    A charming cottage located in the heart of Shem Creek just over the bridge in Mt. Pleasant. The cottage consists of 2 bedrooms each with queen size beds and one bathroom. Living area opens into the kitchen with a dining table for four and coastal chic decor. Enjoy the spacious yard while dining al fresco or walk to one of the great restaurants near by. Located a block from the waters of Shem Creek and you can rent kayaks and paddle boards right at the waters edge. In a 4 block radius there are 18 restaurants and bars, 2 coffee shops, a beverage super store, a farmers market, and 2 antique malls. The heart of downtown Charleston is a 12 minute drive and the beach at Sullivan's Island is 3 miles away. The Historic district of the Old Village is walking distance and offers many beautiful antebellum homes, several nice shops and a first class restaurant.

The little cottage is very accurately depicted in the listing. We enjoyed the shady courtyard and privacy fence with our dog. The courtyard is a shared space with other guests but the other couple with dog were super friendly and our dogs had fun together. It was so nice to have a well equipped kitchen and laundry machines during our stay. The beds were super cloud like and comfy. Very walkable to local shem creek park and multiple restaurants. Although in a very busy spot, the parking and private outdoor space felt very relaxing and soothing.
