Wow! Stop looking and book this home. It's exactly what we needed. We explored the surrounding areas which were only 15 minutes or less away so the location is perfect no matter if you're wanting to spend time at the beach, plantations, museums, shopping orjust relaxing.

Lovely, clean, and well-furnished home on a nice size piece of property. Very comfortable there! Location was great, anywhere we wanted to go (we were on vacation) to downtown, to the beach, to Mt. Pleasant was not more than 15 minutes away. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here!

Charleston getaway

We came down to Charleston for a bachelor party weekend and stayed here. The house was very nice. Decorated with tasteful furniture and art on the wall. The outdoor space was a very nice addition we used to grill out and enjoyed spending time lounging around the deck. The property was large and off the road enough to where you couldn’t really hear any traffic and had good privacy. We actually met the owner by circumstance and he was an extremely nice man. I could tell he cares for the comfort and privacy of the renters. If you are looking for a nice relaxed, quiet place with everything you need, this is the place to go.

Wonderful location between downtown and Folly Beach

This is a very pleasant residential property and a comfortable place to stay. It feels like home and has a spacious feeling interior. The den with the pool table is quite large and was a great place to hang out with the family. If we were staying longer we would have used the outdoor fireplace area as well to have a barbeque, oyster fest or shrimp boil. It felt very safe and was quiet overall. The owner/manager was responsive and super friendly. We hope to have an opportunity to come back and stay again! Everyone in our group was delighted. The late April weather was profound.

Excellent Family Vacation

This house was wonderful. It felt much more than a house but a home in which the family invited us to be a part. The decor and history was brilliant. The pool table was a great time for family connection and teaching. This home is an easy drive to Charleston while experiencing a quiet wonderful neighborhood. Joseph was an exceptional help and so pleasant. The home is fully furnished! The beds are so comfy. My family has stayed in many VRBOs in at least 7 different states and this one is definitely one of our favorites! The outdoor space is incredible. Thank. you to the Grants for opening up their homes for such a great memory for our family. Blessings.

Clean, comfortable and close to everything! We hope to stay here on our next visit.

The home and the property are well maintained and perfect for a large family. The only drawback is that there is only one shower, but that’s a small sacrifice for such a beautiful place to call home while away from your own. The location is fantastic and the property owner was easy to deal with. Our stay was short and we had to catch a SUPER early flight so I hope we cleaned up after ourselves well enough. There was a cabinet door that seemed to have a lock broken off, but other than that the house seemed in great condition. You really can’t go wrong staying here.

Great location to downtown and beach.

Air conditioning had a hard time keeping the upstairs cool. It was very hot outside so I can understand the unit having trouble keeping up. There were several light bulbs that needed to be replaced and would have liked to have had waste baskets in bedrooms . House had most everything we needed, but might consider a microwave. Kids loved the pool table. It was all about the location for us.

Beautiful home away from home!

This home was beautifully decorated and stocked with all the household items one would need. The sheets, towels and linens were all of good quality and nice and soft. The house smelled so clean and fresh upon every entry. We loved using the deck out back which included two large umbrellas for shade. The yard has many trees, shrubs and grass which set the atmosphere for much relaxing. Location was fantastic! Everything was super close for sightseeing, the beach, downtown, restaurants as well as grocery shopping. We were just a bit discouraged with the pavilion area. The sink was inoperable, fireplace was full of ashes, the propane was not connected to the grill and since it was just us girls we didn't want to attempt to hook it up. Overall, we were happy with our choice and grateful for such a beautiful place to stay!
