Henry Cobia, an early owner of the property, also owned slaves. During the 1830s, a male and female slave lived in a room on the third floor of the house along with their nine-year-old son. In 1843, due to financial difficulty, Cobia was forced to sell several of his slaves, which included the boy’s parents. The next day, the little boy walked down to a dock on Charleston Bay and asked a man where his parents were taken. He was told that they had been transported to a ship that was currently docked in the middle of Charleston Harbor. Motivated by the hope that he might be reunited with his parents, the boy stole a rowboat and rowed in the direction of his parents’ ship. All at once, the little boat capsized, and the boy drowned.Guests have reported seeing the ghost of a little boy playing around the halls, then disappearing from sight. Former employees affectionately named him, George. Some may view this as unsettling and others may view it as alluring, but George reportedly just engages in harmless mischief that includes opening doors, rocking chairs and turning lights on and off. Most of the disturbances take the form of mattress shaking or the radio turns on in the middle of the night.George’s King Suite occupies the top floor of The Nicholas overlooking Wentworth Street. This spacious suite features a king-sized bed and private reading nook. The newly renovated bathroom features a large walk-in shower and posh luxury water fixtures and vanity. The room has all of the hotel’s original charm and character with chic, modern upgrades and amenities that provide both function and elegance.Please note, there is no elevator in the hotel.*Unlock Hotel Amenities with your home*All guests, age 25 and up, staying at this property with Coastal Vacation Properties have been granted access to The Wonderer Charleston.This 2-acre private membership club nestled in downtown Charleston is a modern oasis offering resort-style amenities and a Bali-Tulum-inspired atmosphere unparalleled on the Charleston peninsula.The Wonderer includes a swimming pool, onsite eateries for breakfast, lunch, dinner, trendy cocktails, and of course poolside cabanas!
