Relaxing Beaufort Cottage

The Cottage is in one of our favorite walking neighborhoods as we’ve stayed in Beaufort several times. Everything was as expected from pictures & description on VRBO. Best feature was screened porch with gas fireplace. Only negative would be very small bathroom. Enjoyed our stay.

Week long stay in Beaufort

The cottage was a beautiful little home in a lovely neighborhood. Everything about this cottage is as pictured. We couldn't have asked for more. We especially enjoyed sitting on the back patio in the evenings by the fireplace. It was a perfect time of year for that. We plan to come back to Beaufort and would stay here again, but the next time we come back, we will probably bring our dog and this cottage is only for people which is the only reason we wouldn't stay here again. We highly recommend it!!!

Hi my name is Janice. My husband Frank and I feel very blessed to have bought this little gem of a cottage from Marianne. She did an outstanding job, completely renovating and transforming this small home built in 1950 into the stunning cottage it is today, with high end furnishings, but with a relaxing cottage feel. We hope that you will be able to come and enjoy, relax and take in the pleasures of beautiful Beaufort, while staying at the Cozy Cottage.
