Clean, Comfortable & Quiet
Great place to stay while visiting Charleston, with easy access to local attractions. The place was very clean, with thoughtful amenities and accommodations for everything we needed. The fire pit was very nice for end-of-the-day relaxing and morning coffee. Host was responsive with any questions.

Cute little stay!
Can’t rave enough about the host and how quick response times were while I was dealing with a friend event and my husband was trying to get everything situated for my daughter and dog! The location was perfect for us being 5 min from our friends that live 10 min from folly beach and the updates are very cute in the home. Everything was clean and had the necessities needed for a weekend trip.

Great area
Great area near downtown Charleston, far enough away too. Quiet neighborhood. Place was clean and exactly how advertised.
Very lovely appointments to the property.
Comfortable bed and bathroom was lovely.
We had cocktails outside at the fire pit and read on the veranda.
We were interested in why the area was called Swamp Angel and it would have been nice to have literature on that- either a thrush or a civil war era cannon.
