Marsh Mellow is the perfect getaway!
We are three couples who attend the Charleston Open tennis tournament every year. For the last three years, we've chosen to stay at Marsh Mellow and we are always delighted! The marsh views are fabulous, both from the panoramic glass windows facing rear of house---and the two story porch. The house is decorated beautifully with art and paintings, like a home, not a rental. The house manager Allison is super responsive and the house is always clean, set up properly with king beds for us all and well stocked. Highly recommend!!!

This house is amazing. The house is gorgeous and the views are stunning. There’s a view of the Marsh from the back of the house and the bedrooms. We saw deer and heron all over the Marsh. The front is across from a golf course. The beds were extremely comfortable and so quiet. We loved it and would go back.

Reconnecting family
Our family (mom, dad, 3 brother's and sister) all 45+ ages needed a place for a long overdue reconnect weekend. The setting is like something described in a Pat Conroy novel, and really set a perfect scene for all of us to spend time together and just talk and catch up. We absolutely recommend this home, its set apart from the rest of the resort , quiet, and has a 180 view of the marsh landscape. We spent most of our 3 days on the porch , it was perfect.

Gorgeous Setting
This home is situated with 180 degree views of the marsh. We enjoyed watching beautiful birds, interesting cloud formations and even a double rainbow! The house is comfortable and very well stocked. The sunroom and decks are perfect spots for morning coffee or cocktails. Access to the oceanfront Beach House and its bathrooms and shelter is delightful. The only thing that would make this place perfect would be to repair the tires on the advertised bicyles . I will be returning!

Lovely Get Away
Everything is perfect at property. Surrounding area very up scale. For us the only down side was steps....lots and lots of steps. About 8-10 alone to gain entry. But, that is a personal concern. My knees are bad, so be advised if you have knee or back problems this is not the property for you.
Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023
Response from VrboOwner on 20 Aug 2023
So sorry the steps bothered your knees. Due to building codes, all houses have to be one floor up due to possible flooding concerns, since we are on the marsh/water. Some new larger houses do have elevators, which if for rent, will list the elevator as an asset. There are also the hotel and five story condominiums that do have elevators. All others: if unable to walk up one floor using steps, this is not the best property for you. There is a bed and bath on the first main floor of 31 Marsh Island Lane. Thank you for the other positive comments!

Another AWESOME stay in Marsh-Mellow
This was our 3rd stay at this property and it was awesome! The house is set back on a quiet street and it's so peaceful to sit outside and take in all the beauty. They thought of everything...the kitchen is well-stocked, they have beach towels (so you don't have to lug your own), extra linens, fans, 2 ice makers!!, bikes, golf cart to get you around the island. It's just a pleasure staying there. The owner is super responsive with questions and concerns which gave me peace of mind. We will be back!! :)

Beautiful marsh views and a stylish home
We are group of three couples who come annually for the ladies pro tennis tournament in early April. This is our second year staying at Marsh Mellow. We love the location, the expansive, beautiful marsh views (especially at sunrise) and the well-maintained, well-stocked home. Especially good for three couples because each bedroom has its own bath. The property manager is very engaged and helpful. The house is also beautifully decorated and does not feel like a rental. Highly recommend!

We are very, very sorry that you were disappointed that you could not operate the television. We do include directions in the Welcome Letter. Our Assistant also said she would’ve been glad to have helped you had you called. Since the issue is not electrical, but digital we will call a digital expert and see if there is a way to simplify the directions. We apologize your stay was not as you hoped due to the TV. We do, however, appreciate your 5 star review for the other accommodations. Thank you and come back after we address your concerns!

Family Wild Dunes, IoP week before school
I believe this was our 4th or 5th time staying here, I have lost track but after this trip, it remains one of our favorite VRBO destinations that we visit. As fellow VRBO owners and operators there is so much we love and appreciate about this home - so many thoughtful touches that make it stand out. As always, the golf cart and private beach access is convenient and easy and one of the best aspects of this home. And the layout, so comfortable and inviting, with the phenomenal kitchen, allows you to maximize time with family, relaxing and making memories. We will be back again, we are big fans of 31 Marsh Island Lane. The Smiths

Amazing Home, Amazing Stay - Thanks So Much!
5 friends and I stayed at the home over the weekend as we were in town for another friend's wedding in Charleston. The home was exactly as pictured - it was beautiful inside and had a tremendous view of the marsh off the deck. While we weren't out on the town, we found it incredibly relaxing to sit on the back deck and enjoy the calm ocean air. We also were able to easily make the half mile walk to the beach to enjoy the ocean on Saturday morning which was wonderful. The communication with the home owner and her assistant was super easy and we felt like we were in terrific hands the whole weekend. There was a clear protocol for the entrance and exit of the property and we really appreciated the amazing hospitality. I highly recommend this property to anyone who is thinking about staying in Isle Of Palms, SC - one of the more beautiful southern areas I have ever been to.

Griffins stay
We totally enjoyed the visit. Everything we needed was available to us. The TV was a little tricky but we finally caught on to the technicalities. One major difficulty was absence of cold water in kitchen sink. More than likely the water filter is clogged. A new filter is needed according to our son who is a building contractor in Marietta. A minor concern is lack of laundry hampers in closets despite their mention in the departure checklist

2nd year in a row we’ve stayed, and we will stay again. Only thing that I think could improve is the foliage. Since last year it’s grown 5-10 feet and blocks a good portion of that beautiful marsh now. It needs to be cut back.

Serene and gorgeous view
Marsh Mellow was clean, well appointed and had two levels of balconies with breathtaking marsh views. The golf cart brought a whole new level of fun and convenience making the location a few minute jaunt from the beach. Watching the wildlife and thunderstorm roll in Over the marsh was spectacular. Highly recommend. We do not watch much television but if that is a priority, the seating is oddly arranged to watch, otherwise excellent getaway space!

Front Row Seat to the Sunset
This house is tucked away from the noise of the main roads so it is quiet and peaceful. You have a front row seat to the evening sunsets. You're just a quick golf cart trip away from the beach and other amenities in Wild Dunes. Also, this owner thought of everything.... there were beach towels, soaps and shampoo's, a fully functional kitchen, filtered water, extra blankets, box fans if you need extra air flow, hair dryers. Next time I stay here I will be able to pack less now that I know ALL that is there. The owner was friendly and super quick to respond to any question or concern.

Great location, clean home, well appointed with everything you need for a memorable stay, including wood burning fireplace (we needed it for two unusually cold nights), a golf cart, and very comfortable beds. The owner was very communicative, thoughtful and extremely thorough. Our only negative was our confusion regarding what we thought would be an actual king bed, but ended up being two twins pushed together. Otherwise, everything exceeded our high expectations and we'd definitely stay here again.

This house was such a great find! We were on IOP for a wedding at the Wild Dunes resort, and this house could not have been a better location…less than half a mile away/5 minute golf cart ride. We appreciated the layout- each room was converted to king beds with their own bathroom, which was great for a group of three couples. Our favorite part: the double balconies offer breathtaking views. So beautiful! The house was homey with an upgraded kitchen. We are already looking for a reason to come back!
