ trip! The airstream was clean, and we enjoyed the candy treats, popcorn and fresh farm eggs left for us! It was the perfect location to enjoy downtown Charleston, as well as nearby islands and beach towns! The owners were great in their communication with us before, during and after our stay! Thank you for a memorable time!

Cozy Airstream

This Airstream was an adorable stay along the river and close to restaurants. The backyard was beautiful, and the hot tub was a great bonus. I had a lot of fun petting the cat and dogs, making it an overall wonderful experience.

Charleston Vacation

This was a great loccation to start our Charleston vacation. We needed to transition location after we arrived and before we met up with family for a large family beach vacation. The airstream fit the bill perfectly. It was everything we needed.

Perfect Spot

Cozy stay for our family. Our teen daughter enjoyed her own space at the back of airstream to read and see some creek views in the morning. My husband and I loved our coffee with some scenic views of wood ducks floating in back. This space was clean and had everything we needed to enjoy our quick trip. It is perfectly located to downtown and Folly. Would definitely recommend!

First stay in airstream

It was our first stay in an airstream. Property was clean and as-described. We enjoyed exploring Charleston and the surrounding area and property location was convenient to drive to various points of interest. We enjoyed the fresh eggs from the chickens on the property. Don't think we will stay in an airstream again, but that's just our personal preference.

Super fun basecamp

We loved staying in this Airstream! Keep in mind that this is a camper, so taller or larger people may not be as comfortable. The chickens in the yard were really great, they also have good eggs! The owners were also very friendly while also giving us privacy!

Amazing place to stay. Had a retro-nostalgia vibe from the airstream to the property being compared to a homestead, with chickens (no rooster) and big garden. The host even had fresh eggs in the fridge! Fire pit was lovely by the water at night. Other renters staying in the guest house and main house never made noises and you wouldn’t have even known there were other people. You could cook anything you wanted, the airstream has a very nice dual use toaster oven that can bake, toast, air fry, etc. We had a full breakfast every morning with bacon, eggs, and pancakes on the patio. We would stay here again, we enjoyed all of it.

About the host

Hosted by Sarah Pursell

Host profile image

My name is Sarah and I'm a local Realtor and investor in the Charleston area. I love hosting people and showing them our Southern Hospitality. Originally from CA, I've made Charleston my home for the last several years. I absolutely love the beauty, nature, history, and charm Charleston has to offer. I enjoy meeting my guests, as people come from all over the world, from every walk of life, to visit Charleston.

Why they chose this property

Being on the water, our place is home to waterfowl like Canadian Geese, Egrets, and Great Blue Herons. Our backyard is a serene place to enjoy the beauty of nature. We are right between downtown Charleston and Folly Beach, both great places to visit. Just a quick jaunt over the James Island connector bridge, and you are downtown Charleston (less than 10 minutes away). Go the other direction about 15 minutes, and you are on Folly Beach, one of the Southeast's most visited beaches. Our location is what helps us stand out from others....we are close to everything you'd want to do in Charleston.

What makes this property unique

This renovated 1976 Airstream is the perfect blend of comfort and nature. Enjoy creekside glamping in our serene backyard.
