Edi-slow

Edisto, SC has the reputation as being one of the best beaches along our coast. There are no hotels which keeps the tourists down and mostly the beach area is filled with homeowners. Of course many of those homeowners rent their houses so there are opportunities to visit. We were given the opportunity during Christmas break a few years ago and thoroughly enjoyed our time. I can only imagine how much fun this place is in the summer months. I understand that they host one of the best July 4th celebrations anywhere around with the highlight being a golf cart parade.

Our condo was on the golf course but just a few short blocks from the beach. It was so nice and quiet the entire time we were there. Mostly we relaxed at home but also spent time touring around the island. There are some very curious traditions at Edisto, such as this marsh tree that is apparently decorated for every season around the calendar. No one seems to know who the responsible party is tho. Do you?

We were able to take my dog with us this time which doesn’t happen very often. She actually enjoyed the beach since it was cooler than when we visit in the summer.

The Sea Cow Eatery was a fun little spot for lunch. So much fun that I picked up a souvenir. https://www.theseacoweatery.com/

Our condo had bikes in the storage closet so we decided to tool around a bit. Nature at Edisto is so well preserved and I just love that. We actually ran into a few friends and met for happy hour one evening but elected to cook dinner at home and enjoy a cozy winters evening by the fireplace. It was so refreshing to actually get a little downtime after the hustle and bustle of the holiday season.
