A white picket fence marks the address adding ambiance and privacy to the double porches. Upon entering the home you'll be delighted by the unique front door and know you have arrived somewhere special. The first room to the left you will appreciate the library with a diverse collection of books, a huge dining table and a bar for afternoon drinks.

Open the pocket doors and you will be in the parlor with one of seven fireplaces that are original to the home. Parlors are quintessential to Charleston homes for entertaining or afternoon tea. Down the hall you will find a powder room, followed by a cozy kitchen, equipped with a dainty retro refrigerator, induction cooktop, kettle, toaster oven, and a 1940s era french sink.

Appreciate your meals at the table for two while the sunlight filters in through the shaded garden walkway. Across the hall is room No. 6 with a king bed and a place to hang your clothes in the rosy glow of the modern lamps. Positioned in the center of the home, this room is peaceful and calming. To freshen up, you will have your choice of a full bath appointed with a vintage claw foot tub across the hall or to the right there is a second bathroom with a shower.

At the end of the hall sits bedroom No. 8 that we refer to as the Garden Room. Cozy with a full sized bed, a shower, vanity, and fireplace. You will have access to a modest covered porch that enters into the enchanting and secluded garden. If visiting in the winter, don't forget to pick off some oranges from our tree shading the garden for your morning juice or beverage.

Josephine's apartment has been thoughtfully furnished with eclectic vintage pieces, funky artwork, and a collective of plants in neat pots throughout this home adding to this ideal Charleston hideaway.

Getting the best vacation property experience:

Sticking to your rental budget:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Book your Charleston area rental home in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Charleston area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some hosts offer discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Charleston area area travel guides that include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Charleston area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Make a plan and pick the rightrental home:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your dates, and choose a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Josephine's Garden Apartment Steps From King St. In A Neatly Renovated 1882 Home has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is commonly accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, contact the property management company before you book your home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches.
• Some properties allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Considerations for your stay:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few concerns.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Note any issues with the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute arises.
• Respect your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Re-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at departure. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out 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 you have a excellent vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
