Girls Charleston Open weekend
Perfect location in walking distance to restaurants and 10-15 min drive to downtown Charleston and Credit One Stadium on Daniel Island. Two rooms have two beds (and another small room has a trundle) so perfect for a friends get away - so no sharing which is often the case!

Perfect location, lots of space
The house worked great for our family! Everyone had their own bed and room to spread out. We enjoyed playing games in the sun room, challenging each other in a game of pool, cooking our Thanksgiving dinner with ample space in the kitchen, and not having to shift cars around when someone wanted to leave.John was a wonderful and very accommodating host!

Wonderful vacation
The house was fantastic and John was a great host. Everything was exactly as we expected and very clean, comfortable and organized. The location was amazing. A quiet street lined with overhanging live oak trees draped with Spanish moss gave it a real South Carolina feel and charm. Also, being a 5 minute walk to Shem Creek with about a dozen restaurants and a beautiful boardwalk along the water and through the marsh was a real bonus. Definitely worth a stay here and I hope to be back!

Great home and perfect location
My sisters and I enjoyed our stay here. There were 5 of us and plenty of room to spread out. Coffee in the sun room every morning with a bonus fox visiting most mornings. We explored Historic Charleston, Fort Sumter, Boone Hall Plantation and Isle of Palms Beach. This property was in the perfect location for us to easily see everything we had planned. Walking to the Stem Creek area was an added bonus for us. Sunset walks on the boardwalk and nice restaurants! The home was very clean, well equipped with everything we needed. Just a lovely home! Nice quiet neighborhood too!
