Fantastic location and very close to the restaurants and bars. Beautiful view from the balcony and we enjoyed our morning coffee whilst watching the dolphins swimming in the creek. The staff were great - Doug was so friendly and helpful! We would definitely recommend this place.

Shem Creek Inn was a wonderful place to stay while visiting the Charleston area. I love how it was conveniently located between downtown Charleston and the Sullivans Island beaches. The boardwalk through the marshes was beautiful and allowed for sunrise and sunset walks without getting in the car. The pool deck was so relaxing and I saw dolphins in the waterway. The staff were friendly and the rooms were clean. I would definitely stay again.

The second floor with balcony over looking the creek was great. Lots of activity, boats, kayakers, even dolphins go by. Restaurants and bars next door.

"breakfast" is pretty sad. Plastic wrapped gas station quality snacks and keurig coffee was about it.
