My home is equipped with all the little things that make life more convenient and comfortable. This is an open spaced home with a cook's kitchen. All you need is your food. I have all the basic equipment for cooking. The beds are comfortable with soft sheets and down comforters. There is a quaint courtyard for grilling or relaxing. While walking to the historic landmarks downtown you will pass charming gardens and piazzas.
The home is in a safe neighborhood near MUSC and The College of Charleston. It is out of the congestion of the tourist area but close enough to walk to restaurants and historical sites. Bring your bicycles and leave your car parked. I provide recommendations for our many delicious restaurants.

Map & Owner's Profile
Charming and Quaint!
Year Purchased: 2008
Why the Owner Chose Charleston
I enjoy traveling and understand a traveler's needs. I decided to rent out my home so I could see the world and you can see Charleston in comfort.
The Unique Benefits at this Townhome
Art is my passion. You will be surrounded by original oil paintings, photography and handmade pottery most of which is made by me. The oil paintings are available for sale. You will get a special reduced price being a guest of mine. I am a "foodie" so I enjoy nice wine glasses and creative dinner ware. The high quality of the down comforters, sheets and towels will make your stay a little more comfortable. My home is out of the congestion of the commercial area but close enough to engage you within minutes. The back patio is set up with a charcoal grill, table and chairs and an outdoor fire place. Firewood is provided.
Owner's Map of Charleston
I am an artist and therapist. I show my art at The artist Guild Gallery on East Bay St as well as in my home. I love living in downtown Charleston. You are minutes away from history, entertainment and beauty. After moving here in 1987, I knew downtown living was the only place for me. I created a home that invites relaxation. I enjoy cooking and entertaining so I created a cook's kitchen where guests can visit with you while you cook. My home is convenient for walking to shops, restaurants and historic homes and gardens. After arrival put away your car and walk, bike or call a bike taxi.

The perfect rental

This VRBO was the perfect rental for a relaxing few days between Christmas and New Year's. All of the listing info and photos were accurate, but we were still surprised at how lovely the place really was when we arrived. It was cleaned immaculately and everything we needed was there (even firewood for the fireplace), Robin was such a pleasure to work with and even has a folder of information on great places to eat and see waiting for her guests. I would certainly rent from Robin again and would highly recommend it for adults or families with older children.

You never know, when renting a place online, if you will arrive and be disappointed. From first contacting Robin, we could not have been happier. She worked with us while we got organized, checked in on us before we arrived, and left information in her home for us about places to go and eat. What a refreshing change! Her home is immaculte and amazingly decorated. The pictures do not do her home justice! She said it would feel like home once we got settled and she could not have been more right. Her home is well maintained and offers so much more than a hotel ever could! In addition to the charm of her beautiful home, it is super convenient to everything. A short walk puts you right in the middle things in downtown Charleston. The neighborhood is safe and we walked home after dark without hesitation. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this home to family and friends and anyone else who wants an amazing home in Charleston....
Owner response:Thank you for respecting my home. It is so wonderful to rent to responsible and kind people.

Robin, your home is so warm and inviting, it felt like staying in the home of a friend. I admired all of your lovely artwork and getting to select a beautiful, hand-made mug for my coffee each morning was a delightful treat. The basket of brochures and maps on the counter is a very thoughtful gesture and we especially appreciated the list of restaurants complete with your comments and suggestions. We quickly discovered there is no way to see and experience all of Charleston's charm, beauty and history in such a short time. We look forward to visiting Charleston again and hope your home will be available.

Enjoyed our stay in Robin's home. Location was perfect....within walking distance of downtown but far enough away that you don't have to worry about noise or parking. Beautiful patio area. Overall a wonderful experience.

Robin Just wanted to thank you again for moving heaven and earth. We LOVED staying in your home and LOVED your home too. Thanks for being so wonderfully flexible and friendly. Why would anyone stay in a hotel in Charleston if your home is available? It was such a special visit for the three of us. All the best.
Owner response:I really appreciate your kind words.

My husband and I absolutely adored our stay at Robin's home, which is adorned by her own wonderful art work. We came back each day from our exploring on our 'babymoon' saying to each other how happy we were to be coming back there as opposed to a hotel. It was super comfortable (both the bed and the couch), quiet, and felt like an authentic Charleston experience. We grilled on the beautiful terrace/garden, utilized the parking spot and loved this as our home base. It was super clean upon our arrival and Robin took the time to outline restaurant suggestions in materials she prepared for us. Please feel free to email with questions specific to your vacation.

Robin's home is the perfect place to stay when visiting Charleston. It had everything we needed and was in a great location. The pictures truly don't do her home justice; it is incredibly warm yet unique.

This property is within walking distance to all activities downtown charleston. It is on a quite street that gives you all comforts and privacy of home. Robin has various pieces of art in her home that are very nice and unique. A great value for the money.
