This place was above my expectations! Clean, simple yet beautiful decor, and I can’t begin to tell you how good I slept!! The neighborhood was super quiet and I felt safe enough to leave my 14 year old there while I did a quick grocery trip. Close to shops and the beach! Would definitely stay again!

Great place for couples or family with 1 or 2 children. Fenced area for dog but also a walkable neighborhood with sidewalks. Place is centrally located. Very convenient to Folly Beach and John’s Island. Also close to downtown Charleston Quiet neighborhood. House was very clean, modern and kitchen was well equipped. Check in and check out was seamless. Host was readily available if needed

The place was really comfortable. Everything was exactly as described. It was very clean when we arrived. The air conditioners, kitchen equipment, and tv’s all worked perfectly. There was even a small fenced in area for the dogs to play and do their business.
