Great stay in Charleston
My parents stayed here and had a great time. They had a real Charleston experience in a neighborhood near king. It is a little walk but the space was perfect with a clean and updated bathroom, laundry, kitchen, and living area. They felt safe and would stay here again.

Location and Comfort
First off, the location of this place is excellent. Close to downtown, but quiet. I walked everywhere. There is a nice little grocery store a few blocks away that I utilized, and the prices were not too bad, and the selection was pretty impressive for the size of the store. Everything in the house worked well. It was hot outside but cool inside. Good shower pressure. Bed was comfy and it was nice to go upstairs and chill out at the end of the day. Dog and cat were friendly and allowed lots of pets. I'd stay here again if I was ever to visit Charleston again.

Thoughtful hosts
Arriving in a downpour, George showed up at our car with two umbrellas. Both he and Therese offered help whenever they could during our stay in their quaint carriage house. We didn't cook but the kitchen was well equipped -- the bottle of wine and snacks were nice touches. A thermal lunch box and the washer and dryer came in handy during our exploration of Charleston and the nearby beaches and birding sites. (Therese is half of Two Sisters' Tours)

Top to bottom it was perfect! All the spaces I needed for some time away to be refreshed: loved reading in the sitting room, used the well appointed kitchen, comfortable bedroom, and enjoy the lovely yard and sweet pets all in the heart of charming residential historical Charleston. Therese and George were so helpful, it was easy to make myself at home.

This is a beautiful 1 bedroom guest house that was full of Charleston charm! Off street parking in a gated driveway was provided as was a delicious bottle of wine. This is a great location within a reasonable walking distance to several fantastic restaurants. Therese and George were responsive and just genuinely nice hosts. We will definitely visit them again!

The unit is conveniently located near the historic district and a short walk to downtown.
Therese also runs a walking tour of historic and architectural sites that is well worth taking.

Loved this property!! It was so quiet and in the heart of Charleston! Everything was easily walkable and if not then was only a 5-6$ uber/lyft ride. The owners were so kind and easy to get ahold of in a very fast manner. We would definitely stay here again in a heart beat!!!
