JAN/FEB discounts Avail-We love pets and they love our amenities

Welcome to our quaint little cottage nestled in the heart of old Summerville. The cottage is a little over a century old.; and, actually pre-dates the main house. We tried hard to strike a balance between updating the property and preserving its authentic historic charm. The cottage enjoys the shade of beautiful, majestic oak trees whose limbs almost touch the ground. Guests are allowed to tour the gardens next to the main house, built by the Prettyman family when Summerville was a sleepy little town.
The cottage has 2 bedrooms, one with a king-bed, the other with a full bed that accommodates 4 comfortably . Brand-new range, microwave, refrigerator, and washer/dryer . Also, new 4K HD TV's in living area and master bedroom. Kitchen is fully-stocked with coffee-maker ,toaster, blender , cookware, and utensils for those that like to fix their own meals. However, with so many stellar restaurants in the area, dining out is often the best option.

Quaint Cottage
This cottage is quaint, and the property around it is very pretty. It is a quiet setting, but yet not too far from the town. The cottage is equipped with everything You need to be comfortable. And it was very clean. The 90-year-old man who lives in the large house next to it is an extra bonus. He is friendly warm and Kind. He loves to talk about the history Of the town, and he gives a wonderful tour of the big house he lives in.

Enjoyed Our Stay!
Enjoyed this quaint, historic cottage, which was beautifully decorated on a gorgeous property! As most other reviews have stated, George was definitely a huge bonus and we so enjoyed visiting with him. His warm southern hospitality was wonderful! The location of the property was excellent. The only downside was a distinct musty smell, but I imagine this comes with the territory of staying in an historic cottage.

Great for a longer stay!
My husband and I had a wonderful time during our two week stay! The house was comfortable and spacious enough for us and our two dogs, and we were able to easily work during the day. George was very kind, and we very much enjoyed spending time with him and touring the main house. If we need to stay in Summerville again, we will certainly book with Allison!

Wonderful property and hosts
My husband , pooch and I stayed for 2 weeks. The cottage was charming comfortable and well equipped. The location was perfect walkable to town and short rides to Charleston and beach. The grounds were full of Camelias and azaleas. The best part was dealing with Allison and her Dad George. Southern hospitality at its best ! Will definitely be back .

Perfect SC stay
We loved the character of the cottage and the beautiful grounds. It was a pleasure to get to know George over our 2 week stay. He truly loves visitors and goes above and beyond to make you feel like you are staying at an extension of his home. The neighborhood is lovely and in walking distance to downtown. We worked during our 2 week stay and had no issues. Our pup loved it too! Highly recommend.
