The Evan Cottage was built in 2013 and is the perfect cozy spot for your Daufuskie adventure! This 1 bedroom/1 full bath bungalow is fully furnished with modern amenities. Luxury vinyl plank floors were installed throughout the cottage in Spring 2018. Central heating and air conditioning were added in Fall 2018! A front porch with bistro set for enjoying a morning coffee and fire pit for relaxing at night complete this adorable home. Enjoy a romantic couples weekend or an affordable vacation with your young family comfortably in our home.
Centrally located in the heart of the Historic District, the cottage is only a short walk to the Historic First Union African Baptist Church and Mary Fields School made famous by the book, "The Water is Wide" and movie "Conrack." The beach is 2 miles away via a peaceful 10 minute golf cart ride. Other nearby attractions include Freeport Marina, The General Store, Daufuskie Crab Company, Lucy Bells Cafe, The Rum Distillery, the Daufuskie Community Farm, Wine and Woodworks, The Iron Fish, and more! Evan Cottage is centrally located to all Daufuskie Island has to offer!
