Blue Cottage | Casa Zoë – Your Charleston Escape

Summary:
Walk, Shop and Dine as a Local

The Space:
BLUE COTTAGE is a standalone 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom house with a private porch and courtyard. Unlike a condo, you will not have to deal with neighbors above or below. It is professionally decorated and fully renovated. Located on Cannon Street in the design district of Downtown Charleston, it is a short walk from popular restaurants and bars including two James Beard recipient restaurants. Enjoy some of Charleston's best local dining with Fuel, Xiao Bao Biscuit, The Grocery, and The Ordinary, all located within 3 blocks of the cottage. For a morning sweet treat try Sugar Bakeshop just steps away.

The cottage has hardwood floors, two historic fireplaces (non-fuctioning), high ceilings, wonderful natural light, high definition television, washer dryer, and a charming porch and courtyard.

Linens and towels are included. Household items/appliances include microwave, coffee maker, high-definition television, gas range and electric oven, Le Creuset cookware, disposal, fridge, ice maker, pop-up toaster, tea kettle, hookup to speakers, hairdryer, iron & small ironing board, dishes, tea + fresh coffee and grinder, toilet paper, paper towels, hand and dish soap, shampoo, conditioner, and body wash.


There is off street parking in the lot at 65 Cannon Street which is adjacent to the cottages.

I have a strict no pet policy.

Check-in time is 3:00pm. Check-out is 11:00am.

Blue Cottage is full of character and perfectly charming.

Cancellation policy: 60 day non-refundable.

Getting Around:
There are many ways to get around Charleston. The cottages are in the heart of downtown, so walking is always a viable and often preferred option. Bike rentals are also a great idea and there are two companies closeby--Affordabike on King St. and The Bicycle Shoppe on Meeting St. There are also dozens of cab companies to get you around town and back and forth to the airport. Lastly, there are pedicab and rickshaw services found on main streets around town. They are a really fun way to see the city that we would absolutely recommend!

Other Things to Note:
All guests staying at Casa Zoë have been granted exclusive access to The Wonderer Charleston. This 2-acre private membership adult only club nestled in downtown Charleston is a modern oasis offering resort-style amenities and a Bali-Tulum-inspired atmosphere unparalleled on the peninsula. The property includes a swimming pool, onsite eateries for breakfast, lunch, dinner, trendy cocktails, and of course poolside cabanas! It also includes an indoor gym and fitness studio with daily classes, a recovery room full of spa therapies, private and shared workspaces, live music, and an active calendar of social events.

Please note: availability is not guaranteed without a confirmed reservation. The number of available day passes remains strictly first-come, first-serve. If you plan to enjoy The Wonderer anytime between April 15th - September 1st, we strongly suggest booking in advance to guarantee access.
Any group exceeding 8 or more guests must be approved separately by contacting the Wonderer directly. If using the Pool area, it is required that parties of 8+ rent a Cabana.

The Club has a minimum age requirement of 25 years old (unless you're a member, a guest of a member, or receive a special exception from club management). Some special events may have varying age restrictions.

*Please also note that Bennett Holdings, LLC is not the same company as The Wonderer and offers this as an added perk. If access is not granted to the Wonderer during your stay due to availability, no inconvenience credits will be awarded, and any issues related to your visit at The Wonderer must be directed exclusively to The Wonderer staff.*
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a fireplace and a private pool. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave.
Enjoy recreation amenities such as a fitness center or take in the view from a garden.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Super Cute and Cozy Stay

My sister and I stayed here during my niece’s bachelorette party and we loved being slightly off the beaten path but still in a fabulous location. The apartment is so cute and well designed and beds were very comfortable. The house stayed very cool in the July heat which was probably the most important thing!! We used the day pass to the pool club and had a great relaxing day. Would definitely stay here again.

An oasis in downtown Charleston!

We were delighted with the Casa Zoë blue cottage! It was impeccably decorated, fresh and clean, and extremely accommodating. I traveled to the city with my two friends and having a living space, large bedrooms, an outdoor shower, patio, and lovely kitchen made the stay very enjoyable. It was better than staying in a hotel and so quiet! We would return in a minute. Gorgeous!

Charming cottage in beautiful Charleston

We spent four days in Charleston for a wedding. The cottage was perfect for our party of four. The location was super convenient. It was walking distance to King Street and had several coffee shops, restaurants and bakeries within two block. The cottage itself was clean, well equipped and comfortable seating and beds.

The Blue Cottage is amazing

This was truly the best weekend stay. The cottage and host were amazing. It was perfect for my husband and I and our pups. Location to downtown was perfect. A few minutes walk to dining and shopping. The Blue cottage is stunning and had everything or anything we needed. We definitely plan to stay here again. Highly recommend visiting the Blue cottage for your stay in Charleston.

Charleston Trip

Our stay in Charleston was absolutely perfect. The location of the Blue Cottage at Casa Zoe was fantastic! The home was exactly what we had hoped for, it was only a few blocks away from King Street which made everything so convenient. We plan on coming back to Charleston. We know exactly where we would want to stay, Casa Zoe if it’s available.

Nice people, nice property, poor facts.

We loved the property, it was well appointed and clean. Two things were important to our group. Proximity to the beach, and proximity to the pool area. Both of these things were far from the description we were given. It took repeated requests to get our pool passes, then we find out the pool is not at the property, we needed to get in a car and go on the freeway. This was carefully disguised, and not mentioned in any communication we had. I started my desire clearly, it was glossed over in response. The heat index was 110 the entire time we were there, the pool was an uncomfortable 9 miles away. No outside beverages or food allowed, ridiculous prices for theirs. The well sold assumption of taking a few beverages and sandwiches next door to the pool was a sham. Our guests were rightfully disappointed with this situation, as they had looked over the ad themselves. Whether through careful deception or design, this situation greatly depressed our stay in Charleston. Stevenson and Meg were so gracious when we had car trouble, we can't thank them enough. However, when spending seven or eight thousand dollars on a vacation, trying to verify the exact situation one will be in, knowing the great would be super high, this wasn't acceptable. I hope our hosts will review their ad and it's misdirection. In fairness to others, l can't fail to mention the situation we found ourselves and our guests in.

Work trip

We really enjoyed staying here - it has a very cute set up, is diminutive but all you need for a stay in this interesting city. Only a few teething issues with door locks not working and some minor refurbs that would be easy to fix but otherwise very charming and would definitely stay again. Tucked away as a sort of ‘carriage house’ beside the main house. It is very well located near the restaurant district of Charleston on kings street. We walked everywhere and was in striking distance of two excellent breakfast places (Babas and Holey Bagels). The owners and property managers were very responsive and we really enjoyed our stay. Would throroughly recommend. Look forward to coming back

Great cottage in terrific location

This little house was perfect for my husband, our teenager and me. Roomy enough, comfy beds, outdoor shower which I always love, good sheets and towels, and walking distance to everything in this part of town. Close by there is a cute bagel store (Holey Bagels) and a great little cafe (Babas) that also serves cocktails and is bustling all day. The property manager was really helpful as well. And re: walking to things- it’s right by King street where there are tons of restaurants and shops, we walked all the way to the city market, Rainbow Row and Pineapple fountain. It’s a great home base. Thanks for having us!!!

Fabulous cottage!

Thank you for a wonderful stay in the Blue Cottage. It was perfect for our group of 4. The cottage was close to everything, we could walk to restaurants, shops, sites, etc.. We loved the outdoor shower and the comfy beds. We didn't cook in the house as restaurants were so close and delicious but the kitchen was very well stocked. Perfect little courtyard for morning coffee and afternoon drinks. Great place and would highly recommend.

Great Charleston cottage!

The blue cottage was so cute & perfect for 2 couples! The neighborhood is amazing & full of old Charleston charm, really close to King Street & easy to get wherever you are going. Claire & Steve were really responsive & made sure we had everything we needed. There are a few old house quirks (one of the lights in the bathroom was out, hot water takes a few minutes to heat up) but absolutely nothing that got in the way of a great weekend! The house was really well appointed & the patio was perfect for the spring weather! Checking in & out was super easy as well. Thanks so much Claire & Steve!
