Bungalow in the Historic District-walking distance to downtown & the waterfront!


Enjoy a peaceful stay at our cozy 2-bedroom bungalow in the Historic District of Beaufort. Nestled in the heart of this quaint city, our property offers a brilliant retreat for guests seeking relaxation and tranquility and the perfect space to unwind after a day of exploring. Baby Charles puts you steps from the gorgeous antebellum mansions, Waterfront Park, Spanish Moss biking/walking trail, Civil War Cemetery, Downtown Marina, delightful shops, galleries and restaurants. It is a short drive to: Parris Island (10 min.), Marine Corps Air Station (10 min.), Hunting Island State Park & Lighthouse (30 min.), Hilton Head Island (45 min.), Savannah (60 min), and Charleston (80 min).

Baby Charles is a 1 story, 2 bedroom,1 bathroom home that sleeps 4 comfortably. Each bedroom has very comfortable queen beds with high thread count fine linens, a dresser and plenty of closet space. The well appointed bathroom has a step in shower with dual shower heads, each with their own control. The shower doors are frameless tempered glass with chrome fittings. In keeping with the era, the walls are white subway tile and the floor is black and white mosaics.

The living area has a comfortable sofa, two swivel club chairs, a smart TV with ROKU and a DVD player to watch the movies made right here in Beaufort - we provide them! In the dining room, the gracious dining room table seats six and can accommodate 8 guests for meals and get togethers. The fully equipped kitchen is stocked with everything necessary to make and enjoy meals at home.

There is a convenient small screened in porch for beach chairs and cooler, and a place to hang your beach towels after a day at Hunting Island Beach. We provide a parking pass for the state park for your convenience.

The Lowcountry is blessed with beautiful weather and there are multiple areas to enjoy it at Baby Charles. Relax on the front porch in an Adirondack chair with a drink and good book or enjoy the private brick paved courtyard that offers plenty of shade with a dining table and chairs, grill and additional seating.

Pets are allowed with prior approval and a non-refundable security deposit. Please discuss with us the kind and size of the pet you wish to bring so that we can determine it's appropriateness.

*The courtyard is fenced, but PLEASE take responsibility for your pet, should it be approved. We cannot be responsible if you leave a gate or a door open and a pet escapes.*

There is a binder in the house that provides helpful information about area attractions, maps, restaurants and all things Beaufort! Feel free to call us with any questions or recommendations!

This home is non-smoking inside and out. No exceptions. This home is furnished with clean chemical free soaps, lotions, shampoo and cleaning products for your use.

spring get-away

We had a wonderful stay at this property. It had everything one need for an outstanding rental. The location is perfect. Fortunately the weather was sunny every day. My husband and I have visited Beaufort many times and this was my favorite house so far. Hope to rent it again.

Cozy intown home

Exactly what we wanted. Great location to explore historic Beaufort. Warm and cozy with all the amenities you could want. Clean bathroom, comfy bed, nice living room and well appointed kitchen. Cute little backyard though it was a tad too cool to enjoy this visit. Added plus was the pass to visit Hunting Island State Park for a day at the beach. Easy walk to Bay Street to enjoy the shops and restaurants. We will be back.

Charmingly appointed and great location

This home is very tastefully appointed. The lights and music when we arrived was such a nice touch. We felt like we’d just come home! The location is perfect. Close in but not in the middle of the bustle of Bay Street. Such a lovely area. We were very glad we came.

Perfect Southern Bungalow

This is the perfect cottage for a couple's romantic getaway. After a long, hard drive, we arrived to find the lights on to welcome us and soft music playing. The decor is upscale and very southern, and both the beds and furniture were very comfortable. The location is perfect and we felt very safe. I wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Cozy house close to everything and great management

This house exceeded our expectations. The lights were turned on inside, and music welcomed us. There be is a fenced yard for dogs. There are thoughtful, touches like a magnified, make up mirror and two kinds of wash cloths, one for face, one for below the face. The kitchen is well equipped. The beds are incredibly comfortable. There is a four outlet charger for your devices. The kitchen is well stocked. And it has cute pottery. There is good TV and cable options. The air conditioning is good. There is an excellent shower with two heads. It is easy to step in and out of. We were definitely stay here again. The manager also is a Dogsitter in case you need that.

Great getaway.

The cottage was great and probably one of the cleanest and comfortable lodging we have booked through VRBO. The location was great for walking down to the riverwalk. We experienced some nice restaurants and enjoyed visiting Hunting Island. We hope to return in the future. Melissa is a super host; thank you for everything.

Great spot!

We had a great time in Beaufort. The VRBO was very clean and cozier than I expected! The beds are comfy and the kitchen has all you could need. Highly suggest the Lowcountry Produce Market for brunch and Old Bull Tavern for dinner. Great place to stay and within walking distance to the riverfront.

From the moment we arrived to the minute we left, everything was perfect. The house was very clean, decorated nicely, comfy beds, great location to downtown and a well equipped kitchen. But who needs a kitchen when you are so close to so many great restaurants. All in all, a perfect place for the two of us!

Cute Cozy Cottage

We were in town for a Marine retirement and wanted something that was walking distance to Beaufort. This was perfect! The owner thoughtfully put together a notebook with dining and activity suggestions. There was also a pass included for Hunting Island, which is my favorite beach for relaxing and picture taking. The house was neat and clean. So many extra details made it an excellent stay. There was plenty of paper and cleaning products and lots of spices to use. The dishes, towels and linens were very nice. Communication with the property manager was great, rapid responses and helpful information. This is definitely one I will keep on my list!
