Charming South of Broad Kitchen House

Great location in historic area of Charleston within walking distance of shopping, restaurants and various attractions. Kitchen was well equipped and beds were very comfortable, but lots of steps to reach them on 2nd and 3rd floors. We enjoyed our stay!

Emily was the best! Perfect for our trip to show our friends around Charleston!

Beautiful and great location! The neighborhood is lovely and steps from the Battery waterfront garden. About a 1/2 - 1 mile walk to King street shops and restaurants or easy Uber ride. Comfortable beds. Need to be able to navigate steps, but because the bedrooms are on separate floors, it affords great privacy.

This was our third year in a row staying at this beautiful rental in Charleston. We absolutely loved our stay. Beautiful location, easily walkable to shopping on King Street, multiple restaurants, and the beautiful battery. We look forward to staying again in the future!

Great kitchen appliances and everything was very clean. Beds were very comfortable. Lots of character and charm in the home.

The kitchen house was a lovely place to spend a long weekend. It was clean, well maintained and quiet. The location could not be beat.

Greatest location in Charleston. Very quiet setting and in historic area. Clean house, comfortable beds, lovely walks nearby on Battery. Owner very responsive. We had a marvelous stay.

Pros: Great location, spacious unit, comfy beds.Cons: Poor communication, sub-par cleaning, unwelcoming host Asked about several things response time was 2-4 hours at best and sometimes the next day. Workers showed up 2nd day and blocked access to driveway/parking we were never told about this? No place to put your clothes as most drawers were filled with extra linens and other stuff. Kitchen was not very clean on arrival and apparently previous guest had spilt something in oven and it had not been cleaned, we turned it on to pre-heat and it smoked & caught on fire, decided not to use afterward. After stay got a message from host blaming us and demanding money - not asking if we new anything about it? In general host was very unwelcoming, so I would not recommend this place. Anyway, based on looking at previous reviews that were in any way critical the host will respond that we were terrible and don't know what we're talking about, but I'm just sharing the truth about my stay - there were positives and negatives, I'll leave it at that.

Wonderful stay. Great location. The Kitchen House offers lots of character and convenience while visiting beautiful Charleston. The walk to downtown- King St shopping and restaurants was quick, easy and always felt safe. Host was super responsive and pleasant. We would love to stay at the Kitchen house again.

Absolutely loved our stay in the kitchen house in Charleston!! It was our first time in Charleston and found the location perfect for us. Quiet safe area and easy walking to many sites. The beds were very comfortable and a/c was so nice. Nice outside eating area and fantastic updated kitchen!

Beautiful home and gardens in an idyllic location. Perfect weekend for two couples.

Best location. The home is lovely and everything we needed was there. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. It’s a top notch stay!

This was a great property in a lovely residential neighborhood. In the description I believe they state it’s one of the only rental properties allowed in that neighborhood and you can tell - it’s quiet and beautiful with a distinct lack of commercialism, which is refreshing! The owners were very communicative - we had a small A/C issue on the third floor and they were immediately responsive and came over themselves to help fix the issue. We were in town for a wedding and would absolutely stay here again.

Wonderful. The property is a gem.Our permanent Vacation stay in Charleston. Location , privacy , Decor, and emily ; all wonderful.

Kitchen house was a great location walkable to King shopping and restaurants. The two bedrooms, two baths, spacious home provided for a great girls’ trip.

Good property with good location and communication with Emily, but by far the best part was the supremely comfortable beds! We would come back again for those100%. We would also not try to navigate the drive next time. It was doable, but if we came again, I’d line up the parking passes in advance and make sure I was clear on the street parking rules. So if you don’t have a small car, it may be worth lining up the passes Emily will provide.

We had a wonderful stay in Charleston. The property was clean, well appointed, and conveniently located. The hosts were helpful and gracious. We would definitely stay there again.

We have stayed at South Battery before and the location and accommodations are excellent.Emily and Carl are great hosts and we hope to come back again.Thanks, Don T.

very nice for our stay to attend a wedding… nice and quiet neighborhood…

Historic old house Very unique piece of historyExcellent location in wonderful neighborhoodEnjoyed it very muchNice walk to everythingWould not hesitate to stay here again

Excellent, clean property and a wonderful location across the street from the southern tip of Charleston and the waterfront where we stayed with another couple. You're renting the backside of the home (what was formerly the Kitchen portion of the home) that is now cordoned off from the main house but works perfectly as a 2-bedroom unit (on Levels 2 and 3) with a seating room on Levels 1 and 2. Level 1 also has a small but lovely kitchen updated with new appliances. There's also a small balcony on level 2 that looks onto a charming backyard courtyard near where you park your car behind the home. There are full bathrooms on level 2 and 3 just feet away from the bedrooms plus a laundry room and additional closet space on level 3. The owner Emily is super responsive and didn't even charge us when she mailed us some earrings my wife accidentally left by the bed stand. The whole place is nicely furnished with lots of historical books about Charleston. Would absolutely love to come back both to this house and Charleston because there's so much to explore that we weren't able to see in just one weekend.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Kitchen House. The location is fabulous! Excellent hosts. Look forward to visiting again.

The property is historic, spacious, and comfortable. It's in a phenomenal location to enjoy the beautifully restored prime residential area of historic Charleston and is only one block away from seawall strolls along the bay. Majestic live oaks and iconic palmettos thrive in the parks and along the streets of this beautiful neighborhood with its historic homes and churches. The South of Broad area is the quiet part of Charleston, but it's only a short drive or a pleasant walk to the bustling shops and restaurants of the more common tourist areas.

This was our second time at this beautiful property in Charleston. We love the house, and how walkable everything is from its South of Broad location! Thank you!

The property is great. We loved this historic home and have stayed there the past two years while going to the Charleston food and wine festival.

We had an amazing stay! The property was beautiful, the location was perfect and Emily was quick to respond to our questions. We can't wait to return to Charleston and stay at the same fantastic kitchen cottage!

They were great to work with beforehand and during my stay with any questions. Will definitely be using this location n3xt time i visit my parents!

Charleston and especially The Kitchen House never disappoints!

We wanted to stay in a home with Charleston character and that is what we got here! The home was very well kept. The host was extremely responsive. The location was fantastic.

The charming Kitchen House gives a wonderful feel for Old Charleston. It's one of the best rentals we've ever stayed in. Every detail of the three-story house was elegant. The accommodations were comfortable and the location was perfect for viewing Charleston's magnificent houses.

Neighborhood was a plus.

Overall this property and our stay was very good. The pictures are all accurate and the home is charming. Unfortunately there were some renovations going on at the place and the smell of varnish kept us off the upper veranda completely. The TV situation was very spotty and while there are ample linens, we could have used a few more towels. The drinks and snacks were a super nice touch. The location is ideal!!

The house was perfect for our stay! We arrived during tropical storm Helene and were able to check in early due to the weather. The house has everything you need and is very clean! Emily is very helpful and can answer you questions you may have. You can easily walk to so many restaurants and shops. Highly recommended this home!

It was a great little place to stay. Host was very accommodating and friendly.

This was our second time staying at the property. It is a great location and the inside is elegant and timeless.

Terrific house, terrific manager in Emily.
