- Vacation Retreat
  
  Charleston Named No. 2 Top American Destination
  
  With professional management, weekly housekeeping and landscaping services, gated parking and electronic security, luxury is a worry-free, turn-key lifestyle at Frederick Shaffer House. Adding peace of mind to your decision to enjoy a permanent vacation retreat in one of the truly unique places in America.
  
  Indeed, for the sixteenth consecutive year, readers of Condé Nast Traveler magazine honored Charleston as a Top 10 travel destination in the United States – No. 2, topped only by San Francisco. From the accompanying article:
  
  “The city’s gorgeous antebellum homes make it one of the most well-preserved and architecturally significant cities in the Deep South. Less than 20 minutes from downtown are two popular public beaches: Folly Beach and Isle of Palms. Sullivan’s Island, a barrier island north of Charleston harbor, has a three-mile-long beach and modern-day lighthouse. There’s also Fort Moultrie, a significant monument of coastal defense built in 1809.”
  
  “Charleston is home to The South Carolina Aquarium where over 10,000 types of low-country critters, including loggerhead turtles the size of a car, pythons, alligators, and sharks swim. Watch them through the three huge windows of the massive, two-story, 300,000-gallon tank. Two-thirds of the aquarium is built over the Cooper River, with decks for viewing dolphins and ships in Charleston Harbor.”
  
  “Of course, no visit to Charleston is complete without a tour of Fort Sumter, where Confederate soldiers fired the first shot of the Civil War on April 12, 1861.”
- Spoleto + Beyond
  
  Like owning a private box at the opera, ownership of Unit 5 of Frederick Shaffer House is a brilliant solution to sold-out hotels, dubious bed and breakfasts, and the cost and bother of making temporary arrangements in order to enjoy the permanent festival that is life in Charleston.
  
  Whether it’s the Food+Wine Festival in March, championship Family Circle Cup tennis in April, or the incomparable Spolteo in May … fledgling new events like Fashion Week and Chazzfest or traditional favorites like the Annual Fall Tour of Homes and Gardens and the International Arts and Antiques Show … making 214 Calhoun your address puts you “front row center” for a moveable feast of endless enjoyments.
  
  Spoleto Festival USA
  
  For 17 days and nights each spring, Spoleto Festival USA fills Charleston’s historic theaters, churches and outdoor spaces with over 120 performances by renowned artists as well as emerging performers in disciplines ranging from opera, theater, music theater, dance, and chamber, symphonic, choral, and jazz music, as well as the visual arts.
  
  Spoleto Festival USA has firmly established itself as one of the world’s major arts festivals, presenting more than 100 world premieres and 93 American premieres since its inception in 1977.
  
  One of the Festival’s tenets is to provide young performers the opportunity to work with veteran directors, designers and performers. World-renowned artists who performed early in their careers at Spoleto Festival USA include Renée Fleming, Emanuel Ax, Joshua Bell, Yo-Yo Ma, the Emerson String Quartet and Jean-Yves Thibaudet.
