Best Beach Getaway

This was one of the best beach houses we have stayed in. The house had everything we needed and more. It was so clean and very comfortable. Even the front porch furniture was clean and relaxing. The walk to the beach was very easy and the location was close to everything. We would definitely stay here again.

I was extremely pleased with this property. It was clean and roomy and had all the amenities needed for our stay. We liked the close proximity to the beach and the public beach access was a short walk. Would stay in the beach house again if we are in the Charleston area.

We loved our stay at the property! The house is just as pictured. The backyard needs some work due to storm issues, but still has a table for dining on the patio. We liked th short walk to the beach and the house having the beach necessities was great! We would stay here again!
