These two properties share a large professionally turfed backyard. Additionally, a half block down the street, we have another duplex with the Poppy Suite (top floor of grey duplex-3bd/1ba w/two balconies) and the Isla Suite (first floor-4bd/2ba w/porch), both of which share a professionally turfed courtyard. Be sure to check out the individual listings for a full list of amenities.
QUIET HOURS Please note that this listing is situated on the top floor of a beautifully restored historic duplex. Although extensive renovations have been carried out, it is possible to hear occasional noise from the unit below. To ensure a peaceful and comfortable environment, sound machines have been thoughtfully provided in each bedroom. We kindly request that all guests show consideration towards one another by honoring our community's designated "quiet hours" between 10pm and 7am. By being mindful of noise levels during these times, we can maintain a harmonious atmosphere and ensure a restful stay for everyone.
EVENTS Access to the property is restricted to only those individuals included in the reservation, unless prior arrangements have been made and agreed upon.

PARKING You will have one parking space in our private lot. Should your group want additional parking, please contact us to discuss options! We also have one Tesla charger which would need reserved ahead of time.
PRE-APPROVED DOGS WELCOME We wholeheartedly embrace our furry friends! We gladly welcome pups to join you during your stay, with an additional fee of $80 per dog, and a maximum of two dogs per reservation. Because you will be staying in a recently renovated unit within a property that may have other guests, we kindly request that all dogs are well-behaved, trained, and considerate towards fellow humans.

By bringing your pet, you acknowledge and accept full responsibility and liability for their actions and any potential damages.
For the comfort and enjoyment of all guests, we kindly request that dogs are not allowed in the backyard. The yard has been professionally turfed to provide a pristine and pleasant outdoor space. Dog urine can create an unpleasant odor and potentially damage the turf. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in keeping the backyard clean and odor-free for everyone's enjoyment.
CAMERA SECURITY To ensure the safety and security of our property, we have installed exterior cameras. We want to reassure our guests that the footage captured by Ring cameras is strictly confidential and does not violate their privacy expectations. It is important to note that tampering with or obstructing the cameras is strictly prohibited. Any guest found attempting to disable or obscure the cameras may face immediate eviction without a refund. Our intention is solely to maintain a secure environment for everyone's peace of mind.
INCLEMENT WEATHER We have a strict cancellation policy in place. Refunds will only be issued if mandatory evacuations are ordered by The National Weather Service or local government authorities. Please keep in mind that refunds will not be provided if inclement weather in other states prevents guests from reaching Charleston. We highly recommend travelers to consider obtaining travel insurance, especially during months when weather conditions may impact their stay. Furthermore, in the unlikely event of power outages, internet disruptions, or any other situations beyond our control caused by local storms, we will make every effort to resolve the issues promptly. However, we regret that we cannot offer refunds for any inconveniences caused by such circumstances.

Was a bit disappointed with our stay. House is very old and has a smell. The neighbor is not the best. I thought that the marketing of the house was misleading. It’s advertised as a luxury stay, in reality it’s not. Also there’s no backyard as shown on the pictures, that was very disappointing as well. The pictures are from a different property.

We really enjoyed the house! It was perfect for the 3 of us girls to getaway and have some fun! We were a little disappointed in the shared backyard area. Didn’t look as nice as it was in the photos. The listing didn’t mention that dogs couldn’t be in the backyard area, unless we missed it. It was only mentioned to us at check in time. We would have considered an alternate place with a backyard for dogs. But other than that, we enjoyed ourselves and the house was very accommodating for what we needed and location wise in Charleston!!

A home away from home!
The apartment is just as beautiful in person as it appears in the pictures! The hosts were wonderful about communicating check-in, recommendations, and ensuring we were having a good time. Everything you need to cook, do laundry, or even go to the beach is available in the apartment. Itvwas an easy drive to the beach, the Isle of Palms, and downtown Charleston. Very close to the airport too! The only true negative is that it’s a first floor apartment and the upstairs visitors were pretty loud while we were there. If you are a light sleeper, this may not be the place for you, or you may just want to come with earplugs. The hosts supply white noise machines, which is very thoughtful! Definitely check it out!!!

Historical Charleston
The house is quite cute and definitely shows it historic beginnings. If you rent the downstairs unit, please be aware that the upstairs unit is extremely noisy. The first group that was there during our stay awakened us with partying out in the back car park area at 4 AM. The second group that checked in had four young children that ran from one end of the house to the other sounded like a bowling alley. Both groups did not adhere to the owners request to “please remove your shoes” upon entering.
Secondly, the dust and grime around the baseboards in the bedrooms, was amazing. The cleaners need to pay more attention. Also, the bed was zip tied to a headboard, which moved whenever you sat or turned in bed.
These comments are certainly fixable, and if there was better transparency in the booking, listing one would be able to make choices as to whether they want to inhabit the downstairs unit.
