This townhome was in a wonderful location, right beside a park and dog park. It is a pet friendly rental. Very walkable area and minutes away from shops, restaurants, and cafes. The home was clean and stocked with necessity items. The host was very communicable. Highly recommend!

Beauty in Bluffton

We were looking for a pet-friendly, quiet place to stay while visiting family, and this home delivered! Located steps away from a park meant our pup was very happy. The home was clean and comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would highly recommend it to others.

Just Like HOME

I stayed over the 4th of July. What a great place .VERY CLEAN and nicely decorated.!! . Five minutes to outlets, 15 to Hilton Head Island, and blocks away from the historic Town of Blufton that has great restaurants.( Mexican and Hog Head Kitchen and Wine Bar.) The backyard was wonderful for evening sittings. The kitchen has what you need and ICE in the freezer waiting for drinks.The neighborhood is quiet, neighbors were friendly, and I felt very safe coming back after midnight walking the streets. There is also a beautiful park across the street. The property manager attended to a need ASAP when I thought a fan didn't work. She resolved the concern. I am looking forward to renting again.

About the host

Host profile image
Originally born in Australia but have traveled to many places around the globe. Old Town Bluffton & Hilton Head Island are 2 of my top places. You get the best of both worlds all within one area. The beach, river, historic small town, combined with southern charm. The oak trees & hanging moss - mixed with tropical palm trees.... just so beautiful and unique. I want to bring to essence of the town inside of the property for my guests to enjoy!
