Perfect Location & Property

This was one of the best & well managed places I have stayed at - the hosts were incredibly communicative & helpful throughout the entire process. The home was beautiful & looked exactly like the photos, we loved sitting out on the patio in the mornings. Perfect location to King street and we were able to walk pretty much everywhere! Couldn’t recommend this property, or the hosts, more!!

Perfect for Golf trip of 8

This was our second time in the house, and once again it was terrific. The location is ideal, and the accommodations are perfectly suited for 8 adults. We were there on a guys' golf trip and give it very high marks. The front porch is a gem to kill time and tell stories over a beer.

Great property and location!!

This house is beautiful and so charming! It’s an easy walk to anything you’d need and the neighborhood felt very safe. The property manager was prompt and responsive. We had an issue with the oven and they were able to fix it right away. We will definitely keep this property in mind if we are back with a big group in the future!

Holidays in Charleston

Casa Zoe 1 was perfect for our group… great gathering spaces and also perfect sleeping arrangements… beds were comfortable and cozy. Each of us had a space to relax/sleep. No need to share pristine bathrooms - luxury. Our host/contact responded quickly and offered useful info. Our house was a winner!! Thank you

Southern charm. Good for a larger group

Modern kitchen and bathrooms. Comfortable beds. Convenient location with dining within short walking distance. A bit further to walk into town but we did it several times.Historic building, I believe in National Register. As such, you want the mindset for staying in an older property. Lots of off-street parking. We would stay there again. Loved the expansive front porch!

Sparrow House - Perfect in Everyway!

There were six women in the group visiting Charleston and Sparrow House was the "icing on the cake" during our time in the Holy City. The house is spacious and elegant. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms well stocked. We enjoyed sitting in the bright and open living room as we planned our day's events and at night for "happy hour" before heading out for the evening. Meg responded to my questions promptly and was very helpful. This truly is a wonderful place to stay.

50th Girls Birthday

Sparrow Hall was so lovely. We loved every square inch of the home and hated to leave. Eight women stayed comfortably. We drank coffee in the parlor each morning, we played games and drank wine around the dining table each night, and sat and rocked on the porch to decide what we see life looking like now that we’ve all turned 50! We imagined who all have slept here in the last 225 years, walked on those floors, touched the banisters and doorknobs. It was decorated beautifully. I’d love to come back and bring my entire family. Temperature was nice for the people on the third floor. Only thing to note for improvement is the hot water in the attic bathroom only gets hot if the sink hot water is running simultaneously. It took us a bit to figure that out.

Wedding Week

We stayed at Sparrow House for daughter’s wedding June 1. It’s perfectly located for walking to King or Southbound restaurant across the street! We had 3 vehicles as it turned out and used two parking spots directly in front of the house. The other parked on the street where there is always plenty of space. We loved having a quick soup or sandwich at Ladles and ate there several times during our hectic week. Lovely big porch for enjoying the evening . Took lots of wedding photos from first look to unburying the bourbon there!!! Everything you need was provided. Just know there are no closets and be prepared . Old houses didn’t have them! We had all the kitchen amenities and WiFi as well as cable. We figured out the last day that Regular programming is on YouTube for this home !!!!! We were very busy so watched little tv but the news. Beds were great ! Baths as well. Top floor was used sparingly by friends and family who came in town for one day before moving to the host hotel. Would highly recommend this home ! It was a magical week at The Sparrow House!

Best Bachelorette

We were in town for a bachelorette weekend. There were 12 of us and this property was perfect! The owners were so accommodating to our needs, and excellent to communicate with. The listing was very accurate so our expectations were certainly met. This property is just a few blocks from King Street so everything we did was walkable or a $10 Uber drive. Also, the air conditioning worked GREAT which we appreciated as the weather was hot and humid!

Great girls weekend away?

We had a group of moms getting away for a fun weekend in Charleston! We loved the charm of the house and distance to everything. Baquette Magic was our favorite coffee and breakfast spot close by plus plenty of bars and restaurants! Very quiet and safe seeming neighborhood as well. The house was comfortable especially the second floor with 4 queen beds each with en suite bath. The bunk room does not have a bathroom and you have to go through the small single bed room to the closest rest room which wasn’t great at night time or for getting ready. Kitchen is very small so not a gathering place or great cooking kitchen but it worked for us as we had no plans to cook! We also didn’t have WiFi for the weekend but they were very responsive to getting it fixed. The porch is delightful for morning coffee and evening wine. House has two large rooms to gather, a dining room and cozy living room. We spent a lot of time in those when back at the house. Built in 1796, tons of character and charm. Would definitely recommend!
