Why the Owner Chose Beaufort
Now, that our children have families of their own....We decided to open our home to other families visiting Beaufort and Parris Island.
The Unique Benefits at this House
The home is close to the city limits yet it sits back from the road to give you plenty of privacy for large family gatherings inside and out.
Marines and their families receive 10% off with valid Military ID. They have ice cream cakes and pies with the Marine Corp's symbol for that special Graduation party. The Ice Cream is FANTASTIC.
Owner's Map of Beaufort
My husband and I want to invite you to stay in our family home while you visit Beautiful Beaufort by the Sea. My late father (a Master Gunnery Sgt)purchased this home after he retired from the Marine Corp in 1977. It sits at the end of a penisula of land along a major tidal creek off the Port Royal Sound near Parris Island. It is located within 5 to 10 miles of everything Historic Beaufort has to offer. Please take time to read the comments written by other guests in our log book. Many have commented that the house (and location) is better than they thought it is was going to be....we hope you select our home to be your home and add to all the love and laughter this home holds within its walls.

We had a wonderful 4 days at this great place. Our family of 7 plus our son's three best friend's and another former Marine all fit into this great place. We enjoyed the hot tub, horse shoes, grill and oyster roaster. We were so comfortable, Chuck and Brenda had everything we needed for our 8 month old. They had all the info to help us enjoy our family day and graduation. The basket on the table was labeled for your picnic at Elliott's beach. I grabbed it as and after thought and it had everything I didn't think of including a tablecloth. This is the place for Marine families. I just hope its still for rent when my next two son's graduate Parris Island. -- Frank and Rhonda

This is the perfect location to stay for graduation from Parris Island! The house and grounds are amazing! The house was very clean and has everything you'll need, just buy your own food and you're ready for a wonderful stay! The owner even set up a bon fire for us ~ we weren't expecting that! This is a very nice home, very spacious, and comfortable.The price was much more reasonable than staying in several hotel rooms. The owners are very nice and extremely accommodating. I think they went above and beyond what anyone would expect. Even as far as hanging a Marine flag on the flag pole in honor of my son's graduation. And to top that off, the flag was actually a gift to my son! If we ever plan a stay in that area again, we will definitely stay there. I highly recommend it!

I searched endlessly for the perfect rental home to bring my new Marine to after graduation on 12/2/11. I'm pleased to say this was it! Chuck definitely has experience with recruit families and makes you feel at ease and is very informative to all the activities. There was 7 of us and we had plenty of room. The 1st floor bedroom was ideal for my inlaws as they don't get around so easy. The study was great for my other kids who also had to study for finals. It was a very warm, cozy home and we fit right in as it was our own.The yard was beautiful, quiet, and relaxing. It reminded me of the home I grew up in. EVERYONE of us agreed it was PERFECT! Not so easy when there are 7 of you. There was a binder on the kitchen table that had all kinds of info to prepare us for the 2 days of grad.and places to eat. Chuck also was very helpful and even had a wheelchair we could borrow which took out the stress of having to get 1 on PI. Location was great too! Easy to get to PI, Dtwn Beaufort and the beautiful Hunting Island State Park. I'm so glad we stayed 1 extra day after graduation and would highly recommend that.Even though my son was anxious to get home and see all his buddies, he even said what a great idea it was to stay 1 extra day and just be with family. He told us story after story and enjoyed relaxing here. He especially made use of the hot tub! Thanks again Chuck for your hospitality, sending us our new Marine mug we left and gifting my son his 1st Marine flag that he proudly displays in his room. What a nice touch:)

Chuck, Would like to thank you from the tbottom of our hearts for making the last 4 days a wonderful and enjoyable experience. We were truly blessed to be able to stay in your home when our son graduated from Parris Island on November 23rd, 2011. We could not have asked for better accomodations and southern hospitality. 8 of us stayed in the house but it could have easily slept 12-13 comfortably. Thank you Again for a wonderful time. Hope to get back down that way again some day!

Chuck & Brenda are great people. They go above and beyond! The house feels like you are staying with family. I highly recommend staying at their house. They provide helpful info for the recruits family to ensure you get most out of your visit. This is surely a hidden jewel in Beaufort! Oorah

This home of Brenda & Chuck's is fantastic! We hosted a large rehearsal dinner on the beautiful grounds and we could not have asked for anything more. The grounds are beautiful and the house is great. Brenda was a great help during our dinner party. The boys had plenty of room for the horseshoe game and the kids had plenty of room to run and play. The house is all you could ask for and more! WE had 9 people for the week and had plenty of linens and space. The kitchen is fully stocked with the important things (coffee maker, ice maker, condiments, and a high chair for our granddaughter etc) It really made our trip enjoyable to have the large yard to spread out in. The view in the AM with your coffee in hand while sitting on the swings was breath taking. Truly a great place for a family to stay. Centrally located is also a plus Thanks a million Brenda and Chuck!

Highly recommend this home!! Chuck and Brenda were awesome; to say the least. We had our daughter’s wedding here, very beautiful setting for the event. Our daughter had mentioned to Chuck about wanting an arch for the ceremony, Chuck built one for her! Thank you SO much for doing that! During our stay we spent many hours outside enjoying the tidal views, playing horseshoes, swimming, enjoying the hot tub. Chuck was always available to us if we needed anything. This home is just as it is described. Kitchen was well stocked! Plentiful linens! Very clean home!! For a memorable stay in Beaufort rent this property…you WILL NOT be disappointed! Again, Thank you Chuck and Brenda!!

What an amazing week we just spent at the lovely Parris Island Spa and Health Club! At least that's what we should call Chuck's place:) We stayed Mon-Sat for my Marine's graduation (5/13/11, 3rd BN, India Co, PLT 3037 ooh rah!) and what a wonderful time we had. Relaxing, peaceful, quiet, comfortable....all great words to describe the beautiful home that Chuck and Brenda offer to their guests. We couldn't have asked for more. The furnishings and amenities made us feel right at home--as did Chuck's helpful tips for how/what to do for Family Day and Graduation. Call and ask questions, get ideas about how to spend your time on PI. Highly recommend a picnic at Elliott Beach for Family Day. Could have packed our own, but instead got Big Joe's BBQ to deliver a meal for 12 and fit for a king! Also had them prepare Low Country Boil for Thursday night...delicious!!! Friday after graduation, all 18 of us went back to "the house" for a great celebration complete with "game day" treats like wings, ribs, dips, etc. Have to say the marshland views from the house and yard are breathtaking. Swings, tables/chairs/umbrellas, rockers...all nice touches that make sitting outside and visiting with family/friends so enjoyable. Throw in the hot tub, ice machine, coolers, wifi and so many other nice touches...it was a vacation to remember. Will definitely check Chuck's calendar and try to get back over for a time of R & R real soon. Thanks, again, Chuck for the gracious hospitality and all the info/input that made our PI week one to remember. Your respect for the Corps and your servant's heart meant so much. Your VRBO + God's blessings = one very special week. You're the best!

We spent the month of January this year and really enjoyed the property. It is secluded and quiet but close to everything. You don't even know you are in the city. We enjoyed the tidal flats and birds that came there and spent most of our time in the South Carolina room because it was so bright. The area has so much to offer to see you almost need a month to enjoy it. We just learned so much history and our little dog enjoyed seeing the two little dogs on the property. Ask Chuck about places to eat because we found some bad places but the good one's were Bricks on Boundry, 11th street Grill and Barbara Jeans. You cannot go wrong with any of those. Finally at the end of the day, the King bed is just the greatest... I looked forward to going to bed. In case I didn't say it, we had a good time.
Owner response:We really enjoyed having Al and his lovely wife Nina and and their little daughter "Lucy" stay in our home and we look forward to having them stay with us again in the future. We appreciate the thoughtful comments they made of our home and hope they take advantage of our %15 discount we offer our returning guest. VRBO is lucky to have repeat guest such as these who patronize the various properties. Thank you again Al, Nina, and little "Lucy" for staying with us.
