Historic Charleston Charm-1 mi beach/6 m downtown/Comfort & Safety
Historic Charleston offers the best of All Worlds: incredible beaches, year-round festivals - Art & Music, historic sight-seeing, Foodie Heaven, nice Weather All year, & sooo much more ... Why priced so well? We are the owners, grew up here, live close by, and have been doing this for 20+ years now, so we are competitive at pricing. Excellent location ! Excellent prices ! Directly across the 3/4 mile causeway from Sullivan's Island pristine beaches/beachfront, in beautiful old village mount pleasant. - Located in a very safe area 1 mile to Sullivan's Island Beach, 6 miles to downtown, 12 miles to the airport, 2 miles to Shem Creek’s famous seafood restaurants, 4 miles to the Yorktown at Patriot’s Point oceanfront in our harbor, and 1 mile to Pitt Street Bridge, this condo offers a huge King size Rice Bed in bedroom as well as a top line queen sleeper in LR. The full bath with extra deep tub/shower is located thru BR. The living area is open concept with queen denim sleeper (beautyrest), wing back chair, and 42' Smart HDTV, small kitchen is fully equipped, and dining table seats 4 comfortably. A stack washer/dryer is in hall closet.1 private parking spot off-street is not large enough for huge trucks, as our lot is small, they block the access for all other vehicles, and parking a premium here. An F150 or Hummer would have to use an alternative around the corner. Free high speed private XFinity WIFI and Smart TV. Walk a mile to Sullivan’s island’s gorgeous beach and fun pubs, or a mile the other direction to Old Pitt Street Bridge, a 1000-foot pier, is a favorite biking, walking, crabbing, waterfront, fishing destination on the Intracoastal Waterway with incredible sunsets overlooking downtown Charleston. A full shopping center, 2 grocery stores, and 9 restaurants/pubs are less than 2 blocks walk. There are five top golf courses within 10 to 20 minutes drive and many more 30-45 minutes. One of our best features is that we are located in a much lower traffic area than most of the Charleston Area. Mount Pleasant’s Old Village is accessible to downtown and beaches without entering the main traffic areas of Hwy 17 which have become a burden to our city. Directions will be direct and simple and involve few complicating factors. This can make a serious difference in your experience. It was built in 1975, renovated in 2009, without granite and stainless. *We are only "perfect" for some travelers. There are others on here that advertise being perfect, and we encourage perfectionists to rent those. The Village is the nicest area, but most brand new places are miles up the HWY, or down the block with 5 star rates. Due to local ordinance, we are now 30 day or more rental, for a great monthly rate/deal. Dogs must be approved and PET Fee covered!!! Extra cleaning after pets is done for future guests with mild/moderate pet allergies. No Cats - I am sorry to say it costs over $1000 to de-allergy a furnished home after cats, and my daughter, as well as other guests, are severely allergic. We provide a limited amount of start-up paper goods, soaps, etc.

Very convenient and comfortable stay
It was our first visit to the Charleston area and this was a perfect location. We could walk to the grocery and a few local restaurants. Apartment has a great shower and the bed was very comfortable. Kitchen space is a little tight, but we managed to make some great meals.
Location is great for beach and Charleston area. Condo was vey quiet. We had an issue contacted the Manager and she promptly responded and took care of Us!
Rented this condo for two months to work remotely snd get away from the NE winters. It was perfect for me and my daughter. Great location, minutes from virtually everything! Plenty of room in the condo for both of us, storage for our bikes outside and wonderful, prompt communication from Susan. Great stay.

I had a wonderful stay - property just as described. Perfect location, close to the beach and quick Uber ride to downtown Charleston. The walls are thin, lots of traffic noise and construction around the unit but that didn't bother me. I will definitely stay again when I'm in the area.

We absolutely loved our stay. The condo was well appointed and the decor was perfect. Great info from Susan was left for us. Sooo close to Charleston....plus Sullivan island, Island of the palms and Folly Beach! We stayed busy and we just loved this location. Pages Okr Grill was to die for...right down the street? You can't go wrong with this condo! Clean and even better than described..A

We enjoyed staying outside of Charleston in Mt Pleasant, SC. Mt Pleasant had many places of interest also. When we wanted to go to Charleston it was right over the bridge. The condo was very well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Love the location. The condo was clean and comfortable!! The king bed was very comfy. We would booked this location again. Thank you Susan for attention to detail!!

We relocated to Charleston and this was a great transition home while we waited on the repairs for our house to be completed. Susan is a GREAT communicator, & IF you need her, is absolutely there for you and your stay! Her place is SO centrally located too. We really got out there and explored a lot! Close to so many other parts of town too! The unit is cozy and cute too. She welcomed our fur babies with open arms as well. Highly recommend this unit!

Charleston condo
This Mt Pleasant condo was very nice. Accessible to downtown Charleston, but away from all the traffic and busyness of downtown. Very close to Sullivan's beach. Close to very nice restaurants in Mt Pleasant. Accomodations were excellent, comfortable bed, everything you need the owner provided. Only recommendation is that the owner update the "neighborhood folder" she provides w/ restaurant suggestions.... some of the restaurants have closed. Otherwise, we really enjoyed are stay and would stay there again.

Convenient location
Picked this unit due to its deacription of being family friendly and it being centrally located near the beach and Charleston. When we arrived the unit was as described but after reading the 2 pages of "rules" and "cleaning guidelines," I was wondering if I had picked correctly. Unit is quiet and well stocked but the neighbor sits outside the door and chain smokes. I know the owner doesn't have control over this, but the neighbor smoking causes the living room/kitchen to smell like stale smoke almost the entire stay.
Owner charged a $60 cleaning fee, but requests you wash the sheets and towels along with take the trash out to the dumpster on the other side of the building before you leave. Why am I paying a cleaning service if I'm doing laundry, dishes, and the trash?
Wish there were better details on the unit description, then we could have gone with another unit. We pride ourselves on being a courteous renters and leaving the home in excellent condition, but Susan didn't come off as a courteous host in her notes left on the fridge and in the binder.

Response from VrboOwner on 28 Mar 2020
I wish that I had heard about this soon upon arrival, Instead of after departure, so I could have handled/clarified these matters immediately. I inquired about the conditions of the condo, thru site And directly, shortly after arrival, requesting to be notified of any issues in order to ACT IMMEDIATELY at hour/day ONE.
1 - Our HOA by-laws require that smokers go outside of the entryway/covered common areas and stairways to smoke, for exactly that reason. I have the phone number of that new, young, and occasionally thoughtless neighbor for reasons just such as this. Signs have been ordered by the HOA as of today to prevent this into the future.
2 - There was an older set of rules there, changed immediately upon notice. Guests USED to be Requested to strip sheets and put in laundry, with $10 lower cleaning fee.
It is and REMAINS standard practice to have guests empty trash, as they may have Stinky trash (shrimp heads/shells, sardine cans, feminine products, diapers...) which permeates the place when not cleaned for hours, or occasionally until next day. If you are offended at taking out your own trash, please do not rent from us.
3 - This guest received apologies and a refund of the entire cleaning fee upon complaint sent AFTER departure. That will not be the case next time.
I would have preferred to Stop the smoking, Clarify no sheets stripped, and that Trash is standard outside of motels, right away.
This stay in a Premium Condo, in Premium Location, Mid-July Weekend cost this guest $137.33 + tax per night, and throwing away their own diapers seemed outrageous?

Nice one bedroom condo with comfortable king bed. Street noise is loud in living room, but quiet in bedroom. Can walk to restaurants. Five minute drive to Shem Creek. Susan was really nice and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.
I can't say enough good about this property! It was clean and well-appointed. The king size bed was very comfortable and the couch pulled out, but was nice and oversized for just one person. All of the travel size toiletries that you would expect were provided, but also spare toothbrushes, deodorant, and feminine products! There were even beach supplies (including a cooler) provided for tenant use. We didn't need them, but I was impressed to see a high chair and pack 'n' play provided as well. The washer and dryer in unit was a great bonus! VERY pet friendly! I have a 130 pound mastiff and it's not easy to find places that will allow him. The condo complex was very quiet with respectful neighbors. The location itself is very convenient to everything in the Charleston area. There are several good restaurants nearby and both a Publix and CVS within walking distance. The owner was very quick to respond to a concern about the AC. It ended up resolving itself, but she scheduled a repair man ASAP. I will absolutely book here again the next time I come to the Charleston area.
Great neighborhood, far enough away from the hectic pace but close enough to do whatever we wanted. Very comfy bed and couch ( my wife never sleeps in). Great Mexican restaurant within walking distance.

Awesome location!!
We had a fantastic visit and really appreciated the convenient location to beaches at IOP and Sullivan’s island with downtown Charleston only 15 minutes away. Shem Creek/Mt Pleasant has plenty to offer as well. The rental was more spacious than we expected based on the pictures and had everything we needed! There is a little road noise, mostly noticeable in the living area but the street is really not that busy by this part of town and it’s probably better here the ground level units in the complex, it did not disturb our sleep. Susan is a very helpful and responsive host and went out of her way to ensure we had a great visit!

Mt Pleasant condo a great spot!
We enjoyed our stay and found the area to be extremely convenient to everything in the greater Charleston area! The owner is a lovely lady who helped us through a few snags! The condo is small but very charming decorated with some very nice furniture! The 4 poster king size bed was comfortable and a nice change for those of us who have lived with a queen size bed for many years. The owner has supplied a book with information about restaurants and attractions in the area. ..a nice touch! She made herself convenient for any questions we had. All in all our stay was a positive experience!

Perfect Spot!!
When we first arrived, we met Susan. Let me just say she is a sweet, charming host, and made us feel beyond welcome to be staying in the condo. She gave us some wonderful tips for things to check out and places to eat, and we had a fantastic time exploring Charleston. The location is perfect - whether you want to go to Sullivan's Island, downtown Charleston, or any of the plantations, it's fairly centrally located, and a quick trip to pretty much anywhere. We like to walk, and found that we were within a stone's throw to some great restaurants, and even the touristy things we did like Patriot's Point were only about an hour away on foot - great exercise and saves on parking! ^_^ The condo itself was perfect for the two of us. More than ample space for us to relax and unwind, and the kitchen was perfect for everything we wanted to do. The area was cozy and quiet, and though there were a lot of other people staying in the complex while we were there, we never heard anyone. No complaints at all - well, maybe just one, in that we didn't get to see everything we wanted to see or go everywhere we wanted to go...we ran out of time! LOL We definitely want to come back to Charleston in the near future, and when we do, you can bet our first call is going to be to Susan to see if we can stay with her again! Thanks again for everything!

Great location-comfortable accomodations
Had a great visit to the Mt. Pleasant area. The condo was in a great location to what we were interested in doing. Only wished it had a porch or balcony to have enjoyed morning coffee. It was very clean and was just as pictured. The king bed was very comfortable. Didn't do any cooking but kitchen looked well stocked. As previously stated the parking is in need of repair.

About the host
Hosted by Susan Player Verbsky
I am Susan Player Verbsky, a wife and mother by God's Grace, a Psychotherapist by training, with a small practice here for 20 years, and a Real Estate investment and management specialist by design for the same time period. I enjoy the great intangible rewards of Therapy, and, equally, the tangible rewards of developing a property and working with people planning vacation time.
Why they chose this property
My parents own a large wonderful beachfront home that rents by week, which I have managed for 20+ years. We decided to invest in some vacation rentals that would easily accessible to the beach and historic downtown, and a more affordable vacation here for smaller families/groups. I am from this area, we live close by, and just love this location.
What makes this property unique
We are truly in the best possible location for accessibility to all facets of the Charleston area: lowest traffic area, safest area, beautiful area, easy directions to all locations.
