We have been coming to Wild Dunes for years. This year was one of our best stays! This house was very clean and inviting. Clean houses are very important to us, and this met our expectations. And the ice machine was everyone's all-time favorite!

Amazing property, just a hundred from the beach on a path. The house is in great condition, kitchen is well stocked, good privacy, very clean, and great neighborhood. We were a party of 8 older adults. Love Isle of Palms and the people and a shout out to Jill at East Islands, made our stay the best.

What a great time we had! The home had a great location, and was plenty spacious for our two families (4 adults & 4 kids). Key features, the screened in porch, the chic fil a ice machine haha, right next to beach access. Downfalls, the living room couches need to be replaced, the disposal had what seemed to be glass in it, and the TV downstairs skipped every min or so. Otherwise, everything was great, we honestly really liked the house and would come again. Memories were made
