Perfect Family getaway

We stayed two nights in the cottage and loved it! Very clean! A major plus was that we could bring our two dogs. Lovely neighborhood and close to everything. The marsh view from the kitchen window in the morning was most beautiful! We will come back!

Charming Beaufort Cottage

We had a wonderful stay in this lovely cottage. Michelle is an excellent hostess. The property is immaculate, beautifully furnished and well equipped, which was important to us because we love to buy and cook local foods. The backyard has a wonderful view and a calming vibe. Local attractions are a short distance away, and we had a great time exploring the area. We'd love to return someday!

Beaufort Cabin

This was a great home with all the amenities we needed. A question that we had was answered promptly. We usually rent places that are more secluded, so we were apprehensive about being in a neighborhood. However, we were pleasantly surprised at how quiet it was. We would definitely recommend this property. The homeowner and property manager were great to work with.

A nice Beaufort get away for a few days!

My wife and I decided to get away to Beaufort for a long weekend 4/11 - 4/14 and stayed at this property. It was a quaint little home and was as described on the listing. Communication before check in was fantastic and responses to questions were answered quickly. The property is a quick and easy drive to Bay St./Waterfront Park, as well. The one thing my wife and did not know on what we had planned to be a quiet weekend in Beaufort was that the Beaufort Air Show was taking place across the marsh at the Air Station the weekend we were in town. It was a pleasant surprise to be able to see the Blue Angel's and other F-16, F-18 soaring through the sky and breaking the sound barrier. The couple the owns the home beside this property were kind enough to invite my wife and I over to watch from the fairly new dock that extends out in to the marsh for a better view. I would definitely stay at this property again the next time my wife and I make a trip to Beaufort.

Manage Expectations

Property was clean but needs upkeep: Indoors the MBR fan has no speed control and wobbles significantly. Two TV's and one control that works. No instructions on how to operate the main TV and/or navigate the system. Outdoors the BBQ pit is minimal, and the firepit was full of moss and bush trimmings with 4 stumps. Neither area was inviting at all.
