Home Away From Home! Southern hospitality, peace and quiet, plus nearby activities await you at this charming, roomy home in the historic town of Port Royal. We're less than a simple 2 minute drive from Parris Island entrance, only 5 minutes from historic Beaufort with its many shops, galleries and restaurants, 35 minutes Hunting Island's 5,000 acre State Park with its long white beaches, public swimming beach, hiking and bird watching, and also minutes from the many islands that offer endless beautiful scenery, great galleries, antiquing, restaurants and gorgeous weather. History buffs, nature lovers and those who treasure the peace and quiet of a traditional walking community will enjoy staying with us in Port Royal's friendly, small neighborhood atmosphere.
We would love to share our home with you. We've recently renovated this charming, roomy Port Royal home in the heart of Port Royal. All rooms are cheerfully decorated for comfort and relaxation to help make you feel at home. Come stay with us and enjoy the quiet and charm of Port Royal that we fell in love with. Friendly neighbors and town folk, church bells that ring at noon, birds that sing to bring in the new day, and peace and quiet greets you every day. A real at-home place to get re-acquainted with your graduating marine or to vacation.
Take a short walk or safely bicycle to everything you need to relax and un-wind in a small friendly neighborhood atmosphere. Enjoy the local restaurants (Dockside, Thai, Bateaux, McPherson's Famous Barbeque, Pizza, or Moondoggies); our favorite coffee shop, walking trails, the water front that offers boat launch ramps, docks, amazing fishing, community Sands Beach, and a boardwalk with a look-out tower where you can watch the dolphins play in the water and the many varieties of birds fly over head. Enjoy the local activities or just relax on the large screened-in porch which overlooks the front garden. Your children can safely play in the large 1/2 acre rear yard.
