The home is managed locally by Southern Charmed Hospitality Group so someone is always available should any issues or concerns arise during your stay.

The home is located on James Island in a handsome residential neighborhood with a rich history, as the Civil War began only a mile from the home when Confederate forces on Fort Johnson fired on Union-occupied Fort Sumter. Located in one of the most convenient locations in all of Charleston, the home is only a stone`s throw away from multiple local parks, a 10 min. drive to Downtown Charleston, and a 15 min. drive to Folly Beach.

- Harborview-Fort Johnson Park: 1 block away
- Pinckney Park: 1/2 mile away
- Melton Peter Demetre `Sunrise Park`: 1 mile away
- Nearest supermarket/pharmacy (Harris Teeter/CVS): 1.3 miles away
- Downtown Charleston: 5.5 miles away
- Folly Beach: 8.3 miles away

While there are multiple parks within walking distance of the home, you will want your own car to take full advantage of exploring the Charleston area as public transportation is not a convenient option.

Uber/Lyft both operate in the area if you would prefer to leave your car parked. Just request a pickup through the respective apps.

HOME

This is not a event home. The home is located in a residential neighborhood and the neighbors are to be respected. No exceptions!

Please read all of the home rules before booking. They will be stringently enforced.

POOL/HOT TUB

The pool is NOT HEATED so is only available during the warmer months of April-October. Guests staying during the spring and fall months should be aware that the pool temperature may be cooler depending on the weather and that we have no control over the water temperature.

The hot tub is available year-round!

POOL/HOT TUB CLEANING

Pool and hot tub maintenance will be scheduled separately every Thursday or Friday, so guests should expect to see the cleaners on either of those days. The pool and hot tub are professionally cleaned ONLY once a week during season so please note that weekly cleaning may be scheduled during your stay during normal business hours. If guests arrive towards the end of the weekly cleaning cycle they may want to “skim before they swim”, as it is possible that there may be some mild algae buildup or debris as is typical for outdoor pools. A pool vacuum, skimmer, and brush are included. As this is a private home and not a hotel or resort, daily pool cleaning is not supplied.

LANDSCAPING

Landscaping is done around every two weeks and not on an exact schedule so guests should anticipate that landscaping could be done during normal business hours at some point during their stay.

CANCELLATIONS

Guests will receive a 95% refund up to 30 days before check-in. After that, no reservations are given.

DAMAGE DEPOSIT

A $500 damage deposit will be pulled from the card used for booking prior to the departure date. This deposit will be completely returnable to the card within 5-10 business days after departure if there are no claims made for damages.

HOME MANUAL

The home manual with all of the details needed for your stay will be sent out at 9am THE MORNING OF YOUR ARRIVAL directly in the message thread of the account used for booking.

Please do not ask for it earlier, or ask for it to be sent elsewhere.

INCLEMENT WEATHER

Your safety and comfort are our priority. In the unlikely event of a MANDATORY EVACUATION ORDER FOR CHARLESTON COUNTY during your stay, rest assured that both the Owner/Host and the Property Management Company WILL REFUND 100% OF YOUR PAYMENTS for the dates of evacuation only. Once refunded, neither event will have further liability regarding your Reservation.

Please note that ONLY MANDATORY EVACUATIONS WILL QUALIFY FOR REFUNDS. No other travel disruptions due to weather, whether in South Carolina or other states, are eligible. For protection, consider travel insurance, especially in high-risk months like hurricane season. Airbnb`s insurance or other options are recommended.

INSECTS

As Charleston is located in a warm, coastal climate it is possible to see insects inside or outside of the home at times. These include palmetto bugs, sand gnats, mosquitoes, ants, etc. Those who live in the Lowcountry just accept this as part of living here but it may be unsettling for those from other areas. The home is treated regularly for pest control but this will not entirely eliminate insects from getting inside at times. Please do your best to not keep doors and windows open and not leave food or drinks out in the home as this will attract insects. FINDING AN INSECT IS NOT CAUSE FOR A REFUND

We appreciate your understanding and are here to assist with any inquiries. We look forward to your visit.
