My GF and I visited SC in Nov 2013 and stayed in Carla and her husband Jesse's guesthouse. They were both excellent hosts and the guesthouse was beautiful beyond our expectations. As another reviewer mentioned, the guesthouse is also surprisingly private, and the private hot tub was a definite selling point for us.

When we arrived, Carla and Jesse greeted us with their beautiful baby boy and handsome dog Kona. They gave us plenty of tips and gave us an overview of the guesthouse. They have a great "welcome list" on the table for new guests, and even left the hot tub running for us so it was warm when we arrived. We were thankful for the two sets of towels to use for the hot tub and shower.

We took advantage of its proximity to the main downtown attractions and walked to places like the SC Boardwalk, West Cliff, a nice brewery, neighborhood cafes and restaurants. We also went to a nice spa called Well Within, which I highly recommend.

My only "complaint" (if you can call it that), is that the guesthouse gets quite cold and there is no heating, from what we saw. There is a small heater in the closet but it has an automatic shutoff function and it was not enough to heat the place. I particularly like the cold so this was not a big problem for me, but my GF was freezing. Fortunately there are lots of extra blankets in the closet to keep warm.

Overall, we had a great stay and I would definitely stay here again in the future. Thanks Carla and Jesse for the hospitality, and a wonderful stay in SC!
