About this property

The Spanish Moss Cottage is newly renovated, stylishly appointed, and extremely comfortable- a little gem of a house with a huge amount of beautifully landscaped outdoor space. We are Premier Hosts with years of VRBO experience who have just added this second property onto the platform. Having stayed in many VRBO's for work, we've figured out what guests really value, and our goal is to give you a concierge style-stay, with premium amenities and conveniences.
Relax on the screened-in back porch and enjoy the beauty of the Lowcountry in our spacious fenced-in yard that backs directly onto the Spanish Moss Trail, a rails-to-trail greenway that is one the recreational centerpieces for Beaufort County. With a current 20-mile round trip experience for residents and visitors, the Trail offers a 12-foot-wide paved path dedicated to pedestrians and bicyclists. Walk through our back gate and you’re on the trail-we supply 2 bicycles, bike locks and helmets.
The neighborhood is quiet, safe, and relaxed, and the location can't be beat-downtown Port Royal is less than a mile away and offers variety of restaurants, bars, coffee shops, the Sands Beach, and the Cypress Wetlands Boardwalk trail. Paris Island is literally 2 minutes away if you are in town for a military graduation. The historic and remarkable town of Beaufort is a 4 mile drive down Ribaut Road.
We've made the most of the interior layout to create a well-appointed little getaway with your comfort and convenience in mind. The completely remodeled kitchen is fully stocked with everything you'll need to prepare a Lowcountry feast-or use the gas grill in the backyard to grill up some fresh seafood-we’ve got some great recommendations and insider tips for shopping in our house guide.
You’ll find the bedrooms clean and comfortable, with first rate 100 % cotton linens. The Wireless internet is very fast, and you can watch all your subscriptions on our 42 inch Samsung Smart T.V.
We have a fully stocked Laundry room, and provide have everything you might need for the beach: In addition to a South Carolina State Park pass that gets you free admission onto the wonderful Hunting Island, we provide beach towels, beach toys, folding chairs and a beach umbrella. Hunting Island is a 25-minute drive and a trip back in time through beautiful St Helena Island. Savannah is an hour south, and Charleston in 1.5 hours north, so your in the perfect place to enjoy all that the Lowcountry has to offer!

Absolutely Amazing!

Our family stayed here for our sons graduation from Parris Island! It was the perfect home to stay at for such an incredible event! The screened in patio and backyard made having family come see our new Marine so easy and felt like home! The home was also right down the street from the Island which made getting there beyond easy! Absolutely wonderful people!!

A Perfect Refuge

This was our 2nd time staying at The Spanish Moss Cottage. The property is newly renovated, fresh, and sparkling clean. No detail left out when it comes to your comfort and enjoyment. We love this location as it’s on a quiet street, has a beautifully fenced and landscaped backyard, and is near so many points of interest!! The host is great and responds promptly. Highly recommend and will definitely return! Thank you, Susanna!!
