The interior of the house is very attractive and in good condition, with an attractive covered porch, and a lovely backyard. The master bedroom is large and has a huge bathroom. The other 2 rooms have an adjoining bathroom, and good for a family to share. Four minutes from an amazing bakery and takeout called Kudzu. Our only issue was one morning three people had hot showers, but the forth and five people had cold showers so keep showers short if you have a group. A lovely property.

Very nice!
We really enjoyed our stay here. It’s a beautiful home- spacious, clean and comfortable! The neighborhood and location were also great. We didn’t have time to enjoy all the amenities offered but look forward to coming back! We also really appreciated the ease of communication with the couple of questions we had. I definitely recommend this place!!!

Lovely Home For Our Christmas Stay
We had a wonderful experience at Phils Place. Checking in and out was very simple. It's in a very convenient location and provided us with plenty of space which is why we chose to stay here over a hotel. The kitchen equipment is fully stocked, we were able to get Uber/ Lyft rides very easily, and everything was clean. The screened in porch area is lovely and provided a nice additional hang out space. If I had to give constructive criticism it would be that both showers need updating (even replacing just the shower heads would be a big improvement!) and we are used to sleeping with a fan which no bedroom had (but easily solved with a trip to Lowes and a $25 box fan... not a deal breaker). Overall- we would 100% stay here again!

Nice place!
Overall pleasant stay. Good location in Mount Pleasant, spacious, with nice amenities. Missing a few items like trash bags, tissues, and sofa produces a lot of down feathers. Manager is very helpful and responsive. Great yard for dog!

Charleston Getaway
We had a great time at this property right outside of Charleston. It was in a fantastic location halfway between the beaches and downtown. The house had plenty of room and was well equipped to host the 8 of us! Some of our favorite moments were sitting out in the outdoor patio just chatting! Great stay.
