Summary:
This welcoming one-bedroom, one-bath apartment offers visitors convenient access to all that Charleston has to offer.

Easily walkable to MUSC, College of Charleston, King Street’s most trendy retail and eateries, & more.

The apartment newly underwent a full remodel, finished in spring 2018. Measuring around 500 square feet, the apartment offers one bedroom featuring premium linens and a bathroom with shower. Thoughtful care has been put into crafting a clean and efficient space that offers all of the amenities of a boutique hotel (bath products, high-end towels and linens, hair dryers, iron, wi-fi, premium TV channels, etc.) with the added convenience of a full, chef-ready kitchen, washer/dryer, and a classic Charleston single-style porch for appreciating the nearly year-round comfortable temperatures Charleston offers its visitors.

Booking the best Charleston rental experience:

Getting the best rental home value:

• To get the most suitable vacation home within your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at Charleston area restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Charleston area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• The sooner you can book, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation property 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers frequently offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local Charleston area visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guide magazines contain coupons for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

How to choose and book the best Charleston area rental:

• First, have your family decide on vacation dates and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your group requires. 1BR Historic, Comfortable, & Walkable Downtown Apt has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Charleston area rental home search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible online. If you don't see them listed, email the property owner before you book the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You'll need to determine what is optimal for your vacation.
• If there's a specific Charleston area destination you love, keep an eye out for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before booking
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or charges might be applied to your invoice.

Have a wonderful stay:

• Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Upon check-in, record any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful. Frequently, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental property while you're away! Don't let burglars spoil your holiday.
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to make sure you didn't forget any personal items. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the host is not available, remember to take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
