We had an amazing time at this property, and cannot empathize enough how kind the owner was when we needed some assistance. It was very clean, bright and a comfortable stay on IOP, a short walk to the beach and the grocery store. Rent bikes if you can. We will be back! Thank you!

IOP RETREAT

Pros: Fantastic location Large fenced back yard for the dog Comfortable beds Clean No stairs (one step up to enter) Lots of living space Ceiling fans Short walk to beach Well-stocked kitchen Lots of communication Cons: Bedrooms and bathrooms are tiny (good use of space though) There’s another unit upstairs. No one was there during our stay, but I think it would be kind of weird. That unit shares the yard. No fault of the owners but there isn’t a crosswalk for the nearest beach access, and it’s slightly terrifying. The drivers don’t like to stop. Overall, we would definitely stay again. It’s very well-maintained!

A good place for rest

Our whole family of grandchildren, parents and grandparents had a good time staying at your house. It was very quiet there, and that gave all of us an opportunity for a much-needed rest.

Would stay again!

We had a wonderful stay. The communication and responsiveness was great, walk to the beach was easy, location was close to good restaurants, and our kids and dogs loved the backyard. Some of our favorites: HomeTeam BBQ, The Obstinate Daughter, Patriot’s Point/U.S.S. Yorktown, Downtown Charleston, key lime pie from Simmons Seafood. Would definitely return!

This a great place to stay. As a couple it provided us plenty of room and the backyard was a big plus for our dog. A short walk to the beach and easy access to the supermarket/retail and Main Street areas. Nice restaurants on island. Plenty of room for two cars. Two bathrooms were nice but could be cramped for a tall or wide person.

Best Stay Yet!

We've been going to Isle of Palms for several years now, and each year we book a different stay, either because the previous year's location wasn't that great, or the property is no longer being offered. This year, we finally found our ideal yearly stay! As soon as the dates open up, I'm booking The Blue Oyster for my family next year. It was spotlessly clean, spacious, and the back porch, yard, and shower for post-beach cleanup of ourselves and our pets was more than perfect. We cant wait to stay there again next year, and hopefully the years that follow!

Comfortable, short walk to the beach

Our multi generational family enjoyed our stay at the blue oyster! It was exactly as described in the listing. We found it very clean and comfortable upon arrival. The outside shower was so convenient when we returned from the beach (a super short walk to get there!). Owners were great at communication. We will definitely stay here again!

Cute, clean, & in a great location!

We had the best time staying at The Blue Oyster! We came for a long weekend with a group of 8 girls. When we arrived, everything was very clean, and the hosts had left the sweetest little welcome gift! The beds were all very comfortable- bunk room included! It's a super short walk to the beach, and the street that the unit is on is gorgeous. We felt very comfortable and very safe here. Everyone in our group talked about how cute the decor was, and the outdoor shower was such a nice bonus! Would definitely recommend and would definitely stay again!

2/10 Terrible

Average house and poor rental company

The house was ok. Had some major issues with floor damage in master bedroom that almost cut my wife’s foot on sharp edges. Toilet in the guest bathroom was not attached to the ground. Yard was not kept up as the grass was extremely tall. The upstairs renters were extremely loud and made a lot of noise in the middle of the night and early in the morning. Rental company hits you with a ton of hidden fees. Weeks after booking they hit you with extreme dog fees. If I pick a dog friendly house and note I am bringing dogs then the fees should be included and up front. Notes all texes and fees included but that is a lie. I would not stay with this company again. Location was good. Also worried someone was living in she shed in backyard without us knowing.

4th of July Family Vacation

My family of 4 stayed here over the 4th weekend! It was the perfect location. Walking distance to the beach and renting a golf cart to head over to the grocery store or restaurants works perfect. The hosts provided great communication throughout the trip. Location was clean and offered all of the amenities we needed. We will be back!

well thought out property

They made smart use of every square inch of this property.. especially loved the outside shower area to get everyone cleaned off before coming in the house. The back yard was great for our service dog, and the laundry room was perfect for getting things stored until we needed them… only thing I would add would be some hooks in the laundry room to hang towels that are wet but not sandy from the outdoor shower so that you can throw them in the beach bag the next day !

IOP vacation

My family enjoyed staying at the Blue Oyster in IOP. The home was clean, provided everything we needed, and the location was perfect. The best part was the back porch and enclosed back yard for our dogs. We will definitely book again.
