It’s rare to come across a unicorn, but this hotel definitely was one! Everything I wanted to do was either within walking distance or a quick drive away. Shem Creek Park and all of its bridges and walkways was right behind the hotel. An array of delightful, unique restaurants were right across the creek and easily within walking distance. My balcony overlooked the pool, the creek, and the restaurant nightlife. It was so colorful and interesting! I walked right down the dock and boarded a boat for a Charleston Harbor cruise at sunset. My room had every possible amenity I needed. The refrigerator was surprisingly large, too! Patriots Point is right around the corner as is the Pitt Street bridge. Such a neat area. Five gold stars for such a fabulous experience!

Shem Creek Inn provided beautiful views and lots of dining options in walking distance. While many of the restaurants had live music over the weekend, we could not hear anything in our marsh side room. Additionally there was a boardwalk with a beautiful walk over the marshes. It was close enough to Downtown Charleston, but felt like we were staying at the beach due to the wonderful beach smells!

Great local and staff

I love the location, pool, decks and all of the people that work at Shem Creek Inn are very nice and helpful. I suggest adding some splits of Prosecco to the drink cooler.

Great lil place to stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying here this weekend. Great location, near food, shopping and close enough to visit the beach when not sitting at pool overlooking shem creek. Had a creekside room... Comfy beds are a bonus!

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!
