The Cottage at DuPont. Elegantly Spacious with a Private Charleston Garden

A great way to "get away from it all" in Charleston. Relax and enjoy a 1064 square foot cottage with TWO Queen size beds in ONE 25' X 12' bedroom Beautifully furnished and always spotlessly clean, the cottage is a free-standing self-contained private accommodation in a beautiful Charleston garden setting​. E​njoy the well-furnished kitchen with marble countertops and ​the extra large living area with hardwood floors and ten foot ceilings where guests can share a meal and some quality time together.

Only four miles from ​Charleston's Historic District, the Cottage is​ also close to Middleton Gardens, Magnolia Gardens Drayton Hall, Charles Towne Landing​, McLeod Plantation​ and the Avondale Entertainment District,​ There are many places to ​enjoy ​close to the Cottage ​w​ithout the crowds or parking fees. ​T​ake in the gorgeous ​nearby view​s ​a​cross the Intracoastal waterway ​to Johns Island and James Island or the view to the east over the marshlands of Sandy Bay​. The ten mile long West Ashley Greenway is just two blocks to the north of the Cottage. It's great for walking and biking. All of these options are between 2 and 15 minutes away. There are several good restaurants that are walkable or less than a mile from the Cottage. Grab a pastry ​for breakfast from the bakery or have cocktails and a tasty meal​ just a block or two ​away by sidewalk.

​The hosts enjoy​ v​isiting with guests, but ​they also believe in giving people their space. ​Charlie and Rob are available during the day between 8AM and 7PM​.They are happy to assist you with local information or any special needs.​ Feel free to share ​their gorgeous Charleston garden​ anytime​. You can​ sit by the waterfall and meet ​their friendly fish and ​well-known local celebrity, Hoity Toity, the world's most passive aggressive Red​-Eared Slider. A glass of wine or a cup of coffee by the pond is a great way to unwind from a busy day of sight-seeing​. Enjoy quiet time relaxing with a good book under the shade of the pergola or enjoy​ing the smell of white ginger and gardenias from the hidden garden swing. ​The Cottage at DuPont is the place to be for your Charleston vacation.

The Cottage at DuPont is a fully licensed short term rental accommodation in the City of Charleston. PLEASE NOTE THAT WE DO NOT ALLOW PETS, CHILDREN, SMOKING OR EVENTS OF ANY KIND.

Enchanting and convenient

We just enjoyed a 5-night stay at this true oasis near downtown Charlestown. The apartment is even lovelier than in the images and the koi pond and garden are enchanting. Charlie and Rob were welcoming and very helpful with interesting suggestions for places to visit and dine. They are delightful to spend time with. We wish them well.

Wonderful and relaxing week!

We spent a week at Rob and Charlie's incredible carriage house on a park-like property in West Ashley. We had a rental car and loved the quiet location close to downtown Charleston but also close to historic sites like Middleton Place. Charlie and Rob were amazing hosts....so welcoming, gracious and helpful. The apartment is clean, spacious and tastfully decorated with a well equipped kitchen and bathroom. I definitely recommend this rental!

Loved the property and the owners were very nice. Beautiful garden in the back to enjoy sitting outside, and the house was very modern and homey to stay at. Would stay at again and would definitely recommend.

A little slice of heaven

Charlie and Rob have created a beautiful oasis of calm and comfort in West Ashley, (Charleston). The loft itself is wonderfully appointed and tastefully designed. The freshly ground coffee was delicious, as was the choice of wines, already in the wine rack. Our hosts were delightful company; relaxing with them at the koi pond was the perfect way to wind down after a long day exploring downtown Charleston. We loved their suggestions for restaurants and historic sites.Highly recommended!!

Southern hospitality in a peaceful setting

So grateful to Charlie and Rob for creating a beautiful space in such a warm and welcoming environment. From the sweet Koi Pond to the cottage itself, they thought of everything that a guest would need for comfort. It’s rare to find a VRBO and owners as dedicated and kind as this one. Thank you both!!
