Ideal for a family escapade to one of the most historic and charming cities in the south, 243 Rutledge B is the perfect mix of convenience, comfort and an unbeatable location. Inside, the homey décor will greet you as soon as you step inside. It'll surely make you feel right at home even though you're about to experience the vacation of a lifetime. Boasting a fully-equipped kitchen with all the appliances you could need to prepare everything from a full-course meal to a quick snack on the go and a washer/dryer on-site, this home away from home is sure to provide your friends and family with the best lodging experience.

This getaway is conveniently located in Charleston's Historic Cannonborough-Elliottborough neighborhood, a safe neighborhood where guests can walk around at any time of the day without any concerns. There are a lot of students in the area as the apartment is close to the Medical University of South Carolina. Even though you have a fully equipped kitchen at home, being surrounded by amazing dining options is a clear temptation and there's no one to blame! A must-visit while in Charleston is The Battery, a jaw-dropping promenade that is the perfect spot for a relaxing stroll and gives you the opportunity to admire beautiful homes and Southern-style mansions. One-and-a-half miles away is the Historic Charleston City Market, the perfect place to experience famous southern charm. There you can buy local foods, toys, souvenirs, clothes, leather goods, and so much more.

We loved our stay! The kitchen is basic (but we ate out most of the weekend!!!), and the bathroom is small, but it was still lovely.

Convenient and spacious
Nice neighborhood (loved walkability to local coffee shop and restaurants), easy to get to all sightseeing. Loved the multiple spaces to relax. Small, older bathroom (to be expected) and blinds let bright outside street lamp in all night (only reason for 4/5 stars) also quite a trek up the stairs in the heat! It was just two of us but would have been a good spot for a small group! I’d would stay here again.

Spent time at Folly Beach then to Charleston. Charleston is beautiful. House was nice. Kitchen could use a few more basic things and bathroom is extremely small, but overall a nice place. Worked well for us.

Charming
Beautiful apartment! Location was also wonderful. It’s an old house and all neighbors are close. Nighttime is kind of loud…you can hear people talking outside and cars drive fast. Literally the only thing I would complain about is needing locks on all entry doors, including from the hallway. One lock on the back porch door and one lock on the front door at the bottom of the stairs. One night, we definitely heard someone on the back porch fiddling with the doorknob. So that was scary.

Small but cute
Parking lot, bathroom and side bedroom were super small for our 4-person group, but manageable. Living room and dining room were spacious and comfortable. Kitchen is not well-stocked for cooking, but Xiao Bao is a two-minute walk away and absolutely amazing.

Charming Older Home
Cute older home, with lots of charm which is what we wanted. Close to everything. Bathroom is very tiny, but wasn’t an issue for us. I would just recommend bringing extra blankets and pillows.

We loved the old, elegant style of the townhouse. Great dining and living room spaces. Bathroom was very small and bed arrangement was awkward for a group but would suit better for a family with children. The two queen size beds are in one room and the day bed is in a smaller adjoining room. House is in need of some repair but overall enjoyed our stay.

Comfy, cozy, and quaint home!
The location was wonderful, the house was clean and it fit all 6 of us. The parking was a little tight, but it was very easy to just coordinate with the other Vacasa rental downstairs. We had the shower back up during our stay but within 30 minutes someone was there to fix it and had no issues after that! It is a charming home and had all of the amenities we could ask for! Highly recommend this place if you are looking for a quaint and cozy place this is definitely a great one.

Great location
Had a girls trip and the apartment was in a great location. The apartment had an ant problem which then resulted to ants in the bed I was sleeping in. Other than the ants great place. We had an amazing time in Charleston.

Great place for girls (3 adults, 1 teen, 1 preteen)
The home was so lovely and spacious. The location was safe and quiet. We loved the private steps in the back, as well as the balcony. Only area that could use some work was the bathtub drainage (very slow) and the water pressure (very light) . Other than that, we were very pleased.

Spacious Apartment
This property was really nice. It is an older home and had some leaning to it like some of the other reviews have mentioned but I didn’t feel unsafe in the home. Checkin was super easy and they keep in contact with you throughout your stay. Having a washer a dryer was also nice! The apartment was spacious and was pretty clean. We did notice some weird stains on the couch and curtains. It also has carpet in the bedrooms which are stained. For being such an older home it was a lovely place to stay. It does have stairs that are steep but we didn’t have a problem with it. Charming neighborhood with some walkable restaurants. It is about a 30minute walk down to the main streets but is a very quick Uber drive. Overall we had a wonderful time and I would book this place again.

Roomy and comfortable
Beautiful spacious apartment close to Great restaurants and walkable to both MUSC and the VA hospital, as well as the historic area of downtown Charleston. Very clean and well appointed. I found the check in process a bit confusing as I got emails from both VRBO and Vacasa but didn't realize you actually had to go to their website to check in for entrance instructions. After that initial confusion, it was very easy to stay in touch with them via text message. Highly recommend.

Very cozy and safe
This space was better than we thought! Beautiful, charming and cozy. It’s way bigger than the pictures look. The porch was so nice to sit out on in the morning. The location is amazing. I felt safe walking around to shops and restaurants with my baby. The Vacasa team was very responsive when I needed something. I love all the big windows and tall ceilings. The furniture is comfy as well. Just a 1 min walk to Xoa Boa and Bad bunnies coffee, a short walk to the veggie bin, and close to island provisions too. Love this spot! I even walked to king street which was a longer trek but definitely doable.

Great location and a charming house but...
This house is very charming and in a wonderful neighborhood and was very clean.However,it needs some tic from the owner.Lots of little things that could really be fixed with a little time and effort.Things like pealing paint, doors that don't close, cracks in the caulking around sinks,a wobbly toilet and loose and crooked curtain rods.These are all little things that could and should be easily fixed, especially for the price that is being charged to stay there.This really could be a fantastic place to stay with a little elbow grease.

Liked: Listing accuracy
Few issues
This could be a cute place however you can't make people comfortable with a few decor items from Homegoods. The overall condition of this property is deplorable. It's a very old home that has gotten no meaningful updates including structural. One of the two bedrooms has a sloping floor and a crack in the ceiling, I can't really say I felt safe there. The listing says two sofa beds, there was only one so my husband was forced to sleep on a trundle. Not fun. The only bathroom has the toilet literally four inches from the sink so both are hard to use. It's the classic example of the vacation rentals owned for income only not to make people comfortable. The location was good, and it was clean. I would not stay here again.

Long weekend
This house was perfect for our long weekend! It was close enough to king street for a (long) walk but still quiet where we were staying. The house was clean and had plenty of sleeping arrangements, just be prepared for a tight squeeze in the bathroom!
