These are suites with 2 king bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a shared living area. The private, furnished balcony in the living room of these 3 apartments overlooks the back of Charleston’s historic Fire Station 6 and its old Firetower.

Centrally located in downtown Charleston, in an area full of notable eateries, locally owned stores and cafes, and lively entertainment venues, this new 4 story brick and wood addition to the Firetower complex, complete with off-street parking, is your ideal home base for exploring all Charleston has to offer.

Each apartment in this appealing new property is the ideal location to experience the local flavor in one of downtown Charleston's most buzzed-about neighborhoods. Each of the three levels above the lobby contains 7 unique units, most with a beautiful furnished balcony.

All 21 units have central heat and air, dedicated WIFI, and a TV in every living room and bedroom for your comfort and convenience. From modern, ceramic-tiled bathrooms with a sliding glass door shower in each unit, to bespoke kitchens with stainless steel appliances and cooking implements, you have access to all the creature amenities of home in these well-appointed apartments. The entire property is secured by entry-door touchpads with assigned pin codes that change with each visitor. Last but not least, from level 4 up a side stairway you will find the rare luxury of a cavernous, private rooftop deck, with a handsome view of the many steeples, historic buildings, and bridges that make up Charleston's skyline, the ideal place to take in the sunset or watch as stars fill the nighttime sky.

As you venture out to discover, just steps outside the lobby door, you’ll find “Baba’s on Cannon”, a neighborhood staple serving up the best espresso and cappuccino in town, as well as breakfast pastries, craft beverages, simple fashonable tapas, and an expertly curated wine list. Inside, avoid the line and download the Baba's app to place a prepaid order to go. Next door to Baba's is the conveniently located "Queen Anne's Liquors" with everything needed to provision a pre-dinner beverage on your private balcony. Just across the street is James Beard Award-winning chef, Mike Lata’s acclaimed seafood and raw bar restaurant, “The Ordinary” (reservations on RESY are always a good idea, but two can open comfortable up to the bar and order from the full menu).

As you head down King Street toward famed Battery Park (a 30-min. walk) each striking block is steeped with historic architecture, beautiful native flora, and an eclectic mix of stores, bars, and eateries. If you walk in the other direction, there are many appealing, locally-owned bouquets and modest eateries cropping up down Cannon and Spring Street, with The Aquarium and Market Street just a short drive or long walk away.

The 21 units in the new Firetower building round out an existing complex of 10 short-term apartment rental units adjacent on each side that have been inviting visitors to relax and relax with us for over 5 years. Located amidst Charleston’s vibrant King Street social scene, the old Cannon Street home contains 4 apartments and the King Street complex has 6 units lined up in a row beside our roomy rooftop patio - which is accessible at all times, and for solely the use of our guests.

Getting the best Charleston vacation property experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal SC. To find the best value, try shifting your vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer pleasant weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic.
• Some property managers offer discounts for veterans. Ask your property manager if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Often, property management companies supply Charleston area area travel guide magazines which include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between 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.

Finding the perfect rental home in the Charleston area area:

• Begin by selecting vacation dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Sleek, peaceful condo with a full kitchen, balcony, & rooftop deck has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is generally available on booking pages. If not, call the property management company before reserving your home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what is best for your family.
• If your group is traveling with pets, search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for details on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a particular Charleston area destination you love, browse properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental

Know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, television set or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of issues.
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let burglars ruin your vacation.
• Record any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if a dispute is filed.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• On check-out day, complete a walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, take photos of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on great reviews to compel new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best vacation rental. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
