Travelled to Charleston for a family wedding. Perfect place for our family.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Nov 2025
This charming home is well appointed, ideally located to explore downtown Charleston, and comfortable for a large group. The host creates a welcoming environment from the moment you enter the house. We celebrated my husband’s birthday with our grown children and couldn’t have selected better accommodations.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Oct 2025
The house was clean, great location and easy access to downtown Charleston. We really appreciated the comfy beds and all of the little extras. The snacks, bottled water and treats were a big hit. The multiple umbrellas to use were invaluable during our rainy stay. We will definitely stay here again when visiting Charleston!
