Wadmalaw Island Home on Deep Water with Floating Dock

5BD/4.5BA Home on Deep Water with Floating Dock

This is what it means to get away from it all. Unplug, unwind and destress all while enjoying modern comforts and the pristine landscapes of Wadmalaw Island.

Featuring 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms within its three heart-pine floors, this grand country home is nestled among the oaks with tidal creek views. Set on deep water, you will find a spacious dock with the Sea Swallow moored alongside room to tie on the other 20’ side.

Within its walls, there is plenty of room for the whole family or a whole gaggle of your best pals with beds - 1 king, 4 queens, 3 twins and 1 pull-out sofa - to comfortably sleep up to 13 guests. An open-concept home designed to be shared, the bedrooms are well separated with each having its own bath.

Originally built in 1970, our family has proudly owned this Rockville property since 1986. A true gathering home, we’ve enjoyed countless family reunions, celebrations and getaways hallmarked by water skiing, crabbing, fishing, swimming, kayaking and gazebo jumps (rights of passage…) all off her deep water dock. It is our joy to share this pristine, peaceful escape with you and yours.

Enjoy this idyllic river retreat that includes three kayaks available for adventuring or look to Bohicket Marina around the corner for sunset cruises, nature tours, rentals and more.

House is located on Adam’s Creek within the town of Rockville, SC. Rockville is located on Wadmalaw Island near Seabrook and Kiawah Islands. It is a rural island with no commercial development. Shrimp docks and a tiny grocery sell delicious sandwiches, flowers, fresh vegetables and tomato pies. The town of Rockville is a charming historic village with enchanting walks close to our house.
During your stay at this holiday home, you'll be close to Bohicket Marina. A kitchen and 4.5 bathrooms are available in the holiday home.
  • Air-conditioned home with kitchen, washing machine and 4.5 bathrooms
  • 10.3 miles (16.6 km) from Irvin House Vineyards and 10.7 miles (17.2 km) from Deep Water Vineyard
Wadmalaw Island Home on Deep Water with Floating Dock offers its guests barbecue grills and a garden. The front desk is open around the clock.

Great family getaway
We had four generations of family stay for a week’s relaxing vacation. It is so quiet and peaceful here, and the kitchen is extraordinarily well equipped for a huge crowd. Our younger set enjoyed the dock and the kayaks, and walking around Rockville was just lovely. There are plenty of bedrooms and private spaces for all ages.

Second time renting this property
Very nice property. Secluded location in Rockville. Unmatched sunset views. Great screened porch. Enjoyed the gazebo at sunset. Cleanliness rating based on the condition of the outside areas. Pretty junky in places. Did not affect the enjoyment of our stay. Would definitely rent again.

Charming, well appointed home on deep water creek
My husband and two grandchildren, ages 8 and 5 had SO much fun in this home! The house is older, yet charming, well furnished, very clean, organized and well equipped with everything needed. We fished, crabbed, threw cast nets, swam and took our boat out on the pristine creek. The nearby islands were a short boat ride away. It was so peaceful, the view was absolutely gorgeous. Having raised our family enjoying all the low country waters have to offer, we were able to share it with our grandchildren. It far exceeded our expectations, we would love to rent this home again. The host was easily reached and entry was no problem.

Beautiful Setting
We enjoyed the setting for our son’s wedding. The cottage is large and has such a nice atmosphere. Lots of space to spread out and the waterfront is gorgeous. Sunsets were outstanding. The kitchen was well equipped, including an extra refrigerator and a separate large freezer. The age of the building shows and can either add to its charm or distract depending on your expectations. It could be cleaner based on the fees that are charged but it was sufficient for us.

We had a wonderful time. It’s a huge house suitable for a big family. The kitchen is well supplied. The toys and games are appreciated. Kayaks are available too. Beautiful sunset. Bottom line: highly recommended.

A Special Spot
The perfect spot for a laid back getaway where friends and family can relax under the beautiful oaks and admire the unobstructed river view. A slice of heaven in the Lowcountry.

Great waterfront house!
We had a great week with 13 people from 4 families gathering together from various parts of the country. We loved hanging out at the gazebo on the dock - the sea breeze made it comfortable at almost all hours of the day! Swimming at high tide was great (be careful of the current!). We paddleboarded and kayaked around the river almost every day. Fishing was great - we caught a 2 foot shark one day! Charleston is a quick 40 minute drive. The house was very comfortable. It is showing its age a bit, but overall a great place. Beds were comfortable - and there was plenty of space for 13 of us to spread out. The kitchen was well stocked. The yard and porch were great! We had a great stay and would come back in a heartbeat!

Needs lots of attention but great house
If the owners get the cleaning and repair needs taken care of, this will be a fantastic rental. It's a beautiful setting with awesome sunsets, great trees, a large, lovely porch, and great living spaces. Manager is very attentive.

Beautiful relaxing vacation
We had a great stay with family, including two small children. Everyone loved the dock and the river. Plenty of space for family group of 9. The property is showing a few signs of aging but no serious problems with the facilities. Easy communication with the property manager. A bit of a drive if you are heading to the beach. Unfortunate that the normal boat rental facility had all of its boats under repair. I would highly recommend as a location to relax, fish, and boat on the river. Not hard to drive into Charleston.

Unique & lovely property near historic small village. We enjoyed the beautiful yard, dock and especially the HUGE screened in porch, as well as walks in the gorgeous surroundings. Lots of games, yard games, though could have been more use ready ( esp kayaks). Would gladly come again.

Southern Charm
Everything you would want off the beaten deep water path. Magnificent oaks. Rented a boat for the week from Bohicket marina and kept at the dock. Daily oyster roast and shrimp boil with all necessary supplies available including the shucking table. Great for an extended family trip

Extraordinary property
We had the most amazing thanksgiving at this house. There was plenty of room for the 8 of us and our dog. The kitchen is huge and well stocked for a family that loves to cook. And the screened in porch was the perfect gathering place for meals and socializing in the time of COVID. The property is gorgeous and sunrise and sunset on Bohicket Creek was a treat every day. We will definitely rent this property again for future gatherings!

Wonderful family home
We enjoyed our stay at this lovely home and were very pleased with the layout. The pier was very nice and we loved being outdoors. The only recommendation I would have is to put a lock on the doors adjoining the bedrooms downstairs.

great getaway for watersport fans
beautiful home on quiet creek. when you get tired of kayaking, fishing, shrimping, crabbing or boating, turn to bocce, table tennis or horseshoes to work up an appetite for a meal prepared in the gourmet kitchen. turning the pages of a good book on the spacious (understatement) screened in porch also qualifies as vacation-worthy 'work' to earn your spot at the dinner table. wish we could have stayed longer!

Great location for a family get together.
Even on the hot summer days of July, it was always pleasant outside because of the shade of the huge Oak trees, the coastal breezes, and the screened balcony and the open porch, and the gazebo and dock on Adams Creek. A really unique setting for a laid back low country experience. Don't miss a late night walk out to the dock to see stars you may never have seen before.

Great Escape!
We have stayed at this house every Memorial Day weekend for the last 9 years. We've enjoyed the charm and the space with family and kids as they've grown up. The dock is great, and we've spent countless hours swimming and crabbing. It can easily sleep 3 couples plus kids (you can definitely have 4 couples or more with no kids!). We've always enjoyed the large open living spaces and many meals we've cooked in this house. The sun set is one of the best. Long story short, this is the kind of place where you can wash away a bit of the modern rat race and enjoy the water, country living, and have a good time!

Lovely spot, lifelong memories!
Thank you so much! We loved our time at this special spot.... Some of our favorite moments- the sunsets, dolphins swimming, herons in the marsh, paddle boarding, the dock, catching crabs, cooking together, screened porch suppers. Jamie is very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. Thank you again- we will be back!
