Great cottage experience

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at this property! The home beautifully decorated, and had all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect—close to everything but still peaceful and relaxing. The host was incredibly responsive and made check-in and check-out a breeze. We especially appreciated the little touches like the welcome banana bread, welcome basket, water in the refrigerator, k-cups, sugar and creamer and local recommendations. We would absolutely stay here again!

From initial contact with JoDee to check out, she was amazing to work with! The location and room are perfect for walkability into downtown Summerville to farmers market, boutique shopping, coffee shops, restaurants and bars! Room was perfect for 2 of us, included a nice selection of Keurig coffee and tea, microwave and toaster oven. The bathroom was perfect size for adding your toiletries to the vanity top etc. Thanks again for a great stay at the Pink Dolphin, we’ll be back!
