Comfortable and Relaxing Stay in a Great Location

We stayed 6 nights. Located 15 minutes to Folly Beach and 10 minutes to Charleston downtown. Bed was very comfortable. Bathroom is small but adequate. Enjoyed the quiet neighborhood. Went for morning walks. Kitchen was adequate for our needs. Nice living room setup for watching TV. Great communication with owners. Would definitely stay here again.

Awesome home

This house was in the perfect location. It is a quiet neighborhood. It was very clean and had plenty of room for everyone to sit. The shower has great water pressure and we never ran out of hot water (7 people). Loved that we could bring our dog (Rottweiler) and it had a fenced in backyard. Highly recommend this house. Michael and Kelly were awesome too.

Great Homebase

We had a very nice stay. It was a convenient location because we have family on James Island but wanted to be able to get in and out of Charleston. There were 5 of us and the only drawback was the 1 bathroom but we were well aware of this going into our stay. Clean, roomy and comfortable!

Great family vacation

We really enjoyed our stay at Billfish Bungalow. There was plenty of space for our family of 5 and our kids loved having a backyard to run around in. The house was in a great location, close to everything we wanted to see as well as good restaurants and grocery stores. The kitchen was missing some essentials like a kettle, dish clothes, towels, pot holders and oven mitts. Other than that, it was wonderful!

Great location to beach, and downtown Charleston

It’s perfect when traveling with a pet with the big fenced backyard. It’s located conveniently between Folly Beach and downtown Charleston so we didn’t need to drive far to explore the general area. We would definitely stay there again.

James Island Gem

Updates to property are top notch, and the location is central for quick access to dining/shopping. Baguette Magic is very close and was a favorite for breakfast. Fenced in yard with doggy door was very convenient.

As advertised

The property was as advertised! It was clean and was close enough to DT Charleston and Folly Beach to make going to either of them less than 15 minutes depending on traffic. There are several grocery stores and some decent restaurants nearby, overall it was a great experience.

Clean Home, Great Location

Visited Charleston with 5 adults, a child and a dog. The home was well furnished and clean. The location was perfect, about 15 minutes to historic downtown and Folly beach. There was a doggy door (could be closed) and the fenced in back yard was great. Overall very happy with the property and our stay!
