Deer Lake Hotels, Fripp Island

"Spacious rooms, great location, clean, good breakfast with many options."

"Overall good experience. Phone in the room did not work. I only charged one drink to my room however about $100 worth of mysterious "F&B" charges showed up on my final bill. Restaurant food was good and staff was prompt/friendly/professional. I would stay there again."

"What used to feel like a relaxing, family-friendly destination now feels more like a crowded convention center. From the moment we arrived, it felt like guests were more of a nuisance than welcomed visitors. The atmosphere was chaotic, staff seemed overwhelmed, and there was very little of the warm, accommodating experience we remembered from previous stays. One of the biggest frustrations was parking. Even valet parking — which we paid extra for expecting convenience — became a constant fight. It felt like regular guests were completely overlooked in favor of the large convention groups and bigger companies coming in. Multiple times we struggled just to access parking while conference attendees seemed to take priority for everything. What made the experience even more frustrating was the constant introduction of random “new rules” throughout our stay. Policies seemed to change daily with little communication or consistency, making it difficult to relax or enjoy ourselves. It honestly felt like we were walking on eggshells the entire time, worried we were unknowingly breaking some new restriction. The saddest part was that our kids genuinely felt unwelcome there. What used to feel like a place families could comfortably enjoy together now felt cold and inconvenient toward children and family guests. Instead of feeling relaxed and excited, our family constantly felt like we were in the way. For the price and reputation, the experience was incredibly disappointing. "

"Good and safe location, the room is outdated, Bed is not comfortable and the phone chargers on both lamps by the bed are not working. "

"requested late check out and was allowed to stay til noon. thank you."

"Would like to stay in one other these hotels without issue. Elevator broken. Breakfast was not acceptable no protein, no bananas or melon and sugar filled yogurt. Eggs were hard boiled. Really! "

"The Tru property in Beaufort has large clean rooms, large bathrooms and an inviting exterior. This is my 2nd time staying here and I will be back."

"There are shops nearby The parking lot is OK."

"Staff was excellent. Rooms were immaculate with well thought out amenties. Breakfast was the best “corporate hotel included” breakfast I have ever had."
