Charleston Waterfront Retreat w/ Deep Water Dock

JudyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Beautiful home and surroundings. 3 couples with personal spaces and large communal spaces to gather. Very comfortable and clean. Recommend Kiss Cafe for breakfast. We also went through Savor Charleston and had Chef Morgan and her assistant prepare and serve a dinner at the house- fabulous food and was relaxing to just enjoy the views and the wonderful home. Highly recommend! It's no wonder their home receives the 5 star reviews!

JulieRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We were in town for High Water with friends and had the most amazing stay! Michael’s place is the e best Airbnb I’ve ever been to! There’s so many little details in which you can tell a lot of thought went into the design and amenities. The pictures truly do not give it justice!! 10/10!

3 BR - 10 Minutes to Downtown w/ Lakefront Deck

MarkRating, 5 stars1 day ago
We have stayed this location before and as before it did not disappoint. The home is spacious. All necessary items are in working order, easy to use (frig, washer/dryer, coffee pot, dishes, etc.). We are repeat customers of this area in Lake Palmetto since it is quiet and close to plenty of stores and places to eat. Thank you to our hosts for making this stay good again.

'Blue Heron' Luxury on the Lake

ConstanceRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Meghan was a top notch host - not only great and quick responses to our many questions but we all appreciated the attention to detail with things thought of for guest comfort. We called kitchen drawer the “go to” drawer as it had scissors, tape, extra charger cords, bday candles, matches etc. All of us commented on the comfort of the beds. This is a great home for 5-6 women as it offers lots of space. Thank you Meghan.

Dream River House at North Charleston

KRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This might be the best vacation rental we have ever had. My grandson liked this vacation more than Disney World. It was the perfect place to relax and just enjoy being with family. Mark was great and available if we had any questions. We will definitely be coming back.

Beautiful renovated home in the Charleston area

JuliaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This house is as described - beautiful, spacious. Lots of rooms for privacy or for gathering to talk, watch movies or play games. The kitchen is great, amazing stove, well-equipped. The sleeping areas are very comfortable. We had a group of 7. The open air decks are great for lounging. The glassed in decks are great for early morning or late evening nature watching (loved the ducks and alligators), having coffee and desserts or wine sipping. The home exceeded our expectations and our host was friendly and responsive.

Lake front Cottage

ChelseaRating, 5 stars5 days ago
We loved our stay. It was the best location for some peace and quiet and close enough to all of our points of interest. We were able to visit Mount Pleasant/ Shem Creek, Folley Beach and Downtown Charleston. The home and outdoor spaces were perfect and we loved all the details. The extra touches (quality shower products,games, and even slippers) make this visit one we can’t wait to revisit.

Renovated luxury home - 10 minutes Folly/downtown

ErinRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We traveled to Charleston to commemorate a 70th birthday party. The house was beautiful, clean and well supplied. Location was central to all the places that we wanted to visit. The outdoor patio was fantastic, just be aware that you must be indoor by nine pm, which was a bit of a bummer, as we would have loved to enjoy the space and hot tub at night.

We decided on a quick beach trip and selected this place as we have stayed here previously a few years ago. The place was clean. Kitchen was well stocked with appliances and dishes. The large bedroom had a king bed and bunk beds which were very comfortable. The bathrooms were clean. All in all we had a peaceful trip!!!

We loved our stay there, great location and so much to do on Seabrook. We loved the space and the kitchen provided us the ability to cook breakfast each morning while watching the fish jump in the pond. We would definitely book this location again!

Beautiful 3BR Lakefront | Pool | Dock | Balcony

MarkRating, 5 stars9 months ago
great home with lots of space and privacy. Quiet and lots of nice beaches and bike trails around. very clean and an interesting setting. Lots of fun games to play and the wifi and tv worked really well. It was a bit further than I expected but if you want peace and quiet this is the place for you. My only suggestion would be to provide some beach towels and maybe a few beach chairs. I loved the home and would book again if I am in the area.
