Great family stay in North Charleston

Place was great. Quiet neighborhood except for the occasional commercial airliner or military jets from nearby AFB. Communication with the owner was stellar and there are many instructions throughout the house. Backyard is cozy and perfect for just hanging out but beware for garden spiders/orb weaver/banana spiders all over. No real threats to us. Honestly felt at home.

Diamond in the Rough

If you think you’ve seen cozy, think again. This 3-bedroom cottage near downtown Charleston is a hidden gem in the most unexpected of places. Tucked in a rougher, gritty part of town, this cottage feels like stepping into a warm hug after a day of navigating the urban chaos. The street outside may be bustling with that raw energy only a true city neighborhood can offer—vibrant, loud, and alive—but inside, it’s a whole other world.You’ll walk into the living room and instantly feel the stress of the city melt away. The place is *cozy* in the truest sense of the word. Soft lighting, big plush couches that practically swallow you whole, and a vintage vibe that makes you feel like you’ve discovered a secret sanctuary. Every inch of this cottage is designed for comfort and relaxation, from the rustic charm of the kitchen, complete with open shelving and quirky little touches, to the bedrooms that feel like an oasis in a storm—think thick, cloud-like comforters and beds that’ll make you want to cancel all plans for a nap.Now, let’s talk backyard. In this part of town, you might not expect to find such a tranquil retreat—but that’s what makes this place so special. The backyard is a perfect little urban escape, filled with personality. There’s a fountain that draws you in as soon as the sun starts setting, surrounded by mismatched chairs and fairy lights hanging from the fence like little bursts of hope. It’s the kind of space that makes you want to crack open a cold drink, thro

Very Comfortable Cottage

Cute, comfy, and amazingly well stocked. If you plan on cooking during your stay, youll find all you need in terms of pots, pans, pantry stock and dishware. The beds are comfy, instructions are clear, and the cottage was well cleaned. Both front and backyard are fenced and securely contained our dog. The owner was very responsive. We enjoyed our stay!

We loved the place. The location (neighborhood) looks sketchy but it was actually very quiet. The house was perfect for what we needed. I will say that the AC in both smaller bedrooms was not working very well. It got pretty toasty. But everything else was great.

Good first experience

The house and property were so inviting! The owner was quick to respond to questions and the house was stocked with anything a traveller might need. We were there for a family reunion in town and this property was more than adequate for us. We were there over July 4th and the neighbors set off fireworks in the street until after midnight but that would have happened at home as well, so not a big deal. Overall, as a first experience with VRBO it was very good

Charming house

I was visiting my son for the holidays and needed a place to stay. This house was perfect. Loved walking around the yard looking at the plants or sitting outside on the covered patio. The house was decorated for Christmas. It was well-stocked for me to cook meals. The host communicates quickly. There is a guest book with recommendations. The host even offered a bottle of wine! Great host. Darling place. I enjoyed my stay.

Amenities galore & great host!

Awesome place! House is cute & has everything you need & then some. Coming in late to snacks on the table, fruit in the fridge and a bottle of wine was so refreshing. Jim also has a small medicine cabinet stocked with drugstore items to use at our disposal & while I didn’t use any of this, the gesture was such a nice touch. The backyard is even better than the pictures! We enjoyed having lunch on the back table, and I snagged a cherry tomato from the garden that was so fresh and delicious. My two dogs also enjoyed the fenced in yard! Jim has a list of suggestions of places to go, places to eat, etc but my favorite was at the end for chain restaurants: “chain restaurants: I don’t recommend any, but if you want to go to one, google what’s around”. I agree, Jim!! :p The neighborhood was quiet & safe. I would definitely stay here again!

Disappointing Vacation

The Charleston rental was located in a less than favorable neighborhood. However it was within 15 - 20 minutes of events, shopping and restaurants. The host, Jim, was super nice, helpful and very hospitable. We did see quite a few roaches in the house and our dog had an allergic reaction to a flea infestation in the yard, which ended up costing us over $300. We had to take her to the emergency vet clinic. I would not stay in this rental again b/c of the team to our fur baby. The host was the bestest.

Stay away

First of all, we arrived at 330pm. I told our host, Jim, that we may not arrive until after 5 because we were driving over 600 miles and traffic is unpredictable. The listing said check in is after 3pm. Jim said he would send me the check in info when the cleaning service finished. I told him we arrived and he asked if there were any cars there. There weren't so he said I could use the same code to open the door as the previous renter. Once in, we noticed a distinct musty smell. There was a space on the top and bottom of the front Storm door. The furniture and carpet were noticably stained. The popcorn ceiling was pealing and dropped to the floor in the hallway. The master bedroom smelled like urine so we figured there were 2 others so we didn't use it. I think the bedspread was the smell origin but didn't appear to be soiled. The kitchen stove was dirty and rusty on the side and roaches were seen scurrying from underneath. The ice trays and ice bin in the refrigerator smelled strongly like old stagnant water. I washed them with soap but it didn't help So we bought our own ice. The kitchen chairs were stained and the table was dirty and sticky. Jim put out an array of complimentary snacks on the table for us. There were also complimentary bottles of wine. During the 2nd night there, we noticed a roach in our bed. We switched to the 3rd bedroom which only has a single bed so my wife slept on the couch after she covered it with clean sheets and towels. No more space to write
