Well needless to say we ended up leaving 3 hours after we got there. I wish I could post pictures. I think only thing that was done after the last stay of people of the 4th of July. They only changed the beds and put out clean towels. When we first got there we went to check the inside out. The place was absolutely disgusting, it had bed bug and roaches. This house should be condemned. Also I would advise when you post picture of the place to post pictures of the surroundings of the property. All the pistures that was posted were fake.

We stayed at this house over the 4th of July weekend. When we arrived, the area right outside of the house had tall grass and several pieces of trash outside. Assessing more of the outside, the grill was mostly rusted, some of the outdoor patio furniture was torn and unsteady, and there were areas in the yard with several pieces of animal feces.Upon entry into the house, the first thing we noticed was the storm door handle was broken. To our surprise, the furniture in the sun room mirrored the outdoor furniture with rips and holes rendering them unsafe to sit. Exploring further, the bathrooms were filthy. There were dead bugs in the window seal, a few embedded in the rugs with stains, and tubs and showers were not clean. Unfortunately, we had to clean them ourselves with bleach and other cleaning products to sanitize them. Additionally, the downstairs bathroom leaked water which extended into the hallway outside.Furthermore, we were unable to control the thermostat ourselves. We had to contact the owner and ask him to reduce the temperature from his end. Another concern to address was the occupancy. It was listed that the home accommodated up to 15 people to which we had 12 in our reservation. We did not have enough towels for everyone so the owner suggested that we wash and reuse amongst ourselves. However, the laundry facilities in the home required money to even access. We understood it was an older home, but it was not at all well-kept. This was far from the guest experience we hoped for especially given the rate to reserve.

Location rating is only because of condition of neighborhood, otherwise would be a 5-star House has some minor problems (i.e. upstairs bathroom drain clogged). Communication with owner never happened, no need. Rating requires entry. House has many levels, many of them only 2-3 inches. Proved to be a problem for me due to age (80+) and restricted mobility.

There was plenty of room for everyone in our party to have space to chill and relax. The property is located on an unpaved dirt road, with abandoned and rusted vehicles, and roosters to serenade you all day. The home is not wheelchair accessible and the first levels (there are many weird steps and stairs on the "ground" floor) have tripping hazards. Pay close attention to the transitions between rooms and the ground floor toilet requires a step up to access. The cleaning could have been better. The beds were rather uncomfortable (maybe I'm just old). Also, keep the gate closed... there's bears out in them thar woods.

Nice space for everyone to spread out. House had room for everyone but a little difficult for my elderly guests to move freely from room to room due to floors having uneven areas that would be a tripping hazard for them.

The house is located in a very sketchy location and on a dirt road with mud holes...don't take a clean car. We were a little concerned with our safety. The house is full of tripping hazards. The kitchen is not very well equipped and the range had some issues...be careful with that. The toaster did not work.

I booked the home as a farewell trip for my brother he’s in the navy and going over seas. Neighborhood was a lil off but it wasn’t anything we weren’t used to. The house is at the end of the road fenced in and private. Once we parked and got out we went inside and looked around, everything looked nice and clean, found our beds and took our stuff inside. My mom noticed a book sitting on the table and started reading it and was shocked to read that someone was living with us but we never heard anything or saw anyone not once. They may not have been there or were just extra quiet, either way it didn’t stop us from having a good time. Extra beds came in handy for if we didn’t want to sleep in the beds. The only other thing we didn’t like was the floors upstairs they need to be replace asap the room I was in with my kids the floor sinks in some spots and is to high in other. Other than that the house was perfect, definitely would book again if we ever go back to Charleston.
