Summer Dreaming Part 2: Carolina in My Mind

I’ve never been to South Carolina, but I know their beaches are rated among the best in the United States, the golf courses are top-notch, and everyone raves about the charm of Charleston.  So, as I daydream about summer vacation, I find myself gravitating towards all of Zillow’s South Carolina rental listings — particularly along the South Carolina coast. As you’ll see below, I found some real gems.


511 Cobby Creek Lane, Johns Island, SC 29455 (above)

4090 E Amy Lane, Johns Island, SC 29455 (above)
Such a charming red house on a corner lot. I can just picture sitting in a rocking chair on the wrap-around porch, enjoying some sweet tea or lemonade. Access to the community pool and walking trails are just an added bonus.

16 Henry Lane, #7, Hilton Head, SC 29928 (above)
This 4-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom town house is a real steal for $2,200 a month. In addition to a beautiful kitchen, this home has a private screened-in pool and is within walking distance to the beach. And I love the second floor enclosed deck.

106 W Shipyard Rd, Mount Pleasant, SC 29464 (above)
From the gourmet kitchen, to the master bedroom with lake views, to the quick commute to downtown Charleston, this home has it all and more. And by more I mean a music room, breakfast room, butler’s pantry, spacious laundry room, Brazilian cherry, Travertine and marble flooring, and French doors leading to double front porches.
