In Spite of Ourselves is a wonderful Edisto Island home with deep water access on Fishing Creek - a lovely spot for you and your family to enjoy. Updated in the winter of 2019, the home is beaming with joyful sunlight, reminding you that you're surrounded by beauty and peace that can only be found in the Lowcountry of South Carolina.

Whether you enjoy boating, birdwatching, crabbing, fishing, kayaking, or just a spectacular view of Edisto's beauty, the vantage points from the expansive, wrap-around, covered deck and covered pier head on the private dock are nothing short of awe-inspiring. If boating is on your vacation agenda, take advantage of the private boat landing just steps from the house. Bring your fishing poles and crab traps and cook your day’s catch on the ground-level patio while taking in scenes of the salt marsh that many species of birds and wildlife call home. This home is also perfectly situated just over a mile from the sandy beach for those who want to take in the glorious southern sun. Don’t forget your cameras and reignite your love of the outdoors - all you need is waiting for you.

Creek Family Fun

This is the best place to enjoy nature relax and connect with the family - we loved riding the creeks and dolphin watching - this house gives a different twist on a beach vacation - We did visit the beach too - it was a quick ride to any beach access. Edisto has great accesses that all have a great shoreline 😊

Great get away

Well weather did not cooperate but beautiful setting, took some great pictures with my new camera! Kitchen was stocked wonderfully! Upstairs great for kids but a little warm at times. Will definitely stay again! Maybe fish will bite then!

Beautiful Home!

We loved our stay! The privacy, shade and view from the home is wonderful. The private dock and boat ramp was what peeked our interest and was so convenient for our guys that love to fish. The house was very clean and updated. The kitchen had lots of cookware and utensils. We did have to drive to the beach but it was not far and we didn’t find it to be inconvenient. The only reason I did not give this review 5 stars was because the upstairs room was quite warm. Even with a mini ac and fan it was particularly warm during the day. The ac air was not cold so the room stayed warm. Night time was tolerable. We liked that the upstairs had several beds. It was good for the teenagers. We look forward to our next visit!

Teaching the grands

Wonderful place to take the grands and educate them about marine life. However it needs a window air conditioning unit upstairs, entirely too hot.

Thanksgiving break

Just the way the pictures looked. Absolutely breathtaking! So peaceful and quiet. House was very comfortable but the property was perfect. Fished, crabbed, went on a boat ride and sat by the fire. Look forward to renting it again.

New owners improved so much!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Always a great location! Loved the new paint and other upgrades to the home. Very nice stay! Only complaint would be the water is quite salty out of the tap, maybe a filtration system is needed. The stove could use updating. Other than that, we always enjoy staying here.

This was one of the best trips we ever had.The only thing was the water in the house had that sulfur smell , but we brought water to brush your teeth and to make coffee with. Like I said we had a awesome time and will come back next year.

The only recommendation I can pass on is, the limbs on the back porch side facing that wonderful sunset need to be trimmed so you can have a CLEAR VIEW of the sunset!

Beautiful view

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location is great for my family and there have been upgrades (new flooring, the addition of some dishes) since last year. However the master bedroom could really use a new mattress and the living room furniture has seen better days. There was no DVD player this year. The cleaning was questionable this year. There was a dirty diaper left under a bed, trash left upstairs, a pair of dirty socks left by the bed. It was not typical of Atwood. We have stayed at this property for the last 6 years and love the beautiful views and the seclusion.

Poor Customer Service

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I called several days before hand and was assured that everything was in good working order and the grass had been cut after having had a few issues with our August 2017 stay. Was assured that everything was in tip top shape. Arrived to find bugs all over the home, light bulbs burnt out, dirty air filters, etc. All of that was overlooked. Things happen. However after we Discovered a short in the electrical on our first evening and that the dish washer was full of old water we Called in and a gentleman came out. He Said that he would call an electrician for the short and that he knew the dishwasher didn't work and that he had a new one on the truck. We asked if he would be installing it that day and were informed that he had other houses that he needed to get ready for guests to check into and that he just did not think there would be time. So my thoughts are the guests checking in are a higher priority then the ones already checked in? We were there for four days in a house with an electrical short which is a fire hazard and were there with a child with extreme food allergies with no dishwasher to sanitize and protect against cross contamination. No one ever showed up to fix either issue nor did anyone contact us back from the Atwood Agency. I called their office on Monday to speak with management and was told that they would look into it and call me back the next day. It is now Friday afternoon and I have not been called back. The house its self needs some tlc. We have stayed here for seven years and seen a progressive decline, however we love the location. The customer service from the Atwood agency has also shown a decline. As renters we pay for a clean and well maintained property as well as good customer service, neither of which they provided on this stay. Very disappointed with this stay.
