All guests, age 25 and up, staying at this property with Curated Vacation Properties have been granted access to The Wonderer Charleston.
This 2-acre private membership club nestled in downtown Charleston is a modern oasis offering resort-style amenities and a Bali-Tulum-inspired atmosphere unparalleled on the Charleston peninsula.
The Wonderer includes a swimming pool, onsite eateries for breakfast, lunch, dinner, trendy cocktails, and of course poolside cabanas! It also includes an indoor gym and fitness studio with daily classes, a recovery room full of spa therapies, private and shared workspaces, live music, and an active calendar of social events.
Compass Cottage is fully licensed and legal with the City of Charleston under STR Operational Permit OP2025-06643 and Business License BL026876.
Guest Access:
Guests have access to the front door through the keypad. The door code is given prior to arrival.
The home contains 3 bedrooms on the first floor, each with its own full bathroom.
Parking information
The private driveway will fit one small to mid size car. Please make sure your car does not cross the driveway or you will be ticketed by the city.
The Neighborhood:
What do we love about this neighborhood? Everything!
Each house is unique. The culinary scene for which the Charleston has become so famous is just steps away. Xiao Bao Biscuit, The Grocery, The Ordinary, 492, Chez Nous, Cannon Green, Trattoria Lucca, Stars, and Fuel (from Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives) are all just around the corner - among countless others. The fantastic restaurants and nightlife of Upper King Street are close enough to walk but far enough to not keep you up all night.
Getting Around:
The DASH trolley is free in Charleston. There are 3 routes, and two of the routes have stops just 3 blocks from this property. More information can be found with the route map on the DASH website.
Other Things to Note:
🚫Please note: The Wonderer will be closed for renovations during November. Club access will resume once renovations are complete.
🚫 Pets are NOT Allowed:
As much as we love furry companions, pets are not allowed at this property. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation. If a pet and/or pet evidence is found at the home we reserve the right to charge a $150/pet fee.

🏙️ Noise Notice:
Our home is in a vibrant neighborhood just steps from King Street’s dining and nightlife. While that energy is part of the experience, city noise may be heard. Please be advised that:
⭐️ A local noise ordinance is in effect from 11:00 PM to 7:00 AM.
⭐️ Guests must be respectful of neighbors during these hours.
⭐️ We do not offer refunds for noise-related issues that are to be expected of the location.
⭐️ By booking, you acknowledge and accept this city setting and the potential for ambient noise.
🧑🔧 To help us ensure a great stay, guests must allow us the chance to address any issues during their visit.
Refunds will not be issued for concerns reported after checkout or when resolution efforts are declined.
🏠 We do not control neighboring properties and cannot offer refunds due to dissatisfaction with external factors.
🔌 We do not provide refunds for utility outages or service interruptions that are outside of our control.
❄️ Charleston homes are built for a subtropical climate, and since many are older, severe cold snaps may affect both water temperature and indoor heating.
🧹 If damage or excessive cleaning is required after checkout, we reserve the right to charge an additional fee equivalent to a full cleaning.
🚗 Please note that we cannot assume responsibility for vehicles parked outside the designated parking areas.
🚫 Please note that we will not make exceptions to the cancellation policy associated with your reservation.
