Pretty, nicely appointed upstairs apartment. Great little spots to eat nearby. As other reviewers have mentioned, parking is very tight and the living room could use another comfortable spot to sit.

Comfortable apartment in historic Charleston

The Swan House is exactly as described. Upstairs unit in a historic Charleston home near the University of Charleston. We either walked or took the free shuttle around town. Very convenient. The apartment has been tastefully updated and is very well stocked with everything one needs. The kitchen is the best equipped I’ve ever experienced in a vacation rental. I highly recommend Swan House and would stay there when I have the opportunity to visit Charleston again.

A lovely, well-equipped and thoughtfully designed home

We had a great time in the Swan House. The interior design is beautiful, and all the little things that really matter are done well. Nice linens, good mattresses, great kitchen and bathrooms, plus things not all VRBO owners provide, including toiletries, charging stations next to each bed, extra fans and the like.The neighborhood is transitional, which is common in the Charleston area given high real estate costs closer to the main attractions of the historic district. That said, we felt completely safe walking around the neighborhood, found several local gems, including a great wine bar/book shop called Philosophers & Fools, plus a store called Provisions something - forgot the name - that has lovely little treats to stock the kitchen.

Perfect downtown apt

This apt looked even better than the pictures! Beautiful design touches throughout gave a very up scale feel. The kitchen was better equipped than most non-rental kitchens and we were sad to not use it more! The private off street parking was a definite plus given its great walkability to downtown Charleston. Would absolutely recommend!

Great stay at The Swan House

Location was great as we could walk to visitor center and downtown from Swan House. We didn’t want to rent a car. Neighborhood grocery stores were handy for few essentials we needed. Rental was clean and had everything we needed. Property Manager helpful and timely with info.

Great location

The Swan house was a GREAT location for us. We were able to walk to King Street and enjoy the attractions on King Street. The apartment was neat and clean and had many amenities as described. (Salt and Pepper shakers would have been nice to be included in the kitchen......) It fit our needs adequately. My only complaint was that there were no extra towels, so we had to do laundry for our week stay. There was a nice washer and dryer, so this was NOT difficult. I also was not aware that we were on the upper level of this home. Perhaps I missed this in the VRBO description, but there are significant stairs to be climbed to enter your apartment. We are middle aged folks, so carrying our luggage up the stairs was not the easiest. Overall, a very nice stay and we were pleased with our purchase.
