House was very clean. Had all the amenities that I needed - except a baking sheet! Nice towels, linens. Quiet neighborhood. Older neighborhood, but felt very safe. Under two miles to the downtown Charleston area - I walked it. Very doable. My only recommendation would be to add a deadbolt lock to the kitchen door that opens to the outside. Would just feel a little more secure - or a latch on the inside maybe.Bathroom is downstairs, so you have to navigate stairs in the middle of the night, if you’re one of those people and that’s a concern for you.Parking was great - right behind the cottage. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. Communication with owner was great. Responded very quickly to all questions.

Comftorble

The place was clean and comfortable. However, the price I paid was the same as a 2 bedroom, ocean front condo on Isle of Palms the last time we were here. I will stay there if and when I come back. Love Charleston!!!

Very Great Time

Had a blast staying over the 4th of July at this place. It was hot which was to be expected, but the lower floors were very cool during the day and at night. Thank you!

Location was perfect!

Location was perfect, super walkable. Fuel Cantina and Holey City Bagels were conveniently close-by. Food was great everywhere we visited. Downtown Charleston including all attractions were within walking distance for us (could be a bit long for others who aren’t walkers)…it was a beautiful, pleasant walk to and from. Charleston City Market, The Lost History of Black Charleston walking tour led by historian and educator Damon Fordham, and Folly Beach were among my favorite experiences. My friend enjoyed the wine complimentary of the Vrbo, which was a nice way to cap off our wonderful stay in Charleston. We both thoroughly enjoyed our visit and look forward to returning. Oh and the mattress was super comfortable. We slept well.

Cute, cozy cottage

This property is a cute, cozy cottage in a walkable neighborhood with a few breakfast options, restaurants/bars, and shops on King Street. Off-street parking was a great bonus! For a shorter stay, the cottage was just what we needed and had lots of charm. The bed was so comfortable! The layout was fine for us; however, some may not like that the bathroom is so separate from the bedroom (downstairs then up two steps and through the kitchen) for bathroom trips in the middle of the night. Check-in and check-out were easy with great communication from owners.

Cute cottage

Be careful of the kitchen door it opens by itself. Needs a deadbolt. Also there is no bathroom upstairs and no way to turn the stairway light off or on from upstairs. Otherwise very clean.

We loved the location as we were within walking distance of much of what we had planned throughout downtown. The neighborhood is quiet and the apartment itself is cozy while offering plenty of space for two people to lounge in comfortably. As other reviews noted, the loft area does get warmer than the rest of the house, but the box fan provided made the nights comfortable for sleeping.

A cute little place, big enough for 2, close enough to walk or ride a bicycle to see the sights but far enough away to avoid the noise and traffic. Would definitely stay here again.

Property was as advertised. Of note, the remote for the TV is missing. But we were too busy to spend time watching anything. The kitchen was adequately supplied, with the one exception that there were no garbage bags. Overall it is a lovely property, typical of Charleston which has aged well. I would recommend this property to a couple who do not intend to hang out at the house but use it as a base to explore all the area has to offer.
