1. Dirty underwear was found in a corner under a chair upon arrival. 2. There is mold in the shower stall downstairs because there is no fan or air vent so it’s difficult to get dry in such a tiny space with no air flow. 3. There is mold on the upstairs shower curtain as well. 4. Make sure you bring garbage bags for the bathroom cans and the kitchen trash can. 5. The cancellation policy is fluid so apparently he changes it when he wants to. I booked 10 months in advance with the cancellation policy stating that a full refund would be given for cancellation within 30 days of arrival. When I needed to cancel the host was rude and whined about it. I agreed to stay because I am not accustomed to being treated in this manner and was completely caught off guard. 6. Be aware that you will not be able to use the oven when you are there. We had to throw away food that we opened and were about to prepare until the smell of gas became so strong that it would have posed a danger if we had not immediately shut it off. 7. The host showed up on the day before our departure unannounced to cut the grass but then didn’t and it did need it. We were, however able to tell him about the oven. 8. Communication is at the hosts discretion. He doesn’t list the instructions for check in at 4pm so at 4:30 after trying to make contact regarding check in instructions 4 times throughout the day we chanced it and the door was open thank goodness. I did hear back from him somewhere between 6:15-6:30pm. He then stated that the instructions were in a booklet which we found. They state that there should be a key well, there is not. There is a code which he gave me, thankfully this time answering a text. Clearly the book of instructions needs an update. 9. Bottom line, the host seems only interested in making money but not making the rental suitable for the prices he charges. 8, 500.00 for 1 week even in this location for the headaches we had to endure were not worth it. He stated that if you contact him directly and not through the insured booking sites you can get a much better price. I cannot for the life of me understand why anyone would wish to stay at such a place for any amount of money a second time but if you are that person good luck!

We enjoyed our stay here at the IOP. We had a large group (7 adults and 6 kids). There were plenty of bedrooms to go around but the common area (kitchen and living room) was a little small for our large group. We did end up cooking several meals there. The oven smelled like natural gas so we were a little weary to use it. I was able to communicate with Phil about our concerns. He was usually responsive.

Best owner responsiveness ever. Communicated immediately when questioned. Very convenient location and short walk to the beach. Older unit but well-maintained and clean. Would stay again.

We had an amazing time for our sons wedding weekend . The house had plenty of charm and amenities. Phillip was very quick with his responses for questions we had . Great location and perfect for family’s or multiple family’s . We appreciated all of the information sent to us with our check-in, which was by the way , very easy . We would love to visit again !

This property was very comfortable and well stocked. We had multiple ages with our family of 10 and there was plenty of room. TV remotes were missing and Phil, the host, promptly brought them to us.

We had a great time. The house was very clean and plenty of space for all 13 of us! Phil was available for questions and even to get the pool ready for us! Thank you for allowing us to share your home for such a wonderful time!

We stayed at this awesome beach getaway for a girls weekend getaway. It was perfect. Tons of room and well stocked. It was a short walk to the beach and with lots of local good restaurants and short trip to downtown. We loved the quaint, quiet little town of Isle of Palms. We will definitely be back.

The house was very comfortable. It was well worn, but very charming. The location was incredible and the neighborhood was quiet and so serene! I would recommend this property without hesitation. We are already thinking of going back, with our kids this time!

Enjoyed the patio, pool, grill in the evenings and the screened in porches. The location is perfect for excursions into Charleston and Plantations. As my Grandson told Phil “Best Vacation House Ever”. We had a wonderful time!!! Thank you Phil.

Great location and owner was easy to communicate with. Close to everything. Would recommend staying at this house. It was perfect for all of our needs.

We stay in the area every year and this home was amazing! The kids loved the feel and the pool was perfect. Will be coming back again!

What a great location with old southern charm. This home has a beach cottage vibe to it which was lovely. We had 10 adults with us. (All children were 18 and up.)They enjoyed the short walk to the beach, the pool on premise and enjoyed the walks/bike rides for other local activities. The Marina has paddle board and kayaks for rent. We were able to enjoy a day exploring the inner coastal. It was very easy to communicate with the property owner as well. Management got back to us with in an hour if we needed anything g at all.

We had the best family time together. The house provided great beds, plenty of bedrooms, a pool, short walk to beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there.

Can’t say enough about Phil! Phil was a great communicator before and during our stay. We had a small problem with the kitchen sink clogging on our second day there. Phil was there by 10 am the next day to fix the drain and even brought us freshly caught Mahi ! A very kind and personable host. We had 2 elderly parents and 5 other adults plus an infant in the house and did not feel crowded. The 2 porches are so nice to sit and relax, pool area is wonderful. The house itself is a bit older than I expected but really charming. The master suite is lovely, bed was very comfortable. Overall cleanliness was good except the tile floor downstairs which appeared to need a good mopping. Location is perfect, away from the noisy main road but east walk to beach. My elderly parents had no trouble. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning. Thanks, Phil !

Great place to stay. We traveled from PA for a family wedding and this place accommodated 4 families comfortably. It met our expectations and then some.

This place was great. The kids swam in the heated pool every day, even on the 54-degree day. The location is perfect, with the beach within walking distance and the house is not right on the busy main road, but a quieter side street, which was great. The house was squeaky-clean and had everything we needed for an awesome vacation.

The house was very clean and in a great location. Phil the owner was fantastic. Not everything went perfect but let me tell you Phil was on top of it and very customer oriented. My only constructive criticism is that the starter packs of household goods was a little sparse. Example: only 3 trash bags for the kitchen trash included. Only 1 extra roll of TP for the whole house. We were very happy with the house, location, and property.

We were looking for a get away for our family and a few of their friends. This house was the perfect fit! There was plenty of room for everyone and the beach access and heated pool were awesome! We came in early March so the heated pool was a win!We will not look anywhere else for our next visit to IOP, can't wait to return!

Wonderful location - only a short walk to the beach. Great house for 80+ parents and dogs. We had a wonderful weekend getaway.

Loved the place! Comfy beds, great places to hang out. We stayed with my family of 7 plus my mother in law and my sister’s family too. That was a total of 13, only 2 of the 13 were children ages 5 and 8. Pool was enjoyable. Even though weather was uncooperative (cold/rainy) we were able to enjoy the beach a few times in between rain and the property had books and games and TV. Phil even brought extra items for the kids ( lego building set/kids books). Phil made sure everything was going well and that we didn’t need anything but if something should come up how to contact him. When I had a question he was responsive and I felt taken care of. We will definitely be back again. My two oldest teens (cousins) said they’ll even be back in 10years with their families to recreate this stay!

Beautiful and accommodating! Would recommend this place for any family or large group. Location is perfect and the house has everything you need. Beds were great!

This was a good get away!!

Stayed for long weekend for my sons wedding, lots of family togetherness! House was perfect for us, weather cooperated was unseasonably warm and we got to take the short stroll to the beach and actually not a long beach walk to the pier and restaurants etc. Which would have been great if not for covid restrictions on dine in etc., house itself is very well equipped with everything we needed and more, very roomy and pretty. Loads of parking, owner is super nice and responsive, hopefully we can stay again and enjoy more of the house functionality, pool, grill etc. Thanks!!!

The house was well stocked with everything we needed. A short walk to the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our time by the pool and on the porches! Would stay again!

Our experience was perfect. Easy smooth transaction, house was ready on time and was just as described. The home had plenty of space, Pool was a perfect size and the beach access was perfect! We will definitely be recommending this home to all our friends and family! Thankful for a great time in Phil’s house enjoying the beautiful Isle of the Palms!!!

This house was perfect for a large group. 12 guys in our group and it has all you need and we loved the pool. Phil, it was great to meet you and hope to stay again. thank you, Keith

We had a great time at this house! The location was amazing and was perfect size for our group of 12. It was very close to the beach as well as the grocery store/restaurants. The house was very clean and having the pool was such a great addition. The owner was very communicative and quick to respond to the WiFi issue we had. I would definitely recommend staying here if you are booking a trip to IOP.

Phil and his wife were the best hosts! Their home is wonderful! They were attentive and concerned all week that we were getting the most out of our vacation. I would highly recommend their home to any family!

Perfect for my family of 11. Close walk to beach, pool in the backyard. Great trip.
