Shem Creek Inn

I've stayed at multiple hotels in the Mt Pleasant area but Shem Creek Inn is my absolute favorite and always my first choice when booking. It's not the newest or fanciest hotel but the location, views and atmosphere can't be beat. It's the only hotel directly on the water. You can often see dolphins playing from your balcony (creek view) and you're within walking distance to any of the restaurants on the creek. The staff have always been nice and the rooms have always been clean. Side note: Wake up before sunrise & walk out on the boardwalk to see the sun come up over the creek and marsh. Stunning!

We chose this hotel mainly for its location directly on Shem Creek (I'm a nature lover) but it's also a very short drive to the attractions at Patriot's Point. The hotel is sandwiched between Shem Creek and the saltmarsh in Shem Creek Park. We reserved a marsh view room, which meant that we had perfect views of sunsets over the marsh and the Ravenel bridge lit up at night. There is a boardwalk which runs along the creek, with 5 or 6 restaurants within walking distance facing the creek. Our room was a nice size and had low-key nautical decor, nothing overdone or tacky. The premises were clean and quiet (of course, we were there during the off-season). The hotel offers free wifi, free parking (with a hang tag), and a "grab-and-go" breakfast selection. The breakfast was adequate but nothi

If I could give 10 stars I would. From the time we walked in and was greeted I knew I was going to love this place. The front desk gentleman made sure my granddaughter had little prizes to enjoy during our stay. Our room was so clean and the bed was very comfortable. We will definitely make this our forever place to stay when we visit. Can't wait to visit again very soon. Highly recommend.

I stayed 2 nights at this property. I could not be happier with my stay. I absolutely love the location, and the property. The proximity to downtown is great. The staff is top notch, especially Doug!!!! The rooms are clean and nice, beds are comfortable and bathroom is great sized. The atmosphere is chill and the bar downstairs is great. It is a great value for your money, and is very quiet. The only complaint I have is the breakfast is VERY lacking.

Positive: The location. Good food and drinks just a short walk away. Negative: ""
