About this property
Unique Zen Tiny House 2 mi to Beach ~ Free Bikes! Minutes to Historic Charleston
Experience a unique stay in the Zen Tiny House. This isn't on wheels, but is a modern flat tucked underneath a huge magnolia tree in my backyard with 100-year-old live oaks. Located in a quiet, historic neighborhood in Mt. Pleasant, the beaches are only 2 miles away and downtown Charleston is a 10-15 minute car ride. Use the complimentary bikes to pedal to the beach or be adventurous and ride downtown and catch the spectacular view over the Ravenel Bridge.

Quaint tiny home in a very convenient location! it was perfect for our vacation, the tiny house is very close to the beach and Charleston, so we had plenty of options for things to do! We also appreciated the suggestions for things to do in the guest guide for the tiny house. We had a great time!
The location was perfect - quiet and safe neighborhood with easy access to all the attractions. Cristina was a great host and we would definitely visit again.
The goat was very communicative. Everything we needed was at the property. Accomodations were super cute and clean. Great location. Would definitely stay again and recommend.

Goods as advertised.
In the middle of all sorts of dining and shopping. A quick trip over the bridge and you're in downtown Charleston. The host was friendly and gave us lots of recommendations for the beach and 4th of july. Would definitely stay again next time we are in town.
Amazing stay great experience only have two things better water pressure and a better shower head other then that amazing stay great host and amazing property would recommend
We loved our stay at the tiny house! It's clean, spacious, private and so cute! My husband and I were in town for my brother's wedding and opted to rent the tiny house instead of staying in a hotel. We loved it and will be back next time we visit!

The hubs and I took a 5 day trip without the kiddos, and this was the perfect little spot! Everything was clean and well kept. We loved having bike access for all of the nearby restaurants, Shem Creek, and stores. Cristina was a great host and we will definitely be back in the future!
We booked the Zen Tiny House for our 1 year wedding anniversary trip to Charleston. We loved staying here! It is only about a 10 minute drive to Charleston and in a lovely neighborhood. There were plenty of wonderful restaurants close by if you didn’t feel like traveling to the city. The tiny home itself is absolutely adorable. It was well stocked with essentials and had plenty of items in case you forgot something. We had never stayed in a tiny home before, but we now have high expectations for future trips! Cristina was very responsive and answered any questions you had regarding the tiny home and local places to stop at. She had directions on how to take a bike ride to Sullivans Island, and different literature for sights to see/places to eat. I would absolutely recommend staying at the Zen Tiny House, and will plan to stay there on our next trip to Mount Pleasant!

We never fell from the balcony and managed to negotiate the ladder even at our chronologically challenged ages. What a sweet little Zen nest. Christina was wonderfully communicative and the setup of the house was thoughtfully arranged. Amenities were ample and the karma was absolutely delightful.

Cozy cottage!
Thank you so much for a comfortable and cozy night! The bananas and granola bars were such a nice surprise! It saved us from having to go out for breakfast before heading to the Yorktown for our Cub Scout trip. A great time saver! Thank you! Amanda & Sam
It is a "Tiny House!" Everything was just the right size for me. I loved the bikes and being able ride to the beach. Everything I needed was in walking distance. Lyft helped get us to the farther places we wanted to visit. All in all I enjoyed my stay. This would be an amazing get away for someone who wants to spend time reflecting, regrouping or renewing what they are here to do. Oh! Stella and Thelma are very sweet.

Reminded me of a cute little Barbie House
Hey, don't knock the cuteness before you try it. This tiny house rocks!. It has clean lines, IKEA-style, and the creature comforts that are needed. The hostess is delightful and very helpful. It is close to all things Charleston without sacrificing your shekels to stay downtown. We enjoyed several great restaurants nearby too. Did I fail to mention that it is walking distance to Starbucks? Anyway, don't be afraid to climb a ladder. This tiny gem will warm your heart.
