We spent this past weekend in Charleston scoping out places to live. Justin's friend Mike will be living there next year also, and came with us to find a place. We looked at about 5 different apartment complexes and were able to decide unanimously that we liked Greystar, Daniel Island the best. We put down a deposit, so the next step is to sign a lease when it get's closer to September! This place stood out from the other apartment complexes because they included a washer/dryer with rent, 2 covered parking spots and had a nice surrounding area. Daniel Island has a few shops and restuarants close by, and backs up to the athletic fields of a Catholic high school. I see some future Friday nights sitting on the porch watching football games!

We are on the waitlist for 2 different units:
The Seabrook is the 1 bedroom unit we like. It has a relatively large study which could be used as a guest room. It also has a nice large patio that spans 2 rooms.

The Rosemont is the 2 bedroom unit we looked at. It has a nice corner porch that could comfortably fit a table and chairs. They have a lot of these units so it's a bit more likely one of these will come available.

Edgewater Plantation (another Greystar property) was a close second, but charged extra to rent washer/dryer and for covered parking. The surrounding area wasn't quite as interesting either.

Central Square, Watermark was another place we looked, but we didn't really see anything special about it. It is a brand new place and is supposed to have retail soon, but right now has a lot of empty spaces.

Belle Hall was another place we looked, but again didn't see anything special and had a rude saleslady. We were only able to look at a 1 bedroom model unit, which we didn't really like.

We were unable to meet with anyone at Palmetto Place, but drove through anyways. We didn't really like the location, or the fact that it was still under construction.
