I find it necessary to reserve the right to ask for identification prior to reserving. I am now going from instant booking to a 24 hour period to ascertain that you can provide identification should that be necessary. I am aware that unlike Airbnb, Vacation Rental By Owner no longer vets their guests and it is up to the host.

We are one of very few licensed B&B South of Broad. This striking 1830 kitchen home is located in historic Charleston in the most beautiful "South of Broad" district. The location is peaceful and one block from the Charleston harbor and one half block from gorgeous White Point Gardens. It is within walking distance to eateries, shopping and entertainment.
The health and well-being of our guests is our top priority and we have implemented strict cleaning and disinfecting protocol to mitigate the transmission of COVID-19. Our cleaning team has deployed enhanced cleaning procedures, disinfecting all hard surfaces, spending additional time focusing efforts on cleaning and disinfecting “high-touch” contact points including but not limited to: doorknobs, locks, thermostats, light switches, fan pulls, stair railings, remotes, cabinet handles, and toilets.

A enormous first floor contains a living / dining area featuring two huge fireplaces. A galley kitchen features a Wolf range and hood, Subzero refrigerator and a Bosch dishwasher and Carrera granite counters. The second floor offers a bedroom with queen bed, a remodeled hall bath, a comfortable den and a sunlit sunporch, ideal for a study or calming in the late afternoon. The third floor offers a master suite with a queen size bed, walk in closet, washer/ dryer and a handsome bathroom featuring a charming granite and glass shower.
We are located 20-30 mins. to 6 beaches. Appreciate a day at the beach.
Because of steps and the home is not kid proofed, kids under 3 are not allowed.
Off street parking for one (1) car is supplied. The driveway is rather narrow and should you not feel cozy navigating it, we will leave a parking pass for the street. No events are allowed. The courtyard is available from 9AM to 9PM.
Please note that we adhere to a strict 4:00 check in unless an early check in has been previously approved. We provide parking for one auto. The sleeper couch is not available for sleeping. Please note home rules before reserving. House rules are adhered to stringently and any infringement will vacate your stay without refund.

Our top Charleston area rental property booking tips and tricks:

When to book & When to go:

• In the Charleston area area, The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved very early. Reserving your rental property up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Summer is high season in the Charleston area area. Booking in Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be 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 vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some hosts offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Property managers often offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Charleston area visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides contain coupons for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

How to select the best rental home in the Charleston area area:

• First and foremost, have your family decide on date ranges and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Charming South of Broad Kitchen House has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible online. Otherwise, email the property owner before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what is suitable for your vacation family.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or costs applied to your invoice.
• If there's an individual Charleston area destination you are enamored with, browse homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

More considerations for your visit:

• Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, television set or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent many issues.
• Lock your vacation home while you are out. Keep your property safe!
• At Check-in, document any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent ratings to stimulate future reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
