Vacation rentals with a fireplace in James Island

Finding a affordable place to stay to visit Charleston at a affordable price is extremely difficult. That is what I discovered. You can either get scalped downtown paying thousands - maybe a night - for a mediocre hotel, or take a chance to get a vrbo or airbnb close to town and get junk house in a slum neighborhood. I had to go to a wedding. So did other family members. I tailored my search for highest guest ratings and this property came up. Yeah it took 30 minutes to drive to town. but again - anything closer was a slum or a 1000+ a night in town. I was pleasantly surprised. This property is a older ranch in a middle class neighborhood that has been COMPLETELY remodeled - and I mean COMPLETELY. New appliances, new flooring, new paint, the furniture may be original but it was comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet and safe, and it was easy to travel to the city and easy to get back. My other family members picked a airbnb rental in Mt Pleasant - spent $3000 on a dump.

This was hands down the best AirBnB experience I have ever had! I arrived late and the house was all lit up. Colleen left personally touches, like fresh flowers and delicious pecan and coconut cookies. I even had a little gift waiting for me. The house felt like home. Cozy. Cute. Comfortable. Any question I had, Colleen answered right away. Great suggestions on restaurants and things to do. I, honestly, wished I could have stayed linger.

Mark and Vivian thought of everything. Wonderful experience. Great Hosts. We felt right at home. It was perfect for our two families. Quiet neighborhood. Amazing views. Easily accessible to great restaurants nearby.

The cottage is adorable. Thoughtful touches made it so inviting. It’s a quiet and beautiful setting. We loved it. Amy was also wonderful to work with.

--- I had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful Airbnb in Charleston! From the moment I arrived, I was impressed with the attention to detail and the warm, welcoming atmosphere of the place. The host provided great recommendations for local spots to check out, from restaurants to hidden gems around the city. The house itself was absolutely charmingThe décor was stylish yet cozy, and every room felt like a retreat. I especially loved the outdoor patio – perfect for sipping morning coffee or unwinding after a day of exploring the city. Location-wise, you couldn’t ask for a better spot! It was within a short driveing distance of historic landmarks, charming boutiques, and some of the best restaurants in Charleston. At the same time, the neighborhood was peaceful and quiet, providing the perfect location

My husband and I loved this place on Goose River Reservoir. I picked it because it was on the water. It was peaceful and relaxing on the enclosed back deck. It is close to great stores and eateries. About 20minutes to Charleston and Mt. Pleasant. There is plenty for kids to do at the house. The Master bed was comfy and warm. Shower was awesome. What I liked: The house felt warm and cozy. I liked being on the river and listening to the bugs, squirrels and birds. We loved being on the back deck relaxing and drinking our coffee. House rules were not overbearing, but to just clean up after yourself, no dirty dishes left in the sink, take out trash and bring the towels down to the washer. I tried to sweep, but I didn't find a broom. I spilt coffee grinds, but was able to clean it up. Communication with the owners was great and quick response! We really enjoyed our stay and would book again!

Loved this place! Spacious and in a good neighborhood which over the last few years, has been rapidly improving! Felt very safe for my family, though driving maps may take you some routes which may make you wonder as you get there. Again, it's safe and in a good neighborhood! Good location to things without being in the heart of downtown or Mt Pleasant, which would quickly increase the price ... this is a good value. Host was super easy to work with and even worked with us to allow an early check-in based upon our arrival. Emily was very responsive and communicated clearly. Place was clean though there were some carpet stains upstairs that one can live with. Only down-side was lack of window treatments or shades in the Master BR which made it impossible to block out the light. Even with this though, it was a good, clean home that I would recommend and would stay again.

great host great location..will be staying here again in the future

We had a great stay! The location was perfect, the property was clean, and I loved the modern design. Alexander and Olivia were excellent hosts—very responsive and helpful. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a stay in Charleston.

It took us awhile to pick our Airbnb for Charleston, but we were glad we picked Bohemian Darts hosted by Brett. We came to Charleston for a girls weekend with long time high school friends. The price was reasonable. The location was excellent; we could walk to North King and easily drive into the historic section. The apartment is a single second floor unit above a design business. The apartment was clean and spacious with simple, tasteful decor. The kitchen was well equipped, including a drip coffee maker and dish washer (and 8 coffee mugs!). The living room was comfortable for four of us to hang out in between activities. Brett was quick to respond to the wifi/Internet issue caused by a local outage. Parking is available onsite for one car. There is a coffee/smoothie/breakfast/wine shop across the street and a bagel place a block or two toward King. We would stay here again! (and yes, there are darts, but we didn't play)

CVP's property in The Boroughs was absolutely perfect for our family visit. The two bedrooms and bathrooms being on opposite ends of the unit allowed for privacy and space, very convenient when you bring a couple of kids. And the proximity to the highway was quite convenient, but better than that was the walkability to a vibrant nightlife, and also some great food spots. Will definitely consider staying here when visiting again!

Kenneth was very helpful and allowed us to check in early. The place was very clean and perfect for our getaway. It was in the center of all of the areas we needed to be. Thanks for a great stay!

This was a nice, well stocked place within walking distance of a bunch of great shops and restaurants. The host responded quickly and provided all the necessary information. I would stay here again and recommend to others who want to explore Charleston.

This town home is in a wonderful location. Ubers are available late into the night for a fairly low fare. If you drive it’s just a short drive to downtown and you pay for all day parking and walk everywhere.

Matthew's place was great! It was comfortable, clean, well appointed, as shown on-line, and centrally located in downtown Charleston. The bed was comfortable and gave us a good night's sleep every night (not always a given...). And Matthew was very responsive. We had a light bulb out in the bathroom; it was fixed within a couple hours. Last, but not least, when we left a phone in the apartment, Matthew saw to it that we received it the next day. He really took great care of us. We will definitely stay there again!

Great place - Florian thought of all the right details to make it feel like a great stay.

This condo was absolutely beautiful! The location was peaceful with a great view and right by a beach boardwalk. The inside looked to have been recently updated and it was done with exquisite taste. The kitchen was gorgeous and the bathrooms had a spa-like feel. It was decorated beautifully and tastefully. I appreciated that it had everything needed, but was clutter-free!

An excellent location with a great view of the lagoon, this condo was the perfect place to unwind with a week of Spring Break biking and beach walks. Comfy furniture both inside and out and a well-appointed kitchen made for an easy rainy Sunday as well as a few lazy evenings in. Night Heron Park and the beach are only minutes away by bike or on foot, making the Park Villas a convenient location for couples and families alike. We'd stay at this condo again.

This was a great spot for our group of three women. We all had our own bedroom and bathroom. We were able to prepare some meals there and had everything we needed in the kitchen. The beds were comfortable with great linens. The family room was a great space to hang out together. This was a great location and a quick walk to the private beach area.

We absolutely loved our stay at Vicki’s villa on Seabrook. The location is perfect, private and peaceful, nestled in the Live Oaks with beautiful views from each of the FOUR outdoor areas. It is an easy walk to the beach and the club, which has a great pool and lounge area on an embankment overlooking the ocean. We love to cook, and the kitchen is fabulous, well appointed with all the equipment you need to make meals. Vicki and the management were also incredible with communication. We couldn’t have asked for a better week. We highly recommend Vicki’s villa—you will experience a peaceful escape and right at home.

Absolutely wonderful stay! The house was perfect! Clean, comfortable, and in such a perfect location. We will definitely be back! Thank you!

The island is quiet and the house is cozy. It is only a short walk from the beach, which is clean with fine sands. My family enjoyed our stay, the sunset from the beach, and beautiful views from the balconies. Sandra was responsive and kind.
