Perfect stay!
Sara‘s house was meticulously clean, very conveniently located (10 minutes to the beach, 10 minutes to downtown, restaurants within walking distance), the “busy “road was never an issue, it was dead quiet at night. We had a great time in Charleston, and at Folly Beach, and will definitely be back!

Perfect for our infant son
We had a mini family vacation in Charleston with our 18 month old son. It was so nice that there was a pack n play and portable high chair and we didn’t have to pack ours. It wasn’t too far from downtown and it worked well for our visit!

Great house and location!
We loved our stay! House was clean and no more than 10-15 minutes from everything Charleston has to offer! We really appreciated the fresh eggs and the pack and play for our 5 month old! The fire pit made for a great way to end the day. Would highly recommend!

Loved this sweet spot. Perfect for my family of 4. The little extras like coffee, tissues and fresh eggs made the experience extra special. It’s nice to travel and not have to pack everything single thing. The backyard was a little oasis.

Visit to Low Country
We enjoyed our visit to Charleston and surrounding low country. This house location is just across the river from Charleston and also 15 minutes to Folly Beach (without traffic). The house was clean, the kitchen was well equipped with oven, toaster oven, microwave, full size fridge, and big sink. We walked to the nearby grocery store and grilled one night. The house has a fun backyard with lights, canal-like waterway, fire pit, gardens, gas grill, and even chickens. Sarah, the host, was very communicative about everything.

Wonderful respite!
Wonderful, relaxing and accommodating. Enjoyed all the amenities including the enjoying the chickens in the backyard and enjoying their eggs in the morning. 4 stars for location, due to proximity to downtown, beaches, fine restaurants. If you are a light sleeper and wish to sleep in, the traffic may disturb your slumber. We hope to be back soon.
