Brought back so many memories of my childhood vacations on Edisto. Rustic, simple and absolutely perfect. Highlight of the trip was the kids experiencing a hatching sea turtle nest right in front of the house. Kitchen gets a little warm if you are cooking but nothing a provided box fan canât solve. Perfect back porch complete with cozy swinging couch for a good read or afternoon nap. Comfortable beds and everything was very clean. Well stocked with all the necessities.
Built in 1934, this is the little cottage that could! Charming. Free spirited. Authentic. Not too big and not too small - perfect for a family of 5. Breathtaking ocean views. Steps to the ocean from a covered porch. Sofa swing that provided endless hours of peaceful reading with a guaranteed coastal breeze. A delightful little kitchen with all the amenities. Hostess with the mostess. And a shabby chic decorating style that would make Rachel Ashwell smile. Another guest simply left in his comments, âGuess the secret is out.â ShhhhâŠ..donât tell anyone!
I canât say enough about the location of this house. We were steps from the ocean with a nice Sandy area right at the bottom of the steps for the kids to play. It was so ideal. The house as described is old timey beach house but very charming. The furniture is worn, but very comfortable with lots of room in the living room for the kids and the adults. Roxanne was quick to respond to my questions extremely accommodating. We hope to come back next year for an enjoyable, relaxing,memory making stay at Edisto Beach.
Our family enjoyed our time in Edisto Island in this fun beach house. It is a fun preserved piece of history on the each. The porch swing was amazing for sunrise views and the beach has amazing shells providing hours of entertainment for the kids. Only downfall is sharing 1 shower but you can make it work. Would go back!
Loved this place, it is so simple and exactly what we needed. Stayed here for our anniversary getaway. The kitchen is well stocked and we appreciated the little touches like dishwashing soap and paper towels. The house is clean and beds were comfy. . Would definietly stay againdedefhavlitfirdaysdayshaeverything
The setting is glorious. I loved lying in bed and listening to the waves, and watching the sunrise out the window. The house is rustic, but well equipped. The state park pass is a plus the hikes there wonderful.
Enjoyed the rustic, but maintained cottage on the beach. The beds were comfortable and the cottage clean. The listing needs updating, there are no toiletries provided and we were unable to use the fireplace, disappointed.
I loved my stay. It is an older beach house just like from my childhood but with the modern convenience of dishwasher, laundry and a/c. Absolutely loved it. Sitting on the porch is the best. Youâre almost level with the beach. The owners had a beach toy box full of fun toys even adults can enjoy. We rented bikes , eas , they deliver to the house . So much fun.
Simple, classic beach cottage - our family had an absolute blast. Property manager went above & beyond for us, cannot say enough about how well we were treated. Plan to return to this property asap!
Loved that this original Edisto cottage has been maintained so well! Walking straight to the beach was amazing! Back porch time was wonderful for morning coffee and afternoon sunsets!
We totally enjoyed staying in this cute little bungalo and look forward to coming back next year. The house was so quaint and cozy and was just perfect for us
Great house, porch out of this world!!! Perfect beach
This is a well cared for older home that is a vital reminder of Edisto as it used to be. I hope this, and other homes like it will continue to be a part of the community for years and years to come. The house was clean and as pictured, the host was gracious and understanding of our needs. The only thing that was hard for me to do was to communicate back to the host during our stay to let her know for future guests small things that did not meet the description such as no blender or beach towels in the home and a need for more toiletries at the sinks and showers. Not a big deal as we brought everything we needed. I do not mention this as a complaint and not something I would put in a review for other guests. The beach chairs, the porch furniture, the outside shower and rinse off locations were wonderful, so many details that we enjoyed very much. Thank you to Roxanne (I think perhaps my inability to communicate adequately during the stay may have had something to do with my insufficient computer skills...) If you would like to edit this for a posted review for a wonderful house, please do!
My family and I had the most wonderful stay in this lovely little beach house. The location is amazing in relation to both the local shops/restaurants as well as the actual surf! As a mother of two little ones, I loved not having to worry about lugging beach gear up and down massive staircases just to go out on the beach. The house itself is an original Edisto beach house and the simplicity and casual charm was exactly what we were looking for. In fact, I now plan to rent this house every year for as long as itâs available. In addition, the owner, Roxanne, was the best hostess weâve ever had (and weâve had many). Communication and responsiveness was spot on and she certainly went out of her way to make sure we had the VERY best vacation experience - thank you Roxanne!!
The house is a well set up step back to an original style Edisto beach house with all the modern amenities. The owners are clearly restoring close to its original state. We loved it. The porch is on the beach fantastic location. Great communication with our host. Easy in and out!
The photos of the beach cottage donât come close to doing it justice! The inside of the cottage takes you back to a relaxing slower time. From the original wood beams and walls to the clawfoot bathtub. Each morning I looked forward to having coffee on the back porch while watching the sun rise and listening to the waves. I was able to relax immediately from work and normal life (which usually takes multiple days).
The cottage was the perfect backdrop for a wonderful micro beach wedding just off of the back porch. I would 100% stay here again when Iâm in the area. It was magical.
Back for a second time- love the little cabin on the beach-has everything you would need for a very laid back, easy, relaxing get a way. Not for those looking for fancy. Very charming and rustic. Love.
We loved the location being steps to the beach. As other reviews have stated, this is an original cottage but has been well maintained and is comfortable and well stocked. Great communication with the owner. We would definitely return!
