Without a doubt, the cleanest VRBO we’ve ever stayed at. We highly recommend staying here. Very comfortable and the host was very east to get in touch with. We would definitely stay again!
We had a lovely stay, hope to come back. Quiet neighborhood & a walking park close by. Easy access to interstate & downtown. Great communication with owner.
We had a great stay in the Park Circle area! The host was very helpful with recommendations and very quick to answer all questions! We will be back on our next visit with family and friends in the Cjarleron area!
The Olive Branch Cottage was so cute and the perfect size for my family of 3 and my dog. Having a fenced in backyard was great. Ginger was a great host and very responsive. We left my son necklaces and she was kind enough to mail them back to us. Great place to stay!
We had the perfect Thanksgiving getaway at thus beautiful vottage close to everything in Charleston. It couldn't have been more perfect for us and our two furbabies. Very clean and comfortable.
This property is so cute and perfect for a small group. The host Ginger was so responsive and accommodating. The area was perfect for a Charleston trip very close to shopping, eating, and drinks. Also convenient for a beach trip!
The property was very nice. A space to sit and relax outside. The house was great. Everything you needed was there. It is not far away from anything and easy to get to. I would definitely book again.
We really enjoy the Park Circle area. It’s close to all that we come to Charleston for.
This house was perfect. Exactly as described. Comfortable sleeping. Nice kitchen. We really enjoyed our stay.
Super cute and comfortable!! I stayed with my mother for a long weekend to surprise my sister for her birthday and the accommodations were perfect. We were very comfortable and the place was spotless. The host has definitely thought of all those litte touches to keep you comfortable and make you feel at home. SUPER close to the airport! We do not plan on staying anywhere else in the future when we visit Charleston.
Our stay could not have been better. The description of the home was spot on. Actually, we have never seen a cleaner property. It was walking distance to everything we wanted plus more. Our host gave us information on other events and was ever so helpful before and during our stay. Great location!
We loved staying at this house for the week! I had great communication with Ginger before and during the stay. She was very sweet, even offering us a sound machine for 4th of July. Everything you need is in the house. The neighborhood was quiet and we felt safe there. Also it was the perfect location if you planned on going north to visit plantations/gardens or south to Charleston or the beach!
