Cottage rentals with a hot tub

100yds to ocean! Pool, hot tub, screened porch!
We had the most amazing time. The property is beautiful and just as described. My kids loved having the pool to swim in every day when they tired of the beach. Would def return again!

Little Cottage by the Sea-Hot Tub-Many Extras-New
This is indeed the cutest little cottage by the sea! Michael and team were super responsive and proactive with lots of recommendations. The cottage is beautifully furnished and appointed and was spotless and clean upon arrival. Very easy walk to the beach and it was nice to have the Sweetgrass Inn across the street to grab drinks and food. Perfect spot for three adults and two kids. We will definitely be staying here again!

Port O'Call - Shipyard Plantation
Beautiful cottage! Plenty of space, well laid out. VERY conveniently located for walking to the beach. What's more, the beach access is away from the larger public areas so it's not super crowded. A pool is also conveniently located. The whole resort area is very walkable / bikeable (as are large chunks of the island). Charles was easy to work with and responsive.

Modern 3 BR Cottage Home with Luxury Resort Pool
The house is cute and classy. I absolutely loved it. It had charm and a perfect homey feel for your home away from home. Trish is absolutely amazing, super quick with her replies and so nice. The neighborhood is quiet, cute and full of amenities. I didn't want to leave!

Southern Cottage between downtown and beaches
We had a wonderful stay in "Cottage in Charleson"! Our host thought of our every need, and provided a well-stocked home far beyond our expectations.

The Lil Pearl: Sand, Sun & Folly Fun
We loved Lil Pearl! The cottage was comfy, cute, and just a shady walk (or rented bike ride) to both beach and restaurants. Teresa was communicative and friendly and made us feel right at home. A fully screened-in porch would have been the cherry on top for us, but the screen curtains around the outdoor seating area are probably 100% fine for most folks (the mosquitoes really seem to like us!). Definitely recommend this lovely cottage on all fronts. Thanks, Teresa!

Shipyard! - Private Beach & Golf! Pet Friendly!
Great setting, plenty of parking, spacious and charming space, clean bathrooms and kitchen, very responsive and friendly hosts, close to bike paths and a 10 min bike ride to the Sonesta resort. Loved sitting on the back deck/porch in the mornings. Great stay and would stay again!

StarView Cottage A-sun deck with 360 views
Everything was exactly as described and you can’t find a better or more responsive host than Natalie. Natalie is a local and knows the area well and very responsive. The beach access, beach supplies, the outdoor shower, and the views were great and just as described. Excellent A/C in the house, which was tested and much appreciated during especially muggy Southern days. We especially appreciate Natalie’s personal suggestions that led us to Bert’s, which is the best and most unique local market anywhere, and her recommendation for the friendly, competitive pickleball games just down the street.

Bright Dreamy Cottage w/ Fenced Yard & Beach Pass
Alyssa is a wonderful host! This bungalow is so charming with the two porches and is larger than it appears in photos. It's very comfortable clean and cozy! Well equipped kitchen. Perfect for a week long stay! Thank you!

Parkwood Place Cottage
Leslie and her family were super hospitable. The location was great - easy to get to downtown or to the beach. The space was super clean and was great for the two of us.

Palm Key - Cozy Coastal Cottage
Kim and Lee were fantastic hosts! They’re great communicators and always answered any questions we had. If you’re looking for a relaxing place to stay at James Island, this is for you!

The Boykin Cottage in Park Circle
This was such an amazing stay! We were minutes from bars and restaurants and then a quick drive to downtown. Our dogs absolutely loved this space as well. The fully fenced back yard was a HUGE bonus. We would highly recommend!!

A little slice of paradise - Walk to beach
Really appreciated being able to leave my car in the driveway after checkout so i could grab a few hours on the beach!

Blue Cottage | Next To The Cedar Room
Easy check in/check out, the company was quick to respond and very helpful, great location, convenient to restaurants/shopping. Just the space needed for two.

Classic Folly Cottage
My wife and I needed a small place to stay that was close to the beach, close to center street, and close to my wife's family. Classic Folly Cottage was exactly what we needed! After driving down from WV, we parked my truck and didn't use it again until we left for home. The cottage was located perfectly in the middle of our needs and everything was easy to walk to. 10/10 we loved that little cottage!

Private cottage downtown- vaulted ceilings
Lyndy and Justin were great hosts for our birthday weekend stay. They were always very responsive, friendly and helpful from the get-go with local Summerville recommendations. Their cottage is spacious for being a cute little tiny home and private enough to relax without worry. We will definitely visit the cottage the next time we are in town!

Burkes Beach House - 2nd Row to Beach
The best thing about the house for us was proximity to the beach. It is one block from the entrance to Burke’s Beach. Beach chairs do not come with the home but rentals are available on the beach. The home was very clean and some basic pantry amenities were available on arrival. The front porch is great for morning coffee, book reading, or family dinner. Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again.

OCEAN VIEWS with easy Beach Access @ Pelican Alley
The house is as described or better for most categories. It is hard to beat the location, it is right across the road from public beach access and you have a nice view of the ocean. No problem running back if you forgot something or needed to use the restroom. The hosts were very communicative and gave some great suggestions. Great restaurants less than a mile away. The property is beautifully maintained and had all the amenities you could want for a week at the beach. We are already planning our return trip!

Lowcountry Oasis. Snowbird Paradise.
Amazing place to stay to experience low country. Great location with a million dollar view. The accommodations were above expectations and we could have stayed much longer.

Welcome to the "Lazy Susan"!
Very accommodating host with a well-located haven close to Folly and downtown.
