Part of The Compound (Search for "Charleston Compound")

The "Cottage" suite is the ground floor unit.

This 2-bedroom beauty was completely modernized in late 2014. Taken down to the studs, every effort was made to ensure a comfortable stay for our guests. From industrial-grade soundproofing to re-designed porches, no detail was missed.

A simple, efficient open floor plan showcases a living room, bar and kitchen- all within one vantage point. Cozy seating for 7, brand-new stainless steel Bosch appliances, a 2-top bar and 50' flat screen with Direct TV are highlights.

The two bedrooms are just down the hall-

The King Bedroom features the best Malouf Egyptian cotton sheets, pillow-top bed and 6 pillows (both down and polyester). The comforters are hand-made and designed for the Charleston climate. Each duvet cover is professionally cleaned before each guest's arrival. There is a modest closet that stores a suitcases rack, iron and full-length mirror. A 45' flat screen with Direct TV is generously positioned.

The second bedroom was newly refreshed and now has two twin beds, both with the same high-quality linens that you'll find throughout the property.

The two full bathrooms are clean and crisp. A European style glass and tile shower contrasts gorgeously to the white tile floor. All of the finest towels, makeup cloths and Gilchrist & Soames toiletries are supplied.

How to get the best rental experience:

Getting the best rental value:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal SC. Booking your vacation rental in Fall or Spring months is a good way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many management companies supply Charleston area area visitor guides which include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Charleston area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning and picking the perfect Charleston area rental:

• First and foremost, have your group commit to the best dates and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. 2 Short Blocks From King Street has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is often accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, contact the property manager before booking the home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to determine what is best for your vacation group.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before booking
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or charges might be applied to your contract.

More tips for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your smartphone.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas upon check in. Speak to the host immediately to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents quite a few concerns.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be a fantastic source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let crooks spoil your holiday.
• Just before checking out, take a final walk-through to confirm you didn't forget any personal items. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a terrific vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to fix 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.
