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!

This was a pleasant surprise as we visited charleston and found that mount pleasant was the place to be. This hotel is 10 mins from the beach the pool is top notch and the access to the docks is more than cool. My wife and i enjoyed happy hour during the week at all of the restaraunts and bars along the creek, amazing sunset strolls on the docks and plenty of amazing food options nearby! We enjoyed the stay very much. The hotel is minimal having just what you need but the location and night life is more than worth the stay. Would stay again and would recommend it!

As always, I loved my stay at Shem Creek Inn. The only issue I had was being rushed out of my room by the cleaning team before the checkout time. I understand that it was 4th of July weekend and things were busy but that was unnecessary.

Only hotel on Shem Creek. Multiple restaurants/bars within easy walking distance. View from the hotel is outstanding. Shem Creek Park Boardwalk is a must to see....morning and evening. Watch the creek side wake up with boaters both commercial and pleasure. Watching dolphins in the creek as they hunt for food and sight see. Walk to to end of the boardwalk and watch the sunset over the bridge.
