We had a perfect stay in Summerville! After a long day of driving, it was such a relief to park the car and walk right into downtown for dinner. The home was spotless and truly felt like a 'home away from home' with every convenience we could need—we especially loved having the choice between a Keurig and a standard coffee pot! Tim was an excellent host; he sent clear check-in directions ahead of time and was incredibly quick to respond to any questions. We would definitely stay here again!

The cottage is comfortable, convenient and quiet. It suited us perfectly. We visited the historic area, the beach and Middleton Place. It was not a winery, so we’re confused by that survey question, but it was beautiful and we’d love to return.

This property is exactly as pictured and is in immaculate condition. The location is perfect! A historic mature neighborhood a short and lovely 10 minute stroll to quaint shopping and restaurants at Hutchinson Square. The hospitality of the hosts is above and beyond and without hesitation, we would rebook and stay again.

Perfect stay for our needs

The property was perfect for our stay. It was nice having a washer and dryer and kitchen. The place was central to the activities that we did near Summerville. The host gave us recommendation for other activities and we did to to the Magnoila Gardens which was lovely and the Fish Camp recommendation for dinner was great! Note if you are a light sleeper there is a train that runs nightly. We will be back for our next visit to Summerville!

Perfect Getaway

The town of Summerville is a perfect getaway and the Cottage was in a great location in a quiet neighborhood. The Cottage is small, but not too small. We found it to be perfect for us. It was by far the cleanest ABNB that we have stayed in. They owners are doing a little work around the property, but that did not detract from the experience. One earlier post mentioned the train that goes through town; we did here it, but it was not a bother. Great for couples and we plan to return.

Charm Galore!

If you are planning on visiting the Summerville area of South Carolina you could not find a more charming place to stay than this incredible cottage set in a very picturesque location. The cottage is extremely well appointed throughout (the shower alone is worth staying here). The property owners Rachael and Tim are fabulous hosts and if per chance you have any interest in relocating to this area of South Carolina they can be a tremendous resource. We will unhesitatingly plan to stay here again when we make our next trip to Summerville.

Perfect Blend of Charm and Comfort

My husband and I were on a road trip to watch the women's tennis tournament in Charleston. We wanted a place to stay that represented the charm and history of South Carolina. We found it, and more! The cottage was well-appointed and the attention to every detail was very appreciated. Having a washer/dryer was so helpful for our trip. The hosts were above and beyond friendly and helpful. The location, cleanliness and all updated amenities make us want to come back next year, which we hope to do!! Highly recommend.

April in Summerville Cottage

This adorable 350 sq ft cottage was perfectly outfitted for everything we needed for a three week work/play stay. The porch was wonderful, and once the main house renovation is complete, will be quiet and have a lovely view. The cottage is in the historic district only a few blocks walk to downtown for restaurants, shops, events and the Saturday farmers market. The hosts were kind and quick to answer questions and make recommendations.
