OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:

2​1+ to book

This is a no smoking property. If you smoke inside, there will be an additional fee of $500 minimum to remove the smoke smell.

We provide an initial supply of toilet paper and paper towels, but you might need to purchase more if you have a longer stay.

A smart TV is provided and is available for guests to log into their own streaming services and apps. Cable tv/ live tv is not provided.

No late check-out or early check-in. If a guest does not vacate the property by 10 AM on their scheduled day of departure, the fee for failing to vacate is $100.00.

Please note that Palmetto bugs are a common occurrence in Beaufort and the surrounding Lowcountry region. Due to the area’s humid climate and proximity to marshlands, these insects may occasionally be seen indoors, particularly during periods of high humidity or after heavy rainfall. Palmetto bugs are a natural part of the local environment and are not the same as cockroaches. Their presence does not indicate a lack of cleanliness or an infestation. The property is professionally cleaned and treated regularly by a licensed pest control service to minimize their occurrence.

We are available via the platform app for any questions you may have. In case of an urgent emergency please call 911.

*TRAVEL INSURANCE HIGHLY ADVISED* - There will be no refunds for weather, natural disasters, power outages, personal matters, or other things that are beyond our control. Please protect your trip by purchasing Travel Insurance.

Please Note: Normal wear and tear is to be expected in any lived-in space, including vacation rentals. Our listing clearly outlines what is and isn’t provided so guests can book with confidence. Unless there is clear damage to the property or your stay was significantly impacted by an issue, we do not offer refunds for completed stays. Thank you for understanding and helping us maintain a fair hosting environment for all.

IMPORTANT Note for USMC Graduation Guests:
If you are booking dates for a Marine Corps graduation, we highly recommend reserving the night of graduation as well. Guests are not typically permitted to bring all luggage onto base, and vehicle checks can cause delays or complications.

While we do our best to accommodate military families coming to support their Marine, please note that we cannot guarantee luggage storage after checkout on graduation day. Additionally, early check-ins and late checkouts are not always possible due to our cleaning team’s schedule and back-to-back reservations. Our cleaners manage multiple properties, and we want to ensure each home is perfectly prepared for every guest.
Thank you for your understanding, and congratulations on your Marine’s achievement!

We expect to not be negatively reviewed for anything communicated accurately here.

About the host

Hosted by Sarah Martin

Host profile image
Hello! I'm your host, Maddie, and I'm thrilled to welcome you to beautiful Beaufort, South Carolina! I'm a local, so I can give you the inside scoop on all the best spots to visit.

I absolutely love living here, especially during the summer. There's nothing quite like a relaxing boat ride on the water, or the beach, soaking up the sun and enjoying the stunning scenery. When I'm not out exploring, or shopping downtown, you can usually find me spending time with my two dogs, that I call children, Moose and Bean, or enjoying some quality time with my husband. I also love curling up with a good book and a refreshing iced coffee.

As your host, I'm passionate about providing true Southern hospitality and giving you a taste of what makes Beaufort so special. I'm excited to share my love of this town with you and help you create unforgettable memories during your stay. So, sit back, relax, and let me take care of the rest!
