    After the day's activities, come home to comfortable living spaces, gather around the dining table, or unwind outside by the fire pit.

A Great Experience

We were in Beaufort to attend our son’s military funeral. Shane and Lisa were wonderful hosts, even leaving flowers and a sympathy card for us on arrival. House itself was immaculate and included everything we needed for our stay. Great location in Beaufort, also. Everything we needed was less than 15 minutes away.

A fantastic retreat!

At the last minute we decided to cancel out hotel and vrbo at the Trailside retreat, excellent location in Beaufort close to town and for us Parris Island as we were going to family day and graduation. The host was superb and offered great recommendations. The home was perfect with all the amenities that you would need at home away from home. Sad we did not have the luxury of a few extra days to exlpore the area. Highly recommend!

Family weekend getaway

This was a home away from home. Very clean and comfortable with enough room for my family. Conveniently located around restaurants and things to do. Our host was the most who was attentive from start to finish. I couldn't have been more pleased. Residential neighborhood was quiet and peaceful and the backyard was very enjoyable as my family gathered around the fire pit to catch up and remen

Great place for a long weekend trip

First time ever going to Beaufort and wasn’t sure what to expect. My husband and I brought my three teenage boys and we had a blast. The house is conveniently located to town (and town has all the necessities and plenty of yummy restaurants and places to shop). It was about a half hour to Hunting Beach State Park which was a great way to spend a morning, playing in the warm Atlantic waves. The Spanish moss trail is nearby and next time we are bringing bikes or scooters so we can see more of it, so beautiful! The house was nicely stocked with all we needed to cook some of our meals, do our laundry and even play games on a super rainy evening. Everything was clean, communication with Shane was quick and helpful, and we all enjoyed a good nights rest each night. Can’t wait to come back!

Filthy Place

The house was absolutely filthy which had nothing to do with the storm that rolled through a week earlier. The back wooden deck was rotted and my chair leg went through the deck as I was sitting in it. We stripped the beds and washed everything when we got there because absolutely EVERYTHING was filthy. Shane tried to state the condition of the deck was storm related but it was from years of neglect as every time it rained it pored from the roof onto the deck as there were no gutters on the back of the house. I lived in Beaufort for 17 years so I’m well aware of what storms there can do to properties but the absolute filth in this home had nothing to do with the storm, it hadn’t been cleaned in over a year given the amount of dust and dirt that had collected on everything. I will never rent from this company again
