Unique Zen Tiny House 2 mi to Beach ~ Free Bikes! Minutes to Historic Charleston

If you've ever seen Tiny House Nation and thought you would like to experience living in a unique tiny house, then here is your chance. The Zen tiny house isn't on wheels but is a modern flat tucked underneath a huge magnolia tree in my backyard inside a quiet, historic neighborhood with huge live oaks. The beaches are only 2.25 miles away and downtown Charleston about a 10-15 minute car ride. Use the complimentary cruiser bikes and ride to the beach or ride downtown and catch the spectacular view over the Ravenel Bridge.

Goods as advertised. In the middle of all sorts of dining and shopping. A quick trip over the bridge and you're in downtown Charleston. The host was friendly and gave us lots of recommendations for the beach and 4th of july. Would definitely stay again next time we are in town.

We loved our stay at the tiny house! It's clean, spacious, private and so cute! My husband and I were in town for my brother's wedding and opted to rent the tiny house instead of staying in a hotel. We loved it and will be back next time we visit!

We never fell from the balcony and managed to negotiate the ladder even at our chronologically challenged ages. What a sweet little Zen nest. Christina was wonderfully communicative and the setup of the house was thoughtfully arranged. Amenities were ample and the karma was absolutely delightful.

Cozy cottage!

Thank you so much for a comfortable and cozy night! The bananas and granola bars were such a nice surprise! It saved us from having to go out for breakfast before heading to the Yorktown for our Cub Scout trip. A great time saver! Thank you! Amanda & Sam

Tiny home without hot tub

I was looking for a place for my mom and I to stay with a hot tub near the beach. The listing included a hot tub, but we was very disappointed when we got there when there was not one. the owner apologized and took off the hot tub off the listing. The couch is very uncomfortable.. I would not recommend for older people. I would not rely on the bicycles. They do need repairs and the chains were rusty.

Reminded me of a cute little Barbie House

Hey, don't knock the cuteness before you try it. This tiny house rocks!. It has clean lines, IKEA-style, and the creature comforts that are needed. The hostess is delightful and very helpful. It is close to all things Charleston without sacrificing your shekels to stay downtown. We enjoyed several great restaurants nearby too. Did I fail to mention that it is walking distance to Starbucks? Anyway, don't be afraid to climb a ladder. This tiny gem will warm your heart.

Location, privacy, function: look no further

My fiancé and I stayed two nights in the tiny house and didn't want to leave. It was absolutely adorable, clean, and the location was perfect for visiting Sullivan's Island (our fave), Boone Hall, Shem Creek, and just over the bridge to downtown. The houses in the neighborhood are stunning. The area is super quiet. Getting Uber/Lyft rides was a cinch. My fiancé is 6'6" and he fit in all the rooms negotiated the loft just fine. Oh, and walking distance to Starbucks which appears to be the only coffee joint open on Sundays in the area. We would 100% stay here again and have already recommended it to our friends.

My tiny house dreams came true!

As an avid lover of all tiny house shows, when I saw there was an opportunity to stay in a tiny house for a weekend trip for my husband and I, i jumped on it quickly. Located in a great area, close to many things! We drove into Sullivan's island and hit the beaches there which were wonderful. The house itself is in great condition and is the cutest thing ever . I wish I had it in my back yard! It was spacious enough for my husband and I! He was apprehensive at first but enjoyed it , especially the loft. The bed was very comfortable and sheets were SO soft. Plenty of bathroom space and even toiletries provided! The shower was our only negative experience- the water pressure was terrible. Hard to wash my head of hair and even to get the sunscreen off. The kitchen was adorable and cooking was easy! Great fridge and freezer space as well. Seriously everyone, you need to experience this!!!! Thank you so much Christina for a wonderful stay!

Best VRBO Stay

Not only was the property cute, but it was the cleanest one I have ever stayed in by far. It was easy to get to and from Charleston and the beach. We LOVED the beach! Her communication was great. This was above and beyond to me. There was a binder with the owner’s favorite places for entertainment, drinks, eats, and sightseeing, etc., which I thought was so cool. HER favorite places, not just books with places to visit for us to figure it out on our own. I did feel bad coming in late because the owner has dogs and they would bark when they saw us. But overall, when we come back to visit I will be checking availability of this property first.
