Island Oasis—Near Downtown
Apartment was very clean and great location between the beach and downtown Charleston.

Bungalow Under The Oaks
If you’re looking for a cute little place to chill for the weekend, this is a great choice! While the bungalow is a little smaller than anticipated (for 2 adults/2dogs), the fully fenced yard makes up for everything else. The yard is pretty much completely shaded by beautiful oak trees, and my dogs loved every second we spent out there. The road is busy during the day, but at night, it quiets down, and all you can hear are the cicadas.

New Loft in Historic Summerville
Absolutely lovely. Cozy space, plenty of room for 2 people! Jacquelynn was great at responding and was very kind!

Green Garden Studio @greengardenstudio2017
This was the cutest above garage studio. It is very well done, clean and comfortable. The property is very well maintained- we would definitely stay here again! The AC was not working properly when we arrived but Holly responded immediately and got it working. Highly recommend!!

Liz Lane Cottage- entire guesthouse
Our stay was amazing! Brooke was a fantastic host who always responded quickly and was very friendly whenever we saw her or her family. When we were caught in poor weather, she messaged me and gave us umbrellas so we could stay dry during our trip. A great experience and we all hope to stay here again!!

Spacious Daniel Island Apartment
We had an amazing stay. Everything was extremely clean, bed and living room furniture are so comfortable. David and Shirlie are super responsive, very clear with all communication and gave excellent restaurant recommendations. The nearby park and lake were a dream. We caught several fish and enjoyed the peaceful scenery on Daniel Island. Highly recommended 100/10!

Romantic Beach Style Cottage close to everything!
Clean & conscious hosts! Mindful of needs that may crop up, lovely home & family. Flexible! Perfect oasis away from the bustle of Charleston.

5 STAR 1bd/1ba Shem Creek Retreat in #1 MtP area!
This was our second time at Treehouse and it was just as good as the first! Katey and Jules are great hosts. The location is amazing - 10 minutes to downtown Charleston and 10 minutes to the beach. We love walking down Coleman to Shem Creek and enjoying the sights and sounds of the marsh. We love patriots point park and taking the water taxi to downtown. You won’t find a better a place for a couple getaway!

*Old Village/Shem Creek Charmer*NEW 2BR Guesthouse
My husband and I had a wonderful 5 day stay at Georgia's apartment. Georgia's attention to detail was evident in each room. The furnishings and décor brings comfort and warmth to each space. We enjoyed a lunch of bbq ribs at Saltwater Cowboys (Shem creek) while we watched dolphins swim and pelicans dive for fish. We walked off our meal while striding down the Shem Creek boardwalk. We spent 2 days at Folly beach county park, soft sand and water temperature at 77F was lovely. We took advantage of the umbrella/sand chair rental which is delivered to your chosen beach spot. Upon request, Georgia provided us with big soft beach towels. Lastly, must say Mt. Pleasant is beautiful. I ran throughout the neighborhood (in training for a marathon), each house is beautifully distinctive, folks wave, and many bits of the town's history is displayed on sign plaques throughout. It was a great vacation for us!

Spacious 1 bedroom cottage in Avondale
My partner and I really enjoyed staying at Derek and Sarah’s guest house cottage in Avondale. Even though it was located in a suburban area, we found the cottage feeling quiet and secluded once inside. The interior was cozy, the bed was comfortable, and the kitchen very usable to cook some of our meals. We drove to Charleston, and we found the parking space easy to use and clearly marked. Derek and Sarah were very friendly and responsive with any questions we had. With a car, it was an easy drive to our visit to Folly’s Beach, our carriage ride in the French Quarter, shopping at the Charleston City Market, the harbor area for our sunset cruise, the Magnolia Plantation and Gardens, the Charleston Tea Garden, and a lot more. It was a perfect launching pad for a really memorable trip.

Driftwood Cottage
Very clear and simple instructions, would stay here again!

My Happy Place
This was mine and my wife's first time in the Charleston area. I highly recommend this host, we have nothing but great things to say. the ability to check in early, the recommendations to food, activities and places to see, the comfort of the home and the thoughtfulness of having them leave a beautiful note and a bottle of bubbly for us due to our 8 year anniversary. I couldn't have asked for anything else. Thank you very much for everything. I would definitely stay here again.

The James: “Tiny” Home b/w Downtown & Folly
If I could give this stay 10 stars, I absolutely would! From the moment we arrived, everything was beyond perfect. The space was spotless, beautifully designed, and full of thoughtful touches that made it feel like a dream getaway. Every corner was photo-worthy — seriously, bring your camera because you’ll want to capture it all! The host was immaculate — kind, responsive, and truly went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. You can tell so much care and intention went into every detail of the home. It felt like stepping into a Pinterest board, but better! We made memories that will last a lifetime and honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re lucky enough to stay here — take it! You’ll leave refreshed, inspired, and already planning your next trip back. 🌟✨

The Violet Villa w/no cleaning fee
I didn’t want to leave! The description was accurate, but this community was more adorable than we ever imagined! Absolutely awesome and convenient! The hosts went above and beyond, and I’d stay here again and again. Super affordable and definitely one of our top Air BnB experiences to date.

Cozy Cottage! 5 mins from Kiawah!
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Lucy’s super cute cottage. It was clean, well appointed, and with the perfect amount of space for a couple. Although we didn’t get a chance to try it out (a little too chilly), the outdoor bathtub was a charming feature, in addition to the other outdoor spaces available. We loved the close proximity to the beach and to downtown Charleston. We felt very comfortable and rested really well. We would absolutely come back to Lucy’s cottage, and I’m sure you will feel the same way!

Walk to restaurants! New, beautiful & clean home
This is a great spot to either stay on the island or venture into downtown Charleston or other areas! 20 min away with traffic but there are multiple ways to get to and from where you want to go. Place looks just like the pictures & the water pressure in the shower is lovely!

Beach, downtown, Alhambra Hall weddings so close!
Our stay at Robert’s place was excellent. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet. It was easy to get to lots of different destinations from the place. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.

Cozy Apartment in Mount Pleasant
Dorothy's stay was perfect! It's such a cozy apartment and had everything we needed and more. The neighborhood is beautiful and it was easy to get to downtown Charleston (~15 min away) and other locations via Uber/Lyft. She was so easy to communicate with and quick to respond. I'd highly recommend!

James Island "La Casita" Nestled btw Beach & City
We enjoyed our stay so much! The space was very clean and neat. I quick drive to the beach and to the city! The James Island area was amazing! We will definitely stay again if we are in the area!

Summerville’s Tiny Oak Hideaway
our stay at the Tiny Oak was fabulous. We had everything we needed and more. we love being able to walk to everything.

Charming Guest Cottage in Old Mount Pleasant, SC
Kari’s guest house was perfect for our quick weekend getaway to Charleston. We were able to hop in the car and get downtown in about 10 minutes, shoot to the beach in 15 and walk to Pitt Street bridge and back for a nice long walk in the morning. The space was clean and check in/out instructions were clear. Mike offered us bikes to use and even gave us chairs for the beach. Such a great weekend and we will definitely be back!

The Guesthouse at Old Orchard
Spent four nights with a friend in Brandy and Bill’s wonderful guest getaway and wish we could have stayed many more nights. Very clean and well appointed space — the kitchen had everything you need (and then some). Bathrooms were spacious and provided towels and washcloths. Beds were comfortable and there is so much space in this guesthouse. It’s in a quiet neighborhood and the property is very relaxing too. Brandy has created a cozy home away from home and we hope to return again. So many nice well appreciated touches. It’s perfectly located in the area too — so close to many of the attractions and also very close to grocery stores and restaurants. Highly recommend with no reservations!

Shem Creek Bungalow: Coastal Comfort Redefined
Stayed here on a recommendation and the place was perfect. Would recommend it to anyone interested in private little getaway.

Guesthouse Convenient to Charleston, Shem Creek, and Beaches
We enjoyed our stay. The place was clean, updated, and the perfect size for a couple. Neighborhood was filled with nice homes, was walkable, and very safe and quiet. We were within walking distance to several restaurants within a few blocks and walked to a great, nearby coffee shop for coffee and breakfast. Location was a plus for us; a quick car ride to Charleston, plus only 30 minutes to Folly Beach where we went for a day trip to the beach. Close enough to the action, but a nice hideaway from the hustle and bustle. Hosts were responsive - would definitely recommend!
