Beautiful property with dock and the space had everything we needed. We had a great time. The bikes and bike path were an added bonus. Would have loved to use the paddleboards and kayaks but missed the tide timing. Hope to return!

Easy to check in, thoughtful host has provided a cozy, light and airy cottage. Well appointed kitchen, living/ dining area, bedroom and bath were all immaculate and looked out onto the marsh and dock. We enjoyed sitting on the deck morning and evening. Very comfortable and updated. Very peaceful neighborhood, right next to a walking/biking trail. Six minutes into town was very convenient! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would return! Highly recommend!!

Excellent property. Great location. Located right on the Spanish Moss Trail for biking or walking (with bikes provided!). Great accomodations. Views of the sunset from either the attached 2nd floor deck or the covered deck at the end of the dock. The location was an easy bike ride into Beaufort, slightly longer to get to Port Royal but an easy ride. Would highly recommend.
