This is not a typical short-term rental; it is not a renovated dependency or a newly constructed unit in an old neighborhood, nor is it situated on a tiny lot in a questionable or remote area. The old hardwood floors, tall ceilings, original moldings, plasterwork, windows, and doors exude a special warmth, character, and charm that is very difficult to achieve in new construction. The exterior copper roof and guttering provide additional warmth and character. It`s the real deal!

*If needing early check-in or late check-out please DO NOT ask until the day before check-in at earliest due possible last minute rentals. If you absolutely NEED it, I would suggest renting the night prior*

*Pet Policy: Only Small Pets under 25 pounds (maximum of 2) allowed with prior written approval ($200 non-refundable fee per pet).Must have authorization prior to reservation.*

St. Philip Square offers a city block of historic elegance right in the heart of Charleston’s vibrant Cannonborough district. Just one block to King Street, walkable to Charleston’s world renowned dining, attractions and shopping along King Street.

We’ve stayed in numerous VRBOs in Charleston and this is by far our favorite! Perfect location for exploring downtown. Such a cute fountain courtyard and shockingly quiet for the proximity to King St. The unit was clean, well stocked, and communication pre, during and post stay were fantastic! We will definitely be back!

We loved the location and outdoor seating areas. The apartment was spotless and very comfortable. Only recommendation for improvement would be black out curtains in the back bedroom as the neighboring porch lights do shine in.

Super cute accommodations with your own private garden. Close to shops and restaurants but not right in the middle of all people or traffic. Easy to park, easy to get on the highway to explore the surrounding area outside of downtown. I would definitely stay again.

Family trip

We brought my parents to Charleston for the first time and this place was perfect for two couples. The beds were very comfortable and we enjoyed the courtyard area as well. The kitchen had everything we needed for lite breakfasts and the off-street parking was incredibly convenient. We would definitely stay here again!
