This home provides comfortable, "tucked away" feeling both inside and out. It has a vintage bungalow vibe and has thoughtfully updated throughout. The interior design esthetics and accent pieces made it feel like home versus a few rooms to be used. We did encounter a minor problem with the shower fixture, but the host was very responsive in addressing it. Our only suggestion is to consider improving the comfort of the couch in living room. Overall this is an excellent property for both short and longer stays in the Charleston area.

This location was perfect! We could walk to eateries and we were 15 minutes from our son. We travel a lot and this is one of our new favs! The house is super clean and has special touches( plush towels, chocolates, fresh water, a notecard and Charleston magnet, freshly cut grass, and the list goes on) to make you feel welcomed. A deck for cornhole and fenced yard for dog. Neighborhood was safe and quiet!We will be back!

This house was very clean. The outdoor space was perfect for our grandchildren and pets to run around and explore. We needed a quick getaway for the 4th of July due the recent loss of our son n law. Your away from the crowds but close to it all, if you want to be. Booking was easy. The owners were very responsive before we booked our stay with a question we had. Thanks for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home.

Southern Charm

From the moment we walked in, this lovely house felt like home away from home. Thoughtful touches like the owners' kind, handwritten welcome note, comfortable bed/ linens, indoor/ outdoor games, extra ice in the freezer, a wine chiller and pretty glasses - the owners thought of it all to make our stay amazing! The neighborhood was quiet and safe - we could walk to adorable local restaurants, take a quick ride to downtown Charleston, or drive to Folly Beach to relax. Our family loved staying here and hope to return again soon!

Avondale Retreat

Wonderful vacation home to get away from it all! Outdoor covered patio with ample comfortable seating and dining area, outdoor TV, and fire pits as well as large tree shaded yard that is fully fenced. This dog friendly home is well equipped inside with comfortable beds, large closets, luxury towels and linens, and open kitchen and dining area with large center island/counter and chairs. There was a 75” smart TV in living room and quaint private sitting area on the front porch. A perfect retreat!

We enjoyed our Thanksgiving here. Our son and young family live nearby and came over for the meal. Large kitchen worked well. The covered deck was a bonus for dining and entertainment. Grand dog loved the fenced backyard. Beautiful Charleston weather for walking and biking in the neighborhood and greenway. Owner very responsive to any questions!

Incredibly cozy and perfectly located

My wife and I stayed here with our sub-two year old daughter and it was perfect. Clean and modern, very comfortable, walkable to all the Avondale things and extremely convenient 5-10 minute drive to anything on the peninsula. We loved the outdoor couch, fire pit and TV at night. Would love to stay here again next time!

Lovely home in safe neighborhood.

We had a wonderful stay at this Vrbo rental! The home is within walking distance of several restaurants and a great little coffee shop all while being tucked away in a quiet and safe neighborhood. The backyard and covered deck were highlights, especially with the fire pit and TV—we enjoyed movie nights outside almost every night. The kitchen was beautifully appointed, and the bedrooms were very comfortable. The location across from a church means you’ll hear the bells, but you get used to it quickly. Our dog felt right at home, and we’d definitely choose to stay here again on our next visit to Charleston! Highly recommended.

Absolutely Stunning Bungalow

This two-bedroom bungalow was absolutely gorgeous. The owners must be interior designers because everything that could be done to make each room in their house perfect - was done. My wife and I were there during a very HOT weekend, and (thankfully) the AC worked flawlessly. The backyard was HUGE and came with cornhole and bocce games - with plenty of room to play. There is a large covered patio area with outdoor seating for six. Their outdoor furniture was the most comfortable I've ever sat on. They also had an outdoor mounted TV under the covered area, but it was too hot out, so I didn't try to use it. Before arrival, the owner was kind enough to let us know that they had a fig tree producing fruit, so as soon as we got to the property, my wife picked several of them and made us a snack. They were great! A large flat-screen TV is mounted in the living room above the fireplace, and there are TVs in each bedroom. All TVs were on Dish Network. The kitchen was very well appointed with every appliance we could have wanted. My wife especially loved the gas range. Make sure to press the button on the back of the range before you cook - you will be blown away. The location was within easy walking distance to five local bars/restaurants. And there are three large supermarkets within a five-minute drive. The location of the house is between downtown Charleston and Folly Beach, so for me it was perfect. We're big fans of this property, and we'll be back!
