Great location
Location and spaciousness of this rental was great. As mentioned in many other reviews- house was dusty dirty and furniture very worn. Could be a dream house with some TLC and a quality cleaning service.

Perfect location, needs a little refresh
Walking distance to everything you need—beach, restaurants, grocery store, state park. Kitchen and bathrooms are updated and well-equipped, only thing that could vastly improve the stay is less grungy furniture in living room. Otherwise great!

Nice older beach home
This is the third time I've stayed at Gulls Nest. I love the location on the island. Very easy access to the beach. While the house is an older style home, it's the charm I like and remember from my youth at Edisto. I'll always try to stay here.

Good location - good week
The location is close to the beach and the grocery store. The property is a classic beach house, not a 5* hotel. If you understand that going in you wont be disappointed! The owners were extremely helpful and very communicative helping out when we forgot a bag.

Cozy beach cabin
This house was great for our group of four adults and two dogs. We spent a lot of time enjoying the front porch, and while the interior could have used a more thorough cleaning, it was a fine place to stay for a week. We did have an issue with a leak in the ceiling that was not resolved during our stay, but the property manager was very helpful and communicative about the issue. Overall, would definitely stay here again!

Perfect for a group with Kids!
We had the most amazing stay at this house! The location was so close to the beach access point! The house was clean and had everything we needed! The porch spaces were amazing! The kids spent most of their downtime out on the front screened-in porch and once they went to bed it was the perfect spot for parents to hang out! We would definitely come back again!

Perfect location
The location of the property is perfect. Just off the beach, we could see the waves from the front porch, which we enjoyed throughout our stay. public access to the beach was a super short walk. There was plenty of room for our group of four. The house is old and outdated and could use some deep cleaning, but I really, it was worth the money due to its ideal location. Would consider staying here again.

Great Location
This is our second stay at Gulls Nest and are very happy with the accommodations. The location is perfect for beach access 1A and very close to the gas station and Food Lion. There are a few things that need to be addressed. The dishwasher is broken and I washed more dishes than I cared to. They need a can opener that functions and a vacuum that can clean the floors better. We did love the new floors and updated lock on the bathroom. The beds are very comfortable, make sure to bring linens. The air conditioner worked so well and the extra fans were a nice addition. The outdoor shower was very nice and helpful for a larger family. We look forward to booking again! We saw sea turtles hatch! That was awesome and took a charter with Edisto Water sports. Thank you! We would recommend this beach house!

Classic Edisto Home
The location is perfect! The home is as described, spacious, and had everything we needed for our stay. I’ve been staying in homes on Edisto for most of my life and this one is the true old school Edisto home. Nothing fancy but comfortable enough for our family. Only down side was the home was not cleaned to my standards, but we did not complain and were fine giving it a good cleaning prior to using the kitchen, bathrooms, and bedrooms. We left the home cleaner than when we arrived. There were also a lot of caterpillars in the home, probably from overhanging trees. This is something we have had in homes on Edisto before, so we cleared them out as we saw them and did not complain. But pest control service may be useful to prevent them from coming inside. Overall we had a great stay and the location made up for any minor inconveniences. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Wonderful old style beach house.
This is the second time that I’ve stayed at this house. It is not a new, modern home, but an old style beach house. I enjoy it very very much. It reminds me of my youth there at the beach. I find the house to be incredibly adequate for everything that I need. The house is clean, could be a little cleaner. But it has all the amenities that I could use. I will definitely return to this home again.
