Welcome To Isle of Palms

Looking for Isle of Palms vacation rentals? You’re in the right place.

A bustling area full of friendly residents and endless things to do, the city of Isle of Palms is an Atlantic Ocean barrier island surrounded by a salt marsh, the Intracoastal Waterway, the beach, and the ocean along the southern coast of South Carolina. If this sounds like the perfect place to book isle of palms vacation rentals, you’d be right.

Located just 20 minutes northeast of historic Charleston, Isle of Palms was originally named “Hunting Island” and then “Long Island.” Looking at the geography of the region, it’s easy to see why that latter name was coined. The distance that this city spans is another reason why people are contacting Isle of Palms rental companies: it’s the perfect seaside site for a get-away no matter what time of year you’d like to visit. Finding the perfect Isle of Palms vacation rentals can prove to be an incredibly attractive option for those who want to spend their vacation surrounded by the natural coastal beauty of South Carolina.

The Seewee Indians first inhabited Isle of Palms, greeting the first English settlers to the area. In 1899, the island was purchased by J.S. Lawrence who renamed it its current name due to its cooler climate and picturesque surroundings. After the island was purchased by a developer in the mid-1940s, roads were created and low-cost housing was built. This attracted many World War II veterans returning to the region and that popularity has yet to dissipate, leaving so many looking for Isle of Palms rentals of their own.

The region eventually began attracting wealthy residents who were looking for high-quality isle of palms vacation rentals as well as South Carolina real estate. This interest continues today and only Isle of Palms rental companies can help those looking for real estate secure the home that’s a perfect fit for their needs. The famous and beautiful 1,600-acre Wild Dunes Beach and Racquet Club, located on the city’s north end, was established in 1972.

The seven-mile long, one-mile wide Isle of Palms offers endless recreation opportunities, including bike and hiking paths, sandy beaches, playgrounds, ball fields, tennis, golf and organized sports. The city also has an oceanfront county park in the center of the island, which guests of Isle of Palms vacation rentals are known to enjoy during their stay.

Isle of Palms is a community that many visit — and come to stay. While the island maintains its small-town feel with a grocery store and two shopping centers, those looking nearby for shopping outlets, a hospital and numerous banks will find such amenities in surrounding towns. Across the historic beach inlet is Sullivan’s Island, where local children attend public school. The school system is well-known for its academics.
