The Space: This rental is two seperate homes next to each other.

As you walk into The Parlor home from the first floor piazza, you are greeted by an handsome entry entryway with the home’s open living room and kitchen to the right. The living room and kitchen area at the front of the home are the original building’s storefront and commercial space. The living room, adorned with classic yet comfortable furnishings pieces, has plenty of space for your group to relax and take in the home’s history and vintage antique artwork. The first floor piazza can be accessed off the living room as well. While The Parlor House has a classic vintage vibe, the kitchen is anything but that! An arched out-cove homes bespoke constructed-ins and a modern stainless steel wine cooler style refrigerator and freezer. A stainless steel oven and stove are also available for nights in with a home cooked meal. Sit at the sizable kitchen bar with seating for five, share a meal or an evening drink…or better yet both!
The first floor bedroom is located in the back of the home for peaceful nights away from the street and features a sizable king bed, en-suite bathroom with a handsomely tiled shower/tub combo, as well as a enormous closet for suitcases storage. The huge walk-in closet also homes a modest kitchenette with a mini refrigerator.

On the second floor of the home you’ll find two additional bedrooms, one in the front of the home, one in the back. Both of these bedrooms include a cozy king bed, ample closet space, and a private en-suite bathroom featuring a crafted tiled/glass shower, and single vanity sink. Need to freshen up those vacation outfits after a long day of exploring? The washer/dryer closet is located in the hall upstairs as well. The second floor piazza is accessed from the hall and the front bedroom, and makes an superb spot to take in Charleston’s extraordinary weather over a cup of coffee or the late afternoon beverage; the home is called The Parlor House after-all!

For the history buffs, in addition to the antique artwork and vintage decor, each of the three bedrooms feature unique vintage wallpaper designs by William Morris “Morris & Co.” All of the wallpapers were designed in the late 1800’s which is the same time the "Parlour House" was originally constructed. No historical detail has been overlooked! All bedrooms also include flat screen tvs for all your streaming needs, sumptuous linens and towels for each stay, and extravagant bath amenities for your convenience. There’s no need to anxiety about parking either, The Parlor House includes one off street parking space so you’ll always have a space for your rental or family car.

Brighton House has been delightfully modernized and ‘revived” from their Victorian era glory days. Following the path down the driveway to Brighton House you are greeted by the bungalow’s huge welcoming piazzas, an architectural staple here in Charleston, where you can sit and catch the breeze, chat with friends and family, and make your way in.

On the ground floor of the home you will find two of the three bedrooms. The front bedroom homes a huge king bed, bespoke design elements such as dual closets, and a bright en-suite bathroom with a single vanity and neutral toned tile shower/tub combo. Exterior access to the ground floor piazza is given through this bedroom as well.

The back bedroom is the master bedroom of the bungalow and features unique and historical design elements coupled with charming modern fixtures and amenities. The master includes a huge king bed, kitchenette area, and a enormous en-suite bathroom where guests can relax and reset after a long day of sightseeing. The en-suite bath features a double vanity, a sizable clawfoot tub, and a separate shower and water closet with a pocket door for added privacy. For guests interested in the historical and artistic elements of the home, the master bed’s headboard features a unique and artistic fabric design created and crafted as a celebration piece of African-American history and culture in the style of French Toile. The design, named ‘Harlem Toile’, “lampoons some of the stereotypes deeply woven into the African American experience.” It was designed by Sheila Bridges, an African-American artist and designer from the Harlem neighborhood of NYC, and is included in the permanent collection of Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum.

The home’s living spaces are primarily found on the second floor to take advantage of the large second floor piazza. As you can see, it is the best place for the group to gather to talk about the plans for the day, share a meal at the large table, and appreciate the handsome Charleston weather! With ample space and seating for everybody, you will find yourselves living the outdoor lifestyle day and nighttime.

Inside you’ll find the cozy yet cavernous living area featuring comfortable seating, a flat screen TV and a dining table for six. Open to the living area is the kitchen which features all the modern stainless steel appliances and amenities you could need for a nighttime in cooking a magnificent meal for the family.

The third and final bedroom is located off of the kitchen and features a full size bed, closet space, and an en-suite bathroom which can be accessed from another door off the kitchen as well. This bathroom homes a single vanity and large attractively tiled glass walk-in shower

All bedrooms also include flat screen TVs for all your streaming needs, sumptuous linens and towels for each stay, and opulent bath amenities for your convenience. There’s no need to worry about parking either, Brighton House includes one off street parking space so you’ll always have a space for one rental or family car. e!

Strategies to get the best vacation property experience:

Finding the best rental home value:

• To get the best value, try changing your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer great weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Many rental management companies supply Charleston area area travel guides which will include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Charleston area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Choosing and booking the bestrental home:

• First, have your group commit to vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Perfect for Groups has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible online. Otherwise, reach out to the property manager before you book the rental. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or costs may be applied to your contract.

Tips for your stay:

• Add the owner's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Document any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if damages are assessed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent many difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a great stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
