South Carolina Love!

This was a perfect place to stay! The property was clean and safe and the hosts pay attention to the little details that made our stay feel like home. They are very responsive to questions and provide an option to see what’s happening in the area while you are there. Don’t pass this one up!

Cozy island home

We enjoyed this place so much as a family of four. Our family felt at home right away and it was perfectly located to stores, restaurants, shopping, and Folly beach. The Florida room was our favorite room for relaxing together. The property owners were great with communicating as well. We would definitely stay again!

Perfect for family or group of friends.

The house was great for our family. It was well stocked and very kid friendly with a pack n play and a highchair at the house. The perfect amount of charm without too many knick knacks for the kids to get into. The bed blankets were a little thin, so you may want to bring your own if you or your kids like more of a comforter style bedspread. The kitchen was well stocked as well and appliances were nice. The only negative was that they were out of laundry detergent. It looks like the bottle may have just been finished by the previous renters. We would definitely stay there again on our next trip to Charleston.

About the host

Hosted by Stay Lowcountry

I have lived in Charleston for 11 years. I enjoy being on the water, snow skiing, live music, meeting new people, and exploring the outdoors. Traveling through South America and Southeast Asia I developed a curiosity for experiencing new cultures and people. I am happy to have my roots in Charleston, with it's beautiful beaches, eminence history, and vast inland waterways.

I moved to Charleston to attend the College of Charleston, where I graduated Cum Laude from The School of Business. I now live in Charleston and work in Real Estate and Construction. I love my city and know it well so I am always happy to make recommendations for activities, tours, and restaurants. Myself or a cohost is always available to address any issues that may arise during a stay. Looking forward to hosting you!!
