This place was PERFECT for my needs. I have 2 sons in the area and this was a central location for both of them. As a frequent traveler to the area, I am always looking for a place that will allow me to have my kids and granddaughter come and hang out with me. I will DEFINITELY stay again. Thanks to my host for making this a great visit! S. Fitzpatrick, Virginia Beach

Cozy Island Cottage was the perfect spot to explore Charleston and Folly Beach. The cottage was an easy drive to all points of interest. Our accommodations were, clean, comfortable and quiet. Having a great place to stay made our 20th anniversary more special. Our next trip to Charleston will definitely include staying at the Cozy Island Cottage!
