We spent 4 days here in April. Our stay was great! Super clean and comfortable, it was a wonderful place to start and end our days after exploring Charleston. Would highly recommend!
This cottage on the grounds of the owners’ home was a wonderful, quiet, neighborhood oasis after a busy day in the city. You are provided a private entrance with courtyard to enjoy. The cottage met all of our needs and is in walking distance of grocery, shopping and restaurants- or a quick Uber to downtown, mt pleasant and other areas. Wonderful walking path through neighborhood, as well. Hosts were excellent communicators and extremely helpful in planning our trip!
This was the perfect little place for us to take a long weekend in Charleston. The space was clean, the location was convenient and the hospitality was wonderful.
The cottage was great for us. We were in town to attend a football game at the Citadel. The location was convenient to everything. Will and Tricia provide the small details that make for a pleasant stay like coffee pods, shampoo, and even a bottle of wine! They are wonderful, gracious hosts! Peace and Love!
Great location, close to everything. Private and quiet. Comfortable bed with room to move around. Hosts were very gracious and left us to ourselves. Would stay again.
The cottage is all we needed. Very clean and comfy. Bed was good. No complaints. Very quiet and private. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

We had a great stay in the cottage. The location was fantastic. It was an easy drive to downtown and the beach. Parking was off street in a private driveway that was very convenient. The cottage itself was well appointed. We were surprised with the bottle of wine and the stocked coffee bar. Would stay again!
The cottage was comfortable and cozy and offered the ultimate privacy. It was perfect for a few day getaway. in Charleston. Close to lots of restaurants, afor a
This property is well decorated, clean, and has anything you could possibly want to cook a meal if you're not to busy eating the amazing restaurants in the area. Close to everything and in a gorgeous neighborhood. The hosts are quick to respond to any quails and it is very private.
The cottage was quaint and perfect for us and the dog. The location was lovely for walking and it was easy to get to all the tourist activities we wanted. Being practically on the bike path was a bonus for us. Our week there was very enjoyable.
The space was just right for us. It was extremely clean, close Charleston and beaches and quiet. It had everything we needed for a wonderful stay! We would highly recommend!
Great location. Great communication/instructions. Wonderful suggestions for local restaurants and sightseeing. Studio cottage just as advertised. Lots of very thoughtful extras (full size ironing board, toiletries, selection of coffee pods). Wine and crackers was a wonderful surprise! Wouldn't hesitate to book again!!!
I had a nice relaxing stay at the studio cottage. Perfect for a couple and close to downtown. I was visiting my son at the Citadel. Located in a safe neighborhood and the hosts were accommodating and super friendly. I only had one issue and that was the mold in the split AC/heating unit. I left a night early due to the issue. I brought it to the hosts attention and they were not aware of the mold and were going to take care of it before the next guests booked. Cute and private and would def rent again.
This is perfect for a couple getaway. Great location! We had one little hiccup due to a storm that affected the power supply to the AC unit and they addressed it immediately. 10/10
