About this property

Sarah's Coastal Cottage - Shem Creek 🛶, Sullivan's Island 🏖, and Charleston ⛪️

Located in a true Southern neighborhood with palmetto trees and live oaks, this charming one-level brick home is perfect for a family getaway to the beach, exploring the amazing history of Charleston, or enjoying the charm of Mt. Pleasant. The waterfront, marshes, and beach are only a short bike ride away (bikes are available to use!). The home accommodates up to 6 adults and 2 children, with off-street parking for two vehicles.

This lovely 4 bedroom (3 + private FROG room upstairs) ranch-style brick home has been completely upgraded in the last few years, and the space is perfectly suited for 6 adults or a family (sleeps 8 total). Spend time in the morning with a fresh cup of coffee on the patio or stretched out with the paper on the over-sized sofa in the living room. Sullivan's Island, downtown Charleston, or Mt. Pleasant's Shem Creek area are all just minutes away!

Our home is a permitted short-term rental through the City of Mount Pleasant. Our permit number is ST240205 and our business license number is 20102776.

Better than even expected

We loved Sarah’s coastal cottage! It was so spacious and clean. When I had questions for Sarah she got back to me immediately. Cute neighborhood and can walk to some shops and coffee. Perfect place for us to stay for family wedding in surrounding area. Ubers were easy to access also. Thank you Sarah!

Fishing weekend

This property suited our needs well, for a family fishing weekend, with the boat. There was room in the driveway for vehicle and trailer, which was one of our main reasons for choosing it. The location was perfect for everything related to the stay, and to boat ramps, etc.

The property is in a nice, safe, and quiet neighborhood about 15-20 minutes from downtown Charleston. It is very well kept, clean and definitely has everything we need! I would definitely stay at this place if we were in town again.

About the host

Hosted by Sarah Fink

My husband and I live in Greenville, but we've been coming to Charleston for years: first when he was in the Air Force, and later when we fell in love with the city! We recently purchased this property so that we could spend more time in the city we love, and to share the city with new friends—that's you!

Why they chose this property

We love biking around Mount Pleasant with our kids, and we purchased this property from a friend who has run it as a short-term rental for the last several years. We hope you enjoy life in Mount Pleasant as much as we do! We love the proximity to Sullivan's Island (our favorite beach!), the Old Village, and kayaking on Shem Creek. Charleston is a quick drive across the bridge where you can take in a carriage ride, explore great art museums, and learn more about the history of our nation!

What makes this property unique

Housekeeping in the COVID-19 Era. Ever since the COVID-19 pandemic began this spring, guests have been asking about our cleaning protocols, and wondering if the house will be safe to stay in. The short answer is: we're doing everything in our power to ensure that our guests have a safe and germ-free stay! I employ a local cleaning company that has been awarded top honors in the region for home cleaning services, and one of the things that makes them unique is their commitment to using organic, non-toxic cleaning products whenever possible. However, in the current environment, they have implemented strict adherence to guidelines and recommendations from the CDC, which includes, but is not limited to: increasing the concentrate of disinfectant and upgrading to a hospital grade, EPA-approved product, wiping down all hard surfaces with an anti-bacterial solution, requiring all staff to wear gloves and booties while in the home, as well as disinfecting all equipment after every house cleaning. These precautions cost additional time and money, but we hope the extra investment will give you added peace of mind in knowing that you're stepping into a safe and spotless home.
