We stayed here for a month when we moved to Charleston while waiting to close on our house. Home is very nice and in a nicer, older neighborhood that has Oak Trees lining the streets on James Island. Location is great. Downtown is less than a 10 minute drive. Folly beach is 20 minutes. There are restaurants on James Island only minutes away. The Charleston Muni golf course is about 2 minutes away. House is well appointed and has everything you need for your stay. Propane grill on on nice deck out back. Two bikes and stuff for the beach in the garage. House is awesome for a dog as well since both front and backyards have a fence. Would definitely recommend this place. ##### Andrew W. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert and Sharon D. 24 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### St Michael's Place Loved our time at St Michael's Place.

Property was perfect for me and my family (two adults, three teens). Quiet residential neighborhood was convenient to Folly Beach, downtown Charleston, and everything else we could have wanted. Far enough from the beach to avoid the busyness of the tourist crowds. The house was also equipped with everything we needed in terms of cookware and cooking supplies (olive oil, spices, etc) which really cut down on how much needless shopping we needed to do. In our downtime it was a great, peaceful neighborhood to just take a walk through. ##### Michael W.

My Dog loved the fenced in yard to run and play. The 17 year old loved the sunroof and used it as her room while we were there. It has a come home feeling. We had no issues so we did not have to call the owner, but the day we left I called to let her know how much we enjoyed our stay and she was very nice. We will be back. ##### Stephanie J.

Trish's place was like having a home away from home. It was obvious that lots of love went into it and it was exactly the kind of place we needed for our stay. We were there for medical treatment at MUSC and Trish made our trip a little less stressful because of her understanding and generosity. I would highly recommend it if you prefer to be away from the tourist areas or are in need of a refuge for medical care. ##### Laurie B. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kate F. 12 Jan 2018 #### Good place for a family, lovely neighborhood We loved it ##### Kate F. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2017 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 7 Sept 2017 #### Amazing oasis close to everything! This house was perfect in every way. Although I travelled just by myself, it would be ideal for families with children. The layout of the house is very open, much bigger than in photos, with many choices for sleep and play areas and lots of parking. I brought two large dogs, one an escape artist, and both the front and back yards were secure and fun for them. It's great to be able to park right in the long driveway by the front gate for unloading the pups and luggage. The backyard goes back more than you see in photos, and the natural landscaping provided them a cool place to sniff and explore. The street is shady and only one block from famous Wapoo Drive, and very close to a lot of well known eateries. You could walk to many. Easy and fast to downtown Charleston and beaches. You could just tell that it would be awesome to live in this neighborhood. The best for me was that steps away is a perfect park to take dogs for shaded, leash- free play, as there is a fenced in portion of the park. To top it off, the most amazing dog park I've seen in my life is not far at James County Park, with its lake for dogs. Because it was so hot while I was there, Trish's central air was a godsend. Everything worked perfectly and was spotless, with ample provisions for cooking, cleaning, linens and entertainment. You can tell Trish takes a lot of care in her home and is thoughtful about details. She is very responsive to any questions. Thank you for a magical place to rest my road-weary bones and fall in love with Charleston!! Thank you for being a truly pet friendly place Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2017
