Summary:
OP2025-05860
Courtyard Cottage pairs historic charm with Casa Zoë’s signature style.
Tucked just off the street, it offers two well-appointed bedrooms, a full bath, and a private brick courtyard made for morning coffee or late-night conversation.
Inside, you’ll find curated furnishings, a fully equipped kitchen, and the kind of comfort that makes you want to linger.
All just a short walk from Charleston’s best dining, shopping, and historic sights.
The Space:
Courtyard Cottage, part of the historic 1790 James Sparrow House, blends Charleston history with Casa Zoë’s signature layered design. Recently revitalized, this 2BR escape was built for connection, comfort, and a true sense of place—steps from James Beard dining, Sugar Bakeshop, and the city’s most charming boutiques.

• Washer/dryer for guest convenience

After booking, you’ll receive our comprehensive Casa Zoë Welcome Guide—filled with local recommendations, house details, check-in info, and thoughtful extras to help you make the most of your stay.
The Neighborhood:
Tucked into one of Charleston’s most walkable neighborhoods, this part of Cannonborough–Elliotborough blends historic charm with the city’s most exciting culinary and creative energy.
It’s where locals go for coffee, dinner, and boutique shopping. You’ll feel like a Charleston insider from the moment you arrive.
You’re close to everything - yet just far enough from the bustle to enjoy slow mornings and quiet evenings on the porch. This is the Charleston people fall in love with.
Getting Around:
Stride with purpose or give your app a quick tap! Getting around here is a breeze.
Stroll at your own pace to discover neighborhood treasures, or summon an Uber with ease for a jaunt to the beach or a city escapade.
Everything's within reach, with ample rides to whisk you away. In this pedestrian haven, you reign supreme, with convenience as your scepter and the streets your kingdom.
From your doorstep, you can easily walk to:
• Sugar Bakeshop (just around the corner) for morning treats
• Chubby Fish, Vern’s, South Bound, and Xiao Bao Biscuit for unforgettable dinners
• Babas, The Daily, and Second State for wine, espresso, or a midday break

Cute place; renovated well; great location- walked to restaurants. Allows dogs which is wonderful & the property is great for dogs. Will be staying here again!
We have stayed here several times now. It is a great location for food and shopping. Has a great vibe with great outside sitting and very private feeling. Highly reccomend!
We truly enjoyed our time here. The patio area with doors open was a treat during the mild weather we had. Lots of great places to get food very close. The unit was quiet, clean and very homey feeling. I will definitely stay here on my visits to Charleston
We stayed in unit C, the Courtyard Cottage. The location was close enough to King Street and far enough away for less crowds. It was a nicely decorated unit with nice finishes. The beds and linens were comfortable. Good coffee beans were provided for coffee, little to no noise except for some street traffic in the mornings. Quick responses to a couple small questions. Overall, nice place.
Very unique and efficient space in such a cool historic city. Charming and historically preserved. Had nearly everything we needed. Close to everything- coffee, restaurants, bakery, rooftop etc. easy 15/20 minute walk to historic district and battery. Huge bonus is the outdoor space. We sat out on the patio every morning and evening. All questions were answered immediately. Easy process. Highly recommend.
Only small issue was nothing opens early. Even coffee shops and convenience stores open 730 at the very earliest.
Charming spot. Loved the decor and extremely comfortable bedding. The location is so convenient to everything. The soup restaurant across the street really hit the spot
Loved everything about this property! Will definitely be staying there again very soon. Thank you!

Great Charleston apartment!
Had a wonderful time on our long weekend in Charleston staying at this property. It was beautifully decorated and the perfect space for two couples. Such a central locations to tons of bars and restaurants. The host was very responsive throughout the process.
Had a great time in Charleston at this VRBO. Perfect size for the 3 of us. Enjoyed sitting on the little patio (between the rain showers), great location to walk to King Street and all the great restaurants. We had rented a car so was nice to have an assigned parking spot off the street. Definitely heard the “neighbors” upstairs, but usually the noise wasn’t too early or too late in the day. Would definitely stay here again!
The property was very cute, perfect size for 2, and great location. The only drawback was the loud neighbors. This is one of 3 units that share walls and a courtyard and the other units could be heard walking above us, hanging out outside on the porch, and generally enjoying themselves late into the night (every night we were there. Besides that, it was great.
We enjoyed this property because it was well designed and appointed, and was perfect for living both indoors and out. The way the patio is located with access from the kitchen, the living room and a window to the master bedroom makes you feel like the outdoors is part of the space. And we brought our tiny dogs, and the patio gave them a space to be outside that was easily contained. Because the unit was technically on the lower level, it gave great space above to bring in the light and the air, without being on the same level as anyone walking by. The owners were very flexible and accommodating to let us add a day before and a day after - and we wish we could have stayed longer. We'll definitely consider staying at this location again. It was lovely.
We staid three nights and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The house is beautifully restored and the apartment is very chic with exposed brick in the kitchen and lovely patio with a table and chairs where you can eat a meal just relax. The host gave us a list of recommended restaurants, all within easy walking distance. The apartment is three blocks to the restaurants and shops on King Street. For us, the real treat was walking the Cannonborough Elliotborough neighborhood with so many houses being beautifully restored. Highly recommend this place.
Beautiful apartment, recently renovated. Perfect little place. Love the patio with French doors for both the kitchen and living room. Location is perfect to walk to King, also went to Browns Court Bakery multiple times. Absolutely love having the parking - so crucial downtown.
They are currently doing construction close to the property - not too loud but good to know. Of course it’s always like that in Charleston.
Would most definitely stay here again!
