Johns Island Cottage | The Sleepy Shack - Private, Cozy Cottage for your next getaway!

1 Bedroom Cottage in Johns Island, Charleston

Come enjoy some peace and quiet in this private, simple (yet comfortable) cottage located under the Oak trees of Johns Island. 20 minutes from Downtown Charleston, Folly Beach, and Kiawah. Enjoy a fire in the fire pit, heat up the grill for some fresh seafood or take a hot shower under the stars! (Just to be clear, there is also a very nice interior shower!)
The Sleepy Shack is private, comfortable, and clean! The studio apartment is ideal for two tenants. Three can easily fit in this 500 square foot cabin if one person doesn't mind the sleeping on the couch.
The rear porch is private and guests have their own separate outdoor area with a fire bowl and grill.
The Sleepy Shack is within walking distance to Low Tide Brewery and a very close drive to other various dining options. Catch a movie at the Terrace Theater or enjoy some live music at The Pour House (within 5 miles).
Come explore Johns Island - The Vineyard, Sweet Water Distillery, the Tea Plantation, Angel Oak, the Johns Island Farmers Market. Johns Island is also ideal for those who wish to enjoy distance biking through the oak trees, rivers and marshes of this rural (yet convenient) area. The wide, quiet beaches of Kiawah are just a scenic drive down the way.
Or hop over to neighboring James Island to enjoy the fun and sun of Folly Beach. Check out the fishing and surfing at the pier, or relax in the tidal pools, or shop and dine on the main drag. Grab some fresh Seafood from Crosby's or Huff's and bring it back to cook on the grill!
James Island County park is about 7 minutes from the cottage and offers scenic bike and walking trails as well as climbing wall and other great opportunities for fun with the kids!
20 minutes from the heart of Downtown Charleston! Knock the sand off your flip flops and head downtown where you can enjoy extensive history, culture and (definitely) food options!

Summary: Perfect for a short stay while visiting my daughter at College of Charleston. Wish I could have stayed longer! Peaceful and cozy with everything I needed to be comfortable. Took the opportunity to go visit the Angel Oak nearby and 20 minute drive to my daughter at school. Host was lovely and communicated well to make sure we were settled in.

Summary: We had a lovely stay while visiting our grandchildren on the island. Great location, gracious hosts, and comfortable space for two. One suggestion to the owner is that they consider putting safety bars in the shower, particularly for retirees (like us!) There's a good chance we'll be back!
