The Space: Walk everywhere from this striking historic midtown home that is in Cannonborough, one of downtown’s hottest neighborhoods. Eateries, coffee stores, yoga studios, shopping and 3 college campuses all within walking distance. And just a short drive to the pristine beaches of Sullivan’s Island and Isle of Palms!

This first-floor apartment is roughly 1400 square feet and is sizable enough for 4 people to comfortably savor but rather comfortable if there’s only 2 of you!

The tree-lined street is peaceful (which means you’ll have a great nighttime’s sleep), but 4 blocks from King Street, where you’ll find the buzz of cafes, eateries, galleries, shopping and vibrant nighttime-life.

Unlike many downtown properties, this property comes with 2 off-street parking spaces. You’ll never have to anxiety about finding or paying for a place to park.

The kitchen is completely equipped for when your wallet needs a break from sampling all of Charleston’s world-class eateries and bars. If you don’t want to brew up the Charleston roasted coffee that is supplied for you, just meander across the street to 132 Spring Cafe (or other coffee stores) to appreciate local coffees and baked goods.

The huge dining area is open to the living room and kitchen, ideal for family game nights or lingering after your home-cooked meals. We hope you enjoy the original artwork throughout the home, it is decorated with the owner's work and striking antique furnishings.

The two bedrooms are located towards the back for the unit with one king bed and one queen bed. The king room features an ensuite bathroom that also opens to the kitchen and also features a washer/dryer. There is also a full bath in the hall for the queen bedroom to use as well.

Tricks and tips to get the perfect Charleston vacation home experience:

Sticking to your spending budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Charleston area area. Reserving a rental home in the Fall or Spring is a good way to save on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Charleston area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• The sooner you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation property six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites often offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Charleston area area visitors guides which will include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Filter your rental search:

• Choose vacation dates and budget.
• Cozy Elliotborough Retreat has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible online. Otherwise, call the property management company before reserving the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what is best for your vacation group.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or might be applied to your contract.

Tips for your stay:

• Add the property manager's phone number to your phone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To make certain damages aren't attributed to your stay, record any problem areas during check in. Call the rental manager right away to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected everything. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a fantastic time? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
