This place was above my expectations! Clean, simple yet beautiful decor, and I can’t begin to tell you how good I slept!! The neighborhood was super quiet and I felt safe enough to leave my 14 year old there while I did a quick grocery trip. Close to shops and the beach! Would definitely stay again!

We really enjoyed our stay. We loved the location as it was just a short drive to Folly Beach as well as to downtown Charleston. The apartment was very clean with updated features. Tom was a great communicator to get us set for our visit. My wife has fragrance sensitivity and this place totally met our needs. We would definitely come back here. It is A

Great place for couples or family with 1 or 2 children. Fenced area for dog but also a walkable neighborhood with sidewalks. Place is centrally located. Very convenient to Folly Beach and John’s Island. Also close to downtown Charleston Quiet neighborhood. House was very clean, modern and kitchen was well equipped. Check in and check out was seamless. Host was readily available if needed
