Welcome to your home away from home! This guest house private, with its own entrance, and is attached to a main house. It sleeps 4, with 2 in the queen bed, 1 on an air mattress and 1 on a Lucid folding mattress. We provide WiFi, toiletries, linens & towels, clothes iron, hair dryer, full kitchen, beach essentials, coffee & tea. Watch waterfowl while sitting by the serene backyard creek, or go on an adventure to Folly or downtown.

Centrally located for your beach getaway, or business trip. James Island is close to everything, and very easy to get to.

In addition to the bedroom, full bath, full kitchen, and living room, our backyard is a wonderful place to hang out. We have large picnic table, a charcoal grill, a hot tub, a large garden, and a fire pit. So much to enjoy as you are waterfront. You are even welcome to fish in the waterway (catch & release), or use our kayaks for a jaunt down the estuary. Please note: our backyard is shared with other guests from two other units.

We have a smart TV with many apps to enjoy.

We can only accommodate two guest vehicles. We give you a code to enter on the keypad a few days before you arrive. You can check in anytime after 4pm. We charge a $50 early check-in/late check-out fee.

We live locally and are available to address any issues that may arise during your stay or to answer any questions.

No smoking, drugs, or parties.

There is a creek behind the house. If you let your children into the backyard, please be aware that the creek is attached, and be water safe.

We provide a bag of beach essentials, which includes beach towels, beach chairs (4), which you are welcome to use during your stay. Does not include snorkeling gear.

We are centrally located on James Island, about 10 minutes from Downtown Charleston, 15 to Folly Beach, close to historical landmarks, restaurants, museums, and tons of fun things to do. The closest beach is about five minutes down the road. We are close to shops, museums, restaurants, and entertainment. There is a grocery store one block away (with a Starbucks inside).

Please note: Our property is located on a busy street, and some traffic noise may be noticeable, particularly during busier times of day. This is a permanent feature of the location and is unfortunately not something we can change. If you are especially sensitive to traffic or street noise, we encourage you to choose a property in a quieter setting that may be better suited to your preferences. We want to make sure our home is the right fit for your stay!

Uber or Lyft are your best bet if you don’t bring a vehicle. It is a short Uber ride to downtown. Feel free to use our grass to turn your car around on. Being on a busy street, it’s easier to pull onto the street when facing forward.

The cleaning fee is based on a courteous guest. Any excessive dirtiness or neglect will accrue an additional $95 fee.

    Very nice space for me and my girlfriend. This was our first VRBO and we had an amazing experience. The host had great communication with us and the location of the house was 10 minutes from downtown. It doesn’t feel like it with all the scenery. Great booking!

    This guest house was perfect for me, my husband, and our two children. It was very quiet and extremely clean. I am a clean freak when it come to bed pillows and sheets, and everything was spotless. Sarah, the host is very responsive and accessible. It couldn't have been more perfect. Thank you for helping us make so many good memories.

    We stayed for 1 week from May 20 - May 27th. The home was very clean and well maintained. Allow it is located on a busy street, it’s so quiet and there’s no road noise. The location was perfect. It’s located on an easy on and off street with great restaurants close by. The back yard was a relaxing place to retreat after a busy day exploring the city of Charleston. We would definitely stay again.

    This place is great! Very close to everything we wanted to do and the host left us a great list of recommendations. I found myself looking back at her list often. It was so good, I even asked to stay another night haha. Not only did we have a great experience but I truly feel like we got our moneys worth. The house is on a busy street and the host makes that very clear but I had no problem sleeping.

    We loved this stay, the location was perfect as it was 5 minutes away from our Son's house. The property was very clean and very accommodating. We would recommend this property to anyone coming to Charleston. Short drive to downtown and Folly Beach, one of our favorite places to visit.

    We stopped for two nights in Charleston and booked this cute cottage. The owner, Sarah was extremely helpful before check-in and during our stay. A very nice extra were farm fresh eggs available for our enjoyment. They were delicious! The proximity to Charleston city center was close, but not within walking distance. The property is on a busy road. If mild road noise doesn't bother you then you wouldn't notice.

    My wife and I enjoyed our stay. This property was just as described in the listing. The location was perfect for those who don’t want to stay in the city itself. The rental was clean, nicely appointed, and some fun treats and surprises were left for us to enjoy...even some fresh eggs from the property hens. The rental was near restaurants, excursions, and just a short drive to the city. We enjoyed a day at The Magnolia Plantation, a boat ride over to Fort Sumter(I got to help raise the flag for the day), City Market, two separate carriage rides(historical and ghost), and enjoyed many great meals. The hosts were very nice and easily contacted if needed. You won't be disappointed with this great rental.

    We had a great experience staying here. Sarah is a host who will go above and beyond to help - and she was always quick to respond. The location was perfect! Most activities were 10-15 min away. We stayed here with our 4 year old, and we had plenty of space. Access to the neat backyard was also very much appreciated. Would highly recommend staying here!
