As others have mentioned in reviews that we saw, the pictures don’t do it justice. It has a beautiful view! All kitchen supplies were there to use and the bed was super comfortable! We were here to tour Charleston. It was so nice to come back to a beautiful home after a long day in the city.

Beautiful River view! We enjoyed hanging on the dock and soaking up the views. There are many good restaurants to choose from in the area. The Angel Oak Tree is spectacular! Spent a day at Folly Beach and visited the Charleston tea farm, which is very interesting.

Beautiful property Nice pool and dockEnough room for me and two kids Owner was nice, just kind of awkward being so close to them. Hard to manage with a small kiddo with the layout of the home. I felt like I was up and down stairs 30 times. Driveway was hard to maneuver until we got the hang of it.

Beautiful property with outdoor spaceson 2 levels overlooking the river. Lots of shorebirds on the water and the flowers are around the yard added extra majesty. Kitchenhas Kurig and sufficient pans and utensils. There is no toaster or regular coffee maker which should not be an issue for most short term rentals. The salt water pool wasalso beautiful and the crown of the property. Host lives adjacent and was extremely helpful and friendly.
