Fourth of July Fun!
Quaint, quiet neighborhood with gorgeous marsh views and lovely sea breeze. We rented the Villa for out of town family. Susan and Charlie were kind and had no problem with the whole family (6 adults, 2 kids) spending time there. The place was great for two adults and a 10 yr old. The kitchen was well stocked including aluminum foil, ziplocks, big bowls, etc. We did a lot of grilling and spending time on the spacious back porch. When we weren't at the beach, we were in the pool. The outdoor shower was key to refresh before relaxing for the evening. The Villa is behind the main house, but the hosts gave us our space. Easy arrival and departure. Fun time!

Family get away
This villa was absolutely amazing and so very relaxing. I’m just gonna list what we loved. There was nothing to note we didn’t like and as a young family there’s always something. Here Susan thought of it all. The beds super comfy, plenty of space for our family, fully stocked kitchen, great quality linens, back yard for the kids to run, catch crabs, tree swing, and the pool. Susan was an amazing host who was available for questions while we enjoyed a part of their famiy’s paradise in the villa. The views were stunning and even with a little rain one of our favorite trips. We will definitely return to visit friends in the area.

Wonderful time!
We had the most amazing time on James Island! The property was clean, well decorated, and has absolutely everything you could ever need- from kitchen supplies to toiletries to beach chairs & an umbrella! The hosts were incredibly kind and hospitable. The view from the covered porch was picturesque and peaceful. The only slightly negative was that the “private pool” was not quite as private as we expected. It is more of a “borrowed pool” from the hosts’ home. I would go back and stay in a heartbeat; just think it is helpful to know ahead of time regarding pool situation.

Susan and Charlie were amazing hosts! We came for the Highwater Music festival and this property was a great sanctuary away from the crowds. So clean and comfy. They even had beautiful fresh flowers waiting for us. The pool was lovely and the view of the marsh was so nice. And we loved the doggies and kitties! Thank you for a great stay!

Picturesque James Island
There are so many wonderful things to say about the property and owners that I am not sure I can do it justice. The Villa was clean, comfortable and the view is breath taking. Waking up each morning to look out the large windows to see the sheer beauty of the marsh and the sun is unbelievable. Our kids took more pictures than we did! The property is located a short 15 minute drive from Charleston Market and the French Quarter. Local dining is amazing and worth the wait. Susan was extremely helpful all through the process and made our family feel welcome throughout our stay. Thank you Susan for all your help and sharing your wonderful property with our family. It is a stay we will never forget and hope to return!

Terrific location and clean, neat little property
We loved the porch with the hanging bed and swinging egg seat. I would sit out there in the mornings with my coffee and watch the birds in the bird sanctuary and the yard. And we saw some cool ones! Including the blue heron, white egret, white ibis, and eastern bluebird. It was incredibly quiet and peaceful, which is just what my partner and I needed to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life/work. Plus it was convenient to downtown Charleston and the King Street area (note to other users - do some research in advance on where the public parking lots are located). The unit was well-supplied with toiletries, towels, kitchen utensils, etc. My only suggestions would be to lower the TV on the wall (you need to crane your neck a bit to watch it on the wall), replace the mattress in the bedroom on the right (it dips in the middle), and replace the pillows in both bedrooms. Other than that, it was a wonderful stay and I highly recommend this property. Other

The place is such a little sanctuary away from city life, even if Charleston is only a 10 minute drive. Alexa was able to put down that country music while I wine down on her swing sofa. Definitely recommend.

The villa was absolutely perfect for our family!! My wife and I traveled to Charleston with our 2 young kids and we were blown away by how perfect this rental was. 15 min to folly beach and 15 to downtown Charleston. The villa was very clean and very well stocked. From the pool, deck with swings, to the views we loved every second. Susan was a perfect host.

Had a great stay!
We had a great stay at this location. Everything was as described. We had plenty of room for our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 kids) and the kitchen was fully stocked. You are staying in a small house behind the owner's house, but do have full access to the beautiful backyard and pool. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Loved waking up in the morning and drinking a cup of coffee on the back porch while watching the birds fly through the marsh. Would definitely stay here again!

The perfect spot
Truly the perfect little gem! The villa was close to everything, just a short drive to town and the beach. Owners were kind and friendly and the house had everything we needed. Comfy beds and pillows and every amenity you can think of - the villa has it! The porch is a dream, wake up with the marsh sunrise on the swing and you may even get a kitty to keep you company. Don’t wait, book it!

Peaceful Retreat
The Villa was a peaceful and beautiful getaway. The owners communicated everyday and ensured that we had everything we could possibly need. This is the best experience I have ever had with a VRBO rental. I look forward to staying here again. There were so many special “touches” to make our stay memorable. Fresh flowers brightened the already lovely decor! Thanks again to the owners for making our weekend wonderful!!

We stayed 7 nights during Spring break and booked this on a whim. This property exceeded our expectations. The location was central and had easy drivable access to downtown, Mount Pleasant, Folly Beach, and West Ashley. The pool and porch were amazing with the spectacular views. This is a hidden gem. Be sure to try Baguette Magic which is a short walk away. The host were absolutely wonderful and very accommodating. Everything was clean and beautiful. Great stay and we will be back.
