The screened in porch overlooked a pond with a fountain .
It had nice comfortable chairs and was peaceful and relaxing.
Close to airport, shopping and restaurants.

Quiet and close to the interstate for easy travel around town. The condo is beautifully decorated and relaxing while sitting on the patio listening to the fountain below. Great spot to spend the weekend!

Host was very good at communicating all directions and what is expected. This being my first time at using this type of service he was very detailed! Thanks again! I’ll stay again!
Quiet property in a condo neighborhood in North Charleston. We appreciated that it was affordable for a four-night stay to see things in and around the Charleston area. Grocery store was close by. Other than a too-soft-for-me mattress, we were very pleased. Communication with owner/host was very good.

Weekend getaway
Beds were comfortable and screened in porch was very nice place to relax. This condo definitely needs an overhaul. Sliding door didn't lock and dishwasher didn't work. Communication with host was excellent.

The unit had everything we needed. There was a musty smell in the unit. Feel like walls and ceilings could use a deep clean. Overall. Comfy beds and great communication with host

Clean, safe, and in wooded community...very nice. Condo nicely decorated and mattresses are A . The condo is old and shows on the walls which need a good skim coat and most interior doors need to be replaced. Otherwise, very nice. We are picky and would stay here again. The location and comfort for the price is great.
We loved the screened in balcony! Perfect for sipping morning coffee while watching wildlife in the lagoon. Kitchen had everything we needed and more for a weekend stay. Large capacity washer and dryer. Shower faucet was a little confusing but we figured it out. Modern living room space. Couple minor issues like touchless trashcan needed batteries and a panel from blinds in the balcony door kept wanting to fall off. Otherwise a very nice property and we enjoyed our stay!
Shawn’s apartment is spotlessly clean, and beautifully decorated. It has everything you need on the kitchen and a washer and dryer if you have an extended stay. The bed in the master bedroom was really comfortable and both bedrooms were spacious. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend.
Super cute space with everything you need. Laundry, full kitchen etc. Very clean and comfortable. Close to the convention center and airport. Thank you for a great stay!
Good value! Good communication with host! Condo a bit dated, but found clean and no problems during our two night stay.

First day there, a police officer knocked on the door and said I was staying at an illegal VRBO and now that I am aware, I could be fined. Security gate personnel also were very sketchy and skeptical each time we drove through the gate, so we felt unsafe the whole time. Owner did not confirm he had the correct paperwork.
We spent 8 nights at this property. It was very clean and well, appointed. Everything we needed was there. Including an air-fryer. Beds are comfortable and the screen balcony was a real treat. I watched all the wildlife around the pond. Nicely, but simply decorated. Should be called the Orchid Retreat for the orchid theme throughout.
I found this property and saw the pictures and price and decided to book. Older place but well keeped and very clean. I have no complaints. Will book again.
This property is very nice. Ckean comfortable and close to grocery stores and airport. About a 20 minute drive to downtown Charleston. The property owner is very responsive and helpful.
Very nice two bedroom upper unit in a gated community. About 25 minutes to downtown Charlestown. TV and Internet worked well. Has a nice screened in balcony with two chairs and a side table.

Disliked: Cleanliness
This was not my clean at all. It definitely needed a deep cleaning. A lot of dust and dirt on walls, food in the chair cushions, dirty fans and food splatters on the kitchen cabinets. It served its purpose for us. The owner was easy to work with and the property was older but nice area. We did enjoy watching the alligators in the water. The screened in porch was nice in the mornings and evenings. Overall, it could use some tlc -
