Very peacefule

Great little property just adjacent to downtown. Came with Hunting Island passes which added an entire day of new things to do that we had not originally planned. Outdoor patio slab and firepit were great additions to sit by after a long day of showing my spouse around beaufort “i lived her and am trying to convice her to move back” and it worked.

Stay was awesome. Love the area and the rental was very nice and clean. Centrally located to town. Unfortunately my wife was not able to come along and enjoy the stay due to an emergency. We will be back.

Clean And Cozy

My husband and 2 sons were in town for my oldest son's graduation as a US Marine. We arrived much later than we anticipated but were able to get into the property with no problems. The coziness of the cottage was relaxing. Everything was perfect 👌 Definitely recommend for small families. But they have property for larger families and I imagine that place is definitely a good stay as well.

Better than 5 stars

Great cottage, very clean, great neighborhood and close to everything. Host had games, puzzles, dress up accessories for kids (we didn’t have any kids with us, but it’s a great idea). Three bicycles to ride, a pass to Hunting Island and other state parks. Beds were very comfortable. I love a ceiling fan to sleep under, it has that. I would love to stay there again. I would also give it higher than five stars if I could.

Wonderful little cottage

Wonderful cottage in beautiful Beaufort. The Hunting Island state park was a big plus, we used it a couple of days to relax at the beach after some non stop sightseeing the week before. Check-in was an absolute breeze and the entire place was clean and beautifully presented, beds were super comfortable and soft!

Such a lovely cottage

We absolutely loved the cottage and the peace and beauty it afforded to us. It felt like a little slice of heaven to us after coming from our home which is outside of Atlanta and after being stuck in traffic for a long time. The cottage was lovely, clean and had everything we needed. It was also situated in a great location. We really appreciated the thoughtful amenities such as the Hunting State Park pass which we used more than once. Our stay was not long enough but we will absolutely return and stay for a longer time.

Beaufort visit

Our second visit to Beaufort, we love this little town. Location was great, neighborhood quiet and rental was fine , had everything we needed . Pass to Hunting Island was wonderful. The only thing that was a slight disappointment was the beds are a bit too soft , firmer mattresses would make it perfect. But would stay again .

Great time in Beaufort

We stayed for almost 5 weeks, my wife and I are considering buying a home in the area. We loved Beaufort and the cottage was great. Everything you need for a short or long stay. Neighbors were very nice and it's very close to downtown Beaufort. Also 10 min to Port Royal which is a cute town with some nice restaurants and a great brewery.

Great stay once again.

We have stayed at the cottage in the past and it was once again great. We had everything we needed (to be fair...we didn't cook). Clean, comfortable bed and linens. Plenty of space for our things. Not too much "clutter decor", Still could probably pull a few things (hate fake plants). But, still a wonderful place to stay! Thanks again.
