The good: Location was great. Walking distance to Shem Creek restaurants. Short drive to downtown Charleston. The living room and dining room furniture was in good shape & comfy. The mattresses were quite comfy as well.The bad: The bedroom linens did not appear clean. They had dark spots on most of the sheets, (not sure what from) and found hair on the pillowcases. Most of the linens we found in the closets were the same, but we did find a set of new sheets that we were able to replace them with. Not fun to check in late in the evening and have to remake the beds.The backyard is quite small but didn't really care that much since we didn't have kids or dogs, but the patio furniture was rusted with stained and dirty cushions, also found the BBQ grill grates and burners were very rusty so we didn't use that either. Generally, the outdoor space was not very inviting.Overall, the experience was not terrible, but more attention to cleanliness would go a long way to making this a 4–5-star rental.

We have stayed at this house a few times and the location never disappoints. Joe is a great host, super communicative and the house is great for our family. We walk to the marina, jet to the beach and can be in downtown Charleston within 15 mins. The neighborhood is so quiet and with walkable beer y dining and coffee … what is not to love?

We had a great time while staying here. The cottage was very clean and well-stocked for our extended visit. The location was perfect for walking to many of the nearby restaurants and coffee shops.The owner, Joe, was easy to communicate with & he responded quickly when there was a minor issue. We highly recommend staying here & look forward to returning in the future.
