About this cottage rental
Newly renovated, well-designed cottage located on desirable James Island.
Open floor plan nestled under live oaks on a half acre property.
It's tranquil and quiet and provides the perfect location for walking to tons of restaurants, movie theatre, public golf course, music venue, boat landings and one mile from the county park that offers walking/biking trails, playgrounds, splash pads, climbing and the only dog park on the island.
Just minutes to downtown Charleston & Folly Beach!
The space
Live oaks provide a canopy over the cottage and many windows make for a beautifully, well lit spot with tons of natural light. Open floor plan offers a big bay window with bistro seating, a kitchen with pantry, coffee pot, toaster oven, and wall oven, and the living room is spacious with a couch, bookshelf, coffee table, and large TV. The bedroom is just off the living room where you'll find a the separate laundry room, queen bed with two nightstands, dresser, closet and a bathroom that features an alcove.
Guest access
Coastal Cottage is situated in the back of the half acre lot. In the front of our property is our sister Airbnb: Live Oak Retreat. It features a 3/2.5 one story home. Guests of Coastal Cottage park directly in front of their home. Guests at Live Oak Retreat park on the left side of the driveaway and along the side of the deck and carport. The right side of the driveway needs to remain open so Coastal Cottage guests can access their home. We have never had any issues with parking but want to make sure all guests are aware of how to share the parking space.

Wonderful location. Felt like a safe residential neighborhood. About 10-15 minutes to downtown and 15 minutes to Folly beach. Very clean. Great water pressure in the shower. Comfortable bed and couch. 5 stars!

If you’re ever in Charleston and you need a great little spot for 2 people at a very affordable price this place is perfect. It was in walking distance to everything we needed. The place was clean, kitchen had everything and a very comfy bed also. Will definitely look into this place again if or when we go back to Charleston.
