Amazing views!

We enjoyed the marsh views, fishing and crabbing off the dock and enjoying long days spent with family and friends. Communication with host was great and he accommodated our request for additional overnight stay. Love, loved this location!

Hideaway

A wonderful, private and serene home with the best views of the marsh I have ever seen. The boys stayed on the dock and fished all day (and most of the night) while the girls took advantage of the shopping in downtown Beaufort. The house is located a short drive from all the attractions and conveniences, but still seems far away from the hustle and bustle. We honestly can't wait to return!

I absolutely loved this property! The house was absolutely spotless! My favorite part was the view! I highly enjoyed waking up and drinking my coffee in the club chairs, watching the sunrise! The neighbors are quiet and nice. The dock was wonderful, and we spent a lot of time fishing! Would definitely book this place again!

Worth Every Penny!

From the driveway to the dock and everything in between, this place is excellent! So good we asked to stay one more day! The layout of the property was perfect for our boat and vehicles. The weather was fantastic - we can only thank God for that. The house was very inviting and spotless. Everything we needed was available. The beds were great, and none squeaked (our pet peeve). The water pressure was fantastic, so in every shower, you got a massage. The washer and dryer worked great! We were able to go home with all clean clothes. The dock area was perfect. Our boat fit nicely, and the marsh is just something you can't explain. Wonderful! The neighbors are very friendly. The owner, Eric, was very easy to work with. He answered our questions within a reasonable amount of time. He shared a lot of information about where the best fishing spots were and even provided maps. The check-in and check-out requirements were easy and quick. We've stayed in MANY VRBO homes, and this is our top favorite. The location, house, dock, everything was great. We stayed 8 nights and left wanting to stay more. If you decide to choose this place, you won't be disappointed.

Absolutely beautiful. If you bring a boat a little tight at very low tide but had no problem 1 hr before/after if you’re careful. The house is beautiful and the view is spectacular. Very clean and comfortable. Owner is very easy to reach and super nice. We look forward to booking at this house again.

gorgeous peaceful waterfront retreat

Owner super kind, welcoming and helpful. Home was just as described. Simply gorgeous with so much beautiful natural light due to the exterior walls being mostly glass!...interior tastefully simple with vaulted wood ceilings...looking out on the creek, marsh and woodland. Really a splendid experience. Hope to return soon!

Lucy Creek Lodge is an awesome place to stay for a vacation in Beaufort SC

Lucy Creek Lodge is a very well appointed, very comfortable house in an absolutely beautiful location. Eric was very helpful in answering the few questions we had and made sure our stay was to our liking. Unfortunately, we could not stay for our entire week, but that was due to tripical storm Idalia coming through. We wouldn't hesitate to stay at Lucy Creek Lodge next time our vacation plans take us to Beaufort.

WONDERFUL!

It was a last minute decision for us to stay at this property while on our way from Hilton Head Island. Luckily the days we wanted were available. BOY, WHAT A GREAT DECISION WE MADE! This property is incredible! Eric was great and provided us all the info we needed promptly and accurately. The property was secluded, quiet and private without being far away from everything the low country has to offer. The cabin has a rustic feel with wonderful modern/updated accommodations .I can't say enough, except we shall return!!! Thanks Eric!

Pictures don’t do it justice!

There is no way to explain just how peaceful and relaxing this property is. You drive through the traffic in town and then turn off into Fiddler’s point. The short drive through the woods is enough to separate you from the hustle and bustle of town. Then you walk into the beautiful home with a wall full of windows facing the beautiful marsh. We spent hours on the porch and inside the dining area watching all the beautiful marsh birds. We also had a wonderful time catching crab and fishing. The owner provides everything you need to enjoy your stay while there. I highly recommend this beautiful home! We hope to stay again in the future.

Wonderful escape!

Eric's property was just lovely! It was tucked back in a secluded area making you think you were a million miles away, but you could easily get to Beaufort, Port Royal, and it's a very doable drive to Bluffton and Hilton Head. We toured the whole area but loved being able to come back to the peaceful retreat at the end of a busy day. Deer met us in the yard and driveway and my husband (the early riser) met a raccoon on the dock. It was a great weekend getaway! Thanks so much!

Wonderful Time With Family - Including Fishing & Crabbing On The Dock

My family throughly enjoyed our stay at Little Lucy Lodge! It was clean and just as the photos depicted it. We spent most of our time out on the dock fishing and crabbing. Note: if you normally lake fish, ditch your bobbers and use weights instead. If you need bait there is a bait shop in a little blue house driving east out 21, past the Walmart, and just before you get to the bridge over Cowen Creek. We also picked up bait for crabbing at Publix. We found more success with a rope and a net for crabbing than using a crab trap. Casting lines we only caught 2 edible fish (not to say that more were not out in the creek). We also caught a couple each: gar, stingrays, and sharks. You'll also want to be aware of the times of low and high tide. There are plenty of places to relax inside and outside of the house too. The main room can get a bit warm in the daytime compared to the other rooms, but you do feel the cool when entering it from the outside. My family would definitely consider staying in this home again!

About the host

Hosted by Eric

We have called Charleston, SC home for about 15 years now and love it. Originally from Cherry Hill, New Jersey, my wife Stacy is a Yoga teacher working with diverse groups including children in low income schools, physically challenged individuals, public classes and private lessons to name a few. I was born and bred in Canada 30 miles west of Toronto. After finishing university I did my Masters in Australia before travelling and working abroad and in North America. I settled in Charleston where I work as a Realtor, investor, renovator, and manage my long term and vacation rentals. We're a family of 4 with our young daughter Satya and pup George. We love to come visit the Lodge ourselves whenever we can along. We've also got two mountain properties near Asheville that we get to as often as possible. The Lodge is a beautiful, calming spot and we're happy to share it with you.

Why they chose this property

My dad owned and lived in this property for 22 years. I've been visiting it and Beaufort for over 30 years when my dad first moved there and owned the Bay Street Inn downtown. In all those visits to Beaufort I found Charleston where I ended up settling down for the last 15 years or so. This spot my dad found all those years ago is simply amazing. When he decided to downsize and move into town I had to figure out a way to buy it. I love to sit on the porch any time of day listening to the various critters, watching sunrises and sunsets and just enjoying the calm.
