Experience the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure at The Farmhouse – where cherished memories begin!

Space Details
Step into our charming farmhouse cottage and discover a spacious living room, thoughtfully designed with a daybed that effortlessly transforms into two twin beds, perfect for bringing along your little ones or accommodating an extra guest. Retreat to the private bedroom just down the hall, featuring a luxurious king-size bed with a coil-wrapped spring core and a gel-infused mattress, nestled on a stunning nailhead charcoal blue linen frame. Whether you're in the mood for a relaxing show or a movie night, enjoy the view on our LED Smart TVs (50 inches in the living room, 32 inches in the bedroom). The bathroom offers a lavish walk-in shower, plush towels, toiletries, and a hair dryer.

The spacious kitchen is equipped with a fridge, oven, toaster, microwave, coffee maker, and a laundry station with a stackable washer/dryer set. Gather around the large farmhouse-inspired dining table for delightful meals

Our aim is to make your stay effortless, so leave the little things to us and immerse yourself in a quiet retreat.

Indulge in the beauty of the outdoors from your private porch swing, where you can sip on wine or our famous sweet tea (fun fact: sweet tea originated here in Summerville) while enjoying the summer breezes. If you're here on a Saturday, don't miss the local farmer's market, just steps away from your front door from May through November. With easy walking access to historic downtown Summerville, your Southern small-town vacation awaits!
