Private, Peaceful, & Immaculately Clean
I personally clean and prepare the cottage after every guest. This isn’t a quick turnover — it’s a careful reset so each guest arrives to a spotless, welcoming space that feels brand new. My cleaning fee simply reflects that level of care and pride, guest consistently mention how exceptionally clean and well cared-for it is.

Summary: Quiet peaceful stay in a neighborhood that was close to the airport, grocery stores, restaurants and downtown Charleston. Hospitality was exceptional with homemade cookies and wine waiting for us. Hosts responded to messages in a timely manner. We will definitely choose to stay here if we get back to Charleston.
