She personifies hospitality and graciousness like no one else. No wonder she’s been voted the “most polite city” more times than any other place in the country (and quite arguably, the world.)
Here you find history preserved and appreciated, lovingly maintained and restored. She takes the time to tend the flowers in her gardens and her window boxes. To cook shrimp & grits ever so slowly on the stove so it comes out just right.
The world spins a little bit slower here in the Lowcountry. Life is good, and her people reflect it. Folks smile. Take the time to visit, acknowledge your presence, give good directions. Recommend a fine place to eat.
Her roots run far back in history. Charleston, South Carolina is a historic grande dame and a lady of “firsts”… yet she is also vibrant and alive culturally. Being a port city — welcoming folks from all over the globe, a continuous fresh influx of culture and ideas, ships and tourists all coming to call — it has a way of keeping her fresh and alive, and very cool.
And now, her beauty is topped off by one of the more elegant bridges in the world… the perfect place to walk, bike and catch the views of her delicate skyline and fair harbor.
She also understands the importance of rest, of heading to one of the local islands for some R&R. Taking the time to breathe in the ocean breezes and experience the tranquility and joys that are found at the beach.
There are several wonderful islands for you to choose from— all within close enough proximity to enjoy Charleston’s charms, during afternoon outings or evenings on the town.
Which island matches your personality? Whichever one you choose, it's the perfect place for the vacation home of your dreams! |
