Credit 1 tennis tournament

The location was great , only 15 minutes to the stadium and 8 minutes to Shen Creek. The host company was very responsive and the rental unit was the best supplied I have ever had.

Charleston Trip

We really enjoyed our stay at this location. The house was just as we expected from the description at time of booking. The neighborhood was nice and quiet. Everything we wanted to see and do was just a few minutes drive away. It was a great location and we would definitely consider returning.
