Great location-walk to Shems Creek & lots of restaurants
You cannot beat this location-you’re in downtown Charleston in 12 minutes! Easy walk to Shems Creek restaurants & so much more, but it’s a nice quiet street with a lovely patio. Great fenced in yard for our dog-definitely recommend to stay here-owner is great and very accommodating -we’ll be back next year!
