Other things to note There is a fenced in area behind the property that is used for storage of landscaping material (bags of mulch, soil, etc) While its separated from the backyard by a fence, and privacy provided by plants and bushes, you may notice a man dropping off/picking up material during the day, (There isn't much noise, and he won't disturb you.) But I like my guest to be aware

We loved Jim’s cottage! It had everything we needed and more. Jim was incredibly responsive and the location was in close proximity to everything we wanted to see in Charleston! 10/10 would stay here again.
The house is very clean and well kept with a great yard! It is pretty close to every area of town. We really appreciate the snacks and wine the host left for us! We will definitely stay here again!
Cute, comfy, and amazingly well stocked. If you plan on cooking during your stay, youll find all you need in terms of pots, pans, pantry stock and dishware. The beds are comfy, instructions are clear, and the cottage was well cleaned. Both front and backyard are fenced and securely contained our dog. The owner was very responsive. We enjoyed our stay!
The house was very well decorated, very clean and comfy beds! Super kind the owner had some drinks and snacks set out for us upon arrival which was great not having to rush to the store. Owner is very quick to respond and always very helpful. Outdoor area is so cute and enjoyed while staying here.
We got to site see a lot of historical locations. The location of the house made it possible to travel all over Charleston. Very convenient. Adorable set up of the house.
Very nice owner, super responsive and helpful. The yard was perfect for our 2 dogs and we even sat outside in the rain under a patio cover. Flowers, decorations, books, movies, games, kitchen supplies. It really was like being at home. This isn't very close to the beach. But we had a very nice weekend here.
I was visiting my son for the holidays and needed a place to stay. This house was perfect. Loved walking around the yard looking at the plants or sitting outside on the covered patio. The house was decorated for Christmas. It was well-stocked for me to cook meals. The host communicates quickly. There is a guest book with recommendations. The host even offered a bottle of wine! Great host. Darling place. I enjoyed my stay.
The Charleston rental was located in a less than favorable neighborhood. However it was within 15 - 20 minutes of events, shopping and restaurants. The host, Jim, was super nice, helpful and very hospitable. We did see quite a few roaches in the house and our dog had an allergic reaction to a flea infestation in the yard, which ended up costing us over $300. We had to take her to the emergency vet clinic. I would not stay in this rental again b/c of the team to our fur baby. The host was the bestest.
Awesome place! House is cute & has everything you need & then some. Coming in late to snacks on the table, fruit in the fridge and a bottle of wine was so refreshing. Jim also has a small medicine cabinet stocked with drugstore items to use at our disposal & while I didn’t use any of this, the gesture was such a nice touch. The backyard is even better than the pictures! We enjoyed having lunch on the back table, and I snagged a cherry tomato from the garden that was so fresh and delicious. My two dogs also enjoyed the fenced in yard!
Jim has a list of suggestions of places to go, places to eat, etc but my favorite was at the end for chain restaurants: “chain restaurants: I don’t recommend any, but if you want to go to one, google what’s around”. I agree, Jim!! :p
The neighborhood was quiet & safe. I would definitely stay here again!
If you think you’ve seen cozy, think again. This 3-bedroom cottage near downtown Charleston is a hidden gem in the most unexpected of places. Tucked in a rougher, gritty part of town, this cottage feels like stepping into a warm hug after a day of navigating the urban chaos. The street outside may be bustling with that raw energy only a true city neighborhood can offer—vibrant, loud, and alive—but inside, it’s a whole other world.You’ll walk into the living room and instantly feel the stress of the city melt away. The place is *cozy* in the truest sense of the word. Soft lighting, big plush couches that practically swallow you whole, and a vintage vibe that makes you feel like you’ve discovered a secret sanctuary. Every inch of this cottage is designed for comfort and relaxation, from the rustic charm of the kitchen, complete with open shelving and quirky little touches, to the bedrooms that feel like an oasis in a storm—think thick, cloud-like comforters and beds that’ll make you want to cancel all plans for a nap.Now, let’s talk backyard. In this part of town, you might not expect to find such a tranquil retreat—but that’s what makes this place so special. The backyard is a perfect little urban escape, filled with personality. There’s a fountain that draws you in as soon as the sun starts setting, surrounded by mismatched chairs and fairy lights hanging from the fence like little bursts of hope. It’s the kind of space that makes you want to crack open a cold drink, thro
My son and i stayed with the dog. The fenced in yard was great for them to run around. The location was close to everything and quiet. We enjoyed our time here!
Place was great. Quiet neighborhood except for the occasional commercial airliner or military jets from nearby AFB. Communication with the owner was stellar and there are many instructions throughout the house. Backyard is cozy and perfect for just hanging out but beware for garden spiders/orb weaver/banana spiders all over. No real threats to us. Honestly felt at home.
Had a water leak in the bathroom and couldn’t rent it so we had to find a hotel that takes dogs. I was so stressed out. They did reimburse me for my rental and paid for half the hotel.
Location great to access any/everything Charleston
Home was decorated for the holidays, very clean. Host goes above and beyond to provide supplies guests might need. Was a bit rowdy outside for New Year’s Eve. We enjoyed our stay!
Could not have been better-kind and super-thoughtful host, comfortable home, lovely neighborhood. Totally peaceful except when planes fly overhead, but even that seemed like no big deal in the relaxing atmosphere of the back garden. Exactly the break from stress we needed! Highly recommended!
