Requests for reservations larger than this will be assessed case by base. If this home is booked, check out our other property next door: airbnb.com/h/childfriendlyretreat

Good to know

The space Our home makes a great "home base" for busy days at work or at play in the Charleston area. You will appreciate quick freeway access which makes getting around a breeze. We are located: 25 minutes from Mt. Pleasant, downtown Charleston, & West Ashley's plantations; 30 minutes to IOP/Sullivan's beaches; 15 minutes to Summerville, the airport, & Tanger Outlets; 5-10 minutes to grocery stores, mall, Target/Wal-mart, hospital & Wannamaker Park (playground, water park, etc.). We own the entire property and a have both sides of the property as AirBnB rentals (See Child-Friendly Retreat Near Charleston for our other listing). Our home is approximately 1650 sq ft. Bright living room has stylish & comfortable furniture, including 2 reclining swivel chairs. We have only one TV (a smart one!) in the house, located here. We have a bright, spacious, well- appointed kitchen should you like to enjoy some baking or cooking while you're here! Due to allergies/asthma, our home is pet, smoke, and carpet free. We have three bedrooms: The master has a Casper Element king sized bed, en suite bathroom with tub, dual closets with plenty of shelving and hanging space, private sitting area, lamps with USB charging ports, ceiling fan, and room-darkening drapes. The second bedroom has a Casper Element queen bed and a crib (height appropriate for toddler), a dresser with changing pad, walk in closet, a nursing chair (swivels, rocks, and reclines), ceiling fan, and black-out drapes. The third bedroom has a twin bunk bed with removable bed rails (effectively making the bottom bunk double as a toddler bed, and making it easier to change linens). Bunk bed does not have a ladder (big kids can climb up the side no problem), preventing little ones from accessing top bunk. Room has plenty of floor space, books and toys for playing, a walk in closet large enough for a travel crib, a floor fan (safe for little ones!), and black-out drapes. House has a small, bright office nook with two workspaces. Laundry room has front loading washer and dryer. Both bathrooms have tubs. All blinds in home are cord free and we keep outlet covers on low, exposed outlets. We have a Keekaroo high chair, a KidKraft playset, and several other outdoor toys. Private fully fenced back yard has lots of room for little ones to run around and a patio for grilling out or enjoying a meal. Property is well lit from the street to the backyard by automatic exterior and security lighting. Off street parking is available for 2 to 3 cars. Neighborhood has a tennis court & playground, & our house is located 2 blocks from a fire station in the event of an emergency. Other things to note: Please note that an active train track does run directly behind our house, but trains are normally not allowed to blow their whistles, so it is just the rail noise. If you are a light sleeper, we suggest you bring ear plugs or a white noise machine. It does not disturb us or our children.

Other Details to Note

An active train track runs behind our house, but you will rarely hear a whistle unless there is an emergency. We suggest a sound machine if the rail noise will bother you at night.

Accessibility

Neighborhood

One of our favorite things to do is go on a walk or ride bikes through our beautiful neighborhood, which also has a playground, a reservoir front park, and tennis courts, all short walks away. Our neighborhood is regularly monitored by police (watch those stop signs!) and grocery stores, restaurants, and shops are right outside the neighborhood.

We really enjoyed our visit and stay at Shannon's place. It was such a functional, fun home with toys for the kids (inside and outside), games, wholesome books, and everything needed to care for young children and babies. I also appreciate only having one TV and none in the bedrooms so the kids could easily go to sleep. The home was in a very nice neighborhood and we felt very safe. The biggest downside was the railroad right behind the house. This is noted in the description, but it still important to note. If you are a sensitive sleeper, it would be best to sleep in the master bedroom, as it's the furthest bedroom away from the tracks. Shannon was very responsive to all my messages and very friendly. I appreciate the opportunity to stay in her home and hope to do it again if we are ever in the area.

Stayed at Shannon’s place for a wedding in Charleston I was in, and we brought the in-laws to watch our toddler while we went to the wedding. The child-friendly amenities were the reason I chose to book, and it was so worth it!! Our 2.5 year loved the playset and the toys—it was so nice. The location was easy to get to other places from, and I would stay here again 100%!!!

The location was convenient to Charleston, close enough to get there pretty easily but outside of the city. The rooms were very nice and everything was very clean. Overall, very good stay and would definitely recommend.
