**Last Minute Year End Special**

Tucked away South of Broad, on one of Charleston's most famed streets, you will find a unique, historic home that has been converted into two modern apartments with historic touches. This second-floor apartment provides 2 bedrooms and 2.5 baths with antique wood floors, an open concept living/dining/kitchen area, and a awesome rooftop terrace with Charleston vistas from the Ashley River to the Cooper River.

You will be surprised and delighted with the special touches and updates within, and you will appreciate being South of Broad on the "carriage tour circuit", with the Battery, Colonial Lake, and the Horse Lot about two blocks away. Plus, you will have eateries, shopping, and everything Downtown living has to offer close by.

Every day is an adventure! From outdoors enthusiasts to foodies, there is something for everybody! Appreciate a day of tennis, golfing, boating, beaching, touring historic homes, or just cycling around. After changing, you can walk over to Costa, one of Charleston's hottest new eateries for coastal Italian fare from Liguria to Amalfi and down to Sicily. Or make a right on Broad Street to find local favorites Sorrelle, Millers All Day, and Fast and French.

Bonus: you have tandem parking for two cars and street parking for guests.

Please note, this is a monthly rental only. The City of Charleston has a draconian ordinance that only accepts properties on the National Register of Historic Places to have nightly rental permits in our neighborhood. But at this price, you can book a month for the cost of two weeks in the nightly rental zone - just stay as many nights as you need!

Tips and Tricks to get the best rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Summertime is high season in Charleston. To book the best vacation home within budget, we strongly suggest booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular attractions. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, rental management companies supply Charleston area area visitors guide magazines that include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Charleston area area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning, selecting, and booking yourrental:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your vacation week, and choose a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your group needs. Charmingly Charleston: 2BR\/2.5BA, South of Broad w\/Rooftop Terrace & Parking has 2 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property owner before you reserve the property. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to determine which bed configuration is right for your trip.
• Is your group looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking
• Some properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask your host about pet restrictions before booking.

Know before you go:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
• Record any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent lots of difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
• When it's time to leave, complete a walk-through to confirm you haven't forget anything. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a fantastic time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
