Awesome stay in Charleston, SC

We had the best time here! Our group of 7 ladies was quite a large size to accommodate in a central area and close to all the activities, and this spot was just the ticket. Thank you Miki, everything was perfect - we really had an awesome experience in Charleston (which was a first visit for us all). Highly recommend this property, great restaurants and breakfast spots nearby.

Perfect location in a historic home with modern conveniences. A great sound system in the main area, along with fans and white noise machines in each room, made for nice personal touches. We enjoyed sitting on the porch with our morning coffee, as well as in the evening for a nightcap. Look forward to returning!

About the host

Hosted by Miki and Chuck Waring

Host profile image
Miki and husband Chuck moved to the Charleston area 10 years ago. We both thoroughly enjoy spending time downtown and around the Charleston area.

Chuck is originally from Florida and Miki from West Virginia. Prior to moving to Charleston, they spent 20 years in the Washington, DC area. Miki in the health care marketing and management industry and Chuck in the printing and marketing solutions industry. Wanting to escape the hustle and bustle of the Metro area and the colder weather, we chose Charleston!

Since moving here we have been involved with restoring , renovating and managing downtown properties.

We love walking around the city looking at the various architecture designs of historical buildings, eating at the amazing restaurants, or taking in a festival or special event. On warm days you can find us on our boat with our two sons Ryan and Alec or at the beach. And of course, there are the Citadel football and basketball games. which we can't miss since Chuck is a Citadel alumni.

Why they chose this property

We fall deeper in love with Charleston every day and want you to experience the charm of the city while staying at St. Philip Place. Our renovation of this property was a labor of love and our goal was to transform it into a cozy comfortable home with modern appliances while still maintaining the historical Charleston feel.

What makes this property unique

If you like technology, our place offers a state of the art sound system and smart TV's compatible with airplay and video streaming services such as Netflix, YouTube, Hulu, HBO etc. We also have wired the home with CAT 6 which provides more reliable, faster and secure internet.
