Sarah's Coastal Cottage--Near Shem Creek, Sullivan's Island, and Charleston!

Located in a true Southern neighborhood with palmetto trees and live oaks, this charming one-level brick home is perfect for a family getaway to the beach, exploring the amazing history of Charleston, or enjoying the charm of Mt. Pleasant. The waterfront, marshes, and beach are only a short bike ride away (bikes are available to use!). The home accommodates up to 6 adults and 2 children, with off-street parking for two vehicles.

This lovely 4 bedroom (3 + private FROG room upstairs) ranch-style brick home has been completely upgraded in the last few years, and the space is perfectly suited for 6 adults or a family (sleeps 8 total). Spend time in the morning with a fresh cup of coffee on the patio or stretched out with the paper on the over-sized sofa in the living room. Sullivan's Island, downtown Charleston, or Mt. Pleasant's Shem Creek area are all just minutes away!

Our home is a permitted short-term rental through the City of Mount Pleasant. Our permit number is ST260028 and our business license number is 20139625.

Very comfortable & clean!

We stayed while attending a couple of days at the Charleston Open. It was a great location in a very quiet neighborhood. The property was well maintained and the host (Sarah) was very responsive. We had everything we needed for a comfortable getaway. Would definitely recommend as well as stay there again.

Great Home Away From Home!

It was a comfortable and cozy home away from home. Great location. Close to Charleston. Close to the airport. Close to the beach. Great local dining options. Shem Creek just a few miles down the street. We will definitely recommend to others, and would gladly stay again on our next trip!

Great value just outside the city

The location and value proposition of this property are hard to beat. Just a short drive to all the spots without the price of the downtown properties. Ours was a golf trip, and this property was centrally located with amenities close by.

Fishing weekend

This property suited our needs well, for a family fishing weekend, with the boat. There was room in the driveway for vehicle and trailer, which was one of our main reasons for choosing it. The location was perfect for everything related to the stay, and to boat ramps, etc.

Great house & garden

We had a wonderful stay at Mount Pleasant - nice house with a great backyard in a quiet neighborhood! Everything (Sullivan Beach, down town Charleston, grocery stores, restaurants) is within 15min. House was very clean and welcoming. The property manager was great - very helpful and always prompt to answer any questions. We highly recommend this house!

Perfect for our baseball/beach vacation

Really enjoyed staying at Sarah’s cottage. Was perfect for our family as we had 3 couples. The room above the garage was fantastic for our teenager so he could have a dedicated space to himself. Kitchen well equipped with everything you could want for cooking. *suggestions include a drying rack for suits and towels and maybe a small vacuum to allow tenants to do a quick cleanup.

We loved Sarah’s coastal cottage! It was so spacious and clean. When I had questions for Sarah she got back to me immediately. Cute neighborhood and can walk to some shops and coffee. Perfect place for us to stay for family wedding in surrounding area. Ubers were easy to access also. Thank you Sarah!
