quaint little get away

House was in a great location. Just a few steps away from the summer weekend market. It was fun just to be able to walk around downtown. Will likely stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Lauren Sheldon

Hey there! My name is Justin. Along with my beautiful wife Megan, we own/operate this Airbnb with the goal of providing a unique experience for each and every guest. Our mission is to ensure your stay is one that you will remember fondly for a lifetime!

In addition to the two of us, our family consists of Finley, Jhett, and Gray. You can often find us traveling together with family and friends or enjoying our small town by walking through downtown or the Farmers’ Market every Saturday.

Above all else, we're about family. And memories. When those two things collide, we're at our happiest!

Why they chose this property

Our family has called Summerville home for over a decade. We absolutely love downtown Summerville. We feel that it's still a bit of a secret to everyone else just how special this little town is, but the word is getting out fast! We love that Summerville is only a quick 20 minute drive to downtown Charleston, and just over 30 minutes to the surrounding beaches, yet has it's own thing going on. We love the cafes, restaurants, bars, coffee shops, unique gift shops, etc. that this little gem has to offer.
