We had a great stay at property. Since it was just my husband and I, we had the side apartment which met all our needs. Nice amenities and a big comfortable bed. This was such a quiet relaxing location and we enjoyed walking down to the water and through the beautiful neighborhood. Perfect location to everything we wanted to do.

Thank you. We think our views are amazing too! I never stop being awed at the beauty. Hope to see you again !
Laurie and George were amazing! From the beginning to checking out, they stayed in constant communication. When an issue arouse from my own doing, they were prompt and made sure we were comfortable and thorough with helping fix it. The area was nice, MT Pleasant is such a cute place and had amazing food! Would highly recommend staying here or any other place they rent!

This house and location is so close to Downtown, that we feel like it is practically considered to be downtown! The location is the best of all worlds....close enough to enjoy the downtown, but unique because it also feels like the Old way of Charleston....where the water and Marsh are intertwined with life. Thanks for being great guests!
Our family took children and grand children and really enjoyed our stay in this home. Although it’s a drive to the beach the house and it’s ammenities were great!

We strive to exceed expectations in cleanliness and comfort, and we are continually fixing and upgrading or repairing where needed. We recently repainted 2 bedrooms, replaced 2 twin beds with 2 doubles, ordered a new outdoor Hot Tub, and got a new King mattress for the master bedroom. it is important to continually upkeep and maintain a house to strive for excellent ratings. Thank you for enjoying the house.
This is the third time we have stayed at The Big Chill House - it's just the perfect place to relax. Beautiful, clean, wonderful owners and views of the water. We're coming back again in February!

Why they chose this property
We attend to every stylish detail. We directly supervise cleaning. We live on the property and treat this with extra loving care. We were drawn to this unique waterfront property with the southern feeling and privacy, with location, location, location. Being near the beaches and downtown makes this a perfect spot.
What makes this property unique
Only a very short hop into Charleston just over the bridge ! This house is super convenient to Downtown Charleston and the beach of Sullivan's Island is just 6 miles down the road. Truly a "perfect central location". Gorgeous surroundings plus the dock. This property is encircled by water and marsh, and has water views of the creeks, the rivers, and the marshes. The water views and the tidal changes really make this property spectacular. It is all about the fabulous waterfront location, the ebb and flow of the tides, the natural wildlife, and the privacy, combined with a comfortable savvy home. What a way to enjoy Historic Charleston, the Beaches and the marshes! The location can't be beat, as is evidenced by all the new mega million dollar homes in the area.
