A Gathering Place for Mindful Moments, Creative Energy & Southern Serenity

Nestled beneath moss-draped oaks in Charleston’s vibrant Avondale, The Southern Zen™ is more than a rental — it's a soulful space for retreats, workshops, bridal events, and slow living. Bathed in natural light and surrounded by a handcrafted Zen garden, this thoughtfully restored 1947 cottage invites you to pause, connect, and create unforgettable memories.

It’s also home to our Baker & Blossom Kitchen, where edible flowers and artisanal goods are crafted just steps from the garden.

Whether you're hosting an intimate event, preparing for your big day, or simply seeking stillness — this is your space to root, reflect, and create something beautiful.

Your space to gather, grow, and glow.
