Great weekend place

We stayed here for the weekend to attend a graduation and be near our daughter’s place on John’s Island. The house is very unique but comfortable and clean. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked. We would have liked ac power in the outdoor area. There were quests in the school bus behind us but it was never an issue. We would definitely rent this home again.

About the host

Hosted by Kris and Carol Doyle

Carol and I have been married going on 2 years now. We live and met in Columbia, SC, 3 years ago when Carol relocated to Ft. Jackson, and I moved there for a new job in the corporate world. Carol is on active duty as Captain in the Army, while I travel for work frequently. We currently have two dogs, Sir Charles and Sir Edward that we care for deeply.

Why they chose this property

Carol and I just recently purchased this property as our weekend getaway from Columbia, SC, along with it being the island that Carol grew up on. When we are not relaxing and enjoying the peaceful property ourselves, we want to share the tranquility with others as they visit the Charleston area. While this is our first time renting out a property on HomeAway, we fully believe in providing the best experience possible during your time at our place. We look forward to hearing from you!

What makes this property unique

Carol and I love the entire property, from the how the house is constructed by recycled materials, to the simplicity of tiny living, to the beautiful outdoor space to relax in.
