Property was comfortable we have never stayed where we shared with the owners but they were sure to make sure everything was great! We enjoyed fishing off the dock!

Thank you for staying in our completely separate and independent apartment that is built attached to the house.
Perfect spot to meet our needs. Enjoyed having the water view and enjoyed the kayak on the creek. Comfortable apartment - especially the bed and couch! When there was an issue outside of owners control, it was handled quickly and responsively. Great stay!!

This was a great stay located in a beautiful and historical neighborhood! Everything was just as described. It is a beautiful setting and the inside is beautifully updated with a very comfortable bed and bedding (lots of nice pillows). We would definitely stay again.

We love our guests. Thank you for choosing our place.
Lovely, quiet, comfortable, spacious apartment with beautiful views of the marshland extending to the Wando River, and Spanish moss-draped live oaks next to Molasses Creek, where you can actually watch the tide come in and go out. Relax on your private deck or take out the kayaks or paddle boards for a closer look at the Lowcountry waterways. We saw egrets, pelicans, crabs, fish, and a curious little anole.The apartment is very well provisioned and Laurie and George are very responsive hosts. A delightful place to stay!

This is a beautiful quiet neighborhood, overlooking nice marshlands and inner coastal waterway. We were looking for a relaxing week that also offered proximity to a lot of options for plantations, museums, dining, hiking, etc. it was a perfect blend of relaxation and activities for our week’s stay. Unit is on upper floor. There is good solid outdoor staircase to traverse up a 2-landing flight of stairs. Host was very attentive, having provided very clear instructions, directions and suggestions for our visit. We plan to return to this location when we again visit the Charleston/Mt Pleasant area.

The best things about this property: it was VERY clean and well outfitted with higher end appliances and good quality kitchen equipment. The dock access for fishing and crabbing was great. The location is convenient for everything in the area, just minutes from Downtown Charleston and close to the area's beaches. What was not clear from the listing: this apartment is in the back of the owner's residence and they do live there. Not a deal-breaker for us, but they were present and visible during our stay. They were not intrusive, but they were regularly present. Check in required texting with the owner and meeting to gain access to the rental, which was awkward and not disclosed prior to booking. We have used VRBO at least once a year for many years now and have never had to meet an owner to get access to a property. It felt a little like an interview to see if we were going to be trouble. I had decided not to leave a review, but they reached out by email and asked "because I have been told by Vrbo that I need more guest reviews or they will not promote our property. We do need to be seen by travelers. Will you please leave a review for us? Thank you." Botton line-this is a great rental option for a quiet couple without children as long as it's doesn't bother you for the owners to be right there during your stay.

Thanks for your extremely positive comments.

Thank you. We think our views are amazing too! I never stop being awed at the beauty. Hope to see you again !
We had a great stay at property. Since it was just my husband and I, we had the side apartment which met all our needs. Nice amenities and a big comfortable bed. This was such a quiet relaxing location and we enjoyed walking down to the water and through the beautiful neighborhood. Perfect location to everything we wanted to do.

We strive to exceed expectations in cleanliness and comfort, and we are continually fixing and upgrading or repairing where needed. We recently repainted 2 bedrooms, replaced 2 twin beds with 2 doubles, ordered a new outdoor Hot Tub, and got a new King mattress for the master bedroom. it is important to continually upkeep and maintain a house to strive for excellent ratings. Thank you for enjoying the house.
This is the third time we have stayed at The Big Chill House - it's just the perfect place to relax. Beautiful, clean, wonderful owners and views of the water. We're coming back again in February!

Why they chose this property
We personally attend to every detail. George supervises cleaning. We live on the property and treat this with extra loving care. We were drawn to this unique waterfront property with the southern feeling and privacy, with location, location, location. Being near the beaches and downtown makes this a perfect spot.
What makes this property unique
Truly a "perfect central location". Gorgeous surroundings plus the dock. This property is encircled by water and marsh, and has water views of the creeks, the rivers, and the marshes. The water views and the tidal changes really make this property spectacular. It is all about the fabulous waterfront location, the ebb and flow of the tides, the natural wildlife, and the privacy, combined with a comfortable savvy home. What a way to enjoy Historic Charleston, the Beaches and the marshes! The location can't be beat, as is evidenced by all the new mega million dollar homes in the area.
