Where to start! The Cottage at 180 St. Phillip St was spectacular. We shared this adorable and well appointed cottage with dear friends from Texas. It was their first visit to Charleston. Jamie was a rock star pre-visit, during our visit, answering all our inquiries and if we had a problem, it was addressed immediately. Wonderful person to oversee The Cottage operations. Having 3 bedrooms with 3 full bathrooms is such a great perk. Beds were extremely comfortable and cozy soft sheets. The private terrace w/ bbq and evening landscape lighting is beautiful and we enjoyed many mornings and quiet evenings enjoying it. Privacy was very nice. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION. The Cottage is in a great location, for walking, pedi-cab pick up and delivery. We are already planning our next visit and will work around availability at The Cottage. A wonderful VRBO. Recommend it highly. Sandy and Chip Hughes, 9/2026

180 St. Phillips was an excellant location for all of our Charleston activities. Very clean, comfortable, quaint and very well stocked. The courtyard was a great place to decompress after a day of visiting the downtown historic sites. We will be back,

This was a great location, very comfortable stay for friends to gather! I met two old friends here for a weekend girls’ reunion trip and this was a perfect base camp. The rooms were very clean and comfortable - it was especially nice to each have our own bathroom. The location is really nice and the owner was very responsive. Would definitely recommend.
