Super cute cottage in prime location close to everything … including Marine Recruit Depot. Staying here made our visit to Port Royal very enjoyable. The property manager helped us with an issue we had, promptly - and it was very appreciated.
This was the most perfect place to stay for my son's Marine Corps Graduation. It was only 7 minutes away from the base. Would love to stay here again for vacation!
Enjoyed our stay. Property management firm was great to communicate with. House had what we needed for a few days in the area. Enjoyed having the Hunting Island pass, used it multiple days.
It was a beautiful little cottage, comfortable, clean and very enjoyable. Thank you for a wonderful place to stay for my grandsons graduation from boot camp.
We enjoyed our stay & very much appreciated the great sign that was left regarding our Marine graduate. The property was exactly as advertised and in a lovely area. It was convenient to many shops, restaurants & Parris Island. The check-in process was simple & smooth. We definitely recommend a stay at this property.
We needed a cozy place, close to Parris Island as our 3rd son was graduating. The cottage was perfect, cozy and peaceful. Only thing I wish, was we had more time to spend there and be able to enjoy the back yard and fire pit.
We stayed here for my son’s boot camp graduation. First thing we noticed was the sign in the yard that said just visiting to pick up our new marine. We loved this! The house was clean and so lovely inside and out. We took the bikes out for a ride and went a block over to eat ice cream. We would love to come back again just to visit. Check in was easy and they even let us come in a little early.
My mother and I traveled from Luray Virginia to watch my future son-in-law graduate marine bootcamp this week. Your home was beautiful and very inviting. We loved the set up outside, especially the screened in porch with the lights.
We had the best time! The place was beautiful and just perfect. We walked to Shellring Ale Works (local brewery) and Fishcamp on 11th (which is delicious btw). Other places to enjoy within walking distance as well. Great location. Enjoyed the firepit! We will be back! Thanks again for an amazing weekend!
Stayed here with my wife and 6 year old and we all enjoyed the house and location. She was able to play in the schools park a couple nights with local kids. We walked to get ice cream and donuts / breakfast most mornings. And were also able to walk to a boardwalk to see gators and bird rookery. Highly recommend!
We also used the state park pass provided to visit hunting island. Kid was able to find sand dollars and see some critters.
Talked to the elderly lady next door - she was friendly and awesome and has lots of stories.
Overall a really good stay!
We, a family of four, had a really great stay in Port Royal.
A superb house with all amenities, clean and in very good condition. We even had plenty of Christmas decorations provided.
The sorrounding area is also great with plenty of mossy oaks and quiet streets and just a few minutes to walk to nice restaurants, nature and sunset views.
We sincerely recommend this house to anyone planning a stay in Port Royal.
We loved this house. Everything was so cute and set up with anything you need for your stay. The house was decorated for the season and the weather was perfect to enjoy the screened in porch. We can't wait to come back.
