September stay
We were in Summerville for several weeks and this property was perfect. It is in a quiet neighborhood and close to everything around town. My dog loved the large backyard, and the house was well stocked with everything we needed for our stay.

Communication is the key to all success
House was everything it was advertised to be - unique, spacious, clean, nice location - couldn’t really ask for more.
My only issue, and reading all the reviews seems to be a one off, was communication with owners. I know the owners were traveling in an area with limited internet access and several time zones away and the emergency contact (I found out after the fact) was ill. But in our case, bad weather came through(which is out of everyone’s control) and trees came down causing property damage and loss of electricity.
It took multiple attempts to get ahold of anyone.
Owner did agree to refunding money and we moved on with our trip.
I would come back to this property but I would want to make sure I can get ahold of someone when needed.

Bigger is better !!
Just finished a 26 day stay at the beautiful Retro Ranch. It is our 2nd time staying there and our 3rd booking with John and Erin. We’ve always had a great stay with them. They shoot for 5-Stars and it’s not just talk. They earn them with all the perks you receive with booking their property. We reported to them that the 55 inch tv in the living room broke on Thursday morning and by 6:30 pm the same day we had a new 65 inch tv ready for March Madness. My Pekingese Elsie loves the fenced in back yard. We celebrated 2 birthdays and Easter while staying there and as an avid cook and baker the kitchen had everything I needed. I can go on and on but all the consistent five star reviews say it all. Just book it!!!

Loved this home
This home was perfect for us. Everything we needed was here and great detailed information. Visited for our Grandson’s ‘Recognition and Corps Day” at the Citadel in Charleston and spent most of our time there with a full slate of events. We enjoyed coming back to Summerville to relax. Enjoyed a few local restaurants, especially Oscars. We recommend the ‘Retro Ranch’

Weekend in Summerville
Great house in a great location. Quiet neighborhood but only 3-5 minutes to the heart of historic downtown Summerville and 15 mins to the best cluster of restaurants outside Downtown Charleston (Nexton - Halls Chophouse, Poogan's). The host has done a charming job of renovating a Mid-Century era brick home into a retro cool open-concept marvel. See how many French bulldog motifs you can spot! :)

Great location
We really enjoyed our stay in this cute retro ranch. We were relocating to Summerville and needed a place to stay between closings. This was the perfect solution. It was very roomy and nicely decorated. The proximity to the town of Summerville was an added bonus.

Beautiful Home
We loved our stay. The house was terrific, impeccably clean,well-maintained, and tucked away in a small community in Summerville. The backyard is fenced-in, so my dogs enjoyed exploring the large yard. Our experience staying in the house was great! We hope to stay again on our next trip.

Lovely and Relaxing
If you read all the positive reviews about this home they are all accurate. We have stayed in several VRBO properties and this one is exceptional. We had no issues checking in and followed the rules that are in the House Manual. The purpose of our trip was to visit family and to see if this would be a place we might want to live one day. Staying here gave us a glimpse of what it would be like. It is calming and relaxing. The people in town are very friendly. We spent the majority of our time in Charleston. In the evenings, we would go to the park and take walks through town. We brought our dog and found that almost everywhere we visited was pet friendly. One night we had pizza at Benny Mazzetto's and it was excellent. There are a lot of outside dining options in town and nearby. We had a great time and we loved the house. We thank Erin for making our trip memorable. I am certain many others will have the same experience.

Great home, centrally located, as described in listing
We enjoyed our recent stay at the "retro ranch." The property is spacious and clean and was perfect for our family of five. We will certainly try to book this property again the next time we're visiting family in Summerville.

Nice place for a respite or area visit
The retro-ranch is a good sized home with a large yard in an older neighborhood full of beautiful trees. It is perfect for a quiet getaway or to visit the area of Summerville. The home is fully functional while at the same time being minimal. The amenities are basic and in need of a refresh, especially in the kitchen.
There are a number of House Rules and security alerts in place such that the owners are notified of any disturbance. Also, guests are not allowed to stream content from a personal computer. To watch the TV, be sure to have a Netflix or Hulu account (I have neither) otherwise it is commercial ridden Sling TV, assuming that even functions, which it didn't during my stay. The property manager - not a true property manager but a family friend - did not know how to fix it.
Despite these minor issues, I give 5 stars as my stay was pleasant and restful.

Retro Ranch is the perfect name for this place.
Great spot for a long weekend to visit family/graduation. The house is full of character. We loved all the little details, from the unique artwork throughout the house, to the fairy garden, even the solar system items. The carport was great. With a tropical storm spinning off the coast, we had plenty of rain so loading and unloading the van would have been really wet without the nice spot to park. The kitchen was well equipped and had a gas stove.
Plenty of space for 2 teens, 4 adults, and a spoiled rotten small dog.
