Charmingly Charleston is an attractively located townhouse located across the street from Colonial Lake in downtown Charleston's Historic District. Ideal for travelers who want to really savor living in Charleston like a local! Our impressive home away from home is the ideal place to rest your head while visiting Charleston for a month or longer.

Decorated in a quirky, casual Lowcountry theme, Charmingly Charleston offers two bedrooms, one and a half baths, living room, separate dining room, entirely equipped kitchen, and laundry room. The primary bedroom is sizable with a walk-in closet and a queen-sized bed. The second bedroom is comfortable and has a day bed with trundle and a writing desk.

We are located near the Battery, the Ashley Marina, and within walking or cycling distance of the Medical University of South Carolina and College of Charleston . A nice walk or pedi-cab ride away you will also find the Historic Market, Gibbes Museum, and the astounding shopping & dining of King Street.

Appreciate Charleston's incredible eateries, antique stores, historic and ghost walking tours, horse drawn carriages, tours of historic homes, harbor cruises, and the South Carolina Aquarium all close by!

It is also an painless commute to Boeing or a jaunt across the peninsula to Charleston Law School. Additionally you are just a short drive from five beaches, seven marinas, and more golf courses that I can recall.

Don't wait, just grab your toothbrush and come on!

Interested in staying longer? Ask me about our lease prices for three or more months that include housekeeping, Internet, and utilities.

Please note, that per Charleston's draconian ordinances, we are a monthly rental and do not rent by the nighttime.

Cancellation Policy
Please note, we are not the Hilton, and when you make a reservation, we hold the space for you and turn away other guests so you will have this special place. People searching for monthly units usually book 6-12 months in advance, as such we are not able to offer “flexible” cancellations.
Before you book, we ask you to please make sure of your dates. In the past, when we had a 60-day cancellation policy, we had two different guests hold our home off the market for a year, during which we turned down many other guests, only to have them cancel exactly 60-days before arrival. Since monthly renters have usually found their lodging at least 90 days out, we ended up with vacant months in both cases. This is when we changed our policy to “no refund”, as it was the only other option available on the platform. However, we know things happen and always want to work with our guests.
Our policy is pretty simple:
- Full refund if cancelled within 48 hours of booking and at least 28 days before check-in.
- Refund, less $1500, for cancellations made up to 3 months before check-in.
- After that, reservation is non-returnable. However, we will aggressively try to fill the dates and we will refund you whatever amount we are able to collect through rebooking.

If you have any questions, please contact me. We adore hosting and sharing our city with others, and we hope to see you soon!

Tricks and tips to get the perfect Charleston area rental home experience:

Finding your perfect rental:

• The earlier you can book, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are reserved very early. Reserving your rental home up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local Charleston area visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines contain coupons for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Narrow your Search:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your trip dates, and select a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Charmingly Charleston in Historic District on Colonial Lake, Near the Battery has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Charleston area rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible online. If you don't see them listed, call the property management company before you reserve the property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You'll need to determine what configuration is suitable for your group.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• If there's a certain Charleston area destination you crave, look for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.

Know before you go:

• Get the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your . Store the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of difficulties.
• Lock your rental home while you're out and about. Protect your property!
• During arrival, record any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Double-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at departure. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a excellent time? Many rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect 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 comments.
