Cottage in the Oaks is a restored Historical Cottage from the late 1800’s
Cottage in the Oaks is located on our property, which has 2 1/2 acres of Ancient Live Oak trees. It is nestled away from a neighborhood, with a lot of privacy. The 660 sq foot cottage was refurbished entirely in Feb 2019 and has a full kitchen with a full size stove and refrigerator and has all the amenities you need, should you decide to skip the great restaurants available, and stay in to cook. There is a peninsula that multi tasks as dining and a work station. The living room has a queen size pull out sofa bed (with a gel foam mattress) and plenty of lighting to read. The bedroom has a queen size bed and full closet (hangers included) , the one bathroom is a large room, with a walk in shower and a full size washer/ dryer. Bathroom amenities include shampoo and conditioner, soap, towels and wash cloths. Extras if you forget an item, tooth brush toothpaste and razors. There is also a full size ironing board and iron for your convenience. The screened front porch is perfect for starting your day with a cup of coffee or ending your day with a glass of wine, overlooking an expanse of yard with beautiful live oaks. We have a fox that visits every night, owls, and a pleathora of birds. We also have had a few unusual visitors, a sheep was visiting for a while until we had it relocated to a better home! We are located 4 minutes to Summerville town square, 30 minutes from downtown Charleston, 15 minutes to West Ashley, 15 minutes to Cummins, Bosch, 20-25 to Boeing (airport) and 20 minutes to the new Volvo plant The beach is about 45 minutes away and we will supply beach towels and chairs. We truly hope to make your stay pleasurable and carefree. Charleston is known for its hospitality! We are available as little or as much as you need!

If you are looking for a respite thats beautiful, clean, and quiet, this is the one. Summerville has great food and you can do your laundry if needed. Definitely the cleanest most beautiful vrbo we've stayed in.
This cottage was perfect for me!
Beautiful and quiet but close to everything.
Loved sitting on the front porch and relaxing.
If ever in the area again would definitely stay here

Charming cottage! Great spot to explore plantations and Charleston. Thank you for having us!
My family and I had a great time at the Cottage. The space was comfortable, clean, and exactly what we needed. The yard is incredibly beautiful and our toddler loved exploring.
We would absolutely stay here again!
Wonderful property !We enjoyed our stay and couldn’t be happier.They recommended fantastic restaurants in the area and treated us so kindly.This will be our forever Summerville VRBO!
The cottage was perfect for my husband and I with all the comforts of home. Marianne the host was amazing and quite insight on where to eat, hike and what beaches to go. Summerville is a year trip for us and as long as the cottage is open this is where we will stay!!
Even though we visited during hurricane Debby, the house was high and dry. Our Host kept us informed of the local weather issues and what roads were safe. We were able to have a great time and did not mind getting wet.
Lovely property. Loads of beautiful flowers and trees surrounding the house with many butterfies and birds. Plenty of space to move about outside, if you wanted to. Simply lovely.
This was the perfect place for our week visit. The property is beautiful and quiet. The house was clean and met our needs. I slept great on the mattress. Normally I don't sleep well and wake up very early. I slept in for once. Marianne and her family were very friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed our time there.
We checked out every beach in the Charleston area along with historic neighborhoods in Charleston. Found great restaurants to eat seafood, played pickleball in Summerville and enjoyed historic architecture in Summerville. The house was in a great location for us about a half hour to 40 minutes to Charleston and area beaches and 10 minutes to pickleball courts and beautiful downtown Summerville.
From the moment you drive up you’ll just want to slow down and enjoy this lovely property and owners!
We are only sorry our stay was so short and busy that we didn’t have more time to relax on this unique and beautiful property! The cottage was perfect with everything you could ask for, super comfortable, beautifully decorated, and so clean! The owners even took out some toys for my son to play with!
We would definitely stay here again and will be recommending it to family and friends as well!
This little cottage was spotless absolutely inside and out absolutely enchanting 1800’s little home but you walk inside and it is completely contemporary, clean and pristine and just exactly the way you want a brand new home these days everything was comfortable. Everything that was needed was available, the owners were very hospitable and always responded quickly. It was in a beautiful setting in Summerville just 2 miles from the wedding B&B venue we were going to attend and it was just lovely beautiful large live oak Trees, beautiful camellias, and this spring and summer the promise of an abundance of flowering shrubs, and plants that are currently dormant, but I just know it’s gonna be breathtaking , we enjoyed our stay so much and look forward to having a good reason to return again so we can come back during warmer months and stay in this sweet little college when all is in full bloom.
Having never visited Charleston truly...this was the perfect place to stay!
My husband and I had celebrated our 10th wedding Anniversary 2 years ago in Savannah. And after appreciating the architecture and the Beauty of that city, we decided to sit our normal "Birthday Celebrations Week," out from taking the camper this time and playing in the woods to seek and learn and see what Charleston was about.
Now saying all that, having never been we were seeking more a solitude get-a-way to retrieve back to after a long City day of exploring...and Marianne and David had provided exactly just that! A peaceful retreat!
The cottage had everything you could think of as far as essentials, and it was kept very clean and tastefully decorated. I loved the front porch being able to unwind and enjoy the views of The Live Oaks. And upon departure, we were able to meet both Marianne and David, and they were such a lovely couple!
If we were to ever return, we would definitely stay here again!
Thanks for the Hospitality!!
Kindly,
The Albersons
Absolutely beautiful charming cottage pictures dont do it justice! Very clean and cozy, front screened porch perfect for coffee in the morning or in evenings wonderful family trip, perfect location for near Charleston attractions and lots of antique shops
This little cabin was just perfect for my husband and myself. Very clean and updated. Great front screened in porch to sit on in the evening to relax. Close to everything. Summerville is such a cute small town with nice restaurants and parks. Will definitely rent it the next time we come in town.
We needed a place to stay for our daughter's graduation at College of Charleston and stumbled across this gem! Perfect little cottage with an old school feel but a modern appeal. Highly recommended.
