There are so many wonderful things to say about the property and owners that I am not sure I can do it justice. The Villa was clean, comfortable and the view is breath taking. Waking up each morning to look out the large windows to see the sheer beauty of the marsh and the sun is unbelievable. Our kids took more pictures than we did!
The property is located a short 15 minute drive from Charleston Market and the French Quarter. Local dining is amazing and worth the wait.
Susan was extremely helpful all through the process and made our family feel welcome throughout our stay. Thank you Susan for all your help and sharing your wonderful property with our family. It is a stay we will never forget and hope to return!

We loved the porch with the hanging bed and swinging egg seat. I would sit out there in the mornings with my coffee and watch the birds in the bird sanctuary and the yard. And we saw some cool ones! Including the blue heron, white egret, white ibis, and eastern bluebird. It was incredibly quiet and peaceful, which is just what my partner and I needed to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life/work. Plus it was convenient to downtown Charleston and the King Street area (note to other users - do some research in advance on where the public parking lots are located).
The unit was well-supplied with toiletries, towels, kitchen utensils, etc.
My only suggestions would be to lower the TV on the wall (you need to crane your neck a bit to watch it on the wall), replace the mattress in the bedroom on the right (it dips in the middle), and replace the pillows in both bedrooms.
Other than that, it was a wonderful stay and I highly recommend this property.

The place is such a little sanctuary away from city life, even if Charleston is only a 10 minute drive. Alexa was able to put down that country music while I wine down on her swing sofa. Definitely recommend.

This is a fabulous property - incredible view looking towards Charleston and property is elevated on the 2nd floor so you can take it all in. Large lawn. Pool. Very updated and clean. Great porch with a dining area and grill. Would definitely stay again.

The villa was absolutely perfect for our family!! My wife and I traveled to Charleston with our 2 young kids and we were blown away by how perfect this rental was. 15 min to folly beach and 15 to downtown Charleston. The villa was very clean and very well stocked. From the pool, deck with swings, to the views we loved every second. Susan was a perfect host.

We had a great stay at this location. Everything was as described. We had plenty of room for our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 kids) and the kitchen was fully stocked. You are staying in a small house behind the owner's house, but do have full access to the beautiful backyard and pool. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Loved waking up in the morning and drinking a cup of coffee on the back porch while watching the birds fly through the marsh. Would definitely stay here again!

Truly the perfect little gem! The villa was close to everything, just a short drive to town and the beach. Owners were kind and friendly and the house had everything we needed. Comfy beds and pillows and every amenity you can think of - the villa has it! The porch is a dream, wake up with the marsh sunrise on the swing and you may even get a kitty to keep you company. Don’t wait, book it!

The Villa was a peaceful and beautiful getaway. The owners communicated everyday and ensured that we had everything we could possibly need. This is the best experience I have ever had with a VRBO rental. I look forward to staying here again. There were so many special “touches” to make our stay memorable. Fresh flowers brightened the already lovely decor! Thanks again to the owners for making our weekend wonderful!!

Extended family all met in Charleston for our grandsons 1st birthday. The property could not have been better, great location midway between Folly Beach and downtown Charleston. Beautiful 2 bedroom apartment on stilts, quiet, overlooking the marshlands, tons of birds. Well appointed unit, comfortable rooms, great front porch. Convenient to everything

Perfect location
We stayed 7 nights during Spring break and booked this on a whim. This property exceeded our expectations. The location was central and had easy drivable access to downtown, Mount Pleasant, Folly Beach, and West Ashley. The pool and porch were amazing with the spectacular views. This is a hidden gem. Be sure to try Baguette Magic which is a short walk away. The host were absolutely wonderful and very accommodating. Everything was clean and beautiful. Great stay and we will be back.
