".....great house for my family .....kayak..... fished ......filmed dolphins from my kayak at the entrance to the Wando River. .....short distance to IOP and downtown Charleston.....one day on the beach and two afternoons exploring Charleston. The backyard has great views of the water..."

".....this home is wonderful and truly embodies what southern charm is all about. Large wrap around porches to enjoy the breezes and views....Kitchen was more than stocked with everything we needed!  Absolutely would recommend this home..... amazing....."

".....this property is a magnificent house out on the marsh and river. Outside is huge, several gathering areas, wraparound porch, kayaks that renters report to end of dock, Great outdoor grill. Inside, the Art alone is gorgeous. Everything is supplied: luxury towels, linens, starter kitchen spices, huge refrigerator freezer, two downstairs sitting areas, large dining table....Everyone loved it....."

".....the views alone from the back porch were worth the stay! ......"

Savor your visit in a large multi-million dollar house, set on nearly 3/4 acre, surrounded by marshes, rivers and creeks, with stately moss covered oaks and winding waterways.  

....you have found a property that meets your higher expectations. 

There is nothing else like it this close to Charleston. What a way to experience Historic Charleston, the Beaches and the marshes! The location can't be beat, as is evidenced by the the area. This is an old historic neighborhood with deep history. Sip coffee on the wrap porches, have a glass of wine on the private dock. Pull in your crabs and cook them up in your kitchen!
