Cottage by the sea

The cottage is in need of someTLC.The windows need replaced and the back door is in need of paint or replacing.I feel bad that whoever built and painted the back deck also got overspray on the house .This is so sad for a cute little cottage.The kitchen just needs pots that the teflon is not pealing and some glass wine glasses not plastic.

Weekend trip

The location is wonderful. The house is perfect for two couples or a family of four. The house is close to all Isle of Palms activities but an easy trip back to Charleston.

Adorable Little Get Away

Location and Ease! This stay was remarkably easy and comfortable. A throwback to an old beach house, this stay was big enough for my family. We were able to walk to the beach every morning and let our kids and dogs run on the beach. The details that the hostess put in were so thoughtful. We had a Christmas stay, and we were delighted to see a tree and a scavenger hunt for the kids. It was accommodating, and the hostess was very responsive to any of our needs (which were few!) We can't wait to book again!

Mini vacay

This little cottage was a throw back to simpler times at IOP. We are Charleston area natives, born and raised, who live elsewhere now. The "cottage by the sea" gave us that unpretentious beach feel we miss! The natural backyard view from the deck was so relaxing, and it was just a short walk down to the beach. Thank you Liz!

About the host

Hosted by Liz Hambright

Hey Y'all! My name is Liz. I moved to Charleston about 3 years ago (Boston native!) with my husband. We have 3 amazing children who absolutely love the beach! We live locally (about 10min away) and really enjoy coming to this great little cottage just steps away from the beach. We just purchased this property recently (June 2020) and have been making great upgrades. It really is the perfect getaway!

Why they chose this property

This is the perfect little beach house that's just 2 blocks (6min walk) from the beach and 1 block from a great shopping center (2 restaurants, GREAT coffee shop, and grocery store). The 1/2 acre lot provides a spacious back yard that is fenced in, making it great for pets to run around without worry. Enjoy the peaceful atmosphere on the back deck listening to the sound of circades with your family and friends. Also a quick drive to downtown Charleston if you want to get off the island. Come check out the #1 travel destination city in the U.S.!
