About this apartment rental
Found at the western end of Sullivan’s Island, this condo is in a cottage built by the US government in approximately 1913. The cottage served as housing for enlisted female nurses that served at Camp Moultrie Hospital.
Our 2nd floor unit has the best views on Sullivans Island while optimizing privacy. Watch large vessels that enter and exit the harbor pass silently by the front yard. Dolphins can be seen swimming by most days. And look across the water to Fort Sumter- where the first shots of the Civil War were fired. The views are truly magical. The beach is lovely and generally only occupied by the small number of residents and visitors at the western end of the island. The cottage is situated right next door to historic Fort Moultrie which has many acres of lightly used grounds and paths that make for what seems like a private park. The beach going east is undeveloped for over a mile as the maritime forest and trails make for a mostly barren area. Walking west of the cottage you will see historic island homes, views of Ft. Sumter, downtown Charleston and the Ravenel Bridge. This quiet street and peaceful space is perfectly suited for young families and empty nesters. This is your opportunity to enjoy one of the few beachfront condo rentals on Sullivan's Island.
Restaurants and nightlife options are a short distance from the condo. Grocers and pharmacies can be found right over the bridge in Mount Pleasant.
If you love golf, tennis or pickle ball, there are courses and courts available.
Smart TV and wireless internet will keep you connected while away from home. You will also find books and games for your entertainment.
Enjoy the outdoor spaces as much as possible! There are front and back porches, a large, shared yard and plenty of seating at the edge of the dunes.

Kathleen is a very helpful and communicative host. The location is wonderful, right on the beach. It could get loud at times both night and day due to it being right next to beach parking. Porch is great for watching boats and dolphins go by! The place has a lot of beach charm and housekeeping does a great job.
As the host informed us, it is old and does need updates. Floors need to be replaced and are a little uneven in places. Walls could use some fresh paint too. Some furniture could be replaced.
We had lots of bath towels. Could have used a few more kitchen towels and wash cloths.
Wifi and tv are great. Kitchen is good. Had most of what we needed. Really nice to have a full kitchen with our one year old, and we managed not to go out to eat once!
All that being said, at the price point, the location is great but the amenities need updating. Overall, we had a nice stay!

The unit is very quaint, the living room a bit dark. HOWEVER, the front porch was so wonderful, we did not even need a living room. The location is wonderful and the sunsets, exquisite. We had a very relaxing week.

Enjoyed this perfect beach front cozy condo on Sullivan’s Island! So nice to spend mornings on the front porch with a view of the ocean. Great location to explore the area and especially liked that the condo was pet friendly. Host was very responsive.

Our family had a wonderful time at the beach cabin on Sullivan’s! The proximity to the water was amazing with 2 small children. We would pop out for beach adventures but enjoy snacks and meals on the lovely front porch overlooking the ocean. We watched dolphins every morning with our coffee and walked the beach each night for incredible sunsets. The space was the perfect size for our family of 4. There were no beach towels proximity, but there were beach chairs below the stairs that were helpful. We also left some kid sand toys down there for the next family to enjoy. The location and views of the property are wonderful and I would definitely book again! Thanks for sharing your space with us!!

The property is adorable and exactly as advertised. Lovely location with great beachfront and Fort Moultrie views. Knowledgeable host noted we would need a permit for our dog and we were able to get one right away to take advantage of pet beach hours. . It is well appointed for its size and we used the kitchen for some meals. Beach access parking a plus. It is quaint so expect some wind noise when those storms blow through! Lovely sunsets and use of chairs on the bluff for viewing.

This place was clean and comfy and cozy. We had fantastic views of the beach and spent the days watching the dolphins, birds and ships as they went by. The condo had all your conveniences and was close to things to do..like visit Ft Moultrie, the beach, Sullivan's Island resturants, etc and was an easy drive over to Mt Pleasant if you wanted to. We chose to stay on the porch or the beach and soak up the beautiful views. Our host was easy to get in touch with and communication was good.

We enjoyed our time on Sullivan’s Island. We loved the view and location. We did a lot of wonderful walking on the beach and the surrounding area which we found delightful! We loved that we could bring our dog with us!

This was our first visit to Sullivans Island and this house was in the perfect location. We enjoyed being next to Ft Moultrie and learning the history of Sullivans Island. We loved stepping right out onto the beach to walk toward the sunrise or just sit right out front for the sunset. The decor is as others described but the quaint kitchen and awesome front porch looking onto the beach and Charleston were perfect for us to enjoy breakfast and lunch, and getting down to the restaurants were an enjoyable walk or bike ride - via beach or Main Street. We rented bikes from the shop in town and were able to ride over the bridge to Mt Pleasant and to Isle of Palms. It’s nice that a parking spot comes with the unit also as you appreciate always having an easy place to park. Recommend and hope to stay there again.

Loved the location and the view. Quaint and well-appointed. Enjoyed walking the beach and the grounds of Ft. Moultrie which is right next door.

Very old and floors slant but anything you could need or want was provided and location right on beach makes up for everything else

To be completely honest, the unit we stayed in could use a complete update. It was comfortable-like going to grandmas house in the 70’s. We had everything we needed and the view sitting on the back porch overlooking Charleston Harbor can’t be beat! Also, with the chairs by the beach, it felt like I was on my own private beach! I would choose this exact spot again!

We really enjoyed staying here. It was very close to the restaurants and shops on Sullivan’s and not a far drive in to Charleston. Having the porch with the beautiful view was so nice in the morning. The yard and access to the beach was amazing!
