Couldn’t recommend this property enough. We went with a group of friends for a long weekend and the house, property, location were all amazing. Beautiful home with a massive yard and great dock.
Beautiful, spacious property on the creek. Plenty of space to spread out, relax, and recharge with extended family. Breathtaking views at sunset! Thank you for working with us to make this family gathering fantastic!
The house and property was so beautiful and the perfect getaway for my birthday from the dock and fishing to the round pool
We loved the outdoor pool house with a full kitchen and bath
We were so blessed to get to stay in such a relaxing environment
We are a group that needed individual beds for 8 people and this property provided that for us. It's a bit of an older house, but well kept and on a beautiful piece of property. The house was clean and provided us with all we needed. Thank you for the stay!
The Renee and Grant wedding!!!and great family time
A dream-
A nice house with so much space- in doors and out!
great bedrooms and full size baths.
The yard the dock the scenery and the pool house with the above ground pool recessed in the ground. Excellent!
This home is all about location, location, location! So peaceful and the view is spectacular. Right outside your backyard is a pier to the river where we crabbed, fished, and kayaked. We were instantly in vacation mode! There were plenty of bathrooms (4 in the main house) for everyone, plenty of room to spread out, and less than 10 minutes to a beautiful shopping/restaurant area. We will definitely be back!
When we got to the house it was so clean and smelled so good! It was also nice and cool which was wonderful since it was so hot outside. I feel like the host went above and beyond with OUR comfort in mind.
We were in the middle of everything yet had complete privacy on this large property.
The attention to detail was definitely noticed by everyone. This is coming from a seasoned VRBO family.
Deedee you are a fabulous host!
We had a great time! Our group consisted of 9 men. All of us are on the larger side so sharing a bed was out of the question. This house had enough beds for everyone and they were all comfortable. I've stayed in places that had beds that were worse than the couch. That's not the case here. There's 4 bathrooms. We had plenty of space for everyone.
Everything you need is there, literally. They have crab traps, fishing poles, kayaks, pool floats, etc. If you need something Deedee is very quick to respond and meet your needs. We needed an extra large pot and a propane burner to make Lowcountry boil. Deedee made sure we had it!
The house is really well placed for the privacy that you want but not so far out that you're isolated. The fancy shopping center just outside of Kiawah is about 5-10 min drive away. Downtown is about 30 minutes away.
Great property for large get togethers.
We planned a "staycation" for my 50th, our youngest son's 18th birthday and Mother's Day which all fell on the same weekend. Our experience could not have been better! I would definitely recommend...10 out of 10!!!
Lots of space. Great kitchen. Nice decks and river access. Great for large gathering. We had a great time. Great location to beach, downtown Charleston, and sites to see.
We had a great time and everything was set up very nicely. We had 4 couples and a small rehearsal dinner for the wedding. The weather was sort of cooperative. Would definitely stay again.
We had a great stay and all came away with special memories. We even caught a shark off the dock. Deedee was very responsive to any questions that came up. This was the perfect place for us! Thank you!
Our son got married to a wonderful woman and we couldn’t be happier! The house and property is amazing. We had family travel from across the U.S. If you’re seeking a spot to stay , this is it! The Carolina Girl, the weather, and area made this week of memories something that will be cherished!
Upon pulling up to the house and seeing the view that we got to look at for the next few days, it was amazing. The sunsets were remarkable. The weather was perfect. The house was fully equipped and everything was clean and accommodating for my whole family. I couldn’t ask for a better place to spend time with our loved ones.
Property was great. House was great. Owner responded quickly to any question and was very accommodating.Wi-Fi was intermittent and we had some trouble streaming movies at night.I’d go back any time.
We rented Didi’s house as part of our wedding weekend. We both are born and raised in Charleston and currently live on James Island. However, we want we knew we wanted somewhere for all of our gas to gather before the day of the wedding and through the weekend. The house was absolutely spectacular. The view was even better! All the beautiful upgrades and extra amenities were a plus. The kids were kept busy, whether it was in the heated pool, or in the pool house area with all the games, we’re on the outside swing, which was fabulous. The adults enjoyed the beautiful views, while sipping on some beverages while the guys were able to utilize the pool house, kitchen and grill for cooking while enjoying the amazing property outside. they were plenty of rooms for all of our guests and absolutely fabulous linens towels, and the mattresses were amazing! We highly recommend this property for anyone who is coming to visit Charleston or even for those in Charleston looking for a little bit of a staycation. Deedee, thank you times a million for allowing us to rent your amazing home!! We hope to be able to do it again sometime soon!!

To preface this review, I have never had to leave a negative review for a property before and am confused by how this property received so many positive reviews, which are what lead us to book in the first place. Pros:The property itself is peaceful, beautiful and has many unique features like the dock, marsh and access to water. Cons: The house itself. It is very run down, dirty and broken. Perhaps when they first started hosting at this property, things were different and that prompted the previous positive reviews. However, on July 31st, 2025 when we checked in, the property was in disrepair. For example, broken and loose door handles, outlets and towel racks, holes in the walls and flooring and not functioning appliances in the outdoor kitchen ( the stove and sink). It was also generally unclean with stained furniture, dirty trash cans and pool. It was also lacking basic necessities like trash bags, hand soap in bathrooms and hangers in closets. While the host was initially cooperative, she became rude and condescending as we continued to communicate and untimely left for vacation.My family made the best of it, as we had no choice traveling from out of state with ages ranging from teenagers to 85. However we were severally disappointed with the rental, especially at its price point of over 1000 a night.
