What guests think
Across recent reviews, Southern Sophistication at Hickory is described as a clean, comfortable, and conveniently located townhouse base for Charleston-area visits, with many guests praising the quiet neighborhood and the host’s quick, helpful communication before and during stays.
Rooms feel cozy and well decorated, and beds are generally comfortable, though some guests reported older fixtures, soft or small mattresses, and warmer temps upstairs where cooling relies on a noisy portable unit. Shared amenities are limited; the community pool is mentioned but access and availability were inconsistent, and laundry is via a clubhouse rather than in-unit. Maintenance and stocking issues recur in a few stays (broken dishwasher, sparse kitchen items, minor cosmetic wear, occasional deep-clean or exterior tidiness concerns). Expect a simple, convenient home base with responsive hosting.

We had a great time on our trip. Shawn's Townhouse was in a prime location. We were only 20-30 mins away at most from the things we wanted to see and visit. Would use again with the understanding it's a townhouse, so neighbors, a HOA, and you are Shawn's friends.

The furnishings in the townhouse were beautiful. There is no central AC on the second floor. There is a portable unit in one of the bedrooms, but the other bedroom was hot. The blinds in one of the bedrooms is broken and let in light at night. There’s no ice maker in the refrigerator which looks new. The dishwasher was out of order and the owner provided “paper plates, cups and forks!” There was no washer and dryer in the unit and the vanity in the full bathroom was uncomfortably low. I’m 5’10 and I could only see half of my face. There was a rug in one of bedrooms that curled up which is a fall waiting to happen. I understand this is an older home, but there was a mildew odor. I understand that area has had tons of rain recently due to the storm which may account for the smell. There’s no dressers, tables or luggage rack the bedrooms for clothes or even your suitcase. The unit needs maintenance, but the art and furnishings were top notch.

My family enjoyed our stay in Ladson at this very comfortable unit. Shawn was responsive and excellent at communicating he provided our parking passes and the key fob to the laundry unit on site. The unit was accommodating and had all necessary items including flatware dishes and cookware travel size toiletry items start off toilet paper and paper towels clean linens towels/washcloths. I loved the decor in the unit and the way it was set up was perfect the bathroom upstairs that shared between the two bedrooms was great for me and my spouse and the kids to share I could easily go from our room to theirs to check on them in the night. I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for our vacation if you are looking for a spot in Ladson look no further.

Overall the stay was nice. The place was very clean and well kept. The beds were okay but they would sink in the middle. The kitchen was minimally atocked with dishes and utensils. Fortunately is was just my wife and myself and we visited family at their rentals. The washer and dryer are in the club house not actually in the unit.

As others have said, the pool was unavailable for most of our stay. They said it was due to maintenance, although there was no work being done. We would not have rented this place if we'd known we could not use the pool. Also, there was no pool pass. The owner said he would drop off the pool pass, but only if we waited at the unit for him to bring it by. With the pool not open, we were out and about, so we got no pool pass. Luckily for us, the woman smoking like a chimney who sat at the pool and collected information let us stay at the pool the one morning it was open. Also, there was a cooler hooked up in one of the bedrooms. It had a big hose that went to the window, and it sat on the floor. It was very loud, and when the temperature was close to what the thermostat was set on, it would cycle on and off every few minutes, waking me up throughout the night. In addition, there was no such unit in the other bedroom, so we left the two doors open. But the cool air did not make it to the other room, so it was warm in there.

This was the last stop on our family road trip. Shawn's place felt like home. He responded quickly to our texts and questions. Neighbors were friendly and area quiet.Community pool was not in great condition, however besides that it was a wonderful stay.

The entrance to the property was not clean, trash was dumped on the curb and left for days...it is probably still there because it was not recently dumped as weeds had grown up within the trash and fresh trash piled on before we left. I felt uncomfortable with even going into the apartment. I will never use VRBO again.

Picture online was not the picture of the house. Dishwasher broken , dishes / glasses not cleaned. ( cost us money as we ate out more, didn't want to hand wash dishes on vacation). Blinds broken , baseboards need scrubbing. Owner was responsive to calls, home condition was disappointing.

Very comfortable accommodations at Honey Ridge in a perfect location for our stay. Townhouse was extremely clean and stocked with everything that we needed. Shawn was very communicative and even came right over when I had accidentally locked myself out! (Don’t lock the bottom lock). Overall, a great experience and highly recommended!

Overall the place was okay. Certainly not extremely clean. Was not allowed to use the dishwasher for the instructions. I would say the neighborhood was certainly not safe. The code given to me by the host for the laundry room did not work. The electronic lock had to be almost broken because it took at least four attempts every time to try to get into the house. Overall I would say it was an okay place to stay

Would recommend with the caveats that the property is in need of a deep cleaning and reinvestment into repairs. Ask host for photos that show the actual townhouse interior instead of the professional photos. Not very suitable for small children (toddlers) due to all the decorations

The furnishings in the townhouse were beautiful. There is no central AC on the second floor. There is a portable unit in one of the bedrooms, but the other bedroom was hot. The blinds in one of the bedrooms is broken and let in light at night. There’s no ice maker in the refrigerator which looks new. The dishwasher was out of order and the owner provided “paper plates, cups and forks!” There was no washer and dryer in the unit and the vanity in the full bathroom was uncomfortably low. I’m 5’10 and I could only see half of my face. There was a rug in one of bedrooms that curled up which is a fall waiting to happen. I understand this is an older home, but there was a mildew odor. I understand that area has had tons of rain recently due to the storm which may account for the smell. There’s no dressers, tables or luggage rack the bedrooms for clothes or even your suitcase. The unit needs maintenance, but the art and furnishings were top notch.

If I could change anything it would be possibly queen beds in the bedrooms. It suited us for what we needed!

This quaint, townhouse rental is nestled in a family neighborhood about 12 minutes from Charleston Southern University. The host was very responsive and courteous when I had a question. The beds were very comfortable and the neighborhood was quiet. It was a very pleasant stay!

We booked this property based on the location and photos. My mother in law is older and cannot negotiate stairs. Based on the listing, we didn't even think to ask about the stairs. When we arrived we found the layout unacceptable. We left immediately and got a hotel. My biggest issue here is a total lack of communication with the host. He simply "Ghosted" us when I told him about our issue. I reached out to VRBO through their website and other than sending an email to the host on my behalf, its has been two weeks and I have heard nothing.

If you don’t require bells and whistles and need a place to crash in the area for a few days this is your place! Very convenient location close to stores and restaurants with a quick drive to downtown Charleston or the popular Nexton area. A portable air conditioner makes the master bedroom pleasant even during feels like 110 degree temperatures. Check in was easy and though furnishings were a bit dated everything was comfortable and clean.

Communication with the owner was always prompt.The property is located in a quiet area and the neighbors are polite. It was a little bit of a drive to get places like the beach. But being North of the city it was easy to go to many beaches. And lots of other places places outside of the downtown area. Overall, this was a very nice place to visit for a quiet getaway.

This quaint, townhouse rental is nestled in a family neighborhood about 12 minutes from Charleston Southern University. The host was very responsive and courteous when I had a question. The beds were very comfortable and the neighborhood was quiet. It was a very pleasant stay!

The apt was tidy and clean. The location was much further from our destination of Charleston than we figured. The commute in traffic was stressful at times. However it was closer to the Magnolia Plantation and Middleton which made it convenient .

My family and I stayed here for a quick weekend getaway to Charleston. Location was great! We were only 25 minutes away from downtown. The apartment was great size for the three of us.

Communication with the owner was always prompt.The property is located in a quiet area and the neighbors are polite. It was a little bit of a drive to get places like the beach. But being North of the city it was easy to go to many beaches. And lots of other places places outside of the downtown area. Overall, this was a very nice place to visit for a quiet getaway.

Overall the place was okay. Certainly not extremely clean. Was not allowed to use the dishwasher for the instructions. I would say the neighborhood was certainly not safe. The code given to me by the host for the laundry room did not work. The electronic lock had to be almost broken because it took at least four attempts every time to try to get into the house. Overall I would say it was an okay place to stay

I think there was everything you could possibly need in the kitchen and everything was nice and clean. The space was nice and cool and care was taken in the decor. Everything went well while we were there.
