Isle of Palms Cart Rentals
(NOT IN WILD DUNES)

We have electric but RENT GAS VERSUS ELECTRIC if available! Why? You’re on vacation so why worry about whether or not the outlet works or the cart is charging or how far you go on a charge. Our gas LSVs are custom-made from Yamaha QuietTech carts. They are not loud and go over a hundred miles before you would need fuel! You literally could go all week without needing to get gas and best of all we don’t require you to refill it at the end of the rental!

Known for its nesting sea turtles and rich history, the Isle of Palms is a peaceful place to vacation, fish, and explore South Carolina’s Lowcountry. See the island like never before with Low Speed Vehicle and golf cart rentals so you can see for yourself what’s so special about this corner of the Atlantic on your next vacation.

Isle of Palms has tons of activities for your family to enjoy—and getting around will be a breeze with one of our LSVs DAY OR NIGHT unlike a normal golf cart rental!
