Very nice!

Beaufort is such a quaint area. The Riverwalk was a great location. We would stay again. We were a bit disappointed in the communication with the owner’s daughter. We reached out with questions two times. The first time took several attempts for an answer. The second question was never answered. We had looked forward to day exploring the town on bikes but they were gone the morning after we arrived for the remainder of our stay. Definitely not a deal changer though. Beautiful town!

Great Visit

Property and amenities were just as advertised. Other reviews are spot on concerning uncomfortable bedroom mattress and tight parking. We survived both and very much enjoyed our stay. Never really had to communicate with the owners, other than following instructions in the app.

Weekend in Beaufort

Nice, little one bedroom apartment did the trick. Great location, easy access to Old Town. Having access to the bicycles was a bonus so that we didn’t have to worry about parking.The mattress was comfortable after a long day of sightseeing and the Magnolia Cafe downstairs is amazing. The decor could use a little updating as it is looking a little tired, but other than that, this gem served all of our needs and more. We would stay here again if we visit at a later date.Thanks for the hospitality .

Perfect stay!

Our kids and grandkids were camping at Hunting Island State Park and this condo was perfect for my husband and I to visit with them. It was a short drive to the park and an enjoyable walk to downtown. The condo had all we needed for a comfortable stay and it was one of the cleanest units we have ever stayed at. Highly recommended, we would definitely stay again.

Long Weekend in Beaufort

Great location. Easy walking distance to downtown Beaufort. The apartment was well described and had comfortable features. Only downside was I did not know it was above a cigar store so in the evening it smelled a bit like smoke but wasn’t overwhelming. I would stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Melissa Lewis (owners daughter)

Host profile image
I am a long-term resident of Beaufort SC. I currently reside on St Helena Island, SC with my wife, Beverly, a former teacher. Our two daughters and two grandchildren also live here in Beautiful Beaufort by the Sea.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property in 1987 and renovated the entire building in 1997. The original building was built in the mid 1950's and has been upgraded several times. Suites A & B have always been long-term rentals and beginning in September 1, 2016 we upgraded and converted them to furnished short-term rentals.



What makes this property unique

We fell in love with this building because of the cool breezes, large magnolias and Spanish moss covered trees. The building is located in the historic district on Carteret St. at Bellamy Curve and has sweeping views of the Intercostal Waterway. There is reserved parking in front of the entry door but if by chance it is taken there is an abundance of available parking located behind the building..
