About this property
Private Detached Guest House Close to Historic Charleston
Private detached Guest house (500 ft²) with NO connecting neighbors
- Safe and secure off-street parking right next to your door
- A perfect jumping off point for those who want to experience Folly Beach and Downtown Charleston!
- Located in the established walkable Bayfront community with waterfront Dock Street Park just a block away. Perfect if you want to get a "locals" feel of the area.
(Located on James Island)
The Space
You are only:
- 3.5 miles and (only 1 stop light) to Historic Downtown Charleston - basically a straight shot over the scenic James Island bridge to downtown.
- 6 miles to Folly Beach
- 14 miles to the Charleston Airport
- There are several restaurants and bars including a city park within walking distance.
Folly Beach and Downtown are not within walking distance. Rentals in those areas have significantly higher prices and usually lack adequate parking and conveniance if you want to see greater Charleston.
Transportation:
A car is recommended if you want to see all of the sites that Charleston has to offer. Uber and Lyft are easily available due to the close proximity to downtown Charleston
JI Town Permit - # HO-2017-21
Guest access
Full use of the detached apartment, its amenities and the large open back yard on (.6 acres) giving you complete privacy without hearing other guests.
I live in the main house at the front of the property (over 100 ft away). So feel free to come and go as you please without disturbing anyone!
Other things to note:
PETS
- An additional one time $75 is required. Please be sure to add your pet to the guest list. The property is not fully gated, however it is on a very large lot.
PARKING
- Your own secure paved off-street parking (approximately 1250 ft²) just a few feet from your door. The parking area can accommodate multiple cars, trailers and campers - I've had some guests bring their boats. You will not get this Downtown!
BEDS

- Cot available when booking with 3 or more.
- The couch can be extended to sleep one more.
