Charming historic home in a lovely quiet neighborhood. Our kids loved playing games on the porch, walking to the park and eating at the nearby restaurants. We were in town to visit family and this was the perfect relaxing setting for us to connect. We were comfortable and had plenty of space.
Wonderful stay in Summerville, house was very convenient to the historic town center, we walked into town a few times a day. Exactly what we were looking for. And the homeowners were great to work with.
This is one of the finest places we have ever rented through verb. Jane is fantastic host and super communicative. The house is furnished in the most beautiful way in keeping with historic neighborhood. This will be out "go to" place when we have lots of visitors. Thanks.

thank you for your kind words, it was our pleasure.
Jane was very accommodating and even offered an early check-in and a high chair for our use. We had a wonderful time staying at this property. The location is quiet but close to everything at the same time. The home is very well decorated and comfortable. If staying in Summerville, this is a great place.
We rented this historic home and were so impressed with how clean, charming, and well-maintained it was. The space was roomy, comfortable, and equipped with all the amenities of home. The host was exceptionally responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We would absolutely recommend this property to anyone looking for a wonderful place to stay.
A beautiful cottage with all the comforts of home. We loved it and the surrounding neighborhood. A wonderfully quiet and peaceful place to stay. We would definitely love to stay here again. Our daily walks were amazing, so much beauty and history.

The neighborhood and home are beautiful. Everything was spotless and we were provided with any necessities we needed. The decor was just gorgeous. It was the perfect place to spend time with family. Make sure to spend some time relaxing on the beautiful front porch!
Beautiful home in a lovely, historic neighborhood. The walkability is great ! Easy to get to downtown Summerville or Azalea Park. We had plenty of room for 3 couples.

We are blown away by your review. Thank you and so glad you enjoyed your stay.
The house was very clean and in a beautiful area. And while the owners live next door, they did not impede on us at all. Jane was very friendly. I would definitely stay again.
The cottage is, as an understatement, perfect. The cottage, is really a spacious house but is still very cozy. Plenty of room for us. The rooms are well furnished and very comfortable. If we ever have a reason to go to South Carolina we will definitely be back.

Loved this beautiful historical neighborhood and home! I couldn’t have been more pleased with this overnight visit before our weekend in Charleston. Walked to dinner and breakfast in this quaint southern town. Perfect!

About the host
Hosted by Jane Ellis
Why they chose this property
My husband and I used to walk by this area downtown Summerville and both agreed it was our favorite street. One day we saw a for sale sign and the rest is history. We still love this street and neighbors and we think you will too.
What makes this property unique
We moved this over110 year old home from down the street, put it on our lot and remodeled it. It has imperfections but loads of charm.
Premier Host
They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
