Ocean side with large screened porch 15'x21'; dining for 10 and relaxing
Location: Daufuskie Island Resort, Daufuskie Island, Off Island Areas, Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, USA (5 Hrs drive South from Atlanta; 45 Min. boat - Hilton Head)
Accommodations: Cottage, 2 Bedrooms, 2 Baths (Sleeps 8)
Ah....Daufuskie! Take the county ferry from BroadCreek Marina on Hilton Head and feel the stress of the week peel away with the breezes and the smell of the ocean.
Take the trolley from the Ferry Landing to Melrose Plantation, winding thru the centuries old Live Oaks, pass the Equestrian Center and between the lush golf course greens on to your cottage.
Unlock the door to be welcomed by a magnificent view of the Atlantic. No need to flip coins to see who gets the bigger room, both are the same size with two Queens beds each and private baths.
The Cherry Cabinets in the open kitchen have all the necessary pots, pans, plates, glasses and utensils, with plenty of room for your groceries. It doesn't matter that the appliances are stainless and the counters are granite, it just helps you entertain more graciously.
The hardest thing to do on Daufuskie is to decide between walking the quiet, clean beach, reading a book in the hammocks, searching for the elusive alligator in the ponds, the seasonal Sea Turtle eggs or historic relics from the Civil War. Then again a horseback ride, game of tennis, or a round at one of the world famous golf courses might satisfy. Or you could visit the Silver Dew Pottery or the Art Gallery off the plantation. Or just see what the island offers your senses.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2004
Our family lives in Atlanta, Georgia. We love to travel the world but always yearn to get to our favorite place, Daufuskie Island.
Why the Owner Chose Daufuskie Island Resort
Daufuskie intrigued our business and vacation interests. We knew that owning a place where our family could go on a weekend that didn't stress us out with traffic jams, long restaurant lines, and t-shirt shops one after the other AND be on the Atlantic Ocean within 5 hours was a good investment in family time and real estate.
The Unique Benefits of this Cottage
The old oak and pine trees line the paved and dirt roads, inviting exploration. The Atlantic Ocean waves pound the beach, while the shrimp boats pass with heavy nets, all while I sit on my porch steps. Our teenage daughters beg to show thier school friends the treasures of the island, driftwood strewn beaches and loungetime at the pool. In warmer weather, we rent kayaks to paddle up the waterways around Daufuskie to find Indian relics from ancient settlements and spot cruising dolphins close enough to see thier eyes. At night, we might sip wine with new found friends, or walk the beach looking at the amazing aray of stars we can't see in the city.
