My daughter and I stayed here for a long weekend. Everything about the property was perfect. It is a very charming property. They have everything that you need in this unit. The location is in the best possible spot. It is close to everything in the city. The owners mother Linda lives in the front house I had the pleasure of meeting her and her 2 dogs. She was simply delightful. We will definetly stay here again on our trips to Charleston.

Nothing short of perfect!
Far surpassed our expectations of a VrBo stay! Everything needed to have a relaxing trip was provided as described. The location is perfect for seeing everything and having a parking space was the icing on the cake. Thank you so much for allowing us to celebrate in your home and we will be back!

A true Charleston experience
Location, location, LOCATION! We drove down from Columbia, parked in the courtyard, and we only needed to drive once to Mount Pleasant. This beautiful kitchen house is within walking distance from all the Charleston sights: we walked to the market, the waterfront, the battery, and all the best restaurants and shopping! Ruthie was the perfect host and thought of everything. She even had bubbly ready for us to celebrate when we arrived. The house was clean and homey, equipped with everything we needed to have our coffee in the mornings and wine and a VRBO-cooked meal in the evenings. Ruthie’s parents, along with their sweet pups, even checked in on us a time or two. Southern hospitality at its finest. Thanks for a fantastic experience!!

Cozy
It's cozy. I would not recommend to anyone that has stair problems. They are narrow and very slippery. Need bare feet. One of us slipped. Kitchen is VERY well stocked. The pictures make it look bigger than it is. There is parking down a very tiny drive. With all the new beeps on cars now mine didn't stop the whole time everything was so close. Because it can be difficult to turn around I had to back all the way out one day. Not easy. Of course most streets in Charleston are very narrow. It is in a very nice area with a beautiful park right next door.

Wonderful property and host! Within walking to all the key tourist spots and great restaurants. Loved the quaint l, beautiful driveway we returned to everyday. Host provided essentials like coffee and cream and extras like champagne for mimosa’s. Just awesome! Nice cool bedrooms in the heat of summer and comfy beds. Great for our two couples!

Mother/daughter trip
We had a wonderful time in beautiful Charleston. The location of this property is ideal. It’s close to everything and is located right next to a Washington Park which is beautiful. We had one small hiccup with hot water for the showers. But Ruthie and her mom took care of it immediately. The kitchen house is quaint and is stocked very well. The only thing I would not recommend it for families with small children. The bedrooms are located upstairs and the stairs are very narrow and steep.

Overall nice stay in the kitchen house. The location can’t be beat to see old Charleston. House is a described. For the price, we were a little disappointed with the stock of basic supplies- no dish towels or kitchen sponges or extra bath towels. Owner provided single dish towel and sponges on request.

We were in Charleston for our daughter's wedding, and had a wonderful stay. The property was absolutely charming, and we loved that there is so much history associated with the property and area. It was great to meet Ruthie's wonderful parents, and I loved meeting Dottie and Evie! I will definitely try to book here next time we are in Charleston!

Can I give this property ten stars? Because it deserves it! The house has too many amenities to list them all here, but great host is at the top. The location on Broad Street has one mere minutes to Charleston's best shops, restaurants, and all the incredible history that surrounds the city. We loved every minute!

Kitchen House is First-Rate!
The kitchen house provided very comfortable lodging, beautiful decor in a 1700's house, a stocked kitchen, private parking and yard area (surrounded by high wall), in a central location. Not to mention an owner/proprietor who responds quickly. What's not to like about this property?
