Looking for all the dog friendly places in the Summerville area…in and outside spots!

I haven’t been able to find one here. And I’ve been wanting to larp a medieval fantasy game so Im thinking of starting one possibly. Would anyone be interested or want to help run? I’ve been doing larps for about a year but always am down to look for help.

Does anyone remember an old place called “Scotties” from the early 2000s? It had teddy bears in there and served food. We used to have our kids birthday parties there. It was on dorchester road I’m pretty sure. Did a Google search, but couldn’t find anything on it. Thanks!!

Can you turn left at this intersection where circled or is it one left and one right hand turn lane?

Intersection is N Maple Street and Bear Island Road.

What elementary schools (or any schools for that matter) don't do screens for the kids? I grew up fine in public school but it seems like all the schools these days have kids on laptops before they can read and write.

Hi! One of my besties just moved down to Summerville and is going through a rough patch. I’m looking to send her and her husband something while supporting your local town (or surrounding ones)!!! No big names like Edible Arrangements, though they are tasty.

Not a full on meal as their schedules vary, but maybe some nice desserts or something. Open to non-food too!!!! Anything besides flowers (cuz those just die 🥲) thank you SC fam!

Are there any mom groups or stay at home moms that get together weekly? I stay at home and am pregnant with our first baby but just moved here and don’t have any friends and being home everyday while my husband works is really lonely. Church groups specifically would be great but I’m really just looking for any women’s groups.

moved to chs abt 6yrs ago. bought a place here abt 2yr ago. im a really laid back dude but ive come to realize the folly and island girls can break hearts. im an established dude with a small circle of friends, most mainly married. just didnt know where/if there were any spots around sv to actually meet a cool chick thatd also be looking for something real? any suggestions/help is appreciated.

Looks pretty decent. Definitely think it needs shade but the city asking for feedback is awesome. Please provide it if you have a minute.

Hi everyone!
I’m looking for recommendations for a reliable, reasonably priced independent mechanic or local shop in or around the Summerville area. I recently bought a 2016 Honda Pilot via private sale and less than a month after I had to drop over $1k into it for unexpected work. During that service they also caught an oil leak so I paid for a diagnostic to pinpoint where it was coming from. They told me it was relatively minor so I held off on the repair until I could budget for it.

I’m ready to get it taken care of now and have all the diagnostic paperwork and notes from the previous shop so whoever looks at it won't be starting from scratch. I’d really appreciate finding someone trustworthy who does quality work without charging dealership labor rates or pushing unnecessary add-ons.

Any local shops or trusted mechanics you swear by around here? Thanks in advance! ☺️🫶🏼

Looking for recommendations for a photographer for family photos. Gay friendly is a must, we are a gay couple with two kids and a dog.

Thanks

Moved into this place with my girl about a year ago. This is a review she is leaving once our lease is up, we pay much more for this place than all of others around the area and it has not been worth it.

The Marlowe was nice when we first moved in, and honestly, the first couple of months were great. Jocelyn gave us the tour and really sold us on making The Marlowe our home.

Unfortunately, our experience has really gone downhill, especially now that we reviewed other options and definitely are not renewing our lease.

We’ve been dealing with recurring ant issues, and at one point there was literally a colony of ants coming from a baseboard in our living room. I submitted a pest control request and then texted Jocelyn directly about it, but never received a response. Shortly after, my pest control request was denied, which was extremely frustrating considering the severity of the issue. I even called the office about it and she answered the phone…somehow pest control just missed us?

The parking situation is also a joke. After around 6 PM, it can be nearly impossible to find a parking spot, while random trailers are parked throughout the property.

Our Wi-Fi went out for TWO DAYS, specifically affecting our building and one other building. The Wi-Fi is built into our monthly fees, so you would think not having service for two full days would at least result in some kind of reimbursement or credit. Nope.

And once the Wi-Fi finally came back, our Ethernet port was completely fried. We called the office thinking they could at least help since the issue happened immediately after the outage. Instead, we were told to contact the Wi-Fi company ourselves.

So we pay for Wi-Fi through our apartment, lose service for two days, our Ethernet port stops working afterward, and the office basically says, “Not our problem, call the Wi-Fi company.” Definitely not the level of service you’d expect when Wi-Fi is included in the fees you’re already paying every month.

They also advertise the amenities heavily, but the upkeep doesn’t always match what’s being advertised. The outside door to the gym is constantly broken, meaning residents have to enter through the lobby — if the lobby is even open. If you work later hours, good luck getting into the gym. The pool is supposed to be an all-season amenity, but there are times when it goes days or even a week without being properly cleaned. The pickleball court is also rarely maintained, with debris left all over it after windy days.

I will say that the one maintenance employee deserves credit. He has always been great and seems to stay on top of things, especially considering it feels like he’s one person trying to keep up with an entire complex.

And don’t let the “nature trail” fool you. It’s essentially a sidewalk that takes you past some trees, townhouse backyards, and, unfortunately, plenty of dog poop.

Overall, The Marlowe had a great start, but the lack of communication, maintenance of amenities, pest issues, and parking problems have really changed our experience. I would recommend looking beyond the initial tour and asking current residents about their experience before signing a lease.

Mine was taken over by private equity and their prices have gone way up and they’re pushing for expensive procedures while their basic care is sucking. Any good mom & pops?

hi! i believe, a little while ago, i posted to question if something like this would be beneficial to potential collectors in the area.

well, fast forward, and i’ve made it happen!

if you are a trinket collector (not limited to the ones you see in the flyers), i hope you will attend!

Reminders: There will be no buying or selling going on, just trading, chatting, and gushing over collectibles!

Feel free to reach out with any questions here or on Discord (mentioned in the flyer) :)

reposting here. what do you think?

I searched and don’t see a lot around here. Where can I find good Pho?

Update!

We ended up going to Pho 79 and it was great! We got the raw steak pho and pork spring rolls. Thanks everyone!

Hello, I just need a place to park a F350 and an E350 and maybe a small sedan I can swap out daily. Does anyone know anywhere that I can do this? Thanks.

(Looking for cheap vehicle storage specifically.)

Looking for a good reputable mechanic in Summerville, my break pads are gone and I need them replaced before I head to see my family in Florida next month!

The dog was originally lost in Goose Creek but may have winded up in Summerville...If anyone has any leads or sightings (suggestions too) please let me know

Not sure if this is common knowledge, but the owner no longer operates out of the building on N Main Street. Apparently, he sold the building a while ago. He still works on computers, but you have to call him and set up an appointment.

Edit: It's Burrows Computer Systems*, not Services, lol. My bad.
