Family cottage one block from beach! 25 min from Historical Downtown Charleston

Isle of Palms
Family home- Elizabeth's Cottage

This beach house has been in our family for over 50 years and through 4 generations. We hope you will make amazing memories like we have in this house and on this beach.

The house is located one block from two different beach paths. You can take 21st Ave Beach path or 23rd.
Location is just blocks away from the front beach, restaurants, shops, and a grocery store. A short drive to the marina to grab lunch, fishing supplies, or walk alongside the water. House is 10 minutes to the heart of Mt. Pleasant, 10 minutes to Sullivan's Island, and 25 minutes to Historic Downtown Charleston.

The house can occupy 4 adults and 2 children. There are 2 Queen size beds and 2 twin beds. The kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, Keurig, plates, silverware, ect. Beach towels and sand toys are provided as you head to the beach for the day.

Our favorite part of the house is relaxing on the screened in porch in the rocking chairs, listening to the ocean or spending quality time with one another on our quiet street. Spend time in the fenced in back yard underneath the beautiful oak tree.

Come see why we love our little slice of paradise at the beach!

What a cute little cottage! This is exactly what I think of when I think of a beach cottage. The location was great. The house was very clean and ready for our arrival. Our host answered questions in short order and was kind. The porches were my favorite part. I would be happy to stay here again.

A phenomenal experience. The place was spotlessly clean when we arrived—somehow not a grain of sand was in the place. Check-in/check-out were a breeze, and the hosts were quick to respond to any questions we had. The cottage was perfect for us, my elderly parents, and our kids (13 and 8). The great kitchen setup made it easy to have meals in, but the restaurants on the island are all close by as well. Even better, it’s a 5-minute walk and you’re on the beach. We appreciated that the hosts had beach towels, toys, chairs, and an umbrella. But our favorite part might have been the screen porch, which was perfect for rocking and having a glass or two of wine after the kids (and elderly parents!) went to bed.

Excellent home in a perfect location! Very clean and fully equipped! Easy walk to the beach and having chairs, games, and towels provided made it so nice! Screened in porch was a heavenly spot for a peaceful morning coffee or a nightcap before bed! The backyard was huge and had the most beautiful old tree. Would have really loved some backyard seating options to enjoy it fully, but I just sat in the beach chairs! Great stay and will definitely be back!
