"We had a wonderful stay at Ginger's beautiful apartment! The apartment was meticulously clean, the beds incredibly comfortable and the overall feel of the apartment was first class!

Harbor View Suite in Historic Georgetown

8/10 Good

"Very cute place. Just a few safety things. No smoke detectors that we could see. Plus the door to the building had to be locked when leaving however it was not several times. Kind of a safety thing I think. But overall the place was very clean and cute. Great location."

427 Broad Street - Downtown Georgetown

10/10 Excellent

"We love staying here as it feels like home and is convenient to the activities we plan in the area. The kitchen is perfect for heating up breakfast casseroles in the adorable gas oven (we eat dinner out). There is a full-size washer and dryer should you need use of it. The host is fantastic! She responds promptly when contacted. We will be back!"

The Red Door House in Historic Georgetown

10/10 Excellent

"This was the best rental that I have ever stayed in and I have stayed in a lot! the location was prefect. It was only blocks away from Front St. Driveway was long enough to accommodate 3 large vehicles. The wrap around porch with the swing and the outdoor lights were so southern and charming. The backyard was enormous! The back patio had table, chairs, and grill. I absolutely loved the inside of the home and the way it was decorated. It had everything you would possibly need. There were even universal phone chargers in the living room, kitchen and Master bedroom. I would highly recommend The Red Door home in Georgetown.Karen Wilson"

Antique Tugboat on the Harborwalk

8/10 Good

"Host was amazing and the overall experience was great! Charming little boat and great atmosphere around the pier. Could have been a little cleaner."
