My son and I had a great stay! It is perfectly located in close proximity to downtown Charleston! We were able to walk to a nearby grocery store as well as an excellent local restaurant for a delicious dinner! The house was so clean and nicely decorated! The bed was super comfortable too! A definite plus! Our family will definitely stay here again!

Very Cozy and Clean

We stopped for two nights in Charleston and booked this cute cottage. The owner, Sarah was extremely helpful before check-in and during our stay. A very nice extra were farm fresh eggs available for our enjoyment. They were delicious! The proximity to Charleston city center was close, but not within walking distance. The property is on a busy road. If mild road noise doesn't bother you then you wouldn't notice.

Charleston Getaway

My wife and I enjoyed our stay. This property was just as described in the listing. The location was perfect for those who don’t want to stay in the city itself. The rental was clean, nicely appointed, and some fun treats and surprises were left for us to enjoy...even some fresh eggs from the property hens. The rental was near restaurants, excursions, and just a short drive to the city. We enjoyed a day at The Magnolia Plantation, a boat ride over to Fort Sumter(I got to help raise the flag for the day), City Market, two separate carriage rides(historical and ghost), and enjoyed many great meals. The hosts were very nice and easily contacted if needed. You won't be disappointed with this great rental.

Fantastic host and great location!

We had a great experience staying here. Sarah is a host who will go above and beyond to help - and she was always quick to respond. The location was perfect! Most activities were 10-15 min away. We stayed here with our 4 year old, and we had plenty of space. Access to the neat backyard was also very much appreciated. Would highly recommend staying here!

Perfect stay!

Sara‘s house was meticulously clean, very conveniently located (10 minutes to the beach, 10 minutes to downtown, restaurants within walking distance), the “busy “road was never an issue, it was dead quiet at night. We had a great time in Charleston, and at Folly Beach, and will definitely be back!
