Absolutely great location for easy walks to downtown Summerville. Host is great at communication, and accommodating. Very pet friendly. The property is a carriage house built pre- electricity. Itâs spacious and well equipped, but heat/air and electric was retrofitted. Itâs difficult to adjust heat ( it was unseasonably cold) between first and second floor. Once you get hang of it itâs ok, and host provided space heaters. There are also limited outlets compared to modern house and if you need to charge multiple devices it takes a couple different rooms to do it. Off street parking feels very safe. We didnât use laundry but itâs modern. Overall very charming, lots of towels and beach stuff provided if weather is warm. Good access to roads to Charleston and beaches. Enjoyed walks into downtown for morning coffee. Summerville has a small town feel and everyone is very friendly - easy to start up conversations. We went there to see if we wanted to look at retirement home in the area.
We had a great stay and it will be the place we look to stay every time we come to see our family!! Allison and Mr George are so hospitable and the place is so cute and has everything you need!!
Omgosh I don't even know where to begin!! This has been the most amazing experience. I will never forget this place! I am already looking forward to coming back! It's absolutely beautiful here. Mr. George is just such a treasure. Miss Allison was very nice and everything was just as it was said it would be! The grounds are absolutely gorgeous. Picture's don't do it justice. Thank you for such a wonderful stay!
This property is a gem! Very close to the charming historic town of Summerville, yet you feel like you are tucked away in a secret oasis. The many walkways and paths are lovely and dotted with sculptures and wooden trellises so walking our dogs was a treat!
Adorable cottage with everything you could need! Plenty of room for the 4 of us staying 3 nights. I loved having 2 bathrooms and a washer and dryer. It allowed us to do our laundry before moving on to the next leg of our trip. The location is perfect and the communication with Allison was very prompt. We loved finding a newspaper in our mailbox each morning from Mr. George. A very special touch. THANK YOU!
The cottage is lovely and was perfect for us and our dogs. It was so close to downtown Summerville and an easy drive to Charleston. Allison was very responsive to everything at needed!
What a perfect place for us to stay with our dogs until we could move into our new home. The cottage has everything you need and is a perfect location to visit all the wonderful things Summerville has and close proximity to areas of interest. Loved the gardens and beautiful trees and especially the hospitality of Mr George.
This cottage is quaint, and the property around it is very pretty. It is a quiet setting, but yet not too far from the town. The cottage is equipped with everything You need to be comfortable. And it was very clean. The 90-year-old man who lives in the large house next to it is an extra bonus. He is friendly warm and Kind. He loves to talk about the history Of the town, and he gives a wonderful tour of the big house he lives in.
When we arrived we were greeted by two cockroaches, one dead and one alive. After walking through the cottage we found someone elseâs underwear and other dirty items in a drawer and an article of clothing wedged between the bed and the wall. We immediately left as we were concerned with the cleanliness. The only offer of remediation was to send the same cleaners who were supposed to clean it the first time. I was uncomfortable staying there with my ten month old so we ended up getting a hotel room. The host asked if I had contacted VRBO which I had not and proceeded to tell me VRBO would not allow a refund which was not true. When I contacted VRBO they said it was at her discretion. I mentioned this and never heard anything back. I was very much looking forward to staying here after reading other reviews but would not recommend after the experience we had.
The home had a lot of character. The wife noticed that under and behind the couch hadn't been cleaned in a while. The door leading to the porch sticks and the door knob is about to come off. The lamp near the main bedroom door is broken. The wife also noticed when washing dishes, there was sediment in the water supply. The home needs a thorough maintenance inspection. Everything else was perfect, and the owners were a delight.
My husband & I visited friends n the Summerville area for a week. Property is n a lovely neighborhood, very close 2 the cute downtown area. We enjoyed staying n the cottage, which was clean & comfortable. We also appreciated that the home was pet friendly. The owners were extremely accommodating, wanting 2 ensure that we had all that we needed 2 enjoy our stay.
George is a treasure. So friendly & kind. We enjoyed the tour of his wonderful Southern home & learning first-hand about the history of the house. It was nice 2 b able 2 explore the grounds w/ our dog Cooper.
We loved the cottage! The grounds are beautiful, Allison is lovely and Mr. George is a gem, news paper every morning and flowers at our door. The location can't be beat it's easy to get to everything you will want to explore. We will visit again for sure!
We came to Summerville to visit friends in the area and to experience the quaint village. Mission accomplished. The cottage is located on a beautiful property just a few blocks from parks, churches, and village restaurants. Weâll be back.
