Charleston Trip 2024

We enjoyed staying at her home. The location was within walking distance of nice bars and restaurants which was amazing. Her home was clean and she provided a book with recommendations on what to do/where to go in Charleston. The location was also super close to downtown Charleston which helped with shorter Uber rides. My friends, husband and I all had a blast and enjoyed staying at her home, if we are in Charleston again we will definitely rebook. Thank you! :)

Perfect family getaway

We planned a last minute getaway in attempt to outrun Hurricane Debbie as it made its way towards our home in Florida. We spent our first2 days exploring around Charleston. The home was perfectly located near shops and restaurants in Avondale, a short drive to downtown. Hurricane Debbie followed us up the coast so we were rained out of exploring and spent the rest of our trip together in the house. It was perfectly stocked for cooking yummy meals, board games for playing and spending time together. It was just what we needed. Bedrooms were cozy and comfortable, affording privacy for our adult kids. The bathrooms were stocked with plenty of toiletries and robes. The kitchen had local snacks, teas and coffees for us to enjoy. Our pups enjoyed lounging around and the spacious fenced in back yard. Thank you for hosting! We hope to be back soon!

Not as advertised

First the positive, the beds were really comfortable. The house was really clean. The host responded quickly to our concerns. The location is great, multiple restaurants within walking distance. If you are a cook and you want to cook while you’re there, you will be very disappointed in the kitchen. It is large., There’s a nice dining area. But the kitchen is poorly stocked, and the stoves digital thermometer is broken. We found out this the hard way by trying to bake potatoes, we contacted the owner and they apparently had no idea that this was a problem. Of course they were not able to fix it at the time. The back patio/deck is a hazard. Wood boards are rotting, nails are sticking up. There is no table as shown in the pictures. They apparently knew about it, but didn’t let us know. This needs to be fixed before anyone comes to that house to stay. Because of these issues, I would not recommend this home.

Perfect and sweet

We needed a place in Charleston to visit our local family that gave us the flexibility of cooking and bringing our furry family members. It was a beautifully furnished, well located home with a fully stocked kitchen to cook in, ample seating and a lovely back yard. Excellent location near shopping and restaurants.

We enjoyed our stay at 105 Hickory Street. The home was located within walking distance to a wine bar, brewery and restaurants. We were pleased with the condition of the home and information provided by the owner of places to visit in Charleston. Would recommend this property for anyone wanting to visit Charleston.

Charleston Bachelorette Trip

We loved our stay at this house! It was just as advertised, fully stocked with all the basic essentials, and the decor was adorable! Easy check in and check out. We hosted a bridesmaids brunch in the backyard for my daughter and her bridesmaids- the newly added deck was so nice and the trees gave us much needed shade. The kitchen had everything we needed, even spices, trash bags, and serving pieces. Comfortable beds, quiet neighborhood, plenty of parking space.
