This was the perfect place for a group of friends. The B&C units were tucked back off the street and the courtyard was the perfect place to stretch our wings outside during the day. Quick walk to upper king street. Communication all weekend was great as well. Highly recommend!

Couples vacation

Although it is 2 separate houses, we found it to be a perfect setup. Every room had everything needed for a comfortable stay. Both homes were simple yet tastefully decorated. Our dishwasher was broken, so we did them by hand and also used the dishwasher in the other home as needed. Other than that, check-in was a breeze and location was ideal. Would stay here again!

Great location!

Multigenerational girls trip of first-timers to Charleston…great location to walk almost everywhere and space for us all! From the pictures, courtyard space seems to be in between the properties but it’s actually on the side of one, close to a different house. Didn’t get to spend as much time out there as we wanted but no complaints! Property manager super easy to work with and very accommodating. Highly recommend!

Great houses for large groups

We rented both units for a group of 16, 8 couples to celebrate some milestone birthdays. Having the 2 units with 8 people in each is much more manageable then having 16 in one house. Great option for us. The house was in a decent neighborhood, we walked to breakfast and to King street for dinners and shopping and bars. It's a bit of a walk to the main center. Overall great stay. Some of the houses had some small issues, some were fixed and some were not. Overall would stay again. Also note, no closets in most of the rooms. It's best for a long weekend, not sure would spend a week.

Wedding Celebration!

This property was amazing! Perfect location and easily accessible to all of the Charleston historic treasures. We booked it for our daughter's wedding and had extended family traveling from California. It was great to have two houses side by side - close enough to visit but still had our own private space. Extremely clean, well stocked and beautifully decorated. Modern conveniences and plug-ins for your electronics. Accessible housekeeping and quick response communication. The courtyard was a beautiful bonus. Thanks for a great stay!
