Great neighborhood!

This location is wonderful. Very peaceful neighborhood for sitting out on the front porch and relaxing after a day on the Spanish Moss bicycle trail. There are many restaurants near by, including a very good coffee shop, Corner Perk.

A Mixed Bag

The property was clean. Beds were comfy. Neighborhood was quiet at night. We enjoyed the location - walking distance to virtually everything. However there were a few interior quirks. Blinds were only partially operational due to unattached rods and screen on the back door was detached, allowing bugs and the neighbor dogs to sometimes enter. We reported this to Maddie. Exterior had issues that were - for us - disappointing. Both upper and lower porches needed a good cleaning with grime on the window sills and floors, and used teabags from the previous (?) renters on the upper deck floor. Porch swing was dangerously close to detaching and side table was coming apart. My husband repaired both after we reported this to Maddie. There is no porch fan so bugs were an issue. Sadly the nice lady next door is hard of hearing so her television blared for most of the day. Her dog barked at everyone who passed - making it difficult to enjoy reading on the porch. Despite all this, we were happy to ride our bikes and walk to most everything.

Perfect Location

If you want to fully enjoy the town of Port Royal, this house must be on your list. It is within walking distance of shopping, dining (highly recommended Madison’s and Fishcamp on 11th) and just a short trip (walkable as well) to Sands Beach. The house is well furnished and the neighborhood is quiet. We can’t wait to go back! Owners were very responsive to my questions and our stay was perfect.

Perfect for Marine Corp boot camp graduation

The top porch and downstairs porch swing were lovely. Pretty string lights out back. Inviting living room with a nice white sectional couch. Cozy kitchen and dining area. It’s not an extremely fancy place, but very quaint and comfortable. Perfect for our short visit to Parris Island for our new Marine’s graduation. A new coat of paint throughout would really help the aesthetic, but overall was clean, cute, and comfortable. Walking distance to Fishcamp restaurant and Maynard’s Ice Cream shop.

USMC Graduation

Everything was amazing. Kitchen stocked well and the house was wonderful. Master bed was incredibly comfy. If you upgraded your sheets to a higher quality I’d never want to leave. ;) It was incredibly lovely. I didn’t give a rating for the manager communication because I never spoke to anyone. However I would love it if someone could call me. My phone was listed on my check in profile.

You Get What You Pay For

It's a quaint setting. We had to keep telling ourselves, "You get what you pay for." For what we paid, we were satisfied but you should expect a tired house. One sink didn't drain properly, filthy floorboards, cockroach enjoying a meal, floral bedspreads that remind you of the 90s, walls that all need to be painted, and yes, dirty carpets in the bedrooms and upstairs hallway. Positives - fun front porch, easy access, well stocked kitchen, cozy.

About the host

Hosted by Maddie Beck

Host profile image
Hello! I'm your host, Maddie, and I'm thrilled to welcome you to beautiful Beaufort, South Carolina! I'm a local, so I can give you the inside scoop on all the best spots to visit.

I absolutely love living here, especially during the summer. There's nothing quite like a relaxing boat ride on the water, or the beach, soaking up the sun and enjoying the stunning scenery. When I'm not out exploring, or shopping downtown, you can usually find me spending time with my two dogs, that I call children, Moose and Bean, or enjoying some quality time with my husband. I also love curling up with a good book and a refreshing iced coffee.

As your host, I'm passionate about providing true Southern hospitality and giving you a taste of what makes Beaufort so special. I'm excited to share my love of this town with you and help you create unforgettable memories during your stay. So, sit back, relax, and let me take care of the rest!
