About this property

ONE block away from beach! Bright, updated. Pet-friendly. Wheelchair accessible.

Family Beach House a short walk to the beach - one block!! This home was renovated with hardwood floors, open kitchen, dining and living area and expanded master bedroom with accessible bath. A large sun room was recently added.

Lovely ranch home owned by the same family for over 60 years that holds the happy memories of all who have stayed over the years. They hope new guests will create their own memories. The home is situated in a quiet section of the Isle of Palms. The beach is secluded from the commercial district and enjoys far fewer crowds.

Enter the house into the spacious living area with loads of natural lighting. The combined living/dining/kitchen area includes a 50” flat-screen, HD television with a Comcast cable premium channel package. The kitchen is fully equipped. The home has wireless internet throughout.

The large master bedroom has two queen beds, and a Bahama bed for an extra guest. The room has a walk in closet, dresser and chest of drawers with plenty of storage and a desk. There is a flat screen TV with cable in the room. The master bedroom and bath are handicap accessible with a roll-in shower and grab rails.

The second bedroom has a queen bed, a flat screen TV with cable, a large dresser and closet. The third bedroom has a queen bed with a large dresser and closet. All rooms have a ceiling fan. There are two additional full bathrooms. Towels and linens are provided, however, guests should bring their own beach towels.

The home is pet-friendly with an enclosed back yard. There are some restrictions on size and number of pets. Please contact the owner/manager for details.

The home is 20 minutes from downtown Charleston which is a nationally recognized "foodie heaven" with renowned chefs serving wonderful, locally-sourced cuisine. Charleston is an historic port city with cobblestone streets, horse-drawn carriages, antebellum homes and is rich in historical sights. Downtown also has many shopping opportunities with top brands and one-of-a kind boutiques. The surrounding area has several plantation homes and gardens.

The home is also 5 minutes from bustling Mt. Pleasant if you want to shop and dine just off the island.

Come visit and explore all the delights of small-island living, bring your bikes/golf carts or rent them here.

Beyond Expectations

From the listing, this place was undersold. This place was fantastic. The kitchen was stocked beyond my expectations. The oven heated up quickly, the stove top worked great, and the refrigerator was a full size. There are three bathrooms, and all worked well and convenient for our group of 7. The laundry was easily usable and a huge perk. One bedroom has a double bed, walk-in closet, dresser, and TV. The other bedroom has double bed and dresser. The large bedroom has two double beds, small daybed, two huge dressers, large walkin closet, tv, and a desk. This room had one of the three bathrooms, attached. The deck off the back has the grill, which was easy to use, and a nice place to gather later in the evening. The sunroom off the kitchen is a wonderful place to sit and relax. There are multiple tvs, but we did not use them as we were too busy enjoying the area. It is an easy walk to the beach, which is clean and mellow. The pier and main isle area are a quick and easy drive away. As well as Sullivan Island to the south. We would highly recommend this place.

Great Location!

This is our second time staying at this property as it’s only one street from the beach and has easy beach entry access. The house fit 6 people comfortably and had all the amenities we needed. It’s also only a 20 minute drive to downtown Charleston! Would stay here again!

Great vacation experience!

The property was very clean! The location is perfect, my family has three grandchildren a one year old, a three year old and a five year old. The walk is a block away and we didn’t have to carry anyone except the one year old. We had everything we needed in the kitchen. The beds are comfortable. The owner Rita is amazing.

Great location, accessible house

This house was perfect for our week at isle of palms. My son is a full time wheelchair user and was able to navigate the entire house with no problem - they even had a ramp for him to get into the house. The accessible bathroom was SO nice for him (and our backs!) as well. The house was clean and well taken care of and a short walk to the beach. Only suggestion would be to have some type of carport/cover to house beach wagons/chairs, etc so that they don’t get rained on or covered with tree debris. Overall, highly recommend!

Lovely house in a great location!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful house! Our group was 7 adult family members, and we had plenty of room. The house is very clean and pretty, the beds are super comfortable, and the location is close to the beach and just a short drive to the grocery store, seafood market, and great restaurants. The neighborhood was quiet and friendly. We really appreciated being able to have my niece's dog with us, and the yard was spacious and safe. Rita was fantastic to work with...great communication and very responsive. It was a great week for our whole family!

It would have been helpful if we knew we had to supply garbage bags, toilet paper, dishwasher soap, and washing machine soap. We could have brought extras with us instead of having to go out n buy some.

First visit to Isle of Palms for a family reunion.

The front view of the house does not do justice to the space inside. It comfortably fit our family of two not-quite-senior couples with two of our young adult children. We liked the layout and especially the quiet back room separated nicely by the kitchen from the busier area of the home. The beds were comfortable, the master bedroom very spacious with a desk that served well to connect with work (the office) as needed (ugh), and the kitchen well stocked with bowls, silverware, cooking utensils, pots. Very much appreciated since we did a lot of cooking. Overall, the house is very well maintained and comfortably furnished. It felt like home for a week. Rita was efficient and friendly with the booking process and we really enjoyed our first visit to the beautiful Isle of Palms and Charleston area.

IOP trip #2

This was our second trip to Isle of Palms. This property was an excellent fit our purpose. It is 25 minutes (on average) from downtown Charleston. One item on the listing that may be confusing is the 4th bedroom is more of a second living room with a fold out couch. Overall an excellent stay!

Family vacation

Warm and welcoming home in a great location. My family of six enjoyed our stay in this home. The sunroom is wonderful to relax and spend time together but also great for early risers to go into and not disturb the late sleepers. Kitchen was well stocked, making meal preparation easy. Thoughtful hosts have provided many items not normally found in rentals. Easy access to beach, grocery stores and restaurants. We would definitely stay again when returning to Isle of Palms

Host profile image
We are a family of six siblings, two of us live in the Charleston area, two in Charlotte NC and two live in the Norfolk VA area. We have lots of cousins, uncles, aunts, and friends with whom we love to share this house.
Our parents originally bought the house in 1956 when our father was stationed at Charleston Air Force base, two sisters were born while we lived here. Over the years there have been many family gatherings at this house and that continues today. Our fondest childhood memories are in this house and at this beach. Our own children grew up visiting our parents and enjoying the beach. We hope you'll enjoy it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

This is a lovely, roomy ranch home located in an idyllic island community close to Charleston which is an historic and vibrant tourist area. The beach is in close walking distance to the house and the Isle of Palms is a very friendly beach even for pets in designated hours.

What makes this property unique

The house is located on the quiet part of the island with very little traffic and you can walk to the beach in less than 5 minutes, this part of the beach is not commercial and usually not at all crowded. The home itself is open and airy, suitable for family game time, partying with a crowd or conversely, napping. It has all the comforts and amenities of your own home. On the day you move in, you will be welcomed with a clean slate so all you have to do is head to the beach or tourist activities and every evening the house will be waiting to welcome your family home. When your week is over, you will have a full book of memories.
