About this house rental

Arguably the most convenient location in Charleston! This vibrant 1970’s bungalow is just 5 minutes from downtown and 8 miles from Folly Beach. Walking distance to a shopping center with grocery store, restaurants, bars, coffee shop, gas station, and bank! The home offers 2 queen bedrooms and a room with a twin XL over queen bunk bed, great for kids and comfortable for adults, so everyone has a cozy spot. The fully equipped kitchen, bathroom with tub, and screen porch provide all the comforts of home + local artwork, noteworthy books, and eclectic trinkets from around the world. The fenced-in backyard is perfect for kids to play safely.

The convenience of this location can’t be beat: 2 miles to MUSC, 2.8 miles to King Street shopping, and 8 miles to Folly Beach, 1.3 miles to local music venue, the Charleston Pour House, 6 miles to Johns Island.

The house is located on a quiet street, local traffic only. Tons of tiny frogs in the yard. Catching them makes for great entertainment for kids (and adults!)

Note: This home is a duplex, my mother lives next door with her friendly blue heeler named Blue —he loves kids and might ask to join in the fun, though the yards are securely separated.

Amenities:
- Parking: Private driveway for 3 cars (or a boat!), plus additional street parking.
- Entertainment: Cornhole, family board games, kid games, toy basket, pack'n play with crib sheet, and an extra TV in the bunk room for movie nights.
- Outdoor: Fenced-in backyard for kids and pets, and a relaxing screen porch.
- Work & Connectivity: Fast WiFi and a desk in the front bedroom, perfect for a work-cation.
- Kitchen: Fully equipped with all the essentials for cooking at home.
- Laundry: Washer and dryer available for your convenience.
- Bonus: Discounted spa services next door with a professional massage therapist.

Adorable casita with plenty of room for our family and very convenient to downtown Charleston and Folly Beach! Loved it.

Great property overall. Great location and very efficient lay out. We struggled with the strong smells in the rental (cleaning agents and other strong chemically odors?) which triggered some asthma flare ups for our family but probably not an issue for most families. Our kids did love finding lizards, frogs and other wildlife right outside the apartment!

My husband and I booked a last minute trip to take our son to the Aquarium. Jessica is a wonderful host and her house is a must stay. The house is very clean and equipped with everything someone may need. Very quiet neighborhood and central location to the best Charleston has to offer! We will be staying again!
