Overview & Lifestyle

Marsh Harbor is one of Inner Mount Pleasant's most distinctive addresses, a gated community built around what was formerly known as the Toler's Cove neighborhood, just before the bridge to Sullivan's Island. The setting is the whole point: homes and townhouse-style condos here look out over the Marsh Harbor Lagoon, which connects to Toler's Cove and, from there, to the open water beyond. Living within a mile of the Atlantic Ocean, residents get a genuinely coastal lifestyle without leaving the mainland.

This is a community built for people who take boating and waterfront living seriously. A full-service private marina anchors the neighborhood, giving owners direct water access for sail, motor, or kayak, while the gated entry adds privacy and security that's harder to find elsewhere in Mount Pleasant. Between the marsh views, harbor views, and proximity to some of the Lowcountry's best beaches, Marsh Harbor tends to draw buyers looking for a true waterfront lifestyle rather than simply a house near the water.
