Historic City Charm | Private Modern Luxe
Turn back time, in this historical home, downtown Charleston, waltzing across polished wood floors past huge sash windows in a period loft. Heritage colors, design, and a mix of new and traditional pieces like an old-fashioned writing bureau add to the grandeur of 12-foot ceilings and original fireplaces. Ideal for a Couple, on a romantic getaway or a girls weekend in the top city of Charleston. Private, spacious 1,000 sq. ft. Private, off-street Parking with EV charger. Permit: OP2025-06356

Charleston Harbor view, garage apt
Spacious apartment with high ceilings. The back porch has a fantastic view of Charleston harbor. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood, very close to downtown and also to beaches. Private dock, kayaks, bicycles (not fancy) and the possibility, weather and tides permitting, of a motorboat ride around the harbor. It is incredibly peaceful here; like being in the country, but it's in the middle of the city. Mt Pleasant Short Term Rental License #STR250333, MP Business License # 20132659

The Backpacker
Our "Backpacker" is a cute and cozy 96 sq.ft. of tiny house nirvana. Situated on a small tidal slough, it provides a beautiful natural setting for reflection and appreciation of that which is good in life.

However, the Backpacker has a pretty cool vibe, and is extremely convenient to historic Charleston and Funky Folly Beach. The Backpacker is for backpackers and nature lovers.
