King’s Krest is a home layered with generations of family memories, where history is thoughtfully preserved and lovingly displayed. Throughout the home, you’ll find authentic touches from the past—vintage water skis, well-worn fishnets, and delicate pencil sketches—each telling a quiet story of coastal life lived fully.
On the water side of the property stands a magnificent oak tree, estimated to be 150–200 years old, a living landmark that predates the home itself and continues to watch over the inlet.
In the dining room, Mama Kate’s writing desk remains a treasured centerpiece. It once faced south in the family room, overlooking the sitting porch, and today stands as a reminder of slower mornings and handwritten correspondence. The small bell resting on the fireplace was used by Viola, the family cook, to call the Kings to breakfast. Viola faithfully walked each day from her home near Brookgreen Gardens and remained with the family well into the early 1980s—a testament to the deep relationships formed within these walls.
Much of the dining room furnishings—including the table, buffet, and two green chairs—date back to the first generation of the King family. The table is thoughtfully set with Mama Kate’s everyday China from the 1940s, offering guests a tangible connection to the home’s past.
Every antique and heirloom at King’s Krest has been intentionally preserved, carefully maintained, and professionally cleaned, allowing guests to experience the warmth and authenticity of a historic family home—one that feels welcoming, cared for, and rich with character.
Disclaimer: There's an additional smaller home located before the main house. The smaller home is occupied full time. They use the same drive way, but there's still plenty of parking.
