Overall was a nice place to stay. Centerally located to almost anything you could want to do in Charelston and the surrounding area. Was pretty clean and had most of the basic supplies you would need for cooking.

The cottage is hidden from the main road so it was a lot quieter plus the trees around the property made taking pictures fun.

A cute small place in a great central location on James Island. We had a nice stay. The cottage has everything needed. We had issues with operating the cooling system but that could have just been user error, I'm not sure. We also weren't bothered enough by this to even attempt to reach out to the owners so I can't speakon response. I can say that we were contacted with check-in info by them and had no issues there. No real complaints and we'd certainly stay again. in the future.
