It really is a beautiful townhome that was perfect for our trip. Having individual AC units in each bedroom really allowed us to control the temperature to our preference. Plenty of parking space for us. Unfortunately we couldn't enjoy the back patio space due to the weather, but it would have been a great space to relax and hang out. The master bathroom was perfect (love the two shower heads). The TV in the guest bedroom wouldn't work without signing in/up for a Walmart account, but that wasn't a big issue at all, as there were other TVs. You can tell a lot of work has been put into this place.

Lowcountry Retreat is a gorgeous, tastefully decorated and well-appointed townhouse that we ( almost) didn’t want to leave to tour the Charleston area. Very well situated, it’s just a short drive to Sullivan’s Island, the heart of Charleston, etc. Great kitchen and dining area! Excellent livingroom and comfortable bedrooms. Plus, the great outdoor fireplace and cushy seating on the patio. Highly recommend this spot if you’re visiting the area.

Fantastic place. Spacious with lots of seating areas and the outdoor fireplace was amazing! Beds comfortable, nice neighborhood and close to everything Would definitely choose to stay here again and recommend to others All the special touches to really help you enjoy the area beaches and information on restaurants etc Only note is there is ZERO pantry basics (salt, pepper, cooking spray, etc) located in the unit So if you plan to fix a meal make sure you get what you need at the store. However on a positive note …if you need them the store is just moments away!

Fabulous weekend with family.

This home was perfect for our quick weekend in Mt. Pleasant/Charleston before my college students head back to school. We spent one day in downtown Charleston and two days on the beach (1 each at IOP and Sullivan’s). Note: bedrooms are 1 King and 2 Queen rooms. The house is well stocked for cooking in but is also close to everything. Groceries nearby. The outdoor patio area is nice. Owners were good communicators.
