Excellent property and great location.
This bungalow was very well appointed with great furnishings. I spent many hours on the screened patio watching the ocean. It was very quiet location. The hosts were very good communicators and addressed concerns quickly. Would highly recommend

Perfection
I don't want to praise this place too much, because it's already so popular, but it was perfect, & exactly what we were looking for! That screened in porch with the rocking chairs was a wonderful place to hang out. A few steps & you are right on the beach. You could lay in bed & see the ocean & hear the waves! Everything was as described, & it was nice to meet the owners. I hope we get to go back someday.

Great beach vacation!
We had a fantastic time, couldn’t have picked a better location on Edisto island. The cottage was clean, cozy and outfitted with linens. Edisto island is a simple beach town where you can bike to everything. It’s near perfection for a relaxed beach vacation. The owners were extremely responsive and easy to work with… we will definitely be back!

We enjoyed our stay here... The house is cute and although others labeled it "dated", I think of it as more "nostalgic"... It had everything we needed and sitting on the screened in porch looking at the ocean was my favorite part!

Idyllic Seaside Stay
Our stay at the Sanders’ cottage was probably the most enjoyable, peaceful two weeks we’ve ever had. The cottage was comfortable and clean, the location perfect (30 steps away from the ocean), and the pace slow. The people of Edisto are wonderful, including the hosts Steve and Betty Llew. If we didn’t already have plans for next winter to visit my elderly parents, we would come back next for much longer. But there’s always 2025! Thank you, Steve and Betty Llew. It was a pleasure getting to know you…

Great week at the beach!
We love Edisto and especially this perfect cottage right on the beach. Our most favorite part is the screened-in porch where we can hear the surf and watch those amazing sunrises. We have been coming here for years and will continue.

Great trip and enjoyed being directly on the beach
We loved the screened in porch facing the ocean as well as the deck on the front on the house facing the street. The round table on the porch was used for dining outdoors. Lots of hooks on porch to hang wet beach towels and swimsuits. A plus was the outdoor shower by the back steps with hot and cold water. Kitchen had a good selection of pots and pans as well as baking dishes.

The only thing good about the home is the view!
My family and I just got back from staying at this property. To say the trip started off bad is an understatement. The entire island was without power for 10 hours our second afternoon and the entire night. Having a 9 month old this was really tough as you can imagine! The way I am I’m not going to complain and bother the owners about something out of their control. I will say something though about issues that are controllable..such as the house is super dated from all the appliances barely working to a fridge that’s in need of some maintenance and a deep clean. I could smell a nasty undertone all week from the fridge and everything we put in it smelled and tasted gross. The pre-cleaning was below sub par. The house felt dirty and the countertops had to be wiped down just to put our stuff on them initially walking in the home..same throughout the house in all the other rooms. The main bathroom has a big crack in the base the part you stand on..which actually gives when you take a shower so you feel like your going to fall through the home while trying to bathe..The owners tried to blame us for cracking the spigot where the water comes out and sending us a picture like we did it. The shower is a hot mess and was upon arrival! Upon leaving we stripped our beds and I removed the mattress pad on my bed to notice a big stain. I double checked the mattress cover just to make sure by chance nothing spilled by accident and the mattress pad was stain free. Apparently whoever cleans the home never washes the mattress pad bc we are being blamed for the “stain” as well. This home is just not worth the value it’s being rented for unless they are prepared to make some serious updates. The living room furniture is all outdoor furniture which was super uncomfortable. I was told there was 3 tvs bc I asked since I have kids. We ended up bringing one from our house as well to be on the safe side…well there was only 2 tvs (living room and one tiny/terrible one in a bedroom) thank goodness I brought a back up even though we accidentally left it there.. The day before our checkout I get a text from the owner telling me he was told we had more than six people and we had dogs. I was like are you serious with this!?! I had family and friends renting homes near us as well so we had people coming and going as most do on family vacations so this was a turn off and super invasive. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere!!

Wonderful cottage on the beach
It is a relatively small cottage. The beds fill most of the space in the bedrooms. But it is right on the beach with a wonderful view from the porch, the weather was wonderful, and it was an easy walk (or an easier bike ride) to “downtown.” About an hour drive to Charleston. The local state park has wonderful short hikes. Several local restaurants were great (eg Flowers Seafood, Tortuga’s). We will be back!

Perfect Beach House Location
I returned to this property for the second consecutive year, but brought some friends for a girls-only week this time! This perfect beach house was just as wonderful as I'd remembered it from last year. Sitting right on the ocean, the waves can be heard at all times, the sunrise can be viewed by sitting on the porch, and you can even see dolphins playing not far off the beach. We had plenty of bed and bath linens, and it was so nice to have the washer and dryer so we didn't have to pack too many clothes. We cooked many of our meals while there, and we had all the pots/pans/utensils/dinnerware that we needed. Do bring along, or plan to buy at the local Food Lion, pretty much ALL of your paper supplies. We had to buy t.p., paper towels, kitchen trash bags, hand soap, and dish soap because there was not enough there for the three of us for the week. The water filtration system (and ice maker!) is amazing...no need to buy bottled water, and we never ran out of hot water in the shower. The only issue we had was that the t.v. remote was nowhere to be found, so we couldn't use any of the Smart TV capabilites, nor watch any of the DVDs we brought (couldn't change the input on the t.v. to recognize the DVD player). The owner said they were going to be replacing that, though, when we contacted her about it. No matter....there were LOTS of other fun things to pass the time while we vacationed in this wonderful island property. Hope to be back again next year!

Awesome porch and a great house!
Some people might think it's crazy to go to the beach in January. However, when you stay in a cute bungalow with the best screened porch ever, it is absolutely awesome! The house is small but really cute, and the screened porch is the place to be.....drinking coffee, watching the sun rise, working on a jigsaw puzzle on the porch table, watching the tide come in and out - rain or shine, rocking in the most comfortable rockers made the week sail by. Thank you for being dog friendly - my two Basset Hounds had fun as well. I'll definitely be back - Bonnie

Perfect location right on the beach with screened back porch with view of beautiful sunrise & sounds of surf. Loved waking to the orange-pink sunrise in south-facing bedroom. Everyday was a beautiful start with breakfast on porch facing beach.
