Fantastic host and great location!
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!

This place is very cozy. Our grandkids age 12 and 8 loved it. Sarah provides everything you can think of to make your stay comfy and relaxing. There are all kinds of extras. We accidentally left our grandsons hoodie. Sarah was very accommodating in shipping his shirt back to us. We definitely recommend a stay here!

Great Find with Random Perks that were great for my family
What a great find for my family of 4. The location was within a 20 minute drive or less of everything we had interest in doing. The price was right and had everything we needed during our stay. I was concerned about it being a smaller space with 2 kids, daughter (6) and son (10) but we LOVED and fully used the backyard areas. My son loved playing with Sarah's sons. They were so well behaved and that was a highlight of the trip to get back to hang out with them on the trampoline or playing basketball. My daughter loved the trampoline and feeding the geese in the canal in the back. I loved the mini chicken lesson when Sarah let my kids collect the chicken eggs and some of the tidbits they learned about chickens. It was such a unique experience for a rental to have but it was just want my family needed. The hot tub was waiting on a part so we were bummed about that. The queen bed in the master was super comfy. The kids slept on the twin air mattress which was the tallest thing we've ever seen, and there was a twin fold out for my younger one. There was enough room in the bedroom to finagle the 2 twin mattress so we could all sleep in there together. They added a desk to the main room which was not part of the original posting when I first reserved so that was a nice add for me to do some work at. We would definitely consider coming back and staying.

Perfect stay!
Sara‘s house was meticulously clean, very conveniently located (10 minutes to the beach, 10 minutes to downtown, restaurants within walking distance), the “busy “road was never an issue, it was dead quiet at night. We had a great time in Charleston, and at Folly Beach, and will definitely be back!

Visit to Low Country
We enjoyed our visit to Charleston and surrounding low country. This house location is just across the river from Charleston and also 15 minutes to Folly Beach (without traffic). The house was clean, the kitchen was well equipped with oven, toaster oven, microwave, full size fridge, and big sink. We walked to the nearby grocery store and grilled one night. The house has a fun backyard with lights, canal-like waterway, fire pit, gardens, gas grill, and even chickens. Sarah, the host, was very communicative about everything.

Perfect for our infant son
We had a mini family vacation in Charleston with our 18 month old son. It was so nice that there was a pack n play and portable high chair and we didn’t have to pack ours. It wasn’t too far from downtown and it worked well for our visit!

Home away from home
Sara’s property was perfect for our stay! We had all the amenities we needed and more! She even left fresh eggs in the fridge for us to have breakfast with. Snacks and water were also provided! We enjoyed being close to Folly beach and all Charleston has to offer! On our next stay we hope to enjoy canoeing in the water in the back yard. Stores, gas stations, and restaurants were also located on the same street! We wish our stay could have been longer. We hope to be back again soon. -Elisabeth + Ryan
