About this property

Marsh--Mellow in Wild Dunes Resort, 20 mins from historic Charleston!

31 Marsh Island Lane is located on an island surrounded by marsh land and wild life. The view is 180 degrees of marsh land including the Atlantic Inland Waterway. Marsh Island is in the gated resort community of Wild Dunes which is located on Isle of Palms, 20 minutes from Historic Charleston, SC, voted as a top US City for numerous years. 31 Marsh Island was completely remodeled in 2014 with a Chef’s Kitchen including a five burner Viking stove and other Viking appliances, hardwood floors throughout, three spacious bedrooms and three updated bathrooms, “heavenly bed” mattresses, new deck railing to enhance views, a dual HVAC system, sauna, wood burning fireplace and custom décor, including custom Daisy Berry Linens. There’s also a sunroom with panoramic views and a hammock within a screened porch, plus a sauna! This home is ideal for those wanting to relax and reinvigorate! Ask about our return renter discount!!!

***As of 2022, Wild Dunes has decided not to allow guests of non-Wild Dunes Rental Company to use the community pools and fitness center that the owners would purchase access for through the sports card. Our guests will still be able to access the tennis courts, pickle ball courts and book tee times at either of the golf courses. We choose to privately manage our home due to the personal attention we can give our renters as well as to the personal amenities we have included in the home. Thank you and our sincere apologies for any inconvenience this Wild Dunes Association change has caused you!***

The view was nice, but the chairs on the porch were not comfortable. You wouldn’t want to sit and enjoy the view for long. The house is spacious, but the furniture placement is odd. There is one tv in the home, but there is no sofa or chairs in the room where the tv is. The house did have two dead roaches and a dead bird on the upper deck, maybe the home was sitting empty for a while. Personally I would NOT stay here again. I go to wild dunes 2-4 times each yr and there are many other nicer places at half the cost. I was disappointed.

Sept weekend getaway

This home is located on a quiet cul-de-sac and the marsh. The marsh views are beautiful, especially from the 2nd floor porch. The home is beautiful and stocked nicely, you don't need to bring anything except your clothes. We had a wonderful weekend and hope to stay in this home again!

Another AWESOME stay in Marsh-Mellow

This was our 3rd stay at this property and it was awesome! The house is set back on a quiet street and it's so peaceful to sit outside and take in all the beauty. They thought of everything...the kitchen is well-stocked, they have beach towels (so you don't have to lug your own), extra linens, fans, 2 ice makers!!, bikes, golf cart to get you around the island. It's just a pleasure staying there. The owner is super responsive with questions and concerns which gave me peace of mind. We will be back!! :)

Top Notch!

This is the 4th time we've stayed at this property and we keep returning because we know our accommodations will be exceptional. Not to mention, the view and peace and quiet on the back of this little lane is amazing. You're close enough to everything but far enough away to enjoy the quiet and the stunning views from the back porches.This property manager is AMAZING to deal with; efficient and professional but also kind and thoughtful of the details. They truly want their renters to have a great experience and enjoy their stay.The bedrooms are comfortable, kitchen is well-stocked, lots of spaces to enjoy being together with your people. We plan to return to this property again. Highly recommend!!

Beautifully appointed home with marsh views

Our friends and we (3 couples) have stayed in this home for several years when we attend the women's pro tennis tournament on Daniel Island. We come back every year because we love the decorating, the well equipped kitchen and the gorgeous views! Always such a wonderful experience. The property owner and manager are always responsive and a pleasure to work with. We'll be back!

Comfortable, well-equipped home with a fabulous view

Marsh Mellow was a wonderful place for a family member to recuperate from surgery. Not far from grocery stores and great restaurants, it was indeed close to nature, with the broad decks on two levels giving us front row seats for watching herons, egrets, kingfishers, butterflies, deer, and the gorgeous changing skies. Added touches in this home were the spices and other cooking extras available for our use. Coming home to Marsh Mellow was a pleasure.

High School Friends Weekend

Had a wonderful long weekend with old high school friends at Marsh—Mellow. The house had everything we needed, and while in a quiet location (with beautiful views!!!), was also convenient to things we wanted to do when we did venture out. Allison was responsive and helpful with any questions we had.

Beach / Marsh getaway

This was our families second visit to Marsh Mellow (2018). We were concerned about the Wild Dunes access and no golf cart. Neither was an issue. The house was even better than we remembered with some nice upgrades (AC was great). The views on the marsh for both sunrise and sunset are the best we have ever seen on vacation. Our college age son and his friend had plenty to do and full access to all wild Dunes had to offer and did not miss the resort pool. They did use the courts, the pool we had and we rented chairs through wild Dunes for the beach. Allison was on point once again responding to any text in a timely manner. With rented bikes, everything is within (3-10 minute) ride. When we went to the beach, we simply drove supplies down to the boardwalk and road bikes. If you want a golf cart simply rent early. Overall we loved this stay and will be back again. The house and location are amazing to unwind.

Marshmellow

The area is lovely, the house is rather secluded and private which we found appealing. The views were exceptional and bathrooms and kitchen clean. We never were able to open the garage so couldn't take advantage of the golf cart or bikes.... besides that, no problems.

About the host

Host profile image
Our family has owned 31 Marsh Island Ln since it was built in the 1980s. My grandfather built a home on the front beach in the 1940s which is still there at 3308 Palm Boulevard. When I was a child, we used to crab at the end of Wild Dunes which is now a golf course! I bought 31 Marsh Island Lane in 2013 and totally remodeled the home in 2014. Wild Dunes has been our home away from home for years, and we hope you love the island as much as we do!
