We had a wonderful stay in Summerville this month! The house was clean. The host was kind and accommodating to us throughout the visit. My pets loved having a most welcoming home where they were able to feel safe and taken care of in their home away from home. We will definitely visit again!
We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely home and it fit our needs perfectly. The added touch of welcoming fruit/cookies/waters were so nice to arrive to. Our teens enjoyed the pool table and games, and we all enjoyed the back porch and open large den. The location near downtown Summerville and Off Bacons Bridge by Harris Teeter and other shops was very convenient. Classy decor made the home so welcoming and beautiful. Thank you again for your hospitality!
Perfect house! So clean. The beds very extremely comfortable and the host responded quickly to questions. This is a great house in a beautiful neighborhood.
online communications was very good I had the opportunity to meet the owner when we arrived in town early and he was gracious enough to allow us to check in a couple hours early. the place was great, clean . charming Five STARS
Our family, who lives in various parts of the U.S., had all been wanting to get together for Thanksgiving for years and this turned out to be the perfect location. Bruce and Pam were exceptional hosts and went above and beyond our expectations to ensure our experience and stay created a lifetime of memories. Everyone in the family is already asking if we can stay here again for another holiday and it's certainly part of our future plans.
We visited for the weekend to visit our son who recently moved to Charleston. He lived relatively close but decided to stay with us in the house. The house was immaculately cleaned. Smelled so good and fresh. Nice touches everywhere. Very roomy and the beds were so comfortable. We took our dog. Nice grassy area for her walk around in. We did have a problem with the alarm code the first morning but i texted the owners and they were very responsive. Got a new code and we were all good. They are very prompt and willing to help with anything. Highly recommend this location.
