Bayview's Secret
Extremely unique and spacious, family-friendly 1 king bedroom 1 bath, with a 2-bed loft above! This fully equipped apartment is conveniently positioned in the heart of Mt. Pleasant SC. Located only 2 miles from Charleston and in walking distance to Shem Creek that boasts several restaurants and bars where you can watch the beautiful sunset at the harbor. The apartment is attached to an occupied residence with its own, separate entrance and private balcony with creek views. ST250128 BL24012220

The Boathouse
We call it the Boathouse, but it could just as easily be called the treehouse. It sits just feet from a tidal creek amidst giant live oak trees. A short dock is right outside the door, so bring your kayaks or other small craft. Although cozy, it offers everything a simple cottage should. Shem Creek is minutes away, as are the beaches. Patriot's Point and parks are a short walk away. This is the closest residential neighborhood to Charleston that you will find in Mt Pleasant. ST250324 BL24-000442

Villa overlooking Charleston close to Folly Beach
Nestled in a bird sanctuary on an oak filled tidal creek lot with expansive porch views of Charleston harbor, come share a coffee with friends and family and watch a spectacular marsh morning sun rise. Located minutes to the famous "Edge of America" Folly Beach, beach chairs, coolers and towels are provided for an enjoyable beach excursion. Centrally located, you are a short trip to historical Charleston, James Island County Park Splash Zone, and neighboring barrier islands. Off street parking.

Charleston Harbor view, garage apt
Spacious apartment with high ceilings. The back porch has a fantastic view of Charleston harbor. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood, very close to downtown and also to beaches. Private dock, kayaks, bicycles (not fancy) and the possibility, weather and tides permitting, of a motorboat ride around the harbor. It is incredibly peaceful here; like being in the country, but it's in the middle of the city. Mt Pleasant Short Term Rental License #ST260371, MP Business Lic # BL-24-000056

James Island Creek Retreat | On the Water |
Welcome to my low country home on James Island, located on a tidal creek within a quiet family neighborhood. The large backyard is on a beautiful marsh with water access allowing for amazing views. It’s 7min from downtown and 10min from Folly Beach. Perfect central location on James Island to everything Charleston has to offer. As a certified US Coast Guard boat Captain I offer discounted private tours to guest. Please book ahead as the summer gets busy. IG Huckleberry_Boat_Tours for photos

Marshfront Villa In The Trees - Near Beach & Bay
"The most unique and relaxing place to enjoy the tranquility and experience of Edisto. We did not want to leave" - Sambo Nestled atop 360-degree marsh views, you'll be immersed in the exotic natural beauty and wildlife of the Edisto sea island. Hear the waves crashing at the beach from the front porch and watch the marsh tides rise and fall from your choice of the many porches. "Nature with luxury.. our group loved floating from the house out to the inlet for private beach days" - JP

The Garden Folly Guest House
Our architect said, “this is NOT a garage, it’s a Garden Folly!” Our Guest House has a bird’s eye view of the rose covered pecan tree and a vista of the marsh and the Wappoo Creek. When we rebuilt our 1930's garage we saved all the beaded siding and pine floor. My husband enjoyed incorporating many design elements and creative ideas. It was quickly becoming the Taj Garage. We decided it was just the kind of property we enjoy when we travel, so, Voila! we decided to share it with you!

Large Guesthouse with Private Dock & Marsh Views
This newly built carriage house is separate from the main house. The cottage is about 1,200 sqft so it very open and spacious and great views of marsh and our tidal creek. We have a separate work area with desk and a massive dinning table if you need more room to work or to gather with friends. Full kitchen, washer and dryer, massive shower, the list goes on. You may not want to leave! Feel free to go sit and have coffee or cocktails on the dock. PERMIT# OP2025-06925

The River Girl, Private Dock, Great Outdoor Spaces
