Luxury Vacation Home & Short-Term Rental Design
Thoughtfully designed homes that create unforgettable guest experiences, five-star stays, and stronger returns for owners.
Imagine the Possibilities
Picture your guests arriving after a long day of travel. As they step through the front door, they're immediately welcomed by a home that feels warm, inviting, and thoughtfully curated. Every space encourages them to slow down, settle in, and begin making memories together.
The kitchen naturally becomes the heart of the home. Morning coffee on the deck turns into a daily ritual. Cozy bedrooms offer the comfort of a boutique hotel, while beautifully designed gathering spaces invite conversation long after the sun goes down.
Those experiences become more than just a great weekend away—they become the reason guests leave glowing five-star reviews, recommend your property to friends and family, and return year after year.
Thoughtful design doesn't just create beautiful spaces. It creates memorable stays, stronger bookings, and a vacation home people genuinely can't wait to revisit.
Welcome to Lauren Carrington Design
Lauren Carrington Design is a boutique interior design studio specializing in luxury vacation homes and short-term rental properties throughout the Carolinas.
We believe exceptional vacation homes are designed with equal attention to beauty, functionality, and hospitality. Every project begins by understanding how guests will experience the home—from the moment they arrive until the moment they reluctantly pack their bags to leave.
Our work goes beyond selecting beautiful furnishings. We thoughtfully curate every detail, creating homes that photograph beautifully online, function effortlessly for guests, and deliver memorable experiences that encourage repeat bookings and outstanding reviews.
Whether you're preparing a newly purchased investment property, renovating an existing vacation home, or refreshing a well-loved rental, our goal is simple: to create spaces that feel unforgettable while helping you maximize the long-term value of your investment.
We Design for the Moments That Matter.
Every design decision begins with one simple question:
How do we want guests to feel?
Beautiful furnishings are only part of a memorable stay. The most successful vacation homes anticipate the needs of their guests before they ever ask.
From comfortable gathering spaces and thoughtfully equipped kitchens to layered lighting, elevated bedding, and carefully selected amenities, every detail contributes to an experience that feels welcoming, effortless, and genuinely cared for.
Because the homes guests remember most aren't simply well decorated — they're intentionally designed around the people who will stay there.
