I am a Charlestonian native that wants to share Charleston's way of life with you!

I just finished working on the home for 5 years using every reclaimed piece of heart pine, tin, and old slate that I could re-use or find. It is very impressive to see. I think you will appreciate.

Here you can live by calming both indoors and outdoors.

Indoor -
Summons the expression of really refined Ante-Bellum experience with all modern amenities. In the kitchen savor the timeless La CornueFe gas oven and cooktop range from Saint-Ouen l'Aumone, France served by a whisper peaceful, made in the USA Vent-a-hood.

Here you can celebrate the glorious culinary traditions of the Old World using only top-of-the-line All-Clad cookware and silverware. Stemless red and white wine glasses were not overlooked. All coffee mugs, and glasses are made of clear insulated glass along with the serving plates, salad plates and bowls so rest assured every item is shining.

Tidy up after a meal using the stainless bridge faucet in the farmhouse porcelain sink. All items are stored using efficient Rev-a-shelf hardware to home the spices, cutlery, flatware and accessories. Of course, the cabinetry ,kitchen island and 8 foot tall barn doors are hand made on-site using only heart pine sourced during the remodel of the home, from the home.

Crystal-clear Samsung high-definition 4k intelligent TV with Xfinity cable. Netflix, Amazon video, and Hulu are intuitively available at the touch of the remote and are complimentary.

The bathroom is tiled using the original re-purposed slate from Vermont dating back to when the home was constructed by shipwrights in 1851. The original standing-seam tin front porch roofing was salvaged and is applied to the wall as the backsplash to the hand-made heart pine vanity with hand-hammered nickel-plated vessel sink. The bathroom features a slate-tiled walk-in shower with Kohler rain-head showers. The water closets were sourced from Kent, England to provide a period feel from the Old-World.

In every bedroom , I provide you with a sound machine as well as intelligent-charging stations for your electronic devices. Savor the combination of cypress ship-lap wood walls and heart pine throughout. Most, if not all, heart pine material used dates back to roughly the year 1600.

Outdoor-
Remember that before the advent of air conditioning, Charlestonians tended to congregate on their porches to socialize and spend time to enjoy a cool sea breeze. There are rocking chairs on the porch making it a great place to relax with a book while watching the happenings on Cannon Street. But you do not have to settle for just one porch.. you have a rear porch and patio to enjoy as well. The patio has a lounge chair couch with an Big Green Egg BBQ grille, all silverware and charcoal included.

I am 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 and Indaco, good places to have drinks like Stars, the Belmont, Dispensary and 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 Chez Nous, Chubby Fish and Fuel.

I am available for questions as needed. Glad to assist in any way I can.

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 multiple times daily so that you can land your two feet exactly where the Civil War started.

Tricks and tips to get the perfect Charleston rental experience:

Get the most from your rental home budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal SC. Reserve your Charleston area rental home in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Charleston area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 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 charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Often, management companies supply Charleston area area visitor guide magazines which will include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Charleston area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Filter your rental search:

• Begin by choosing your potential vacation weeks and a spending budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Timeless Renovated in Downtown Charleston has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is almost always accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, contact the property owner before reserving the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to work out what is best for your family.
• If there's an individual Charleston area beach you are crazy about, keep an eye out for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental
• If your family is traveling with pets, search for a property that allows animals. Request information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

More considerations for your visit:

• Be sure you get the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
• During arrival, make note of any damages to the property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of difficulties.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often an excellent resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your vacation home while you are away. Keep your property safe!
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent feedback to propel future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your review find their best vacation rental. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
