Music is also an added pleasure around the pool area with outdoor sound system. The garden shower (and only shower) is just outside the cottage doors, completely private and unique as you can see in the photos. Our guests have a private entrance to the cottage on the back of the property. There is a cozy porch with Adirondack chairs for relaxing. Bicycles, Beach chairs, surfboard, and cooler are provided for your beach fun.

Short 10 minute drive to either Folly Beach or to downtown historic Charleston. We have many guests celebrate honeymoons, weddings, anniversaries, graduations, and other Charleston events throughout the year. A long list of things to do as well as favorite restaurants are provided by past guests as well as family and friends.

Fantastic cottage experience
A fantastic cottage just off the busy, beaten path. Less than 10 minutes from the beach and the calm that the distance provides is well worth it!

Perfect location for the Charleston experience!
We loved our stay at Kokomo for our 5 year wedding anniversary! Being 15 minutes away from historic downtown Charleston and under 15 minutes from Folly Beach made it the perfect combination for a memorable stay! The cottage was exactly as advertised and the hosts were always prompt on responding to any inquiries we had. We would highly recommend for anyone looking for a Charleston getaway!!

Unique property in a location central to Downtown Charleston and Folly Beach. The hosts were gracious, and the property was one of a kind. We felt as if we were in the Caribbean. The outdoor shower was really cool, too. We had everything we needed for a great stay!

Girls trip
My mother and I went to Kokomo for a girls week. I wanted her to experience my favorite city, Charleston. We also got some beach time at Folly beach. It was great. The accommodations were great and the host were very welcoming.

Slice of Relaxing Paradise!
We absolutely loved our 5-night stay at Kokomo Cottage. It was quiet, peaceful and exactly what we needed after a hectic tax season. Rather heading to Folley Beach, or downtown Charleston for a day of shopping, sightseeing or an incredible dinner, the Cottage is centrally located to everything we wanted to do. Owners ensure your privacy and were very helpful, as needed! We loved our vacation and didn't want to leave! Thanks Ken and Christine!!!

We stayed at Little Kokomo for our wedding weekend and loved every minute. Ken was a gracious host and we had everything we needed from the minute we arrived. Quiet neighborhood, great amenities and perfectly situated 15 mins from Folly Beach and Downtown Chas. We can’t wait to come back!

It was cute and clean. The outdoor Shower was fun. The hosts were great. It was too cold to use the pool but we were gone everyday anyway. We did miss having a kitchen sink.

Cute, quiet cottage
Cute place in a backyard in a quiet neighborhood on James island. Nice outdoor space for reading and relaxing. Only a twenty minute drive to downtown Charleston. The only only thing we missed was a stove where we could cook meals but with so many great places to eat out, we didn't miss it that much!

Small but quaint.
Property was a little smaller than we anticipated. But was fine for the length of stay. Easy to get into Charleston or to the beach.

Amazing Getaway
Best time!! Our mother/daughter “girls getaway” was so very special at Ken & Christine’s little Kokomo Cottage. This little slice of heaven is perfection and is situated between Folly Beach and Charleston. Thank you for making our stay so informative and memorable. The outdoor shower was wonderful and spacious!! We truly loved the location of the cottage, the amenities waiting for us, and the friendly hospitality.

The beautiful bungalow
We loved Ken and Christine. They’re so sweet and chill. They had all the beach stuff you could need !! It’s a little pricey for the amenities you’re getting though. It is indeed a shared pool. Not private. The bed was not as comfortable as I thought it would be. Overall we’re super chill about where we stay. Just a few things to consider.
