Thank you Kim and I appreciate your review and kind words for your stay. Great guests like you are very appreciated!
This house was perfect for my husband and I to enjoy during a visit to Charleston. We especially liked the location as it was convenient to get to the activities we had planned with family. I would choose to stay here again.
We really enjoyed our stay. We loved the location as it was just a short drive to Folly Beach as well as to downtown Charleston. The apartment was very clean with updated features. Tom was a great communicator to get us set for our visit. My wife has fragrance sensitivity and this place totally met our needs. We would definitely come back here. It is A

Thanks Jeff! It was great to host you and I'm glad you enjoyed your stay and time in Charleston.
This place was above my expectations! Clean, simple yet beautiful decor, and I can’t begin to tell you how good I slept!! The neighborhood was super quiet and I felt safe enough to leave my 14 year old there while I did a quick grocery trip. Close to shops and the beach! Would definitely stay again!

Thanks Leanne for you kind words and review of your stay! I appreciate it and look forward to having you and your family back to stay again! Thanks for being great guests and safe travels.
The place was really comfortable. Everything was exactly as described. It was very clean when we arrived. The air conditioners, kitchen equipment, and tv’s all worked perfectly. There was even a small fenced in area for the dogs to play and do their business.
