We had such a blast staying at the Shem Creek Inn!!! The room was perfect, the view was amazing, the neighborhood was beautiful, the pool was super fun, and the neighboring restaurants were all wonderful! We stay in Charleston several times per year, and this will certainly be our new go-to spot!!! Thank you for everything!

Probably my most favorite stay ever! We went to eat at Water’s Edge while visiting Charlestown and saw Shem Creek Inn and had to come back and stay there. Didn’t disappoint! Doug checked us in and he might’ve been the best part of the Inn but it was all so great, even the grab and go breakfast. No soggy, rubbery eggs, just all great breakfast options! Thank you and we’ll be back!!

We will definitely be back again!

We had a wonderful time during our quick trip and truly enjoyed our stay. Check-in was smooth, and we were pleasantly surprised to receive two free drink vouchers, which could be used for water, beer, or even wine! The lobby was tastefully decorated, and we appreciated the binders with local restaurant menus, which made choosing our lunch spot much easier. We also enjoyed spending time by the pool, and the location couldn’t have been better. When we arrived in our room, we were pleased to find very clean beds with soft linens and wonderfully comfortable pillows. We slept great that night! In terms of cleanliness, it was about what you’d expect from a hotel. The beds were spotless, but the floor felt a bit sticky to me, so I just kept my socks or shoes on when walking around. Overall, we would gladly return. The hotel is an excellent value for a waterfront location, pool access, and proximity to restaurants. We really loved the area, and it made for a great stay.

This was a pleasant surprise as we visited charleston and found that mount pleasant was the place to be. This hotel is 10 mins from the beach the pool is top notch and the access to the docks is more than cool. My wife and i enjoyed happy hour during the week at all of the restaraunts and bars along the creek, amazing sunset strolls on the docks and plenty of amazing food options nearby! We enjoyed the stay very much. The hotel is minimal having just what you need but the location and night life is more than worth the stay. Would stay again and would recommend it!

We loved our stay at the Shem Creek Inn! The location was amazing and we could have happily sat on our balcony all day watching pelicans and dolphins swim up and down the creek! Free parking was a perk, but the staff were outstanding! Everyone was friendly and helpful! We'll be back!
