We have never stayed in a rental that was as well supplied as this on. Jonathan was very generous with consumables, even purchasing a box of Girl Scout cookies to share with our visiting grandkids. The fenced in yard was perfect for our dog. It was a very comfortable stay in a low traffic neighborhood that was perfect for walking, and there were many stores and restaurants within a 5 minute drive. Folly Beach was only 15 minutes away, although on our last day there the weather was beautiful and traffic was quite heavy - would recommend going early.
James County Park, 8 minutes away with an excellent dog park.

The perfect stay

This was our first time visiting the Charleston area and found this property perfect for what we needed. There was plenty of room for six guests. The host Jon was super friendly and very accommodating. The house was clean and the all the mattresses were very comfortable. The location is perfect whether you’re going to Folly beach or downtown. The fact that it was pet friendly was a life saver. We would definitely rent again.

Great spot for family trip

Had a great stay at the home, was great location, central to everything, and the host Jonathon was great. He allowed us to drop some things off and change at the house when we had a last minute change of plans and arrived a couple hours early of check in and he was very attentive during the stay and made sure everything was great. Hope to be back in further if available.
