Nice place and close by for son’s graduation. Very close to Parris island. Slight snafu with check in but we got it rectified and all was well. Much better and priced better than hotels in the area. Close by to shops and restaurants.

We stayed here for my son’s Marine graduation. It was so close to base - 7 minute drive. It was also close to shops & restaurants. The house was super cute and was perfect for my family of 6. Joanna was super nice and so accommodating. I would recommend this place a hundred times over.

Great property

Everything about the listing is 100% accurate. Had a little electrical hiccup in one of the rooms but the owner had a great response time and took care of it immediately. Definitely would stay there again and 100% recommended

The home is very spacious, clean and in a quiet neighborhood; very easy to locate with lots of shops within close proximity. It was too open for my comfort. The lack of blinds in the dining area and back door provided no form of privacy. The shower had a missing door, there was no rack for bath towels or hand towels. There were no rugs for the bathroom sinks and lighting was poor/dim. Additionally, there was no extra supply of paper towels (whichever one was available was also done). The cabinet door for the sink was on a half hinge. The available blankets in the living room had a musty odor. I asked the cleaning lady, who came by to bring trash bags (after I communicated with the host Joanna) to have them laundered since the property has no washer; but they were never returned. The house is beautiful and well situated but needs a few minor touches to bring it up to a RETREAT LEVEL.

Liked: Check-in
The place was pleasant, but it needed some extra cleaning. We had to buy toilet paper when the one roll that was left for our family of six for a four day stay ran out. Additionally, there was no washer or dryer, as mentioned in the listing, which could have been used to rewash the only six towels and wash clothes that were left for us. We also had to buy garbage bags for the trash cans. Despite these minor inconveniences, we had a good stay overall.

The house was cute and the beds were comfortable. The house definitely needs some maintenance. There are parts of the floor that are cracked and broken leaving sharp edges on the wood. We only had one shower door and one of the closet doors was off the tracks. Most of the exterior doors are difficult to open and the backyard is completely unusable. The house was also not clean when we arrived. I had to sweep the floor before we could walk around and there were stains on the walls especially in the bathroom. Found old food in the couch and a giant hairball at the front hallway with part of some fake eyelashes. One of the neighbors has several chickens which were wandering freely around the neighborhood. The roosters started crowing around 5am making it difficult to sleep.
