This was a a fantastic rental in the heart of Charleston. Location was perfect, relatively quiet and tucked back off the main street but walking distance to all the great restaurants and shops. The home is very nice, well furnished, beautiful kitchen area, clean bright bathrooms and comfortable beds. The host was very responsive and helpful. Would definitely rent again.

We had a wonderful stay at this VRBO! The home was clean, quiet, and in a prime location—perfect for walking to restaurants and shopping. It comfortably accommodated our family of six. If we visit Charleston again, we’d definitely look to book this place a second time!

Lovely place and great location but could be a little more woman friendly. For example, more black makeup towels, mirrors, extension cords. Also, the rooms could use ceiling fans. However, there is a coffee shop on the corner and easy access to King St. I would recommend this place for groups.

Duncan House Walkable to Downtown Charleston

Check-in and check-out was soooo easy and streamlined. The host replied to our questions quickly via texts and emails. The kitchen was spotless with ample tools. The fridge was big enough to keep our food and drinks cold. The beds were so comfy! We walked from this place to King Street and it was so pleasant to return and relax! Thank you for making the house so comfortable and new, too!

Beautiful and well appointed vacation right in the heart of Charleston

The title describes most of our experience with this excellent property. It is one block off of King street, kept up incredibly well, and all photos were as advertised once onsite. The little courtyard with the other properties managed by Stay Duvet makes it feel more private and quaint. Highly enjoyed our stay!

Wonderful stay!

We had a fantastic time here at the Duncan House in Charleston. The property was inviting, clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed, and the location was wonderful. We enjoyed walking from the property to lots of great shopping and eating. Having the off-street parking was nice, and driving to all of the must-see places in Charleston was super easy. The Duncan House really contributed to the overall happiness with our trip to South Carolina!

Great Home!

We stayed in the Duncan House for our family vacation. It was a great location for our visit to Charleston. The house was clean, roomy and in a really good location to enjoy the city. The house was close enough to downtown Charleston to walk or take a short Uber ride. After enjoying the sites downtown, it was great to return to a quiet neighborhood to relax. We would definitely use this property again when we return to Charleston!

Sweet Sister reunion

My 2 sisters and I chose to stay at the Duncan House while in Charleston for 4 nights. The home was perfect for us. Everything we needed to have coffee and breakfast in the morning. Location to downtown was perfect. And even though the weather was less than great, it was nice to go back to the house and just spend time together. We would come back here in a heartbeat. And recommend to anyone.The management group was very responsive to us, as well.

Excellent stay

This house is exactly as pictured, but even better! It feels like it is brand new and is a very attractive style. Super clean and very well appointed. The layout is great for a family with adult children and their significant others. The location is amazing too. There are a few separate locations in the same spot so it would be great to rent a few for a family reunion or wedding party. Definitely would stay again.

The property was easy to find and get into, a perfect location and impeccably clean. It was very quiet at night. The property had shampoo, soap, conditioner, detergent and a washer and dryer.

2 Day Stay

Property is extremely well maintained and clean. Location is at end of King St (1 street away). Close proximity to everything from grocery stores, meeting street market and any number of restaurants. Also a nice little cafe at driveway for a breakfast sandwich. StayDuvet company is amazing. Communication was more than 5 star and their marketing material is wonderful. Can’t speak for other properties managed by Duvet or renters, but would have to imagine the experience was top notch as well.
