We bought this Airstream in 2022 as an old shell. It was junky and a mess, and not much in it other than old scraps and junk. We renovated it in 2022 and 2023, and turned it into a cozy, midcentury modern style Glamper. We tried to plan for every comfort you could want or need, from wifi and a smart TV, to a cute bathroom, Keurig and an Air Fryer. We hope you love it as much as we do. Please note, it is tight quarters, especially for more than two people and large framed people. For this reason, we only allow two guests. We live on a busy street, but the backyard is peaceful and serene. The airstream is parked next to our creek, where waterfowl abound. Only one vehicle allowed.

Edisto Island Vacation Rental RV is a fully hooked up new model RV with all the conveniences of home. Located in a beautiful shaded natural forest. Your site backs up to the Edisto Beach State Park where there are miles of amazing hiking and biking trails running through the maritime forest, and while on the trails you can visit the State Park's Environmental Learning Center to take part in their incredible interactive exhibits and learn about the natural history of the island and it's sea life. You will definitely want to spend time exploring or just relaxing on the beautiful beaches teaming with seashells. If you have a boat, feel free to bring it with you when you come, we are very close to the Live Oak Landing boat ramp where I took the picture of the sunset. As the day winds down to an end you can relax by a campfire or just head inside and kick back and watch a movie from the library of dvd's that are available. The bed is a queen and the dining table area can turn into a full bed. I look forward to having you here to make Edisto Island your next playground.

A shoeless interior, step inside and awe at the cuteness featuring shiplap, ac/giant tv and pullout chair/bed. As this is a work in progress, the toilet is an approved contracted porta potty and an outdoor shower. Running water is available in the sink inside the camper.
The owner lives on site, along with 4 goats, chickens, ducks, and lots of bees. We are quiet, mindful, and nature-oriented, and appreciate the same.

AMAZING stay on Edisto Island at Ron’s site. The camper had absolutely everything we could ask for, including the shower with ample hot water. This was a major benefit after a long day at Edisto Beach, which was only 5 minutes or less from the site. Ron was responsive and helpful, even supplying a park pass for the nearby Edisto Beach State Park. There is a Food Lion less than 5 minutes from the site, and a fun ice cream shop. We really loved hanging out at the site with our pup, keeping cool using the fans supplied or sitting by the fire pit at night. The RV stayed cool during the day, which we really appreciated for our dog during the late summer heat. The bed was comfortable for two people. It was great having the amenities of the site (flush toilet, potable water, shower, A/C) while enjoying the outdoor beauty that Edisto has to offer. This is a calm town with little nightlife and only a few restaurants, so if you’re looking for relaxation and quality time with friends/family, this is the spot for you!
The site is surrounded by trees and bamboo, and a far ways back from the street, but you are near Ron’s house. Something to note in case you want absolute seclusion, but my family felt comfortable and private the whole time, with Ron helping us only at check in and check out. We will 100% be visiting again, and would love to stay at this site in the future. Seriously the best hip camp experience I have ever had.

Ron was an excellent host. Super helpful any time we needed anything. The RV was in great condition, the AC blows cold, and it’s super convenient to the beach while also being tucked away from the crowds. This place is a gem.

3 nights at Edisto Island Vacation Rental RV
This was our first time at Edisto and this rv was in the perfect location! Bonus points for being dog friendly. Felt very private and we really enjoyed seeing all the birds and frogs.
Really appreciate that Ron left us a state park pass. Beautiful beach that wasn't crowded, even on Saturday.
I've had bad experiences with RV beds, but this one was extremely comfortable. Everything we needed was provided. I was worried about the AC keeping up in July but it did a great job and kept it chilly.
Just a note, if you are taller than 6 ft you won't be able to stand up straight in the shower, but the shower head is detachable so you'll still be abe to shower fine.
Would definitely stay here again!

Edisto was a beautiful place to visit! And this RV was a perfect place to stay. Right at the edge of the State Park, it was private, secluded and had the essential comforts! Ronald has created a nice little nook full of nature!! He even checked on us to make sure we had power when a little storm came through. We recommend this place!!!

Ron's place was wonderful! He really thought of everything to make our stay great- state park pass, firewood, local recommendations, and more. The location was also optimal, bordering the state park and less than 5 minutes to the beach and grocery store. A perfect weekend trip!

Ron's RV was perfect for us, private with all the amenities. Ron provided lots of helpful information about how to enjoy a rainy weekend on the island and offered a State Park pass for easy access. We will definitely be back (hopefully when we can be outside and enjoy the grill and outside dining option).

This was our first stay in a full RV and it was great! Nice to have a full bathroom and kitchen, and Ron included everything we would need, including paper products and soap! He’s a friendly and respectful host and even tolerated our dog’s stranger danger.
The property feels hidden away and is no more than five minutes from anything you might need during your visit. The state parks pass was a great bonus!
This was our seventh visit to Edisto and I hope to use this spot as our home base during future trips! Thank you for a great place to stay!

Stay at Ron's camper for the 3rd time and will stay again next month. This is a sweet, private spot on the island clise to everything. Kid's rode their bikes to the state park and education center. I feel safe here. If you're not used to camper living it may not be for you. We used to pull a camper to the state park campground and loved it. Now I get to show up and Ron has the place all set up for us. We love it.

This place was fantastic! It was super easy to get to, the property was beautiful, and the camper was perfect and spotless. Darren is a wonderful host; he communicated well and made sure I had everything I needed. He even found a car key that I lost on the property and messaged me to let me know he'd set it aside for me. Amazing experience all around!

We stay here every year...it never disappoints! Ron is a thoughtful and kind host...the property is well maintained, beautifully decorated,and is stocked with everything you need to have an excellent experience! Ron has added a new covered swing, which we loved and replaced several items to ensure proper working order (new grill and outdoor table/chairs). I chose this site the first year because it's pet friendly...we have returned each subsequent year because we absolutely love this place and feel so comfortable here with our Siberian Huskies!
