Lovely spot and great location on James Island. Perfect place to come back to after a day of beach and exploring Charleston. Super easy check in and check out process, and the hosts were proactively communicative and super friendly. Highly recommend!
We loved this stay! It was the perfect spot in between Folly and Charleston. Although we didn't hang around the property too much due to a wedding, it was comfortable enough for 5 people and would have been a cool place to hang and cook dinner. I would definitely stay here again.
The Island Hideout was perfect. It was very clean and comfortable with lots of room, comfy beds and convenient parking. The location was so convenient to everthing you come to Charleston for: the beach, great food, entertainment etc but still tucked into a quiet peaceful neighborhood. David was easy to communicate with and check in was a breeze. We will definitely stay here again and recommend The Hideout to others! Thanks for a great stay!
Fabulous stay! The yard was ideal for my 2 pups to run around and get exercise. Although there is another apartment and a cottage, I never saw anyone and the area was peaceful and quiet. I used the bed in the main area as it was a bit cooler in the hot summer. It was akin to living in a studio apartment. The other separate bedroom has a ceiling fan and is comfortable with a slider to the yard.
Easy access to downtown in 10 minutes yet away from the hustle and bustle. I would highly recommend and will stay again if opportunity arises.
My mom recently moved to Bishop Gadsden (a retirement home) and no longer has a guest bedroom to stay in, so my siblings and I looked into alternatives (hotel, stay with friends, etc…) Island Retreat is the PERFECT solution. It’s one of three properties on the “compound”. It’s clean, safe and so easy, which is just what I need. It’s also close to the Walmart if you need anything.
I will say the bathroom is teensy (no counter space at all and a tiny shower) so I think it wouldn’t be great for a group of friends - just something to keep in mind. Other than that it’s pretty much perfect.
It was a lovely stay. One of the best features was the outdoor shower for cleaning off after going to the beach! So convenient. The owners were very responsive and helpful. Appreciate an easy check in system and the security of the gate! Location was fantastic, central to folly, west Ashley, downtown, mount pleasant… all places we wanted to visit. I got to run away to Starbucks one morning for an hour to read and my husband and 7 year old were able to easily bike up to where I was to then hop in the car to go down to the beach so I loved how’s bike-able this location was. Inside, things were nicely labeled so you knew where EVERYTHING was. Fresh sheets and bedspreads, clean floors and bathroom. Air purifier in central location. Generously left snacks on counter. Enjoyed it :)
Like the island location. Easy to travel around the area as close to Charleston downtown, beaches and other islands. Hosts were very helpful and responded immediately when needed.
The cottage off the back of the main house was perfect for my daughter and I. Great host, thought of everything from beach gear to checking in with us throughout the stay to make sure we had everything we neeed!
Stayed here to visit my son who recently moved to Charleston. The space was perfect and within driving distance of many points of interest. It had everything you could ask for. The bed was so.....comfy and the shower was wonderful. The property was very clean. The beach chairs were a nice feature. We will be back .
We loved our stay at this property! The beds were comfortable, it was clean, private and well stocked! It is located right between Charleston and Folly Beach—just a few minutes from either. There is so much to do in this area, and we hope to stay again!
Great and convenient location if you want to split your time between the city and the beach. The host is incredibly attentive. Comfortable accommodations with all the amenities needed for a long stay.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The rental was cozy and comfortable. The kitchen was sufficiently equipped for simple meals, and the unit was clean. We would stay here again.
We had a wonderful stay & the accommodation was really nicer than we expected. It was also very convenient to the things we wanted to visit. Very nice!
