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.

Located 30 minutes from downtown Charleston, near Kiawah and Johns Island, Bee Haven is 3 Wadmalaw acres. An adorable tiny camper sleeps one person (no pets) with parking right there.
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.
Wadmalaw is home to American Classic Tea Gardens, Deepwater Vinyards, Cherry Point with summer fresh shrimp off the boat, Kiawah and Seabrook 12 miles away and downtown Charleston 20-40 minutes.

This memorable place is anything but ordinary. Located on private property tucked away off Hwy 78 East. 20 minutes from Charleston International Airport and 7 minutes from downtown Summerville. It has a queen-sized bed, and the dining table converts to a full-sized bed. You'll have access to a comfortable firepit and seating area and a barbecue grill if you want to grill out.
Guest access
Once you enter the property, drive around to the back of the main house where the camper sits.

3 nights at Edisto Island Vacation Rental RV
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!

5 nights at Edisto Island Vacation Rental RV
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!

Weekend Trip to Edisto Island Vacation Rental RV
Ron was an excellent host, greeting us at the campsite when we arrived! He even had firewood chopped up and everything. Ron helped us find an easy bike rental so we could explore the island on bike. Botany Bay is a close car ride away and beautiful at sunrise, as is sunset at the pier on state park land. Everything we were looking for in a summer camping trip: seclusion, great fire pit, and a necessity for June/July in SC: air conditioning. Such a good time! Thanks Ron!

My husband and spent one night at Darren’s place on our way to Florida, and really loved it! Darren is an excellent communicator and made us feel so welcome. The camper is spotless and comfortable, and we slept well on the comfy bed. The firepit area, deck and chairs, and tall, beautiful trees surrounding the property gave it a peaceful and relaxing feel. Highly recommend!

This was our 2nd stay with Ron. It's a great choice for us. We can bring our 2 labs...who love the beach...and it's just a 5 minute drive to the state park beach. Ron provides a parking pass that saves us $16 a day. The camper is clean and supplies all bedding and kitchen items plus bath towels and toiletries...just bring your toothbrush and settle in. We'll be back!

Ron was a great host. He made sure we had plenty of fire wood every day and provided a large spot to walk our two dogs. The location was super close to everything Edisto had to offer. Ron's lot was super private and surrounded by the state park. Edisto was a super cute town with a very clean beach & no crowds. The restaurants around were all great too. We had a great time!

National Park Service knows history
Great tour- could easily have spent more time there. Such historical significance and accurately and thoughtfully represented. Be on the first boat to get to help raise the flag above the fort!
