Exactly what we were looking for: a contemporary, single family house, fully equipped for a multigenerational extended stay. Easy access to Charleston and its environs.

Nice property and building, owner non communicative

We asked the owner a few questions regarding some specific advice on what was needed prior to our trip (ie hair dryer, etc). We got no answer. The bigger concern is that one key was made available, if it was lost it during a day trip we would be in a desperate situation.The home, though is new, clean and in good shape.

Great place to stay

It was an amazing place to stay in John’s Island. Perfect location, just a short drive away from so much. Lots of space and privacy from neighbors. Beds were so comfortable and lots of space for a nice stay.

Perfect for our needs

Our son was moving out of his house in the adjacent neighborhood and we all needed a place to stay while we cleaned and packed up his house. It was just a few blocks away, the house was just what we needed: close, clean, and quiet.

This was a very well-kept house. My only complain was that the tup in the master bed room was clogged. So we had to shower with water build-up (ew).

Great week/location for our family

Our family (3 kids and a hound) really enjoyed our week here. The house was plenty big for all of us and we enjoyed the more rural setting with easy access (< 30 minutes drive) to downtown Charleston, Kiawah Island, and Folly Beach. There was plenty of space, and the neighborhood was quiet enough that it was easy to walk the dog.

This was the worst experience we have ever had and we have stayed at more than 50 VRBO units.

We asked numerous times for check in but only got a code for the garage which did not work. I called numerous times before reaching a rude person who said I should be calling his brother, who's number is not given. When I reached the brother he first told me it had been working but then told me to enter the back sliding door because they had problems with the garage. The TV all look great but none are set up and you have to have a google account to sign in. Fancy fridge but water and ice don't work, fancy light switches with no info how to use, no info on the house sent. The showers in both bath rooms don't work properly. The water cuts off completely between ice cold and scalding hot. Internet stopped working and I sent a text to owner. He complained I had bothered him at a meeting, and when he did call back I was at a dinner for my grandson and he justified all their bad communications on the fact I did not answer his call when I was at a family meal. Was told they would send check out information but it was never sent and when I sent them a private email to tell them how they could improve he wrote back a nasty email telling me to write a bad review because he didn't care if his tenants were satisfied. We have not only stayed at hundreds of units and given almost all of them good reviews we have a number of units and we would never ever treat a guest as these two immature brothers who care nothing about their guest other than getting their money.

Wonderful Thanksgiving gathering

This property is amazing! Lots of space and a great location, close to many cool restaurants, shopping and outdoor activities. We had 5 adults and 2 dogs, everything was perfect and we had plenty of room. The only thing lacking was extra cookware and enough dishes for more than 4 people, as we cooked and ate our Thanksgiving dinner there. Large beds were super comfortable but bunk bed mattresses were rough. Decor was very nice and there were lots of little touches that made it feel homey. I would definitely stay here again. Thanks, Derek!!
