Cozy Guesthouse Nestled in Nature

Welcome to this secluded get-away conveniently located about 20 min to Folly Beach, 15 min to Kiawah and 15 min to downtown Charleston.

Relax at this newly furnished guest house in a secluded setting.

Recent guests have said:
"Excellent plac. I'd come back a thousand times. Very quiet, yet close to everything. It was the very best weekend I've had in a loooonnngggg time. Excellent hose and beautiful air-bnb." - William

"Great communication with the owner, easy check-in & out and easy to explore surrounding areas. Much nicer than a hotel room!" - Stacy

"Really enjoyed our stay here! My husband and I were in town for a wedding, and were really impressed to see how nice the space was in person" - Madison

You will enjoy an entire 1 bed 1 bath guesthouse above our attached garage. You have a separate private entrance and separate parking.

The guesthouse is accessed from an entrance at the rear of the garage. Make your way up the stairs and you are greeted by a bench made from a salvaged cotton mill flooring board from North Carolina. This main room has a futon, live edge table for setting up an impromptu office, smart TV, mini-fridge, microwave, coffee maker, and coffee table. Adjacent to the living room is the full bathroom and bedroom both behind their own doors.
Note that the futon is counted as one of the two beds listed - I would not count on it being super comfy for sleeping but would work in a pinch.

You will have full access to the guest house above the garage with a private entrance. We do not share this space with the main house. Think of this as similar to a town home or condo.

We are in 'the sticks' as some would say. You will travel on a dirt road and gravel driveway to get here. We're sorry if you just washed your car!

We are located in Charleston, SC - there are mosquitos, gnats, palmetto bugs, etc. We do employ regular pest control on this property.

The security camera listed in the details is mounted on the exterior of the garage pointed down the entry driveway.

We have two friendly dogs that you may see during your stay. They only know how to love so don't be afraid to give them a pet. Please do be careful when coming and going in your car.
You may see wild turkey, deer, hawks, owls, eagles or even a peacock during your stay.

Nice stay on Johns Island
Very private and quiet space, nicely equipped and exactly as advertised. I stayed 3 days and had zero issues or problems, but host was easy to reach. l would not hesitate to stay here again! The only other comment I would make is that Google/Apple maps is a bit off - you have to drive just a bit farther down the road and turn right into the driveway, just past the little white church.

Easter weekend
A quiet place to regroup after hours in family gatherings. Nice to have our own space. The place is quiet, sort of remote feeling but close to everything. Obviously a lot of thought and care went into preparing this place. It is beautiful and the host is very responsive to every note I sent. Loved it. Well, maybe not the stairs for these old knees but it was good exercise for them! Lol

Awesomeness
My husband & I stayed at Sam’s for his birthday weekend & it was amazing! The place was immaculate & a very comfortable “home away from home”! The location was prime in that it was close to all of the major areas that we went to while there (Charleston, James Island & Folly Beach, to name a few)…all about a 15-30 min drive away. Sam, himself, was very attentive & responsive & just a phone call…a few short steps away if needed. But, as I alluded to earlier, everything was perfect, so we didn’t need to call on him for anything…because he had already thought of everything! We would definitely stay here again if we’re ever in that area in the future!

REALLY GREAT!!
We were in Johns Island for my daughter's birthday and stayed for 3 nights. It is just beautiful - a well designed & constructed space. Easy to find though it is off the "beaten path" and is secluded. It is very clean and the bed is excellently comfortable. The Owner was always available for advice on local businesses - most importantly - the closest local coffee shop!! There is a Keurig in this cozy guesthouse but when we're on vacation, we enjoy going out for coffee. We were fortunate to meet the Owner as well as his lovely pets. Sam is great guy and so is the space he designed for visitors.

Great location on John's island. 10 min from park, 20 min to kiawah folly and Charleston proper. Great communication. There is little cell service (a good thing tbh!) but they have reliable wifi. When it went down once and I needed to send work files asap, Sam reset the router and had wifi back within the hour. I would 💯 recommend this place and hope to stay again ❤️

My boyfriend and I spent 2 nights in this amazing place! The cleanliness was impeccable. The host was SUPER helpful in communicating. It was such a beautiful place to stay in a location close to several cool spots to dine and drink! The hosts were kind enough to leave a list of their personal recommendations as well:) I wish we could have stayed longer, we will most definitely be back if we stay in the area again.

Comfortable Stay
Comfortable stay with a couple. It's big enough for more people but not enough beds. The futon would not be be comfortable for anyone other than a child or teen. While the location was perfect for our purposes (close to the wedding venue), you would need to rent a car to get anywhere else. The bed was great as well as the size of the bathroom. I would recommend a better set up for the breakfast/coffee area and adding a microwave and maybe a few items for the coffee--plenty of k-cups but nothing else. Great hosts - very private area and quiet.
