Extremely quiet and lazy atmosphere.
In a nutshell
Little but a nice place to visit.
807Wheaton Says: Live Oaks keep their leaves year round so a drive to Edisto Island in the winter is very pleasant. . The sun is usually shining in this area and the Live Oaks make lovely canopys over the roads.
Low Country Drive on the Island
807Wheaton Says: There are lots of old churches and cemeteries on Edisto Island. The Presbyterian Church pictured here was established in the late 1600's. The oldest grave we saw was a burial in the early 1800's.
807Wheaton Says: Highway 17 is the main route that takes you to the cutoffs for Edisto. Once on the road to the island there are acres and acres of low country sights. Boats can come up through the water in the interior of the island. There are several small places to stop for gas and small,...
807Wheaton Says: All along the beach at Edisto are small family cottages. They are not fancy by any means.You get a wonderful feel of yesteryear here. The view is one long sight of beach and palm trees. You won't see one high rise. If you can be satisfied with a few days of real downtime...
807Wheaton Says: Edisto is one of the few places that still has old beach cottages right on the beach itself.There are jettys and pilings along the beach to try to stop the erosion of the dunes. Spending some time here gives you a wonderful oldtime feel. You can't find a high rise or big...
WILDEFLOWER Says: Anywhere you look you'll see the old mans beard hanging from the tree's, better known as southern moss. We enjoyed just driving around and looking for old plantations and museums. We only got lost once. Some of the roads are dirt roads. Something we are not used to traveling...
Not much choice. Either be a...
ronald_ann Says: Not much choice. Either be a member of the Fairfield Resort (RCI), bring camping gear, or rent a house. You can breathe freely, there isn't a skyrise hotel for miles!Must be a member of Fairfield Resorts(RCI) timeshare to stay there so it depends on how much 'chavo' you...
Sunset Grille: Sunset Grille at Edisto Island
807Wheaton Says: The menu at this restaurant offers a lot of seafood. It's one of the few places to eat on Edisto Island. There is very little ambience here. If you get a table by the window you will have a view of the boats coming into the slip area. You have to walk up a long flight of...
For restaurant eats it's slim...
ronald_ann Says: For restaurant eats it's slim pickin's. There is a semi-cushy restaurant off the pier (seafood, of course), a more casual place near the Fairfield resort end, a pizza parlor that serves ice cream and (thank goodness) a grocery store! Charleston, though, is only 45min. away...
Red Lobster has an all you can...
Kallie2199 Says: Red Lobster has an all you can eat seafood buffet all of the time. It is pricy but worth every penny.
My favorite spot in Edisto is...
ronald_ann Says: My favorite spot in Edisto is a great little campfire spot right off the tent. Every night they serve vino and fish. Ok.... there is a local bar but not much else.
Kallie2199 Says: Take whatever you need. Dont over do the luggage. It just makes more work for yourself. Sandles are great for the beach. Well, most people know that already. Loose, comfortable clothing is good also. I would also take a comfortable pair of walking shoes. A must is sunblock...
Daylilyguy Says: Highway 174 is the main road on Edisto Island. About 8 miles before you reach the beach you'll pass the historic Presbyterian Church on Edisto Island. Slow down and you'll spot a sign for Steamboat Landing about 3/4 mile past the church. Turn left and follow the paved road....
ronald_ann Says: Not really 'off the beaten path' but, the southern round of the island is where the Edisto River meets the ocean. Really a gorgeous place to walk around.
Bicycle rides around the island
807Wheaton Says: Many of the roads on the island have a bicycle path so it's a safe place to get your exercise and enjoy the pleasant ambiance of the South.
