Welcome to our fun and quirky vacation home at Edisto Island, South Carolina, your perfect coastal island destination any time of the year. Nestled approximately 45 miles south of Charleston and east of Walterboro, Edisto is one of South Carolina’s largest barrier islands. Enjoy a scenic drive along Historic Highway 174, which winds through moss-draped ancient oaks, unspoiled marshes, and rich agricultural lands.

Like many vacation rentals in Edisto, we don't include linens, towels, or toiletries. However, if you don't want to bring your own linens and towels, don't sweat because there is a local company who offers a linen and towel package. You can find additional info about linen services further down the listing.

Guest Access

Guest have access to the entire house and large yard. Only the storage room under the house is locked. If you are planning to bring your boat, there is PLENTY of parking space. You're welcome to park anywhere in the yard, except the back yard as there is a septic tank.


Other things to note:
1. We want to give you a heads up about South Carolina's local wildlife – it's not unusual to encounter Palmetto bugs (similar to roaches) or even small Anole lizards sneaking into homes here. Occasionally, you might even spot a curious squirrel!

2. Our house runs on well water, so if you catch a whiff of sulfur, don't fret – it's perfectly normal and safe. If the smell bothers you, free water is available at the Edisto fire department, or you can grab bottled water from the nearby grocery store.

3. Please understand that this is a strict pet-free zone. We have severe allergies and asthma, so any unauthorized pets will lead to immediate eviction without a refund. You'll also be responsible for any damages incurred, such as carpet cleaning or upholstery. - This applies to service animals as this is owner occupied.

4. Smoking is strictly prohibited indoors (but feel free to smoke outside). Failure to comply will result in cleaning fees and a $250 fine.

5. For your comfort, the house is fitted with window air conditioners and propane wall heaters.

Perfect Escape!
We recently visited for a short stay and it was everything we needed! The house was in a great location, clean, cozy and well stocked with everything you would need. Kimber was the perfect host. She made sure we knew what to bring, checked on us while we were there and even sent a list of places to see and eat while we were there. My family and I are already talking about going back ASAP!!

Peaceful Escape
The stay was cozy, comfortable, clean, and peaceful. You could not ask for a better host, she was wonderful, kind, and caring. The house was very clean and I loved the rules and regulations, because they are the same at my home. The beach lovely and many shells especially if you collect them, as we do. My husband and I could not have been happier and pleased with being at their, the host home. They share their home with total strangers and they treat you like family, so if you stay please take good care of their home. I would rate beyond a ten, we will definitely love to go back. I would like to also mention the host helps you with all things, especially if you do not know the area, as for us. I would mention her name but have not used this before so I don’t know if you are supposed to say names of host. I thank you for letting us stay and anyone that goes to their home please respect and support what they ask of you, treat it as you would your own. We thank you again, our host so much, and I suggest booking this home, quickly, because I promise you will not be disappointed by no means. Thank you so much very grateful and thankful, sincerely F & B Stirewalt.
