With its friendly neighbors, cozy restaurants, and tree lined streets, our neighborhood will immerse you in Charleston’s classic charm. This house is perfect for a family or group seeking a fun, culinary and cultural vacation. Popular dining spots in the neighborhood include Xiao Bao Biscuit, Fuel, Porchetta Shop, Southbound, R Kitchen, Chubby Fish and many more! Our guests and neighbors also rave about Welton's Tiny Bakeshop and Kudu Coffee. We recommend going to either for a cup of locally-roasted coffee or their delicious cookies and cakes. The house is only a short walk from the very popular King Street where you will find a multitude of great shops – including antique shops, book stores and fashion boutiques – as well as endless buzzing restaurants and bars.

Location was awesome. The place had a historic charm to it. Very spacious and the two king suites, each with private full bathrooms was a game-changer. And the reserved private parking spot was super useful. Host is very responsive and accommodating!

What a gem! This very quaint and comfortable apartment was a perfect spot to stay for a long weekend to enjoy all that Charleston has to offer. The apartment was well equipped and the bedroom/bathroom were spacious and the beds super comfy. The neighborhood is charming and within easy access of King Street and historic downtown Charleston. Will definitely be back!
