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!. We are very allergic and cant take pets.we had to give up our own. It has been decontaminated to rid any allergy contamination for health reasons so sorry we cant take pets.

Treetop Escape

My husband, daughter, and I had a wonderful stay! The host, Susan, was so sweet and our 2-year old was so sad to leave our “vacation house.” Would definitely stay again!

This property was in a great location. It was kinda dirty but not disgusting. It was also over-decorated to the point of the decorations getting in the way and being kinda dangerous

Awesome place near the beach. I was familiar with the area and knew exactly where it was and chose it for that reason. It's is in a quiet neighborhood between the busy part of Folly Rd and Folly Beach near the marshes. Beautiful deck off some forested lowlands and wonderful home. Super convenient to everything yet so quiet and peaceful. Definitely planning to stay again. 5 stars all the way!

This little gem is so close to the beach, Charleston. Wal Mart pickup about 4 mins away, which we used daily. Air conditioning was excellent, nice sleeping spaces. We used the kitchen to cook full meals and it was equipped to do so. Great ice maker! Great dining area too!

Didn’t enjoy

It’s a shared property with host, that wasn’t advertised. You have to ask for code to washer and dryer in garage. On the third day we realized it was infested with “palmetto bugs” which are Florida woods roaches. We were 18 so finding a last minute hotel was a struggle. We found one but it didn’t have a check in until 4. We were unaware that we still had to be out by check out time at 10 as this wasn’t our fault and was an inconvenience. We tried explaining our cold food wouldn’t last from 10-4 in the car. When we first got there there were mouse droppings in the drawers of the dresser that we overlooked. We were very understanding at first and that was not reciprocated to us. We were told it has never been a problem and it was due to the heat and humidity. Said the bugs were gone the day after we left even though it takes a while to get rid of them as they lay eggs. She made it seem like it was our fault they were so bad because we weren’t fully gone and had stuff still there a few hours past check out time.
