  • Visiting Toogoodoo Bluff is like stepping back in time. All your big city stresses melt away as you look thru the long center hall to the expansive front porch overlooking the beautiful Toogoodoo River. Everything has been updated just enough to give you the modern conveniences you are used to but left decorated from another simplier time. Great place for family get togethers or couples who want to escape to a quieter place. We can't wait to get back down to Toogoodoo to kayak, fish, go crabbing, prepare special meals or just sit on the porch or lay in the hammock and enjoy the peace and quiet. I highly recommend a visit to Toogoodoo. You will start planning your return before you ever leave.

  • I have had the pleasure of staying at this site twice now, and I think it is one of the best kept secrets that SC continues to hide. The privacy of the unit along with the tasteful furnishings and access to the water make this a place we hated to leave. The owners were very user friendly, and went out of their way to make sure our stay at Toogoodoo was what we expected. They even had firewood ready for the fireplaces in case the air turned chillly. We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to the next time we are in SC so we can stay here again. Feel free to give me a call if I can answer any questions regarding our stay. Bob Barden

  • This is one of the prettiest places on the planet. From the time you enter the gated and fenced yard to the time you sit on the dock, you will be overwhelmed with beauty and stillness. If you listen long enough you can hear the cows grazing and mooing across the creek and marsh....it's a very nice time away from it all. Make a short trip to a great seafood market around the corner on the way to Edisto if you need more than you can catch off of the dock.

  • My time at Toogoodoo was such an amazing experience. Waking up to the beautiful sunrises and hearing the birds really starts your day off on the right foot! The toogoodoo river was ideal for many hours of kayaking and really provided a peaceful environment. I found myself the most relaxed I have been in years. Cooking dinner was a breeze in the kitchen, and I loved being able to have a fire burning in the fireplace while I was cooking. It gave everything a new flavor! I would suggest this place to anyone. There is no doubt in my mind you will agree that you have never stayed anywhere this tranquil, this relaxing, or this amazing in your life. Without a doubt, Toogoodoo is the perfect place to reunite your family and reconnect with your kids! We sure did!
