We visited for the weekend to visit our son who recently moved to Charleston. He lived relatively close but decided to stay with us in the house. The house was immaculately cleaned. Smelled so good and fresh. Nice touches everywhere. Very roomy and the beds were so comfortable. We took our dog. Nice grassy area for her walk around in. We did have a problem with the alarm code the first morning but i texted the owners and they were very responsive. Got a new code and we were all good. They are very prompt and willing to help with anything. Highly recommend this location.
