Painstakingly they renovated and updated it to it’s former glory and then some!

So many extra touches-towels in each bedroom, luggage racks, dishes for entertaining inside and outside, books, movies – so many little extras that make you feel like you’re right at home. We especially enjoyed sitting on the porches in the morning with our coffee. The cottage has comfy beds that were much appreciated after longs days of walking in Charleston!
