Summary:
Live like a local in this show-stopping three bedroom, two bath apartment located in downtown Charleston. Housed in an historic home dating to 1851, every detail of the rental was entirely remodeled in 2017 to feature antique heart pine floor, tongue and groove walls, European hardware dating to the original period of the home, a completely bespoke kitchen, brand new washer and dryer, and more.
The Space:
The floorplan is ideal for socializing with an open concept living room and eat-in kitchen on one end and the three bedrooms on the opposite end. The living room and kitchen look out on Cannon street, one of Cannonborough-Elliotborough neighborhood’s most vibrant streets, home to many fashionable stores and eateries all just steps from the rental.
The chef-ready bespoke kitchen features high-end kitchen appliances that make it convenient to whip up any meal – although with so many great eateries within blocks of the rental, it may be hard to resist going out for meals. Off of this living room/kitchen area is a classic Charleston porch, offering guests an outdoor area to visit and people watch.
All three bedrooms boast comfortable queen beds with plush linens. Two of the three bedrooms feature full ensuite bathrooms (shower and toilet – no baths). One of the two bathrooms opens both to the bedroom as well as the hallway, accepting the third bedroom to access the bathroom from the hallway just off the bedroom.
The rental is located on the second floor (spiral staircase!). Absolutely no events or late-nighttime noise will be tolerated.
Guest Access:
You have access to the sizable front porch with dedicated seating for only you, rear porch, and patio with big Green Egg charcoal grille, charcoal being complimentary of course.
The Neighborhood:
Once the site of colonial lumber mills, Cannonborough is now an inviting neighborhood blending modren historic and reproduction architecture. It's also located within walking distance of Upper King Street's magnificant eateries, stores, and bars.
Getting Around:
There is plenty to see and places to visit within walking distance. Uber and Lyft are very common. You will not face any delay catching an uber.
Other Things to Note:
We are three blocks from King Street. Cannon Street dead ends into King where you would be right in the middle of all the activity - many nice eateries such as The Darling, the Grocery, Ordinary, Endaco, good places to have drinks like Stars, the Belmont, Midtown, Prohibition. There are also great niche eateries closer than King Street. Pick the experience - fine dining to casual outdoor dining, it is here. You could look up Hominy Grille, Chez Nous, Trattoria Lucca, Fuel, Goulette. Since Cannon Street (and Spring Street) are the only legal areas in the city to host an AirBnb in Charleston, you will be in good company here.
If you want the full Charleston experience you need to sign up for a walking tour or carriage tour, a must. If you have sea legs and are aiming for total immersion into history, the steamboat runs to Ft. Sumter numerous times daily so that you can land your two feet at exactly where the Civil War started.
Interaction with Guests:
We are available for questions and we're glad to assist in any way we can.

Finding the best Charleston rental home experience:
Getting the most from your rental home budget:
- The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Booking your rental home six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
- Summer is the most expensive season in Charleston. To find the largest rental within your budget, we strongly suggest booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities.
- Some property management companies offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
- Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
- Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Charleston area area visitor guide magazines which often include special offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship 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.
Planning, selecting, and booking the perfectrental:
- Start by having your group agree to vacation dates and a maximum budget.
- Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Renovated 1850s Mansion in Downtown has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
- Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property manager before reserving the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
- If your group is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, property owners charge additional pet fees.
- If there's a certain Charleston area destination you long to visit, keep an eye out for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
- Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
Some things to know before you go:
- Add the owner's phone number to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
- Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents lots of concerns.
- Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would at home.
- During arrival, record any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
- Respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
- Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
- Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal items. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
- Go through the property a final time and look for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, take video of the property to record its condition.
- Did your family have a fantastic time? Many rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. 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 it a point as part of your review.
