The Cottages on Charleston Harbor

"We did a group family vacation here in August. Grandparents, siblings, kids and even the dogs. My husband and our two sons (8 & 10) did a cottage on the bay (Cottage #2). It was 2 bed/3 bath, great kitchen, living room, massive porch, laundry and Adirondack’s on the lawn to overlook the bay. Other members of the family did a cottage on the pond and others did a room at the hotel on property. On arrival the clubhouse is wonderful. Staff very friendly and a pleasure to work with. There was a lounge area overlooking the pool which had a great variety of small snacks, coffee, tea, water and juice. Despite other reviews, I found it very nice and adequate. The pool was beautiful and overlooked the bay with gorgeous palms and foliage surrounding it. It is 3-4’ deep but perfect for the hot humid days. There was ample shaded seating, lounge chairs in the sun, umbrellas, pool accessories, clean/well appointed bathrooms and towels. The clubhouse also offers wagons for carting items to and from the cottages, as well as great bikes for a scenic ride around the area (on or off property). We enjoyed all of these items. Our cottage was just gorgeous! Truly spacious, wonderfully decorated, cozy, high ceilings, ceiling fans, TVs in all of the rooms. The washer/dryer was so convenient. They do provide a small amount of laundry soap and fabric softener to get you started. The beds were so soft and comfortable. The view of the bay was amazing. We saw birds hunting for food in the rocks, dolphins, fish jump from the water, ships pass by, storm clouds roll through and amazing skies. My son caught a hermit crab right on the lawn. The kitchen is perfect. I recommend bringing some food storage containers if you plan to cook meals or syran/foil/ziplock bags. They provide trash bags, 2 rolls of paper towels, dish soap and washer pods. I loved cooking in the kitchen and we hosted a seafood and pasta night for 3 generations comfortably. The freezer does have an ice maker. We also brought ice packs. They provided good coffee, sugar, creamer, tea, honey. The bathrooms were beautiful. The master had a separate water closet, great shower and large soaker tub as well as two separate vanities. The other two bathrooms were equally beautiful and well appointed. They provide toilet paper, ample towels, shampoo/conditioner, soaps, etc. The back porch was phenomenal! I spent every single morning on it with my coffee. Enjoying the peace and tranquility. The view, the breeze (the ceiling fans were great), the wildlife all lent to a very relaxing moment. It would also be great for card games, meals, lawn games. We just did not get the chance to do so. The proximity to everything was perfect. It was so close to downtown Charleston, a ton of other towns, shops, restaurants, attractions…yet you could also feel so removed from it all if you wanted. My children are huge outdoor adventurers and loved catching lizards, toads, frogs. They also loved that there was a local gator living in th"
