She stands alone!

Our striking bungalow accepts you to have your cake and eat it too with her serene privacy and splendid enclosed courtyard (furchildren welcome), while still being a stone's throw from all the fun and play downtown Charleston has to offer.

Featuring an open-concept living and dining area, this abode feels both cavernous and comfortable all at once. The chef’s kitchen comes complete with new stainless steel appliances and is completely supplied should you choose to dine in or entertain at the darling bar.

Each of her three bedrooms comes with a queen bed along with a cozy West Elm sleeper couch should you need to rest a couple more heads.

The three bathrooms are conveniently located either inside or near the bedrooms and each comes equipped with premium linens.

As our guest, you’ll be given convenient, off-street parking and a delightfully unique space to call your own during your Charleston hideaway that is mere steps away from all that historic downtown has to offer.

Tricks and tips to get the perfect vacation home experience:

When to book a Charleston area rental home & When to go:

• To get the best rental home for your budget, we highly recommend reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Charleston area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property managers often offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of 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 fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitor guides contain coupons for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Planning, selecting, and booking the perfectrental:

• Begin by selecting the best vacation week and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. The Cottage at St. Philip Square has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available online. If you don't see them listed, call the host before booking the rental. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what configuration is right for your vacation family.
• If there's a certain Charleston area beach you are enamored with, look for homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional pet fees or charges might be applied to your invoice.

More considerations for your visit:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• During arrival, note any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few concerns.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be a great source for finding the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected everything. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and look for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent feedback to stimulate more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
