We intially rented the cottage but had to move to unit A because our dates changed due to a tropical storm which we were totally okay with! It’s a beautiful space, but not conducive for families with young children. The beds were high and crib is only available for an additional fee and requested 48 hours in advance but that was my fault not seeing that in the fine print. The sound traveled clearly from unit to unit being that it was an old building and we were on the lower level it made for a lot of noise from the renter upstairs and even woke us up one morning it was so loud. Not much we could do about that, but just a note! That’s one of the main reasons I originally booked the cottage. And we ran out of hot water our second night. We showered one kid super quick to wash off their body and had no hot water for us adults! Again, super cute for adults looking for a good time and a place to sleep, but with everything I already stated and the location being about a 25-30min walk to downtown to walk with kids is too much. We wouldn’t stay here again with young children!

The Rainbow Cottage was beautiful, clean, cozy, and spacious. It had all of the amenities you would need and then some. It was located in an amazing neighborhood in the downtown Charelston area which made it central to everything we wanted to do.

We loved this property!! It had all the amenities that we needed and it was in a great location. There were cute little bakeries, sandwich shops, restaurants within walking distance so it was perfect if we didn't want to drive everywhere. Honestly, one of the main reasons that we picked this property was the designated parking space for the cottage. We did not want to deal with on-street parking. We will definitely rent this location again if we come back to Charleston ... maybe in the fall when it's not so humid .. haha. Thanks for a great experience in this property!

When you stay at this place, you will be spoiled forever for rentals. This place met every single desire I had. I am speechless with how clean, how roomy/spacious, and how well furnished it was. If I ever go to South Carolina again, I will be staying at this place. PERFECTION! A+ BRAVO!

Our family loved our stay at the Rainbow Cottage. It was a great location to see everything downtown Charleston has to offer. Our teenage daughters loved the large bathroom with double sinks and both beds were very comfortable. Thanks for a great visit!

This home was nicely furnished and very comfortable. Nicely laid out for us and our adult son’s stay in Charleston. We love good food and it’s in walking distance of Chubby Fish and Xio bao biscuit, two of our favorites. We also walked to Marion Square and King street from the house and also got the city Line bikes nearby one day. House is nicely stocked and had all of the amenities that we needed.
