About this property
Charming Waterfront Cottage only 2 miles from
Beautifully-restored 1920's cottage with heart-pine floors and tongue-and-grove wood walls and ceilings. This cottage is a must for a cozy and relaxing visit to Charleston, situated on a quiet country lane yet only two miles to Historic Downtown Charleston. Each of the three bedrooms have their own full bathrooms. The fully-equipped professional kitchen features all Viking appliances, gas cooking and two ovens. Enjoy the living area with wood-burning fireplace, high definition TV and plenty of seating for up to 6 persons. There is a gas grill on the back deck. It is natural gas hooked up directly to gas so no worries on refilling tanks. The cottage is situated on 1/2 acre with a country setting surrounded by beautiful live oaks and the ebbing tides of James Island Creek in the front yard and Guy Creek in the rear. There are many options for relaxing outdoors with plenty of seating whether on the front porch, back patio or rear edge of the property at the base of the massive oak with chairs surrounding a fire pit. Rental includes use of kayak and stand-up paddle board. Owner also has provided beach chairs, beach towels and a cooler for trips to the beach. You will not be disappointed with this special cottage. Inquire with owner for special discounts and availability.

This property fit our family perfectly! It was exactly what we had hoped it would be. Clean, updated, comfortable beds, shiplap and bead board everywhere, a beachy decor, fire pit (wood provided) kayak and paddle board...the list goes on and on. Even Ellis Creek Fish Camp was a pleasant surprise. Great food, drinks, friendly staff and just a short walk from the house. I was apprehensive about staying so close to a restaurant/bar, but surprisingly we never noticed it or the patrons, even on busy nights. It was still calm, quiet and we were able to relax and enjoy our stay. It actually added to the location, we didn’t have to drive anywhere to find good food or drinks! Kit was a great owner to deal with! She is a very busy lady, so if it takes a minute to get a response to a text or email no worries...she will get in touch with you and you will have a great stay!
