**Important Things To Know**

-The upstairs guest room with 2 twin beds is a modest bedroom typical of the early 1900s era. The room and beds are great for kids due to the size. The room/beds will accommodate average sized adults who don't mind sleeping in a smaller room with limited space.

-In summer months, the temperature can be a few degrees warmer upstairs than it is downstairs due to the age of the home. Upstairs Master bedroom 1 has its own en suite full bathroom. Upstairs bedrooms 2 & 3 will share a full bathroom. The downstairs guest room has its own half bathroom, but the only showers (2) are upstairs.



Other Things To Note:

-Less than a block to Front Street
-2 min. walk to the Kaminski House & the Harborwalk
-Street parking for boats & trailers (1 mile from East Bay Boat Landing)
-2 driveway spots next to home

-Keeping in mind the of the age of the home and its original features (wood floors, front door, etc), I ask if possible to please remove shoes by the front door to reduce wear on the 100+ year old floors. Please treat the home tenderly as to keep everything in great condition for years to come.

How to get the best Georgetown vacation rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal SC. To find the best value, change your vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer pleasant weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Georgetown, SC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Often, management companies supply Georgetown, SC area visitor guides that include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Georgetown, SC area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

• Choose a group leader, choose your dates, and select a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Entire 103 Yr Old Historic+Minimal Georgetown Home has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email the host before you reserve the rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You will need to establish what is optimal for your vacation.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Upon check-in, record any damages to the property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your peaceful home. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a great stay? Many rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
