Girls weekend!

Stayed here for a girls weekend with the six of us. Plenty of room to spread out and three bathrooms to get ready in. Our host James was very accommodating and informative. The house is so cute and the neighborhood has some great walkable restaurants and parks nearby.

We stayed at this beautiful property for our annual girls’ trip—six women in our 50s—and it couldn’t have been more perfect! The house was spacious, well-appointed, and incredibly comfortable, with each of us having our own cozy bed, which was a huge plus.We especially loved the porch—it quickly became our favorite spot for morning coffee and evening wine. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, with easy driveway parking for our rental car. It was just a quick 10-minute Uber ride into downtown Charleston, making it super convenient without being in the middle of the crowds.The kitchen was large and well-stocked, and everything about check-in and check-out was seamless. Communication with the host was quick and easy, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable.This home truly had everything we needed for a relaxing, fun, and memorable getaway. Highly recommend—we’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

Perfectly Hidden Gem

This place is impeccably done. From the kitchen to the bedrooms, it is a perfect combination of original 100+ year old details and modern. The front porch is a treasure. The owner was absolutely incredible to work with. He was exceptionally responsive and helpful. We will definitely stay here again.

Ladies' week in Charleston

We had 6 women and it was very comfortable and spacious. If more than 2 people had trouble doing stairs if could be challenging as there is 1 BR on main floor. It worked great for us. Located in a wonderful neighborhood; we were able to walk to several wonderful restaurants. A very walkable neighborhood; close to large park. We enjoyed sitting on porch in evenings.

4th of July Long Weekend

We had a fantastic time staying at the Lord Ashley! The accommodations including the bedrooms and bathrooms were in great condition. The kitchen is very well stocked with different appliances, cookware, and cooking items ie. foil, Pam, oil, etc. We were provided with a bag of ice, which was a nice touch. We had a toddler with us and he enjoyed the high chair and pack n play that were provided by the host. We also appreciated the view from the deck to the park across the street. We had a wonderful time!

Great House

We loved our stay at "Lord Ashley". James was very responsive to the minor questions we had about the property. The dishwasher door was the only item that I would say should be fixed as it could cause a safety issue as it is a heavy dishwasher door and the hinge is broken causing it to fall quicker than a user would expect. All the other appliance were top of the line and large which was great for us as we prepared a Thanksgiving meal and had lots of left overs etc. Plenty of parking was also available which is important in Charleston. We will definitely rent this house from James!

Charleston Charmer!

My sons, their spouses and I were in town from multiple states for a family wedding. We found a gem in this house! Location was ideal for all of our adventures, and a short Uber ride to the events venues. Less than 1/2 hour to Folly beach, several plantation sites, Mt. Pleasant and Shem Creek...and within walking to King Street/shopping/the Citadel, etc. The house itself is very well equipped with plenty of linens, comfortable beds, beautiful kitchen w/high end appliances, and lots of room to spread out. It has a lovely side porch and a separate patio for morning coffee, evening cocktails or just reading a book or napping. James is so responsive and helpful! We would absolutely stay here again! Happy Travels!

Charleston 6 Crew

My friends and I went for a girls’ getaway- first time in this city. This house was perfect for us. We liked the layout of the place, the charm, and how it was a ten minute drive to King Street. The host James was amazing. He was responsive and helpful with recommendations. He asked for our ETA and then went over to the house to turn on the porch light for us. He was an attentive host and you can tell he takes pride in his property. We highly recommend this host and place.

Great house, location and host

A group of 7 college girlfriends turning 60 just stayed at this beautiful home and had a wonderful vacation. It was very comfortable, has a great porch and back patio, is located just far away but also close enough to the downtown area and the host James was so accommodating. He quickly answered any questions before and during our stay. Highly recommend this great property if you're ever visiting Charleston.

About the host

Hosted by James Ravenel

Host profile image
Born and raised in Charleston, SC, I started off as an S.O.B., South Of Broad :) I now live further up the peninsula in Hampton Park Terrace, which I adore. With its leafy streets and neighborhood vibrancy, I love staying close to home enjoying all the new local restaurants and bars. I've been lucky enough to live abroad, travelling the world teaching ESL, surfing and falling in love with various cities, but I still consider Charleston one of the most beautiful and charming I've ever seen!

Why they chose this property

I fell in love with this quintessential Arts and Crafts era home the second I saw it. The open floor plan and sunlit rooms immediately won me over. But my favorite part is the glorious little park it sits directly on. There's nothing better than waking up on a spring day in Charleston and being able to sip my morning coffee over-looking the flowing fountain and grand live oak trees from my porch.

What makes this property unique

Enjoying a lazy afternoon laying on the porch swing with a book in the shade and having friends and family over for a BBQ in the back patio.
