Your perfect Lowcountry home base for couples, families, or work-from-home travelers seeking to explore the best of the Lowcountry.

Step inside to a stylish living area, where a comfortable gray sofa and modern coastal decor invite you to unwind. After a day of exploring, relax on your private patio with a freshly brewed Nespresso coffee or a cup of Charleston Tea Plantation tea.

Inside, you'll find everything you need for a comfortable and entertaining stay:

Living Area: A 55” 4K Smart TV with Roku and Chromecast, perfect for streaming your favorite shows on your personal accounts.

For Fun & Games: A Nintendo Switch with Mario Kart, Smash Brothers, and more, plus classic board games like Battleship, Sorry, and Monopoly for a fun game night.

The cottage was in a safe, pleasant community with its on private gravel dive. The cottage was spacious and offered a large cooking area with a dining area and comfortable living room. We found the cottage a great place to work out of and to sleep and relax. The king size bed was comfortable. The owner checked in with us with directions for entry and was open to communication regarding any of our needs. We highly recommend this rental.

The home is as described on the site. We enjoyed our stay. Overall pros and cons…Pros - very quiet, clean and well stocked throughout the house. Excellent communication from host. Nice backyard. Comfortable bed. Cons - not walkable to anything, have to drive to places on James Island (5-10 minutes) or downtown Charleston (20 minutes). Also the home lacks any character or charm although it is well furnished.

The cottage was clean, beautifully decorated, and spacious. We were blessed to watch our 1 y.o. granddaughter with the use of their high chair, pack and play and stroller they loaned us. Would not have been able to do that without those essentials. Enjoyed the quiet neighborhood and proximity to our family, great restaurants & Folly beach. Would definitely book from them again.
Pack and play worked perfectly for naps.
Granddaughter enjoying all of the walking she could do , especially when we were going to get her.
