These apartments have one king bedroom with an adjoining full bathroom, and a furnished balcony overlooking the back of Charleston’s historic Fire Station 6 and its old Firetower. These 3 units each have a glass top table with 2 chairs off the kitchen.

Centrally located in downtown Charleston, in an area full of notable eateries, locally owned stores and cafes, and lively entertainment venues, this new 4 story brick and wood addition to the Firetower complex, complete with off-street parking, is your ideal home base for exploring all Charleston has to offer.

Each apartment in this appealing new property is the ideal location to experience the local flavor in one of downtown Charleston's most buzzed-about neighborhoods. Each of the three levels above the lobby contains 7 unique units, most with a appealing furnished balcony.

All 21 units have central heat and air, dedicated WIFI, and a TV in every living room and bedroom for your comfort and convenience. From modern, ceramic-tiled bathrooms with a sliding glass door shower in each unit, to bespoke kitchens with stainless steel appliances and cooking implements, you have access to all the creature amenities of home in these well-appointed apartments. The entire property is secured by entry-door touchpads with assigned pin codes that change with each visitor. Last but not least, from level 4 up a side stairway you will find the rare luxury of a roomy, private rooftop deck, with a handsome view of the many steeples, historic buildings, and bridges that make up Charleston's skyline, the ideal place to take in the sunset or watch as stars fill the nighttime sky.

As you venture out to discover, just steps outside the lobby door, you’ll find “Baba’s on Cannon”, a neighborhood staple serving up the best espresso and cappuccino in town, as well as breakfast pastries, craft drinks, simple alluring tapas, and an expertly curated wine list. Inside, avoid the line and download the Baba's app to place a prepaid order to go. Next door to Baba's is the conveniently located "Queen Anne's Liquors" with everything needed to provision a pre-dinner beverage on your private balcony. Just across the street is James Beard Award-winning chef, Mike Lata’s acclaimed seafood and raw bar restaurant, “The Ordinary” (reservations on RESY are always a good idea, but two can open comfortable up to the bar and order from the full menu).

As you head down King Street toward famed Battery Park (a 30-min. walk) each charming block is steeped with historic architecture, enchanting native flora, and an eclectic mix of stores, bars, and eateries. If you walk in the other direction, there are many gorgeous, locally-owned bouquets and modest eateries cropping up down Cannon and Spring Street, with The Aquarium and Market Street just a short drive or long walk away.

The 21 units in the new Firetower building round out an existing complex of 10 short-term apartment rental units adjacent on each side that have been inviting visitors to relax and relax with us for over 5 years. Located amidst Charleston’s vibrant King Street social scene, the old Cannon Street home contains 4 apartments and the King Street complex has 6 units lined up in a row beside our cavernous rooftop patio - which is accessible at all times, and for solely the use of our guests.

This property is managed by Vacasa South Carolina LLC.

Getting the best vacation rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in the Charleston area area. Reserve your Charleston area rental home in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. 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, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Some owners offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-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 have coupons for nearby shops and restaurants.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select a group lead, select your vacation week, and choose a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Sunny & stylish downtown condo with full kitchen, AC, & rooftop deck has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Charleston area vacation rental search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking pages. If not, call the property manager before reserving the property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a particular Charleston area beach you are enamored with, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.

Considerations for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents quite a few concerns.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would at home.
• Record any damages to the property 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 can be very helpful if there is a dispute.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Re-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed everything on check-out day. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a terrific stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect 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 review.
