Private courtyard with off-street parking for two smaller cars or one huge truck. Walk out the door to the King Street design and restaurant district, the Visitor Center, the Farmers Market, and everything Charleston has to offer.

It includes a entirely equipped open kitchen, a living and dining room and a powder room downstairs, a master bedroom with a king bed, a second bedroom with two twin beds and a bathroom upstairs. Also supplied is a washer/dryer, flat screen TV with cable, hi-speed internet, and a docking station. The outdoor area includes a table and chairs.

IMPORTANT!!! Please take notice that a sizable adjacent development is scheduled to start in December 2024 and will last through 2026. This work will pretty much affect all businesses and residences in the area, including all legal short term units in peninsular Charleston (our neighborhood is the only one where owners are not required to reside on the property during guest stays). The City accepts work M-SA, 7AM to 6PM. It is also possible that there will be concrete work allowed earlier in the day. It will unfortunately be disruptive for everybody. The bright side is there will be a new park adjacent to us upon completion and we won’t stare onto an empty unmaintained parking lot.

Tips and Tricks to get the perfect vacation home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summertime is high season in the Charleston area area. Book your Charleston area rental home in the Spring or Fall to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• The sooner your group can book, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked early. Booking your vacation rental six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guides have discounts for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• To start, have your family commit to dates and a budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your group requires. 1850 Charleston Single - Historic District: Walk to everything has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the host before you reserve the vacation property. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to determine what bed configuration is optimal for your group.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• To make certain that damages are not attributed to your family's stay, note any problem areas when you arrive. Contact the host immediately to relay your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent many issues.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
