Breathe, and indulge in life's simple pleasures

The Dunlin welcomes you to experience the outdoor bliss of coastal living in Charleston's Sea Islands

Journey just 20 miles from Charleston to Johns Island and the banks of the Kiawah River – the coastal home of The Dunlin, named after our beautiful local shorebird. We welcome you to breathe in the sea air, surrender to sunny days and starry nights dictated by the simple pleasures of nature's rhythms. Get lost, physically and metaphorically, along our labyrinthine paths through the marshland or in a good book whilst sitting on a wicker rocking chair on your wooden porch, cocktail in hand. This here is a peaceful life, marked by conversation with extended family and friends, farm-fresh Southern cooking, and the whistles of Carolina wren in the distance. Welcome.
