Hobie's Hangout Hobie’s Hangout, Beach Front

Sleeps 7 in 5 beds plus 2 full bathrooms in upstairs living space.  1 half bath and additional apres-beach shower in downstairs area.  Sorry, no accomodations are available for four-legged friends at this home. 

Hobie's Hangout is a quaint and comfortable beach house with a "cottage" feel, located ocean front on Isle of Palms.  This "old-style IOP" home was built in the 50s and will take you back in time with it's original solid wood tongue-in-groove wood walls (the original bead-board!) and wood plank flooring.   

This home is more like a "home stay" versus a true vacation rental as the owners still have many of their belongings here including their walls of family pictures, antiques passed on through the generations, and favorite artwork left to share with guests. Remember, the original  AirBnbs were homestays - until investments in lavish rental properties became popular and the short term rental market became what it is today.  This is not a lavish home - but it is a well-loved, well-equipped, and has been the primary residence for this family.   

Home is located in a residential area - house to the right has permanent residents.  House on the left is a large rental property.  Noise ordinance (and a hefty fine) prohibits loud music or other disturbances.  This is a great spot for families or girls weekend getaways.  PARTIES NOT ALLOWED in this home.  Beach visitor parking is allowed on the street but you will have 3 parking spaces in the driveway.

The Isle of Palms Recreation department and their HUGE playground is an easy 5 block walk from the house.  There are climbing structures, tennis courts, soccer fields, all first come/first served.  It's worth checking their website to find kid-friendly activities during your stay.  The IOP Marina is at the north end of the island, where a restaurant is currently being remodeled.  The marina store has fun souvenirs and a walk-up food counter with delicious lunch and breakfast items.

Two Smart TV's in common areas. There are no TVs in bedrooms. 

Upstairs:  The upstairs living space is around 1500 square feet.  It is small but has a cozy and “open” feel. 4 bedrooms about 10'x12' ea, (bed sizes king, queen, 2 twins, 1 full), two full-sized baths, one with a shower, one with the original mint green tub and fantastic original tile.  Living space with comfortable furnishings, eat-in areas include dining area for 6 and bar area for 4.   Kitchen fully equipped with cookware, dishes and silverware, fridge, microwave, dishwasher, drip and Keurig coffee makers, tea kettle, as well a s other small appliances.

Off the back side of the living area is an enormous screened-in ocean porch where you can enjoy the sounds of the ocean in 4 oversized rockers or at the teak dining table for 6.   Off the porch is an unscreened area and steps to go down to the beach path.   PRIVATE BEACH ACCESS right from the house!

Downstairs:  Footprint of the home is the same as upstairs but some of the space is being used for owner storage.  2 bedrooms (1 twin and 1 full), a half bath in the twin room. There are two indoor apres-beach showers. There is open space with a ping pong table, washer and dryer, and separate kids TV space, 

Out the back door is a covered area for lounging but many will bring chairs into the sun to catch some rays.  There are some beach toys and boogie boards for guest use.  There is no grill but you may bring yours to use during your stay.  There is a cold-water shower outside. 

The house has a septic system.  For those unfamiliar with using facilities in a home with a septic, there is signage in the home to remind guests of cautions to be taken.  There is no garbage disposal for this reason.

Linens provided for all beds as are bath and beach towels for 8.
