Cozy and quaint

Quiet and secluded. Beds were very comfortable. Perfect for a couple. Easy drive to Charleston. Steeper stairs to bedroom, may not be ideal for older people.

cute little cottage.

Our cottage was as the photos showed. You know sometimes what is portrayed in photos is not what you get, but this cottage was definitely true to the photos. It was VERY CLEAN!! And nice. The kitchen space my favorite. It was nice space to have a place to eat at the end of our day, as well as to wake up and have coffee. Loved having a nepresso machine too. The beds were very comfortable!! Although a little small for myself with my spouse. They seemed like a full size mattress, but maybe that is because I am use to a king size at home. The property is beautiful! The pool was great to swim in to cool off. Definitely would recommend this property. Thank you Allyson!

Terrific stay!!!

The hosts were most welcoming to us and to our family members. They were very gracious and did everything to make us feel at home during our stay. Highly recommend 'Hearts of Arden' as a destination.

Pleasant stay at Hearts of Arden

Our family had a short but pleasant stay with Allison and Ron. The grounds are beautiful and the cottage was updated and clean. Plenty of options for food a short drive away. Would stay again if we are back in the area.

Hearts of Arden - Casino

We enjoyed our stay at the Hearts of Arden - Casino. This was a quaint and cozy cottage and easily accommodated our party of 3 adults. The beds were super comfy. The estate grounds are spectacular set in a quiet neighborhood and within a leisurely walk to historic Summerville. The kitchenette was stocked with coffee pods and the fridge had courtesy bottled water. Use of the full-size clothes washer & dryer was a plus. Host Allison & Ron were excellent hosts welcoming us to enjoy Happy Hour on Friday evening with them and other cottage guests. We were able to use their outdoor grill top to cook up our breakfast. Their pool was also available for our use. We would definitely return for another visit. Thank you, Allison & Ron for making our stay comfortable and relaxing.

Elizabeth Arden's former Estate Summerville

This is a delightful cottage that is safe, clean, comfortable, and well located, and the numerous small, thoughtful touches put it over the top. The upstairs bedroom has the most comfortable beds we tended to sleep in. The grounds are truly magical! Being both in the middle of the of historic Summerville and yet was so quiet and felt secluded. It is within easy walking distance of the center of town. Ron & Allison are the most thoughtful, gracious hosts and literally thought of everything a guest might need! they provided us with all the information we needed and we’re always available. They went way beyond to make our stay comfortable. This peaceful place is absolutely what I expected based on the photos. If you are considering this spot- book it! Thanks Ron & Allison for a wonderful home away from home! MaryAnne & Pat

Ready to feel fabulously fancy?

I cannot fully express how grateful I am that my husband convinced me to book our Charleston stay at Hearts of Arden. The pictures do not do this place justice. This historic estate is a time capsule--transporting you to another time, another place, when folks were fabulously fancy and putting on the ritz. Three days wasn't enough to soak up the experience that Hearts of Arden offers. Though our weekend trip was originally meant to explore Charleston, this place is a destination unto itself.
