Sand Dune Ln 2 - Too Sandy

Perfect Location for beach and quiet neighborhood
My family of four (me, my husband, daughter age 10, and son age 8) stayed at Too Sandy in April 2014. Location: The location was outstanding. The beach is clean and a delightful place to spend the day. In addition to swimming and playing in the sand, we also enjoyed riding bicycles on the beach at low tide. The beach is only a short distance from the house, less than a 5 minute walk, but when you are at the house you feel like you have escaped the hustle and bustle of the people on the beach. The house is located in a quiet, well maintained neighborhood. The neighborhood pool was nothing to brag about, but honestly we were there for the beach and not the pool. The house is located within a 30 minute drive of everything you could want, including downtown Charleston, mini-golf, shopping, restaurants, grocery stores, etc. House: This is a great house for a family of four. Would likely work well for a family of 5, however I think it would start to feel crowded beyond that. The house is all one level with parking under the house. The house was clean, well furnished, and very comfortable. A Keurig machine would have been nice for my morning coffee, but otherwise we found all of the pots, pans, and appliances that we needed. The washer and dryer worked well and was useful to have. The kids loved having tvs in their bedrooms. The best part of the house was the deck. The house is situated between two “first row” houses in just the right way so that there is a nice view of the ocean. If you want a full view of the ocean, pay the money for first row. For our needs however, the view was beautiful. We also enjoyed eating dinner on the screened in porch. Overall we would absolutely stay in this house again.

Wonderful time with family.
Great home base for a relaxing time while seeing the sites and sampling the cuisine of Charleston SC

Wonderful Week!
We loved our week in the Isle of Palms. The location of 2 Sandy is perfect and the house so comfortable for our family of 5. We've already booked for next year!

"Too Sandy" Review
We have vacationed at Isle of Palms in the 2 Sand Dune Lane cottage several time in the past and have found it to be a perfect spot for families. Our sons can ride their bikes to the pool and tennis court and the beach is just across the cul-de-sac from the house. We all enjoy the front porch with the breezes off the ocean and the sound of the pounding surf. We look forward to coming back.

Thank you for the use of your home - it was very comfortable & restful for us. The ocean views are great from this home. We enjoyed playing Scrabble & sleeping late. We've been coming to IOP for many years & this was our first stay in this home. Thanks again for the hospitality. God Bless.

Thanks so much for your beautiful house! My husband and I greatly enjoyed coffee on the deck each morning. We even had a hummingbird briefly visit us. Being so close to the beach but also in such a quiet neighborhood was ideal. Big thanks!

We enjoyed our fall stay! Very relaxing and comfortable stay, despite the weather. AS I sit to write this entry, the ocean is calm again and the sun beckons us onward, homeland to Seattle.

Simmons Seafood is a great store, beach combing was terrific (especially after the storm), and the island life is always relaxing. We played lots of cards and Yahtzee, explored downtown, and even found a local orthodontist to make an emergency repair. 

Thank you owners and to guests, enjoy your stay!

Thank you for the use of your home. My children had the best Christmas memory thanks to your hospitality. This is a beautiful neighborhood and nice home. Unfortunately, the rain made the first two days dreary but the last three were great!

This beach house has been out home away from the cold, snowy winter where we reside in Dorchester, Ontario for the past 3 months. Even coming this far south we experienced a number of below freezing temperatures, however, we were grateful that there was no snow! As we are about to leave this Easter weekend, the beach is full with warm, sunny weather, 80*

We particularly like Beachside; so close to everything and have been here twice before, although different houses. The beautiful beach where we took long walks daily, Charleston has so much to offer; great restaurants here on the IOP and as well in Mt. Pleasant and Sullivan's Island. 

This cute house has a great floor plan and it's a bonus to have a partial view of the ocean. 

Dunes Properties were the best real estate rental company in our opinion. They provided excellent service and we had a very enjoyable stay here and plan to return again next year. 

Thank you to the owners for the use of your home!

We came here for a family vacation and loved our stay here. Great view and proximity to the beach! Great outside shower!

Yes, it was PERFECT for my first weekend of RETIREMENT...and it was my birthday celebration, too! Friends came over from Charleston -FUN!

Your home is just right - nice, but not too fancy, very comfortable and relaxing - we enjoyed the screened in porch and deck, too!

Thank you so much for opening your home to us this weekend! We all LOVED the clean, cozy cottage feel - since we have a big family it's hard to find somewhere that we can fit completely. The kids all slept great and had room to spread out during the day. I was able to cook meals in the kitchen for all 8 of us - yay! That was a huge bonus. We all had such a wonderful experience and we hope to come back & stay here in the future. Thank you!

Thank you!!! We had an amazing time walking on the beach and walking around Charleston! It was lovely to come back each night to a cozy and clean house where family members could visit and enjoy one another's company! We are already planning on when we will visit Isle of Palm and Charleston next! Thank you so much! We had a wonderful time!

Here from Pennsylvania for a dear friends wedding. The house worked well for all of us. The view & beach were beautiful. We enjoyed out sight seeing in Charleston & all the great food. Now that we have been here I know we will come back. The area has so much to offer!! Thanks for the use of our home.

Restful & Healing!

We are leaving after a very restful and healing month.  We're from NJ and love the gracious life style of the south!  Your home is very comfortable and a great location to the beach & downtown Charleston.  Tennis and golf are great at Wild Dunes.  Coming back next year for 2 months.  Thank you!  -The Hanlons

Great Location!

Really nice home and great "location" to beach & to town of Isle of Palms.  We walked from the home's beach access near the IOP County Park to the Isle of Palms little downtown area (Ocean Blvd) to look at the tourist shops and get a hot dog & ice cream at Ben & Jerry's.  Merci!  -Frank, Peri, & Luke

Lovely Home! Great Vacation!

What a great vacation!  Your home is lovely and very comfortable!  The weather was great.  My husband and I can't believe how fast this month has flown by.  Thank you to the owners and also the rental company for helping us find the perfect place to call home for a short while.

“Second row from the beach, a 2 minutes walk through a private path to the sand! the house is very comfortable, the location is amazing and extremely convenient to all local amenities and trips to Charleston. Great stay!”

- Vincent B , Posted: 07/11/2020

“Perfect house for a beach vacation with plenty of room for the 4 of us and we loved the outdoor screened in deck as well as the open air ocean view deck. The property is not on the beach but it’s extremely close with literally a 1 minute walk. Being at the end of the cul de sac felt nicely secluded and it’s a great location just off the connector, a 5 minute walk down the beach to the small downtown area, and it’s also walkable to a shopping center near the connector where you can find anything you’d need at the beach. We will be back!”

- Matt K , Posted: 07/11/2020

We loved our stay! The location was perfect and the house was even nicer than shown in the pictures! We would definitely rent this location again.

On Beach Time

We really enjoyed our stay. The beach was just a short walk. We had a good and relaxing time.

Beautiful house, not too far from the beach, easy check-in check-out process.

- Garrett , Posted: 09/14/2020

We traveled to SC for my brothers wedding. This home was perfect- easy to access, close to stores but yet far enough off the main streets to be comfortable letting the kids bike. Loved the credit for equipment rental, too! Saved us from carting a ton of stuff from PA. The only feedback I’d give is that there were a few bulbs out in the property but there were spares in the closet. Great experience!!

We spent the week between Xmas and New Years and had a great time. House location was ideal with easy access to the beach. We enjoyed the great weather and sun deck!
