Lovely spot within walking distance of most everything

Lovely 2nd floor apartment. Clean, quiet, lovely and convenient. If I had to find a fault it would be that the bed isn’t the most comfortable but not so bad that I wouldn’t recommend the place without hesitation.

Great location but some issues

The property is at an excellent location within walking distance of restaurants and other sights of Charleston. The house is charming. There were two problems though. One, there is no designated parking; we needed to park on the street. For the relatively high rental charges, the property should provide parking. Second, the bed was ridicularly high off the ground; we worried about injury.

Beautiful place to stay

This is a stunning VRBO, fantastic location in the historic district. Beautifully decorated, bedroom linens amazing, incredible outdoor space. We loved it! We did have some significant communication issues with the hosts, but in the end, I am very glad it worked out because it was a lovely stay.

Very special opportunity!

Terrific home base to explore and enjoy this wonderful city. South Of Broad is a gorgeous neighborhood and being able to stay in a historically significant location makes enjoying this city even more special. The apartment is lovely, quiet, comfortable, well maintained, and stocked with everything you might need for a comfortable and convenient stay. Lovely linens, very clean, and a very comfortable bed. I did an extended 2 week stay, it quickly felt like home, and I was a bit sad to pack up and leave. The property exceeded my expectations. Would gladly stay here again and worry it has spoiled me.

October Charleston Weekend

Like having your own immaculate fully furnished one bedroom apartment on quiet street in the heart of Old Charleston--a short walk to the Battery waterfront, the CARTA bus stop, places of interest. Communication w/host was excellent regarding parking, use of facilities etc. Highly recommended.

Can't wait to go back!

This is such a charming property... it just "feels" like what you would imagine Charleston to be. The location is very convenient to shops and restaurants and museums, but it was honestly so peaceful in the garden that one could never want to leave. The hosts are even more charming and kind and welcoming ... can't wait to go back!

Great apartment!

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2nd stay at this carriage house. It is located perfectly for walking throughout Charleston, is quite clean, and has all the amenities you would want. We can highly recommend it. (The owner provides a picture of the spiral staircase from the ground floor to the actual apartment, so be mindful of that if stairs are a challenge for you.)

Wonderful guest house in the city!

This was a perfect place for the 2 of us to stay. Beautiful & quiet. Luxury amenities. Gracious hostess! Convenient to walk everywhere. The only thing was we got a parking ticket for being on the street. We were under the impression that it was "parking provided" and did not need to move into a garage during the day. I wish that had been made more clearly before we booked the reservation. All in all - we enjoyed a lovely weekend.

Charleston Gem

What a wonderful apartment, in a great location! The apartment has lots of old charm with modern amenities. And the garden is lovely. The host was very responsive to questions we had. We didn't mind the circular stairs to the apartment, but that could be a deterrent to some. We highly recommend staying here!

BEAUTIFUL HISTORIC HOME

We really enjoyed our stay. The home was charming. It was centrally located to downtown Charleston which worked out great for walking since we hadn't rented a car. The Grimballs couldn't have been more welcoming as well as their son, Henry. We loved reading about the history of this home (from Henry's school report) Would definitely recommend!
