The place was cute and cozy. A lot smaller than I anticipated, but it works. I didnt pay attention to the VRBO ad that the shower is outside, so that is important to know, especially in the colder months.

My wife and I visited for our 20 year anniversary and Kokomo Cottage was exactly as advertised. The property was clean, bed was comfy, and the amenities provided everything we needed. We really enjoyed the centralized location to everything. We were able to visit multiple breweries, Folly Beach, Downtown Charleston, and many great local restaurants. Our host was very responsive and also provided a local guidebook with things to do ect, which was a nice touch. It was perfect for a weekend getaway to go and get lost.

Ken and Christine were absolutely amazing! When arriving at the property we felt as though we were pulling into our own driveway. The cottage was absolutely perfect for my lady and I. Over the weekend we got engaged and we couldn't have picked a better place to come back to afterwards and relish in the moment. "The Sanborn's EST. 2025" now lives forever on the surfboard. We cannot wait to come back!

Cozy stay for our beach getaway

My partner and I had a relaxing stay at the Kokomo cottage during our visit to Charleston. We very much enjoyed the backyard space and access to the pool and tiki bar that Ken and Christine have to offer. The mattress in the cottage was very comfortable and the rest of the cottage was clean and well-maintained. Highly recommended for a couple getaway!

A fantastic cottage just off the busy, beaten path. Less than 10 minutes from the beach and the calm that the distance provides is well worth it!
