Inside, bold design meets timeless charm, creating a space that feels both elevated and comfortably yours.

The Space:
Blue Cottage was designed for guests who crave the character of Charleston without sacrificing comfort or design. With its private entrance, two king bedrooms, and cozy living spaces, it’s the perfect nest for couples, friends, or anyone who loves the feeling of their own secret address in the city.

What We Love:
• Two king bedrooms with premium mattresses, luxe linens & plush pillows

With everything just a wander away, and rides aplenty, you're set for the easy life in this walker's paradise. Convenience is king, and you're wearing the crown!

From your doorstep, you can easily walk to:

Super Cute and Cozy Stay

My sister and I stayed here during my niece’s bachelorette party and we loved being slightly off the beaten path but still in a fabulous location. The apartment is so cute and well designed and beds were very comfortable. The house stayed very cool in the July heat which was probably the most important thing!! We used the day pass to the pool club and had a great relaxing day. Would definitely stay here again.

Charming cottage in beautiful Charleston

We spent four days in Charleston for a wedding. The cottage was perfect for our party of four. The location was super convenient. It was walking distance to King Street and had several coffee shops, restaurants and bakeries within two block. The cottage itself was clean, well equipped and comfortable seating and beds.

An oasis in downtown Charleston!

We were delighted with the Casa Zoë blue cottage! It was impeccably decorated, fresh and clean, and extremely accommodating. I traveled to the city with my two friends and having a living space, large bedrooms, an outdoor shower, patio, and lovely kitchen made the stay very enjoyable. It was better than staying in a hotel and so quiet! We would return in a minute. Gorgeous!

Charleston Trip

Our stay in Charleston was absolutely perfect. The location of the Blue Cottage at Casa Zoe was fantastic! The home was exactly what we had hoped for, it was only a few blocks away from King Street which made everything so convenient. We plan on coming back to Charleston. We know exactly where we would want to stay, Casa Zoe if it’s available.

The Blue Cottage is amazing

This was truly the best weekend stay. The cottage and host were amazing. It was perfect for my husband and I and our pups. Location to downtown was perfect. A few minutes walk to dining and shopping. The Blue cottage is stunning and had everything or anything we needed. We definitely plan to stay here again. Highly recommend visiting the Blue cottage for your stay in Charleston.

Charming property, conveniently located to Upper King St.

My 15yo daughter and I enjoyed staying in the Blue Cottage during YALL Fest. Just the right size for the two of us and all our things. Could add 2 more people to the mix with bed sharing. Had to contact property manager upon check-in with some questions. She responded quickly and was friendly and helpful. We would stay here again.
