Artistry in the Library with David Howard
Inn Library
Stop by the Inn Library and see a display of artist David Howard’s work. David was raised on historic and picturesque Sullivan’s Island, a barrier island near Charleston, South Carolina. Self-taught, David started his photography of the natural world over thirty years ago. His digital development is a traditional approach, consisting mostly of contrast adjustment, dodging and burning where his roots of photography were established long ago in his laundry room. The work speaks for itself and must be seen to be truly appreciated.
Complimentary
Christmas for Canines
Front Desk/Concierge
We believe in spreading joy to all members of your family, including the furry ones. When you check into the Inn this Festive season, your four-legged friends will be greeted with a delightful surprise on behalf of our very own Canine Ambassadors, Cauley & Cooper. We understand that pets are part of the family and we want to ensure they feel just as cherished during this festive season.
