Serenity Now | Charming 2BR Beach Cottage | Walk to Beach in Minutes | Sleeps 6 | Dog Friendly
Sometimes the best things come in smaller packages, and Serenity Now is proof of exactly that. This adorable two-bedroom, two-bath Edisto Beach cottage nestled among swaying palmetto trees is the kind of place that slows you down in all the right ways. Cozy without feeling cramped, charming without trying too hard, and just three minutes from the shore, Serenity Now is the perfect island escape for couples, small families, and anyone who has been looking for a reason to finally visit Edisto Beach. Consider this your reason.

The Home
Step inside and you'll immediately appreciate the smart, open layout that makes this cottage feel bright and welcoming from every angle. The large combination living and dining area is the heart of the home, a comfortable gathering space with lovely coastal decor and a relaxed atmosphere that sets the tone for your whole stay. The galley-style kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need to cook up a fresh lowcountry meal or keep things simple after a long, sun-soaked day on the beach.

Just outside, the large, covered deck is where Serenity Now really earns its name. Spend your mornings here with coffee and the sounds of the island drifting through the palmettos, and your evenings watching white-tailed deer make their unhurried rounds along the tree line. This is Edisto at its most peaceful, and it is all yours.

Sleeping Accommodations - Sleeps 6
Two thoughtfully appointed bedrooms and a queen sleeper sofa in the living area offer comfortable, flexible sleeping arrangements for your group.
Bedroom 1: King-sized bed with private en-suite bathroom
Bedroom 2: Queen-sized bed with access to shared full bathroom (shower only)
Living Area: Queen Sleeper Sofa
Shared full bathroom (shower only) serves Bedroom 2 and the living area
TV in the main living area
High-speed Wi-Fi throughout

Whether you are planning a romantic getaway, a small family beach trip, or a friends retreat on Edisto, Serenity Now has the space and the layout to make everyone comfortable.

Outdoor Living
Cool off on the ground-level patio after long, hot days in the sun. With plenty of seating and a grill ready for the cook in your group, this shaded outdoor space is the perfect place to wind down with a cold drink and a lowcountry barbeque before the evening rolls in. And with the beach just a three-minute walk from your front door, you will spend more time with your toes in the sand and less time getting there.

Location, Location, Location
Serenity Now sits in a central, convenient location that puts everything Edisto has to offer right at your fingertips. The beach, local restaurants, the marina, and the grocery store are all easily accessible. Rent bikes or a cart for the week and cruise the island at your own pace. This is what island life is supposed to feel like.

A Note for Guests Traveling with Pets
This home welcomes well-behaved dogs! Because Vrbo displays an all-inclusive price at booking, the pet fee is NOT automatically added to your reservation.

Our standard pet fee is $175 per pet plus tax, and most homes have a 2-pet maximum unless otherwise noted in the listing.

The highlight of the property was its location to the beach. Walk out the front door, and you're a few hundred feet to one of two public access points to spend the day at the ocean. We were disappointed in overall condition of the property. The interior walls are OSB sheathing, not drywall, and as such, the graining of the product and even the printed material listing is visible through paint in locations like the bathroom. The kitchen cabinets and drawers have been used and abused. It would be good to see this property get an overhaul. The bathrooms themselves also were dated and worn out. Both the front and side poarches are in need of replacement. There were a couple of boards that had been replaced recently, but overall, they were in poor condition.We also found trash in the yard, most likely tossed there by passersby that we picked up. Overall, a good experienece, but I think the cost of the weekend didn't mirror our expectations.

The house and property is beautiful. We really enjoyed our stay and the walk to the beach is not bad at all. The house was clean and tidy upon arrival. The young lady working the front desk when I picked up the keys was very friendly and polite.

Serenity Now is a beautiful little cottage located a short walk from the beach. We loved the decor and the beautiful beachy artwork throughout the cottage and the ceiling molding! So pretty! The dining table and chairs were our favorite furniture in the cottage. The kitchen was well stocked with pots/pans and dishware. We loved the landscape surrounding the cottage for privacy. The front porch was lovely, and the table of shells was fun as former guests wrote their names and date of stay on the shells. We left a pretty white oyster shell to commemorate our stay.

Cute Place

Inside was unique....open and spacious. Kitchen was very well equipped with plenty of counter space. 2 BR and 2 BA was very convenient. Very peaceful on the side porch in both mornings and evenings. The patio under the house could be a real sanctuary but is in need of tree, bush and under brush clean up.

Relaxing and comfortable cottage which is close to beach

We enjoyed our stay at Edisto and Serenity Now. It was a short walk to the beach and an even shorter walk to Whaleys a favored restaurant of locals and visitors. Our check in process was not what we expected since we never got the email about the office being closed on Sat..We did not see the instructions for the wi-fi since it was posted on the refrigerator behind the entrance door. Had to call an emergency number and was given a voice message about 3/12 hrs. later. A welcome folder with info about the TV, stove and local attractions would have been nice and what we had come to expect from our former VRBO stays. Overall, though, it was a very enjoyable visit. and different attractions would have been nice. Also, beach chairs in good condition would have been appreciated and had been provided previously.

Fantastically Fabulous

Everything was just as advertised. Was shocked it was right across the street from Whaley’s famous seafood joint and that was a nice surprise. Also the pizza place next door had amazing garlic knots which came in handy since I left the garlic bread at home I planned to make with spaghetti. Kitchen was well stocked. I couldn’t believe how close this was to the beach. Very nice surprise. I would stay here again and again. Our little family had the best weekend and as always, it ended too soon. Would definitely stay here again! Thanks for a great stay!
