Thanks again Sabine for choosing to stay at the property and leaving us a positive review. It's very much appreciated and I hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future!
This unit was great! It was the perfect location between downtown Charleston and Folly Beach. It had everything we needed and the perfect space for a family of four.

Thank you Kim and I appreciate your review and kind words for your stay. Great guests like you are very appreciated!
This house was perfect for my husband and I to enjoy during a visit to Charleston. We especially liked the location as it was convenient to get to the activities we had planned with family. I would choose to stay here again.
This place was above my expectations! Clean, simple yet beautiful decor, and I can’t begin to tell you how good I slept!! The neighborhood was super quiet and I felt safe enough to leave my 14 year old there while I did a quick grocery trip. Close to shops and the beach! Would definitely stay again!

We really enjoyed our stay. We loved the location as it was just a short drive to Folly Beach as well as to downtown Charleston. The apartment was very clean with updated features. Tom was a great communicator to get us set for our visit. My wife has fragrance sensitivity and this place totally met our needs. We would definitely come back here. It is A

Thanks Jeff! It was great to host you and I'm glad you enjoyed your stay and time in Charleston.
The place was really comfortable. Everything was exactly as described. It was very clean when we arrived. The air conditioners, kitchen equipment, and tv’s all worked perfectly. There was even a small fenced in area for the dogs to play and do their business.

Great place for couples or family with 1 or 2 children. Fenced area for dog but also a walkable neighborhood with sidewalks. Place is centrally located. Very convenient to Folly Beach and John’s Island. Also close to downtown Charleston Quiet neighborhood. House was very clean, modern and kitchen was well equipped. Check in and check out was seamless. Host was readily available if needed
