Lovely long weekend
We thoroughly enjoyed this lovely home nestled in a beautiful historic neighborhood. It was our home base for a long weekend celebrating our youngest child’s 30th birthday by touring Charleston. Tranquil and yet convenient.

A gem in Summerville.
We had a wedding celebration that brought us to Summerville and needed a home to accommodate my parents (in their 80’s) and my husband and I. The house was perfect! Comfortably appointed and laid out and so close to the event. My aunt and uncle that flew in from MN came over every day from their hotel and we all took walks together. It is in such a beautiful neighborhood.
We found ourselves visiting for hours on the side porch or in the TV room off of the kitchen.
Having two rooms on the first floor was important. As my dad is not great on stairs anymore.
We will definitely stay there again! Tucked away feeling, yet close to everything. So perfect!!!
Thank you Jane!!

Quiet Escape
We were in town for a wedding and needed a place to stay for the weekend. I selected this home because it had plenty of rooms and bathrooms but it had so much more! It was beautiful both inside and out! It was clean, spacious, and so relaxing! Coming back to this space after a long wedding day was exactly what we needed! This space is in a quiet neighborhood that is perfect for just enjoying each other’s company! We would definitely stay here again!
Great location and community approximately 30 mins
From Charleston SC
I stayed with 4 of my college girl friends. Beautifully furnished 3 full baths were a real extra. 2 on main floor with 2 bedrooms and 1 bath and 2 twin beds upstairs. Enjoyed Coffee on the porch each morning and card games each night in dining room,
An earlier review said the stairs were steep I totally disagree the stairs were wide and well lit. Easy to find home lots of parking. Will stay there again. Great place for adult gathering.

Historic Gem
This home is beautiful! Nestled in a beautiful little community along a tree lined street. This old house sheltered us from a storm allowing us to feel completely safe as the weather outside raged. We enjoyed several evening sitting out on the front porch just taking in the beauty of the area. It is also located very close to the downtown area that has lots of neat shops and things to do. Ms Jane was a pleasure to deal with on anything we had a question about. I highly recommend! On a side note, these were some of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in at a rental property!

Tall Beds
This home is lovely. We really enjoyed all the sitting space. The patio is wonderful to sit and listen to the birds. All the rooms are spacious and very well decorated. The only problem we had (and that is because there were two 80-year-olds and one 90-year-old) was the beds. The Master and one bedroom downstairs are VERY High. The Master had steps going up to the bed. The twin beds were regular height, but the stairs are small and steep. The host lives next door and she checked in with us to make sure we were ok and offered to bring in a blow up mattress for us. She is very considerate.
I definitely would rent again from this lady.

Wonderful updated home
We loved our stay here. We are 3 ladies looking for comfort, quiet and close to stores. This house is all that, plus it has hummingbirds. Lovely porch to sit and watch the birds, read and drink coffee. Beds are tall and comfortable. Bathrooms have plenty of towels and amenities. Kitchen is well equipped. Fridge is huge. Plenty of room for anything you want to stock up on. Furniture is very comfortable and in great shape. The thing we liked best is the 100 year old original hardwood floors. Gorgeous. The stairs up to the attic room are fairly steep. Perfect twin bed room for a couple of people who want privacy from the rest of the house. Hosts are nearby. They responded quickly to all questions. This is a completely remodeled and up to date older home. It was just delightful and charming. We will definitely put this house at the top of our list for next time.

Comfortable
Overall, the property was very nice and a great location to our family who lives in the area. There are a few things that we would have changed. The beds are extremely high so we would’ve liked further to been a step ladder or step to each other of the bedrooms also we thought about something for people who like the grill outside and it’s great weather right now. Nice grill outside would’ve been lovely but overall the property was very clean there lots of supplies in there and at this point we would book it again

Super Summerville stay
Excellent value. Host was great. Clean, well-furnished.
Suggest a more street-visible house number easily spotted from the street. I found the wrong driveway twice; thankfully the host spotted my problem and directed me to the right drive.
We enjoyed the coffee, water, and snacks.

Charming house in beautiful neighborhood
Lovely house in a wonderful neighborhood. Property was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. Host was attentive and responded to any needs and questions we had. Neighborhood is beautiful. We took several of Jane's suggestions, including the historic walking tour, walking to town and enjoying restaurants, and walking to the park to play pickleball. Quick and easy drive to downtown Charleston and the beaches. We highly recommend this property for your stay in Summerville and the Charleston area.

Historic Heaven
This cottage was perfect for our family gathering. It is located in the historic district of Summervile and close to Charleston in a beautiful neighborhood. The landscaping is awesome with birds chirping, smells of blooming flowers and rocking chairs on the big porch. The kitchen was great and the historic character added to the cozy feel of the house. It was very roomy and comfortable. We can’t wait to go back.

Lovely property
Jane was very responsive. The property is beautiful. Great location, many good restaurants close by, grocery stores and not too far from downtown Charleston. We would stay again. If I had any advice (and it wasn’t a huge deal) would be to add an additional tv so a family can divide if needed and not be on top of each other the entire stay 🙂
