About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Tree Top Terrace- is private, close to ocean & downtown on James Island..

Located at 1545 Grimball Rd Ext, James Island, SC. This spacious Home has serenity & unique kind of privacy which places you in the middle of everything and yet above, it all. It's 5 minutes from Folly Beach with Island life and only 15 minutes from downtown Charleston with its deep Southern culture. Even with all there is to do, you will love being here tucked in, surrounded by 60' tree tops, overlooking all. If you have companions, have them look up the adjoining "Lazy Susan" 2 bdrm cottage.
The space
A unique place has style all its own with high ceilings, big windows, room to think open thoughts. Inside it's light, surrounded by tons of 60' trees, & by bird life, (lots of red birds), all their calls and habits, create a world above that you are now in.
There's a second effect, the spiral staircase or the stronger wide staircase get you here. There's the terrace, the deck and the porch connecting you with outside. Inside it's really pleasant. People can feel so comfortable they want to "stay awhile"!

Guest access
You enter either up the front spiral staircase or take your luggage through a common area entry to the back stairway up to The Tree Top Terrace. It's protected by this huge live Oak between you and the road in front, lined by jungle ditch and overlooks an empty field backed by forest. Pretty private and pleasant!

Great Central Location

A nice clean, small apartment centrally located on James Island. Cozy place and Susan was very responsive and accommodating.Stair-only access so must be able to climb stairs.Some of the neighborhood houses are not very nice - but I know the island well and expected this. It’s an area that is in the process of improvement - but safety was never a concern.Overall a great place to stay while heading out on excursions into town (about 10 min if traffic is light) or to Folly Beach (easy 5 min again if traffic is light)Would stay again!

Spacious, clean 2BR ten minutes to Folly Beach!

My wife and I came to celebrate our anniversary and found the Tree Top a great bargain. The unit was spotless, with modern, updated appointments, plenty of clean towels, and easy access to Folly Beach. Susan was a great hostess, gifting us wine when she heard this was a celebratory trip.. she even loaned a hair dryer to my wife who had forgotten hers. We will definitely be coming back!

August 2024 stay (5 days)

Property was very nice. Access by stairs was not an issue for us but for others it may be more important. Beds were comfortable. Rooms had individual air units to allow customized room temperatures. Balconies were nice - we would have spent more time on them except the weather was warm & humid during our stay. We did not use the kitchen very much but what we did use worked fine. TV / living space was good for our group (4 people). Washer/dryer is in a separate garage area but we were able to access it when needed. Susan was very responsive as a host and ensured we had everything we needed. Overall location / price was the main reason for our stay. 5-10 minutes to Folly Beach and 15-20 minutes to downtown Charleston. We would stay again!
