There is an electronic keypad door lock for the front door that guests will be given the code for prior to their arrival to access the home. There is parking for 5-6 cars on-site in the driveway. The garage is not accessible. I am a modest business owner in the area, and also live less than 5 mins. from this home. I always want to respect guests’ privacy, so I won’t be on-site unless needed. Someone may stop by and access the garage on Sundays to set the trash and recycling by the road for pick-up Monday, and stop back by to replace them. There may also be service professionals stop by the home during your visit for routing maintenance, however I will contact to give you a heads-up. I’m typically in the area to help with any issues during your reservation- just give me a call! This home is located just off Folly road at the beginning of a modest beach neighborhood. There are always neighbors out walking their dogs, pushing strollers, or going for a run. This is a very safe, and community aligned neighborhood. Please be respectful of our neighbors during your stay! Just off the back deck of The Lookout is a enormous tributary fed pond, that connects to the marshes. Anglers, bring your rods! Most of the time you can use knee boots to walk around the pond, or hip waders at higher tide. The pond has some decent size flounder and redfish, and I recommend Crosby's roughly one mile down Folly Road for general bait and general tackle. Be sure to check out Crosby's for some of the best local fresh seafood! For a full angler shop however, I recommend The Charleston Angler (12-20 min away). You will need a SC Fishing License, IF you happen to be approached by a wildlife/DNR officer (not likely, but I told you). There is a Walmart roughly 3 miles away, Harris Teeter (grocery store), and beach supply store across the street. The driveway for this home will accommodate 4-5 cars. There are cameras on-site for the safety of guests and the property. One on the living room, one on the driveway, one on the back deck, and one on the side entrances.

Our top Charleston vacation rental home tips and tricks:
Sticking to a rental home budget:
- June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Charleston area area. To book the largest vacation home within budget, we strongly suggest reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at Charleston area restaurants, beaches, and activities.
- Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
- Some property managers offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
- Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
- Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Charleston area area visitor guide magazines which include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.
Narrow your Search:
- Begin by choosing your potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
- Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. The Lookout- hot tub, heated pool, with marsh view has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Charleston area vacation rental search.
- Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before reserving the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms.
- Are you looking for unique amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
- Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.
- If your family is traveling with pets, search for a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
Advice for a wonderful stay:
- Be sure you get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your . Store the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
- Make a record of any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be very helpful if a dispute is filed.
- Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of issues.
- Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific resource to find the best local spots.
- Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
- Protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are gone, just like you would at home.
- Just before checking out, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
- Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and look for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
- Did you have a fantastic stay? Many rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
