Awesome stay and location

We Truly enjoyed our stay in Charleston and mostly because of how great this place was. The location was perfect. It was clean and had everything we needed for the week. We only had a couple issues while we were there, and management was responsive. The ceiling fan stopped working in the back bedroom and one of the shower drains wasn't working correctly. Other than that, it was very convenient to everything and worked out great for our crew. We would definitely stay again if in Charleston.

Great place!

This property was perfect for what we were looking for. House was clean, everyone had a bed and bath. Only downside was the noise below us. They brought a dog and it was barking most of the evening. I contacted our host and it resolved the problem. I definitely recommend this prooerty.

Wonderful - well oiled machine!

We had a fantastic stay at this house in Charleston! The location was perfect—just a short walk to the main shopping street and so central to everything we wanted to do. The hosts were incredibly responsive and communicative; I messaged them a couple of times throughout the day, and they always replied right away.The house itself was super clean and well-stocked with plenty of towels and extra amenities for all of our guests. The number of bathrooms compared to bedrooms was ideal, which made everything really convenient for our group. And the pool area was such a fun bonus—we spent a lot of time enjoying it!Honestly, I couldn’t leave a better review if I tried. Would absolutely stay here again!

Girls Trip

Perfectly located to be able to walk to coffee shops and bites while still being a tad from the nosie of nightlife. I love reading reviews that are honest when youre trying to plan a trip. Especially if youre like me and want to research everything beforehand. The listing was pretty accurate. Each bedroom had a bathroom attached ( one bedroom has bathroom directly outside of room.) The only one thing Id like to say that if youre not a great sleeper or like to day nap bring a noise machine. The people below us accidentally set off some alarm twice and by the pool cn get noisy for 2 back bedrooms as everyone was having a grear time at the pool. There were 2 noise machines and ear plugs so i just bought one from Amazon for me and another girl while we were there and they got delivered that day. Also they said there was an iron i couldnt find one so also bought a steamer for the trip and left it there for the next person. A girls trip without one is hard. Not big problems at all clearly. I would definitely love to cone back again! Loved the porch for bedore dinner cocktails.

We didn’t use the pool but other guests did and really enjoyed it even in December. Dog park was pooch perfect for our pups. The kitchen was stocked with basic needs. The only thing missing were wine glasses. Highly recommend this property and management company.

Excellent value four bedroom property a short distance from the Historic District

We were very pleased with this property. It is the second floor of a two-story house, with an identical second unit on the first floor. The four bedroom, 4.5 bath layout gives two couples plenty of room for privacy purposes, but the space could easily accommodate ten (since there are two pullout couches and a small day bed in the master bedroom). The bathrooms were a bit small, but perfectly adequate. The beds were all kings and were firm and comfortable with plenty of pillows. We loved having a kitchen that was well equipped, so that we could eat breakfast and cook two dinners during our three-night stay. A few folks have commented that they missed having a dining room table, but the four of us were fine eating at the counter bar. The stainless steel kitchen appliances are all fairly new, and we appreciated having a gas stove. The washer/dryer units in the closet off the kitchen are a tad noisy, but since we were just using them to throw in a load of white towels during our move out, we didn't mind. We especially loved the comfortable porch, with the second floor allowing us more privacy than the similar porch on the first floor. The unit was very clean and we thought it provided excellent value for the money, given its proximity to the Historic District. There was also a JuiceBox charger for our EV, so if you are driving an EV, make sure to specify that in your booking so that they can assign that parking space to you. We had neighbors who got a little rowdy on our third night, but that's not something that the property manager can control. All in all, this was a great location for an extremely pleasant stay. We would definitely rent this property again!

Charming and Great Location

The location of this property was perfect for us, close enough to King St. but yet far enough away to be in a quiet zone. Our stay was on the 2nd floor and the front porch was awesome and a great place to hang out. Would definitely recommend this property!

Great place, the listing is incorrect.

The place was clean and beautiful and in a great location. Just a warning to groups coming, they list this place as a six-bedroom private house. This house has four bedrooms and a small side room with a pull-out sofa that is super tight. The upstairs is private but the house also has a downstairs that is also a rental. We liked our neighbors, so luckily that worked out for our group. The pool is listed as private and it is really shared between four different Vrbo properties. It also says that it has dining for eight people, it is a counter facing the kitchen with chairs, there is not a dining table. Really the house is great, I just think the description needs to be correct. We would have gotten a larger place if we had known.

Completely renovated, with pool

Our family of 5 stayed in the upstairs unit. It was perfect! Lots of amenities and everyone had their own room and bathroom. The pool was a wonderful feature as we could go for a swim to cool off after a day downtown. The neighborhood was a bit further away from downtown then I expected but we had a car and drove with no problem finding parking. It was nice not to have to run out and get supplies for the washer or dishwasher and paper products as they supplied enough for our 4 day stay. I would rent this unit again!

Rented for 4 days. House is great. Note: It is actually a 4 bedroom with additional pull out couch. 4 1/2 bath. It was great for our group of 5. Love the pool❤️ Second story porch is divine to watch happenings up and done the street but lots of steps to climb with heavy luggage can be a challenge (would not recommend for elderly or someone with knee or other issues). Everything was very clean, beds comfortable.
