Great Place
Very nice place to stay. Close to all kinds of amenities. Food, entertainment, grocery stores, etc. Only about 7-8 minutes to downtown which is nice. Our kids loved feeding the turtles and ducks as well. Great communication and very accommodating.

Charleston on the Lake
This house is roomy. It has a great space for a young family on the third floor with a king and full/twin bunk bed with its own full bath. There are 2 more on the second floor which can accomodate 5. The view from the patio is awesome with its own patio seating and umbrella. From there is also a great view of the huge turtles that reside in the lake. It's a wonderful stay!

Was clean and bed was comfortable. It is dated, but the lids liked the novelty of having 3 stories and going yo and down the stairs. Everyone got their own space and no one complained.

Great stay!
This house was everything that we wanted and more. The house was so clean and spacious! The decks overlooking the lake were amazing places to sit and relax. You couldn’t even tell that it was in the middle of town. The only thing to be aware of is parking. This house sleeps quite a few people and there are only 2 assigned parking spaces. There are 2 guest spaces but those were usually taken. My advice would be to try and travel together in as few vehicles as possible. Other than parking, this stay was a dream! I highly recommend it!

Great option for multiple families
Townhouse was perfect set up for our family, spanning three generations. This was perfect for all age ranges from pre-schooler, to teenagers and adults alike. We particularly enjoyed feeding the turtles in the lake.

Naval Nuclear training graduation
The property is exactly as listed and close to everything needed. My only informative comment to future possible renters is, due to the steepness of the stairs and that it only has a handrail on one side of the steps, it may not be the best place for people not stable on their feet. We had no issue, but i could see where some people would.

Great Central Spot
Super close to the airport, and not far from downtown. The house is well insulated from airport noise, and the master suite on the top floor was really nice. We’ll definitely look at staying here again the next time we come to Charleston.

family wedding weekend!
if you’re looking for a spacious property at a reasonable rate, this unit has lots of space and four separate sleeping areas with 3 1/2 baths. Close to the highway in Airport so you will have some noise. Nothing major, but could use a little TLC.

Thurs -Mon for wedding
We stayed here for our son’s wedding. Nicole was great about responding. Please keep in mind they aren’t kidding about lack of parking. Room for 2 cars with a few spots scattered around the lake. We had 4 cars, all coming from different parts of the country. A few suggestions. Could use more towels and wash cloths. Also, despite one reviewer complimenting the beds, none of us slept well on them. One was listed a queen and it was clearly a full size. Other than that, met our needs.

Quiet & Convenient
The property has plenty of room and bathrooms for more than 5 people. It didn’t take us more than 20-30 minutes to get to all the sights we wanted to explore. The seating in the family room area was not completely conducive to all of us relaxing together in the evenings, but we made do. Nicole was quick to respond to all texts including arranging a time to come out and replace a light in the shower. Feeding the turtles and ducks was an enjoyable bonus! I’d highly recommend Nicole’s property especially if you don’t want to be in the hustle and bustle on your whole trip.

Cruise stay
We stayed at the Lowcountry Lookout the night before our cruise. Nicole was easy to work with and the home was as nice as the photos portrayed. It was plenty of room for our family of 8 and we would stay again. It was close to what we needed as well. I was a little surprised how close we were to the airport but it was actually cool to see the planes, and they stopped before late and never heard anything overnight. We wil stay again if we cruise out of Charleston again!

Folly Beach vacay
The property was presented far nicer than it was. The location was back in an industrial area. The furniture was very used and uncomfortable. The deck needed painting and maintenance especially the railings on the lake. The dishes, specifically silverware and cups were dirty. Roach in living room. Found used lollipop on floor on third floor. No mop in unit. I feel this unit was overpriced for what it was. Owner stated that the previous visitors left the place a mess so we were not able to get in at 4 as the cleaning lady took longer. The en-suite on the second floor that was advertised with a jacuzzi tube was ridiculous. It was a very old tube that looked like it had been set on top of an existing frame. The shower was very old and stained. Nicole seemed like a nice lady but this property was a total disappointment for the price.

So good I’m thinking of moving there!
I love the space. Nice neighborhood. Enough room for all the family. Very convenient to downtown but not so close there’s too much traffic. All the amenities you need (and more). Neighbors seem to also be renters but were quiet and lovely. Minus a star because the planes are very close. Not a problem because there are less flights at night. Great stay, thanks!!

Nice Property
Overall the property itself was very nice, clean and exactly what we were looking for size wise. The property owners went above and beyond communicating. The check in and out process was super easy. The lake view was beautiful but we experienced not only noisy neighbors but the noise from airplanes and trains made it a little less enjoyable. Overall, we were very pleased with the accommodations, decor and cleanliness!! Thank you!
