A perfect get away in South Carolina

The cottage is, as an understatement, perfect. The cottage, is really a spacious house but is still very cozy. Plenty of room for us. The rooms are well furnished and very comfortable. If we ever have a reason to go to South Carolina we will definitely be back.

Our four night stay could not have been more perfect! The house was spacious and lovely, being situated in the quaint, beautiful historic district. It was beautifully decorated and spotless, and the kitchen was equipped with more than enough cookware, dishes, glassware, and cutlery. Check-in was extremely easy and the host very responsive and helpful with all our inquiries! We were even able to rent a golf cart from them which was a hit with visiting nieces and nephews. Thank you for such a lovely home and we will definitely stay there again if visiting Summerville!

Perfectly charming, clean and comfortable

We visit Summerville every year and finally found a place that checks all the boxes. The kitchen and bathrooms were fully stocked and clean. The house was furnished in the most charming way- southern charm. The location is perfect, close to everything while also tucked away in a quiet established historic neighborhood. Thank you for the excellent southern hospitality- we will book again!

Summerville gem

We stayed at Charleston street cottage with our adult family. It was very comfortable with a beautiful front porch. It is a quick walk to downtown Main Street for shopping and restaurants. Easy access to highways for all of the Charleston must dos!

Beautiful Historic Summerville

We loved this property. The home was beautiful, the furnishings, the location. On a quiet street in downtown Summerville with gorgeous trees. The porch was my favorite area perfect for relaxing. It is very close to downtown Summerville, a nice area to walk around. The house was stocked with everything you need if you want to cook. I would highly recommend this stay.

Quiet Escape

We were in town for a wedding and needed a place to stay for the weekend. I selected this home because it had plenty of rooms and bathrooms but it had so much more! It was beautiful both inside and out! It was clean, spacious, and so relaxing! Coming back to this space after a long wedding day was exactly what we needed! This space is in a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for just enjoying each other’s company! We would definitely stay here again!

Great location and community approximately 30 mins From Charleston SC I stayed with 4 of my college girl friends. Beautifully furnished 3 full baths were a real extra. 2 on main floor with 2 bedrooms and 1 bath and 2 twin beds upstairs. Enjoyed Coffee on the porch each morning and card games each night in dining room, An earlier review said the stairs were steep I totally disagree the stairs were wide and well lit. Easy to find home lots of parking. Will stay there again. Great place for adult gathering.

Why they chose this property

My husband and I used to walk by this area downtown Summerville and both agreed it was our favorite street. One day we saw a for sale sign and the rest is history. We still love this street and neighbors and we think you will too.

What makes this property unique

We moved this over110 year old home from down the street, put it on our lot and remodeled it. It has imperfections but loads of charm.
