About the host
Hosted by Joe Semiklose
Joe and Tamara Semiklose’s
story began in Charleston in 1989, when Joe, stationed in the Navy, crossed paths with Tamara, a North Carolina native who had recently made Charleston her home. Their first date set the tone for their shared love of the area—dinner at California Dreaming and a peaceful walk on Folly Beach.
Life took them on adventures to Florence, SC, and San Diego, CA, thanks to job opportunities, but Charleston always called them back. After retiring in 2023, they returned to the Lowcountry, where they found the perfect 5-acre site with a polo pony barn. Now, they’re lovingly restoring the property, transforming it into a small farm and a collection of cozy short-term rental spots, eager to invite others to experience the charm and beauty of Charleston they’ve cherished for so long.

What makes this property unique
Welcome to your Lowcountry escape. Here at Storybook Barn, we believe in slowing down and savoring the little things: birdsong in the morning, the feeling of a soft breeze, the rustle of deer through the woods. This space began as a former polo barn, and today it’s transforming into a sanctuary where people and animals can find peace, comfort, and connection.
Enjoy the quiet rhythm of the land and the antics of our chickens.
Whether you're here to celebrate, reflect, or simply relax, we hope your time here leaves you refreshed and reminded of the joy found in simple things.
This space is more than a rental, it’s part of our story, and we’re so glad you’re part of it too.
