Absolutely Perfect for a family retreat for 8

We recently stayed at the Blue House for my son’s graduation. The host was organized and responsive, even helping us to find a bakery for a personal grad cake. The house is well stocked, welcoming and clean. Having a queen bedroom on the first floor with a full bath was clutch (my mom is 82) as was having 3 baths. Lots of nice walking distance options for eats and coffee. We would definitely stay again.

BAMA Belles say ROLL TIDE ROLL!

From the moments we saw the house, we thought it was charming! Upon entering, we realized the care and great furnishings the owner had provided. The kitchen and gathering rooms downstairs were our favorites. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were exceptional. Outside balconies and front porch added to the casual and and comfortable feel.

Girls trip to Charleston

We had a fantastic time in Charleston and our host, Steve, was terrific. The house was as described and Steve made sure we were completely satisfied with the accommodations. Our group of 5 women were able to feel comfortable with the 4 bedrooms and the 3 bathrooms easily met our needs. A kitchen fully equipped with all the right tools, and a popcorn maker with the corn and oil made for a fun snack at the end of the day once we wrapped up our time downtown. Easy access, either walking or by Uber, we readily made our way to town. Plenty of space for us to hang out and catch up during our girls weekend. We would definitely stay at this property again!

A Charleston Dream at the Blue House!!!

If you’re looking for a vacation spot that feels like it was plucked straight out of Pinterest and sprinkled with Southern charm, the Blue House is it. This place was chef’s kiss perfection. Let’s just say we wanted for nothing—except maybe a personal butler, but hey, the Blue House almost felt like it came with one. The backyard was the real MVP: a fire pit for stories, and plenty of space for some lounging. Whether you’re roasting marshmallows or roasting your family’s bad jokes, this backyard has you covered. Comfortable, stylish, and so relaxing that we briefly considered forgetting to check out. Whoever designed this place thought of everything. If you need a Charleston getaway that feels like home but better, look no further.

Charleston Visit

The home is very nice. A lot of work was put into this home to make it very comfortable. The owners have really made this into a wonderful house to stay in while visiting Charleston. The most popular part of Charleston is 1-2 miles away. I always appreciate the extra effort owners make so that guests feel welcome by insuring the house is ready for your visit.

Charleston

Lovely house, well-appointed and a very responsive owner. The weather defeated best intentions with 20 degree weather and snow. House was not sufficiently heated for that kind of weather and since Charleston shut down we were indoors for latter part of our stay. Also they need to figure out the TV so guests can sign in to network channels. The smart TV outsmarted us and the owner and we could not get local news which would have been helpful given the weather. The owner was kind and gracious and I hope these issues will be addressed.

Beautiful Home Away from Home

Our recent stay at the stunning blue house was nothing short of amazing! The house itself was absolutely beautiful, with tasteful decor and great amenities. It was also incredibly well stocked, from the fully equipped kitchen to the comfortable and cozy bedrooms. Steve, the host, was exceptional. He was so gracious and friendly, ensuring our stay was perfect. We would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable vacation and we can't wait to stay here again in the future!

Great Family Get-away

Well maintained property. Owner was very helpful when we had questions. He re-located the grills to make it more convenient for us to use them. Even though we checked out at noon, he was very generous to allow our son and his girlfriend to leave their luggage in the house for hours since they weren’t flying out till later that evening. There were lots of extras in the house for our convenience- laundry detergent, napkins, paper towels, spices, and so on.

Perfect host and home!

This property was amazing! The interior of the home has obviously been renovated recently and their attention to detail was very impressive. They clearly spent much time and money on this renovation! The home was spotless and we never had a single issue during our stay. We loved the front porches with rocking chairs to enjoy the warm weather. We walked to King Street several times (where many nightlife locations and restaurants are) and it was less than a mile walk through nice neighborhoods. 10/10 experience and would love to stay here on out next trip down! Would certainly recommend the hosts and their home to everyone.
