Private Vacation Photoshoot with Photographer in Kiawah Island
"I would stay here again and again. I love the ambiance and charm of the historic home which still shines through along side the luxurious updates in the beautiful bathroom, soft rugs, comfy bed. They have thought of everything and provided a beautiful space to enjoy it in. Games, toiletries, coffee, water, an honor wine bar upstairs. I cannot wait to go back. Full review with video coming to my tiktok @joykapp later today.
I also recommend Old Bull for dinner if you go into town! Friendly...
"Wish we had more time to spend in the Beaufort area. A very lovely Inn & charming town to visit. The staff is very welcoming . Our room was perfect for an overnight....would like one of the larger rooms if we were to stay longer. Breakfast in the morning was delicious.... Fresh, warm Southern biscuits as well as donuts were a hit With a location of the Inn in the historic district, it makes strolling around the town and the waterfront very easy. Look forward to our next visit!"
