2026 Beach Update: The City of Isle of Palms is carrying out a beach renourishment project, expected to move along the beach in sections between summer and fall 2026. Because crews work steadily down the shoreline, any impact to a specific area is temporary, and the beach stays open with access outside active work zones. A final schedule hasn't been released yet — we're tracking updates and are happy to provide guidance based on your travel dates. Just reach out, or visit our beach project page on our website for the latest.

Summer House 505 is a renovated two-bedroom, two-bathroom penthouse condo in the Summer House community at Wild Dunes — and the views are the headline. Breathtaking oceanfront views unfold from the living room, the master bedroom, and the private deck, so whether you're sipping coffee, reading on the couch, or waking up to the sunrise, the Atlantic is always in frame.

Inside, gleaming hardwood floors, stylish décor, and cozy furnishings make for a polished, comfortable beach base just minutes from Charleston's charm. Summer House guests have access to the Summer House oceanfront pool, plus the rest of Wild Dunes — golf, spa, restaurants, and miles of walking and biking paths.

📌 Things to Note

🏊 Pool Access
Summer House 505 guests have exclusive access to the Summer House oceanfront pool. Please note that the pools at the Boardwalk Inn, Sweetgrass Inn, and Sweetgrass Fitness Center are reserved for resort hotel guests only and are not available to vacation rental guests. Wild Dunes does not have a central pool open to all visitors — pool access is specific to your community.

🏋️ Fitness
The fitness center at Wild Dunes is reserved for resort hotel guests only. We recommend the Isle of Palms Recreation Center as a fantastic alternative — featuring a cardio room, fitness classes, and brand new courts just a quick drive down Palm Blvd.

Pay-to-play at the Wild Dunes Tennis Center. Free courts also at the Isle of Palms Recreation Center.

⛳ Golf
Pay-to-play on the Wild Dunes Links and Harbor Courses — two championship layouts designed by Tom Fazio.
