The hostess was so communicative and helpful. The place was very clean and charming and the location couldn’t be more perfect! We had beautiful views of the harbor and easy walking to plenty of restaurants and shopping. The hostess restocked a variety of fresh homemade breakfast items and baked goods daily and was so sweet and accommodating of one of our gluten free family members.

As frequent visitors to Charleston, we were looking for a unique experience when it came to booking our accommodations, and this property delivered. We had previously toured the Edmondston-Alston house and were pleasantly surprised we could stay on the beautiful property. The location is perfect and walkable to all of downtown. The hostess was wonderful in every aspect, and the accommodations were updated and clean, while keeping the character and charm of this historic gem. We had a wonderful stay!

Absolutely fantastic stay. Julie is one of the best hosts I have encountered. She met us, gave us a quick tour of our space and was off. The location is amazing, right across from Charleston Harbor. Easy walking every where. I would definitely stay here again. It's so clean, comfortable, well decorated, comfortable beds and delicious treats for breakfast!

We loved our Inn Keeper, Julie. She left us fruit, coffee and homemade sweet treats. The bedrooms were beautifully appointed, the bathrooms clean and roomy. The location cannot be beat, right on the battery, easy walking through the cobblestone streets into town. We got a free tour of the main house and learned the fascinating history of the owners going back 200 years. A secret gem in the heart of Charleston.

Absolutely fabulous! Julie met us and explained everything. She stocked the kithen with delicious homeade banana bread and 2 different quiches! Other items, yogurt, juice, milk, coffee, tea and fruit were provided as well. Fresh coffee cake was delivered on our 2nd day! The location can't be beat. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Tickets to tour the home/museum next door are included.

A lovely welcome, very clean and Julie had ready homemade delicious food as well as making sure she was available for anything needed. I would recommend this stay and hostess Julie to anyone! It is the fantastic location, quiet is close to everything.The guest quarters we stayed in was an independent apartment and has much historic value and history.Limitations only include that for young children and persons less mobile the steps are steep, but worked well for us! It’s clear that great thoughtfulness goes into this rental property and accommodations for guests.

It is kind of hard to tell from the listing, but this is a great place to rent. We rented the 2 bedroom. It is historic (originally part of the kitchen to one of the most prominent mansions on the waterfront and near the battery). It is a great location right on the waterfront and boardwalk. It's a 5 minute walk to the rainbow houses and maybe 10 minutes from the market and top restaurants. It has a minimal kitchen, but the property manager brings breakfast (muffins or bread and quiche) that kept the 4 of us well fed. We would finitely rent this again when we go to Charleston.

Julie met us upon check-in ( which is a pleasant change from other places sending incorrect codes for electronic locks). We were in Charleston for a wedding and this location, ease of Uber pickup , access to activities and Julie’s breakfast items helped to make the weekend truly enjoyable. Free admission to the adjacent museum added to the historical charm.

A friend and I met in Charleston for a girl’s weekend and had the amazing good fortune to pick this delightful apartment on East Bay Street!! What a gem! The history of the main house is fascinating and the converted kitchen where our apartment was darling! Julie, our host, provided us with yummy baked goods, breakfast items and lovely towels and sheets- divine!! Julie was warm, gracious and fun! I would 100% stay again!!
