Coastal Golf Cart Getaway in Pleasure Bluff

10/10 Excellent
"This little cottage was absolutely precious and exactly the kind of peaceful retreat I needed. Debbie was a wonderful host and made the space feel incredibly cozy, welcoming, and cared for. There are so many thoughtful touches throughout the property that it quickly felt less like a rental and more like a little home away from home.I wasn’t in the area for a typical vacation—I was there dealing with some family obligations and had some very long, demanding days. Coming back here each evening was such a welcome respite. The screened porch, the quiet surroundings, and the comfortable, homey atmosphere gave me a place to decompress and breathe at the end of the day.I’m so grateful I found this place and will absolutely stay here again. It’s a lovely little retreat in Shellman Bluff, and I can easily imagine coming back when I actually have time to enjoy it as a vacation!"

"Great place- had everything we needed! We regret not ordering a local meal and tour & will add that next time. Some information in listing was slightly outdated (gas grill in picture was no longer there, but we just used charcoal).
