Club Ed Charleston

Club Ed is on James Island 5 mins to Downtown Charleston & 10 mins to Folly Beach. Club Ed sits on a 1/2 acre of mature landscaping that include azaleas, magnolias, camellia s and large Oak trees. Enjoy laying in the large hammock, sitting on the patio or using the outdoor shower...Spring is coming! Club Ed was renovated with all new Baths and updated Kitchen. Club Ed has all the conveniences of a home with all the amenities of a hotel.
Recent renovations to Club Ed include : Renovated (2019) Bathrooms, an Updated Kitchen (2019), refinished original hardwoods throughout home and new porcelain tile in kitchen/dining area(2019). New Roof (2021). New Heating and Air Conditioning system(2022). New Tankless Hot H2O water system(2023).

Memory Foam Mattresses with high-quality, hotel grade linens, including bedding, bath and hand towels. We have a New Washer and Dryer set you may use in Laundry/utility room under carport... also a great way to access the outdoor shower in backyard.

We have beach towels, beach chairs, some noodles, a boogie board and Frisbee all of which you are welcome to use.

The Location of Club Ed is Prime Time!

You are a short drive from everything Downtown Charleston (4.2 Miles to Upper King Street) and Folly Beach (7 Miles to Center Street) has to offer .

You are a short Uber ride from everything on James Island as well as downtown Charleston and Folly Beach.

Laurel Park is a very quiet private neighborhood. It was once a part of Mcleod Plantation which is located less than a mile from Club Ed and is available to tour(it is a Gullah/Geechee Heritage Site).

You can also walk to the Merchant Village Shopping Center (.03 miles) that has a Publix Grocery and several restaurants and bars...I recommend Bagel Nation for brunch or if you want to meet some local neighbors and watch a ball game try Martin's BBQ just down Folly Road.

Guests will have complete use of 5 parking spaces in front of home.

In addition Club Ed is compliant with Charleston County Short Term Rental Regulations:
Zoning Permit # ZSTR-01-26-01434

Working with Ed was wonderful and easy. He was very responsive and able to accommodate an early arrival after our redeye flight. The property was clean, comfortable, and in a wonderful location. The property was equipped with little extras to make the trip easier. We went to the spectacular restaurants, beaches, downtowns, historic locations, and took smaller trips in the surrounding area. I highly recommend this property.

The house was amazing! Not only was it incredibly clean, but the host was very kind and we loved the very functional layout for a young family. I cannot say enough wonderful things about our stay here and would highly recommend it. It had everything you need and I felt very comfortable letting my kids play on the floor. It was also very central and easy access to downtown Charleston, as well as the grocery store. The music theme was a nice touch and made it feel like we were on vacation. We would stay there again if it’s available next time we visit!

Lots of Space. Lots of Fun!

Definitely more space than we needed for two people for two nights, but less expensive than a cramped hotel room downtown on a holiday weekend! This would be perfect for a family or extended stay. Fun place with nicely-renovated kitchen and bathrooms! Loved the feel of it and the fun decor. Super convenient to the bridge into downtown or quick trips to attractions to the south.

Quiet property with a great location

If you're looking for a quiet place to stay that's convenient to both downtown Charleston and Folly Beach, this is a great option. The house is on a quiet street, but also very close to a shopping center with Publix and other businesses. Other pluses included comfortable beds, convenient parking and ample hot water for showers, even though we had six people in our group. The host did a great job of communicating promptly.

Great location if you have a car--excellent HOST !

Booked last minute and stayed for a long weekend to attend a family gathering in Charleston. The property was as described and all linens were provided. Host had excellent communication and left a nice surprise in the refrigerator for us! Location is very convenient for those who don't mind driving to local sights and beach. Property could have been a bit cleaner but it fit our immediate needs for the long weekend stay.
