Great stay for air show

Was staying in the area for vacation to stroll around Beaufort and take in the air show at the Marine base. House was in a great spot to take advantage of both. It was quiet and lovely in the evenings and a great spot to watch the Blue Angels from the dock during the day.

Nice, dog friendly and quiet...

The property was nice and the owner, who lives next door, was responsive to issues. The house is older and has been remodeled. It was clean and well stocked. The plumbing can be persnickety with hot water issues (addressed by the owner) and clogged toilets upon arrival (which we handled and then notified owner). The yard is wonderful. There is a small fenced area for dogs to potty, which was a surprise and very helpful. The deck and dock provided access to beautiful scenery, fishing and crabbing. The dock is in need of repairs, with several loose boards, but otherwise was as described.and was where we spent much of our time.We look forward to staying again, as the location was quiet, and not far from Beaufort amenities.

Pretty setting

The weather played a huge impact as it limited our overall enjoyment of our stay. However, the host was very responsive, the house was spacious and the setting (minus the snow!) was beautiful.

Peacefull and relaxing

We stayed at Kevin and Jane's home for 4 days. We had been traveling for quite a while and needed a few days of respite. The view ( especially from the screened porch) was wonderful. They were very helpful with any questions that we had. We enjoyed our stay and would like to return..

Roomy, comfortable and private

My husband and I stayed for a very relaxing week. Large piece of property that was located right on the water. Fishing (big one got away) crabbing and with dolphins swimming by and an otter! The king bed was very comfortable and the house was large and set up well. Love the area and Savannah only an hour away. Highly recommended for a couple or large family. Dogs are welcome. We loved hanging in the screened porch and out on the dock.

Nice and Quiet

Nice, quiet home for us to enjoy while here visiting our son, daughter-in-law and their new baby. <3 We loved the decorations throughout the house and really enjoyed the dock in the backyard. We even had a few "adventures" like figuring out how to make the coffee maker work without a power button and adopting the giant spider on the back porch as our temporary "pet". Owners were very quick to kindly answer all my questions and check in/check out were super easy. Thank you again for a perfect stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sunmist Cottage. Kevin & Jane are accommodating, gracious and very caring Hosts. We can't thank them enough for their hospitality and arranging those heavenly sunrises and sunsets😉 The memories made with my children and grandchildren while there will be treasured forever. I am hoping to return to Seabrook, and hope that Sunmist Cottage will be available!! Thank You again. Sincerely, The Urban Family

Relaxing stay on the river

The property has everything we needed for our family of 4 and 2 dogs. It was pretty clean, but not pretentious, which allowed us to be comfortable with our stay. The cordage is conveniently located close to beautiful downtown Beaufort and made for easy day trips to Charleston and Savannah, as well as Hunting Island and Edisto beaches. The charm of Sunmist is definitely in the dock, where we enjoyed using crab pots, seeing dolphins pass, and some of the most lovely sunrises over the salt Marsh. The abundant yard made an excellent play land for our family and our dogs. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sunmist cottage.
