This is quite simply our home away from home. It is spotless, organized with just the right amenities and the hosts are very responsive. Our family is so thankful we found this Charleston treasure that is ideally located close to everything we need and central to all of the activities we plan each trip. We cannot wait to return!

This two-bedroom bungalow was absolutely gorgeous. The owners must be interior designers because everything that could be done to make each room in their house perfect - was done. My wife and I were there during a very HOT weekend, and (thankfully) the AC worked flawlessly. The backyard was HUGE and came with cornhole and bocce games - with plenty of room to play. There is a large covered patio area with outdoor seating for six. Their outdoor furniture was the most comfortable I've ever sat on. They also had an outdoor mounted TV under the covered area, but it was too hot out, so I didn't try to use it. Before arrival, the owner was kind enough to let us know that they had a fig tree producing fruit, so as soon as we got to the property, my wife picked several of them and made us a snack. They were great! A large flat-screen TV is mounted in the living room above the fireplace, and there are TVs in each bedroom. All TVs were on Dish Network. The kitchen was very well appointed with every appliance we could have wanted. My wife especially loved the gas range. Make sure to press the button on the back of the range before you cook - you will be blown away. The location was within easy walking distance to five local bars/restaurants. And there are three large supermarkets within a five-minute drive. The location of the house is between downtown Charleston and Folly Beach, so for me it was perfect. We're big fans of this property, and we'll be back!

My husband, pups and I loved staying at this rental. The owners were very accommodating and great about communicating with us. They really went above and beyond on our stay, and we are beyond thankful for everything! Perfect stop to travel to all the beaches and downtown! You also have great spots near you within walking distance. We loved it!

So enjoyed our stay. This home has an accurate description, convenient location, easy check -in, is immaculate, and very pup friendly. Adding in the little special touches by the owners, this easily became one of our top rental experiences. Thank you for sharing your sweet bungalow!

We absolutely loved our stay here! The house is beautifully decorated and welcoming, the beds have the luxury feel of a hotel, and the backyard is simply incredible! What a retreat! All of your basic necessities besides food are provided (they even had plenty of Keurig coffee pods for you!). The hosts were gracious enough to put out toys for our 1.5yr old and he loved the open floor plan of the house as well as the huge deck and yard. You are truly 15min or less (and that’s accounting for traffic) from anywhere in Charleston and a stone’s throw or short walk from many restaurants in the Avondale neighborhood of West Ashley. The neighborhood is quiet and cute and we loved the bell tower from the church across the street. The backyard is idyllic and it is the perfect place to relax amidst the busyness of sight-seeing, play games in the evening, or to have a cup of coffee in the morning. The bathroom tiles were even heated which was the most fun and luxurious surprise! We loved everything about staying here and would stay here again in a heartbeat! A simply wonderful and perfect place to stay when visiting the area.

Great property in a great neighborhood very close to downtown but also located in the middle of the drives between Folly Beach and Isle of Palms. Highly recommend! Very clean and great communication from hosts! A great property to bring a furry friend as well with the fenced in yard!

This house was perfect for a long weekend away with our two kids (1 and 3). The house was cozy and had plenty of space and a shocking amount of storage and closet space! Everything was spotlessly clean and all of the linens (bedding and sheets) felt extremely high-quality. Beautiful kitchen and bathroom! Huge backyard and lovely covered deck to enjoy while the kids could play outside! Avondale area is a great spot to stay; lots to do right around the house, convenient to multiple grocery stores, just across the bridge from downtown. Owners were incredibly accommodating and kind, they even provided a high chair and left out some toys for our kids. 10/10 recommend and will be back!

Truly a joyful experience from start to finish. Communication was quick, warm and welcoming. This is a very comfortable and safe home away from home with everything needed for work and play, in a peaceful setting that’s walkable to a lot of fun places. The modern amenities in a traditional home are so well done. And off-street parking is a bonus to help make quick trips to downtown, etc. a breeze. We look forward to going back!

This adorable home in Charleston couldn’t have been more perfect for our family and fur baby. From the minute you walk inside, you immediately feel the love and warmth that went into putting this home together to accommodate guests. The beds and pillows couldn’t have been more comfortable and we all slept like a dream. This home was so convenient to everything in Charleston. We will definitely be back to stay here, and would recommend this lovely home to anyone!!

We truly enjoyed our stay in Charleston. This was an ideal location to get to different parts of the city and still have a neighborhood feel. The home was the perfect size for us and the attention to detail from decor to functionality did not go unnoticed. Everything from a beautiful kitchen to high-end linens to ample plugs where you need them. The fenced in backyard was great for our pup and the patio was nice to be able to sit and relax. We highly recommend and hope to be back again.

Our stay in Charleston was wonderful! This VRBO has become our home away from home. A perfect location and wonderful hosts who put thought into getting the big and little things just right. Our family of four loves the house and all its amenities. What's more, its centrally located for everything we love to do. An easy commute to the beach, downtown, historic attractions and more. We cannot wait to return!

The property was all said it was and even more. My wife absolutely love it. It was a home we would look to buy. The hosts left their numbers to contact them if we needed anything. We didn't bother them. But we'll be back to continue our search. And we'll definitely reach out to them. The property was beautiful.

Amazing location, quite but close to everything; big yard, covered porch, and the place is modern and Uber comfortable. Had a relaxing dinner with 8 guests on porch, followed by a short stroll to a great hand scooped ice cream joint a few blocks away!

A beautiful home in quiet neighborhood with plenty of restaurants and shopping nearby. If you prefer to eat at home, you’re in luck, everything you need is there. Open a few cabinet doors, look in a couple of drawers and you’ll find all you need, just supply the food! This home is immaculate with countless amenities. A fenced in yard for your pet (and guests) a large deck with plenty of seating, TV’s wherever you choose to relax (including the deck), music throughout the house (connect your own source via Bluetooth), 5 star hotel quality bedding, sheets and towels... to list just a few. The bathroom is clean beyond expectations and includes shampoo, body wash etc. Owners Mike and Heather are gracious and accommodating and have prepared and equipped their house to assure a pleasant experience. I’m sure I missed something but whatever it is, expect a delightful surprise. Definitely worth more than the five stars the rating system allows.

Home is located one block off main thoroughfare that provides access to all shopping needs and is a 10 minute ride to historic Charleston. A quiet neighborhood, and a very nicely appointed home with high-end appliances, thoughtful interior, decorations, and comfortable furnishings. Highly recommend, no reservations.

If I could give 6 stars I would. The home was beautiful and a very short walk to a coffee shop, some lovely restaurants, and a grocery store. The home was perfect and the baby amenities provided were perfect for our 9 month old. Quick drive to downtown Charleston and mount pleasant. Would absolutely love to stay here again!!

We had a wonderful 8-night stay at this property. It was a great location for our home base as we explored all around Charleston. The neighborhood is tree lined and quiet, yet close to restaurants and shopping (including Whole Foods), plus it's easy to get to all the beaches, plantations, downtown, etc. The kitchen is gorgeous and well equipped (we cooked meals). The house is beautifully renovated and nicely furnished. Beds were comfortable. We especially loved relaxing on the large back porch with the gas fire pit (the backyard is big and private with lots of trees). The heated tile and mirror in the bathroom were great extras. The hosts were fantastic-very communicative. They sent us clear instructions for everything and were invested in us having a great stay. It was easy check in and out with keyless entry. We really loved staying here-felt like home! We highly recommend this property!

My husband and I had a great experience right from the start with the owners and there was nothing we needed to do but enjoy this beautiful home. It was a brick home in an older, tree lined community. For a rental property that accepts dogs - it was very clean, modern and tastefully decorated. Even though we were close to Savannah Hwy (Rt. 17), The neighborhood overall was quiet and we even enjoyed the hourly bell chimes (which did not ring at nighttime) from the Church across the street. We discovered some nice shops and Antique stores within the Avondale/ Windermere neighborhood. This is the closest we stayed to Charleston and it was such a breeze to drive into Charleston which was only 15 minutes away. While we didn’t take advantage of some of the additional niceties, we were impressed that there was a heated bathroom floor, music surround system inside and out, and an outdoor tv and fire pit. The backyard was such a surprise as it was really huge and fenced which was great for our Bernese Mountain Dog. The weather was comfortable in the high 60’s- 70’s and we enjoyed reading and lounging on the expansive porch and deck.
Would stay here again - even our family who came to visit us were super impressed with the home and yard!

We were very pleased that the property was tidy and comfortable. We did not end up, traveling with our dog, but will absolutely bring her on our next stay. The property is extremely well-suited for our dog!

What a great house and neighborhood. The house was just as pictured and described. When we weren't out exploring we spent our time on the back deck watching tv, playing cards, eating, and just hanging out. We walked to a couple of restaurants and shops that were very close. The neighborhood was beautiful and very quiet. Would absolutely stay here again.

Location is very convenient. Not far from anything you want to explore. Property was perfect for for our Lab to run around and play. Nice neighborhood. House was clean. Mike and Heather were great to deal with. They put my mind at ease since my wife and I were driving from Michigan to Charleston just a couple days after tropical storm Ian hit the coast. They updated me about what was going on and it was truly appreciated. Overall good experience. Charleston was great and so was this property.

This was our first visit to Charleston and we were very happy with our house choice. The location was perfect as we were a quick ride to all the different areas we wanted to check out. We really couldn't believe how close we were to downtown, but then we could go back to our quiet house and back deck to enjoy takeout and just relax after a big day of exploring.

We had a fantastic three days in the cutest house with an amazing outdoor space a a gorgeous kitchen. I can honestly say there was nothing we did not like about the house. The only thing we wish we had was a half bathroom. Location was perfect. We did not want to be downtown, but close enough…

The VRBO was an adorable home and ideal for our family during our stay in Charleston. It provided all the amenities we needed and more and was spotlessly clean. The host was responsive and made the whole process from check-in to check-out frictionless. We can’t wait to visit again!
