Weekend stay in Summerville
We had a great stay at the Tea Cup Cottage. It shares the property with the owner’s house, but the cottage is completely detached and very private. The cottage is newly built, very well appointed and clean, and very comfortable. Easy walk to downtown and everything historic Summerville has to offer, but also a full kitchen with the necessities to cook in should you choose to. We highly recommend the Tea Cup Cottage!
