About this property

YOUR SOCIAL DISTANCING AND INTIMATE GETAWAY!

Deep-cleaned and private. We use an electrostatic disinfecting sprayer in our cottage and clean each touch point and surface with disinfecting products. All laundry is washed in hot water using sensitive skin products.

Entirely fenced-in property.

Deep cleaned, private, blissful, zen-like, peaceful cottage with an outdoor fire pit and grill, located in the beautiful historic Beaufort Downtown area.

A queen bed in the master bedroom and a queen-sized sleeper couch in the common area, along with a kitchen full of all cooking amenities, oven, dishwasher, coffee maker, refrig/freezer and microwave and an on-premises washer/dryer make this the perfect long or short-term getaway.

We provide coffee bean grinder, a Cuisinart coffeemaker, French press and an espresso/cappuccino machine for your coffee drinking pleasure. Our kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, baking sheets, cups, plates, silverware, sharp carving and other knives, a full spice rack, bottles of infused olive oil and balsamic vinegar, a brita pitcher, and other sundry amenities. We provide seasoned firewood for the firepit and a gas grill, along with 4 bikes and locks.

Guests may rent a golf cart from local rental companies to use in the downtown, if so desired. Entry to the house is via a digital keypad. The code will be provided to guest the morning of check-in

15 minutes to Parris Island and Hunting Beach State Park. 2 bicycles await you to roam around town or ride the beautiful 11 mile Spanish Moss Trail. Walk to restaurants, boutiques, museums, houses of worship and the marina all while enjoying the gorgeous architecture and Spanish Moss hanging from the Live Oak trees that line the streets.

Sanctuary Cottage

The name fit the accommodations. It was a perfect location for our stay in Beaufort. The accommodations were very welcoming and just what we were looking for.Denise provided easy instructions for checking in and out. She was very prompt when we accidentally locked ourselves out of the cottage.It is a great place for a couple to spend a short getaway.

Perfect location

The bikes were great, gas grill, fire pit fantastic. Only negatives, broken chair on front porch dangerous, rug in front room dirty and should be replaced, bed could certainly be up graded. The location can’t be beat. Thank you

Cute little cottage!!

We loved the cottage and the location. Just a short walk to the town which has some great restaurants and shops. Only an hour away from Savannah and Edisto Beach. Denise, the host, was very nice. If we come that way again I would stay here!!

I can’t wait to visit again!!

Great location

Great location made for an easy walk to the waterfront. The absolute only thing I would suggest would be to trim back the growth on the fences. Otherwise, was excellent! Enjoyed our stay!

Cute little Cottage

We were in town to visit our daughter. The cottage was in great proximity to her house. We could walk to her apartment! The cottage itself was cute and clean, very well maintained. There were items available for use if you were going biking or to the beach. The host was available, if we needed. Highly recommend this place for your Beaufort visit.

Worst experience ever! Doubt I'll ever use VRBO again.

Nothing matched the online photos. Place was a filthy dump. Terrible lighting, had to walk in total darkness to get from car to cottage. Landlord refused to address any issue and when we asked she resorted to insults and threats. Most lights were broken or faulty (not safe), too dark to read. Way too many extension cords plugged into too few outlets. The landlord seemed to always be drinking and generally frightened us so we left early. Chats with VRBO were of no help!

Cozy

The cottage was small, but had everything we needed. The little courtyard was a great place to drink my coffee in the morning and the dogs enjoyed the freedom. Our hostess was very responsive and checked in to make sure we had everything or had any questions. We would stay there again.

A great little place

We enjoyed our stay. The hosts were very thoughtful in providing “extra” little things to help us be comfortable in the cottage, Some more light on the pathway leading in would be good. We used our cell phones each evening but it was hard when we carried things and led our dogs. It could use a little updating of the couch and a new paint job but the house was cozy and and in a great location to walk to the places of interest in Beaufort.

Secluded and Private

The cottage is an easy walk to downtown, so it was a great home base for me for First Friday and the Shrimp Festival. Thank you for the thoughtful little welcome basket. What a nice touch! Molly enjoyed sitting on the porch with me without being on a leash. She liked having the freedom to roam around and explore the little garden. A perfectly private little place for me and Molly.
