Guest Access:
This suite has access to the large front porch with exclusive, dedicated seating, a private rear porch, and patio with Green Egg charcoal grill, complementary charcoal. Complimentary parking for one vehicle.
The Neighborhood:
Visitors can enjoy convenient dining options directly next door at Southbound and Ladles Soup across from the apartment. The home is set in Cannonborough, an inviting downtown area blending historic and stylish residential homes. It’s steps away from the College of Charleston, as well as Upper King Street’s eateries and shopping.
Getting Around:
We are only 3 blocks from Upper King Street, so most guests prefer to walk and explore the city. The beach is 15 minutes away by car. There is also a free shuttle offered by the city that runs along King Street (3 blocks away) to popular stops. Bike rentals are available nearby or you might enjoy trying a pedicab taxi. We offer free parking on site or in the lot we manage across the street.
Other Things to Note:
We are three blocks from King Street, right in the middle of all Charlestonian activity. Incredible restaurants such as Southbound, Verns, 167 Raw, Malagon, Indaco, and Azur. Great places to have drinks are even closer at places like Felix, Stars, Babas, and Prohibition. There are also great niche restaurants closer than King Street, such as coastal Italian at Allora or creative Indian at Rivayat. If you want the full Charleston experience, a walking tour or carriage tour is a must. If you have sea legs and are aiming for total immersion into history, the steamboat runs to Ft. Sumter daily and you can land your two feet exactly where the Civil War started.

Beautiful space! A bit hard to locate and the door was wide open, so we were worried that we were in the wrong unit. Wonderful coffee and amazing beds!

We appreciate your feedback and are glad you enjoyed your stay. We apologize for the door being open, and we’re not sure how that occurred, as our doors are kept closed and locked at all times. Would love to welcome you back on your next visit to Charleston!
We had a wonderful stay and the location was ideal. Walking distance to restaurants and King Street. The decor was cozy and welcoming and the bedding was especially inviting. Would highly recommend!

This place had everything you could need! It’s an awesome location close to bars restaurant and shops, very comfortable bed, cute living room and day bed area, and great kitchen! We loved sitting outside on the front porch!
This was a great location for entertainment and all of the venues for the Charleston food and wine classic. We were able to walk to all venues, but Uber and Lyft are easily available as well.
