Place is beautifully decorated and quaint. Nice small rectangular pool behind next door neighbors that is shared between 3-4 other tenants. It was in a nice location that we could walk to some restaurants and shops.My only concern was that it was very compact. I guess most places in this area are the same being built in 1800s when people were much smaller.I wish we were advised to bring smaller vehicle as the alley is a bit tight for large suv . Also I advise you take 2 smaller bags vs 1large suitcase as the bedroom is upstairs.I would highly recommend going to Ft SumterVietnam Experience TSS Yorktown Aircraft Carrier Aquarium Afro American museum Harbor CruiseRestaurants Millers All Day for Breakfast Charleston Crab HouseHank’s Seafood

Cozy and beautiful

My husband and I stayed here for four nights. What a great getaway to Charleston! This house was perfect for the two of us. It was very quiet at night, and we loved the courtyard. We took a dip in the pool multiple times. The location of this property is close to lots of shopping and restaurants. The property had everything we could need, and it felt as if some thought was put into what went into the property (amenities and toiletries). We loved our stay here!

CHS PERFECTION!

We have been visiting Charleston since 2017 & have stayed at the best hotels- this year we tried the pool house to mixed it up and are THRILLED WE DID! The pool house is a private dwelling down an enchanted alleyway. It is secluded and quiet as well as extremely clean and well decorated - also stocked with all you need. It is in an ideal location to walk to all CHS has to offer! The icing on the cake is the beautiful pool right out your front door. My husband and I spent the hot midday hours floating and lounging in the cool shade of the pristine water.We had the best time here and will certainly return! Working with the staff was a pleasure - many many thanks!
