On either side of the hallway, you will be drawn to the interior doors that were window shutters of a historical Charleston warehouse in their former life.

The boardwalk provides direct access to the tranquil, secluded beach where the Gulf of Mexico peacefully laps the shoreline.

CaseyMichelle's place was beautiful and spacious. The walkway to the beach made getting to the water super easy, especially with little ones. The beach was nice and not overly crowded. But our favorite part of Michelle's place was the huge screened in back porch. Would definitely recommend checking it out.

CassieStaying at Michelle’s has absolutely ruined me for any other place. The house was better than the pictures. The beach? Just breathtaking. We had two young children and being able to walk back and forth from the beach so easily made the trip so much more relaxed and enjoyable. Such a great place and we look forward to coming back!

JorgeWe had a wonderful stay at the beach house! The home was beautifully decorated and had so many amenities, including local books to read and a fully-equipped kitchen. The home was peaceful and private, and the beach was uncrowded. At night, you can go stargazing! We can't wait to return!

StephanieThe house was stunning, the floor plan was great, plenty of room for the kids to run and play. The boardwalk to the beach was wonderful and an easy walk, there were even some toys provided. Everything was lovely and peaceful. We had a great time.

DebbiThe house was really nice, well equipped (what a kitchen!!) and spotless. The porch was absolutely amazing!! We spent a lot of time there. Just wish you could see the ocean from the porch….that would make it perfect! (Maybe trim back some of the foilage?) The area under the house (complete with private outside shower), sink with running water and a hose, made this a great beach house!!

Emma R.My family and I had the best time at Michelle’s beautiful beach house. The house and location were beautiful, and we enjoyed the peaceful, private location. It was our first beach trip as a family with our newborn, and it was just the relaxing, easy-going place we needed. I highly recommend and am thankful for our visit. Michelle was a wonderful, proactive host, who offered great tips, and made our stay carefree.

Tammy W.Great house! So big and roomy. Giant kitchen/dining area and living room area. Also giant screened-in porch - we stayed there a lot. Many amenities - kitchen more than fully stocked. We loved the ice machine! Nice boardwalk to beach. Even had beach gear for guests to use. We loved this house!

KelceyWe loved our time at Michelle’s place. The enclosed porch was huge and we spent so much time sitting outside enjoying it. The ease of being just a few steps to the beach was perfect with little kids. The beach was not crowded at all and the kids enjoyed finding hundreds of shells. We enjoyed being away from town so if you’re looking for lots of restaurants and stores close by be willing to drive 20-30 minutes. For us it was absolutely perfect spot and we look forward to returning again!

HaydenBeautiful location. Home was private and spacious. Great flow. Clean. Kitchen had everything and more that you would need. Huge screened porch was a favorite spot. The walkway down to the beach is lined with palms and the lit walkway makes it feel like your own resort. Beach was perfect and hardly anyone on it. Michelle got back to us within minutes with answers to our few questions. Would certainly come back.
