Family vaca at Charleston

Our family had a great time. The home was a good location for walking to restaurants shopping, etc.. it was a very safe area for our children and grandchildren. It was an easy drive to the beach, or to boat tours and museums. There were 11 of us in total so we rented a complete house, and it worked out very well.

Wonderful family time in Charleston

This house is perfectly placed and worked well for our family - 11 strong with ages ranging from 1 - 92! For a family of our size we were disappointed in that there was not real 'gathering' space for all of us. The beds and bedrooms were clean and comfortable. The front room is extremely noisy even with the provided sound machine. All in all the house worked fine for us.

Girls Trip to Charleston

I recently stayed at this property, a beautiful historic home within walking distance of King Street, with 8 friends. The home was recently updated but still retains much of its charm. There are 5 bedrooms, 5 full baths, 2 living areas, 2 kitchens and a kitchenette. The home very comfortably fit the 9 of us. There are 2 very large wrap around porches that where wonderful. A few negative points mainly due to the age of the home: Everyone naturally congregates in the kitchen and both kitchens are pretty small, the street noise can be a little loud (they had noise machines by each bed-nice touch), the inside and outside are steep and some a little slanted (it could be a challenge for some). Overall we loved the house, location and would definitely stay there again!

Response from VrboOwner on 20 Apr, 2021
Hey Morgan! Thanks for the review! Spring Street is a lively downtown street with expected street noise - but thankfully a wonderful compromise to staying on the very loud King Street while still staying in the midst of everything. We haven't had anyone mention a slant before! With three full kitchens we feel there is plenty of kitchen space - but appreciate your feedback and the 5 star review :) Would be happy to host another time!

Over Promised, Under delivered

Home was clean and is a great location. The furnishings in the two dens were extremely old and worn out, not really conducive to family gatherings. The house's lighting is very poor. The bedrooms need blackout shades, the light pours into the bedrooms all night. The house needs an update. There were some issues with communication prior to arrival, felt like I was dealing with AI and not an actual person online. The couple of times I spoke to management people they were very responsive.

Beautiful house central to everything in Charleston

Beautifully decorated, large house perfect for two families- we were a total of 9 with tons of room to spare. Less than a mile walk to literally everything, wrap around two story porch perfect for people watching and your morning coffee or evening cocktails. Three kitchens, two sets of washer and dryer. Only drawback is if you stay in one of the street-facing bedrooms (1 right off downstairs kitchen and one upstairs) you can hear literally everything (people waking, Cars driving by, early morning delivery and garbage trucks) and there’s construction going on next door that started at about 7:45am each morning so bring some ear plugs. Our friends and kids slept in the bedrooms that face the back of the house and didn’t get woken up like we did. All in all this was a great place to stay and we highly recommend this house for large gatherings.
