Cozy house

We really enjoyed our stay in Huger! It was nice to have a place close enough to Charleston & the beach but also away from the hustle & bustle of the city! We could venture out to go somewhere & return to relax at the end of the day. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware & made it easy for us to save money by making dinners a few of the nights. Would love to return in the fall or spring sometime to better enjoy the screened in porch. Missing the beauty of SC already!!

Serene location

Perfect location for my family for our recent trip to Charleston. We enjoyed being away from the crowds. My kids were able to play in the yard which is a bonus. The kitchen is well stocked. We had everything needed and more to prepare meals. The host was exceptional- great communication. Loved the screened in back porch. I hope we can return soon!

Amazing peaceful break

We had the most peaceful time. From the moment we walked through the door we were impressed. We literally felt like we were home. Everything we needed was provided. The property is a peaceful oasis. The care and cleanliness of the home, along with the welcome basket made such an impression on us. We’ll definitely return.

Dans la Foret Guest House is a Gem!!!

There is a reason why this property is highly rated and beloved. The hosts are communicative, attentive and kind. Our family enjoyed how clean and comfortable the house is. We especially loved the large recliner in the family room and the screened in porch is fabulous!!!! We spent hours hanging out on the porch. Outside you have your pick of activities, such as swimming, fishing, barbecuing, playing a game of soccer in the grass, etc. The wild life is gorgeous, with lizards darting around, tiny green frogs hopping about and the many different types of birds, including a wonderful gaggle of geese. The peace, quiet and beauty is just what our family needed. We also enjoyed being close to the beach, Charleston and so much delicious bbq!! We look forward to returning to Dans la Foret Guest House.

Far Away but Close Enough

What a wonderful little home this is tucked away in a little community outside of Charleston. It was immaculate, cheerful, cozy, comfortable, quiet and had everything we needed for our six week stay. Our hosts, Brenda and Wanda, were so friendly, attentive and accommodating. We truly felt like we were at home. Our pup loved when Bandit, the very friendly dog from across the road, would stop by for his daily visit. We enjoyed our outings to downtown Charleston (had a fabulous meal at FIG), Charleston Museum, Cypress Gardens, walks at Laurel Hill County Park in Mount Pleasant and going to the beach. While there's much to do in the area, because we had such fabulous accomodations, we always looked forward to days when we just stayed home. Thanks to our hosts for making our winter getaway so enjoyable!

Beautiful property

The property is gorgeous and the house was very nice. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you could possibly want. The bed was very comfortable. The grill did not work well when we were there, but the owners tell us they’re going to go buy a new one today. Apparently an otter ate all but one koi. We were not able to fish because the female swan was sitting on a nest, and the male swan was guarding it. The guest bathroom bathtub was so slippery that someone in our party fell. The owners also said they were going to rectify this. Overall, I would highly recommend.

Sarah R.

The home was very nice, however when we booked this place we booked it because we saw that it had a pool. Come to find out the pool is in the owners yard and you have certain times you can swim. After going to the beach for the day and going to dinner we wanted to have a night swim, but were not able to. I guess we were mislead when we read “private pool”. We would have stayed somewhere closer to the beach had we known. Overall, it was not a bad experience just a little inconvenient.

I loved that it was away from the city. The landscaping was beautiful. You could not ask for a better more gracious host. They were so pleasant to talk to and very accommodating. The house was beautiful and the screen in porch was great to relax and talk. I highly recommend.
