As always, this home is the perfect rental because it feels like a home. Charming, cozy, well appointed and looks like the cover of a Southern Living magazine. Every window has an amazing view. We are always content to just spend our time in the home and yard and rarely go out. Everything is convenient and the hosts are absolute dolls. Had the lights on for us when we got her after dark. Southern hospitality at its finest! Highly recommend. See y’all again soon!
The cottage was so quaint and eclectic. The azaleas were in full bloom and lovely. My only complaint was the stairs and different levels would be tricky for young children or seniors. Overall the location and home was extremely nice.
Everything was topnotch. Host was immediately responsive; the cottage was well stocked with paper products and kitchen equipment. Decor was attractive.
The house and location were stunning. Within walking distance to all of Beaufort’s charming downtown. We had a wonderful stay and would recommend the house to anyone! I had to message the host and she responded immediately, great communication.
What a terrific place to stay. We enjoyed our week here. Laura is a great host who was always prompt with information or with answers. The house was very clean and everything you would need was in place. The setting of this property is most appealing and it is a great location to stay. Hope to return again.
We loved this historic house, primarily for its location (about 5-10 minutes from anything you'd want to see in Beaufort). A nice park that is literally next door was a bonus, as were the hardwood floors, ample parking and safe neighborhood. Would definitely return.
We had a delightful stay at Laura's property. The home was comfortable and inviting, just as described, and Laura was friendly and helpful with anything we needed. We can't wait to return.
Our stay was perfect from beginning to end and Laura was fantastic to communicate with! We stayed here for a few nights leading up to and following our wedding and it could not have been more perfect. My husband and I even got ready and shared some private vows here and it was perfectly intimate and beautiful. The home and grounds made for lovely photos. It was just the two of us and parents (wouldn’t recommend doing for larger parties for space and for courtesy to the host as their home is nearby). Would recommend for any getaway to BFT.
We loved this property. It was just as described. We went to Beaufort for the Thanksgiving holiday. We had plenty of room for my husband, my twin college-age sons, and me.
The house was immaculate. Thank you for having coffee and filters in the cabinet!
We will definitely be back!
Quirky older home (millstone front stoop) in quiet neighborhood for great morning strolls under the trees. Easy walk to downtown dining. Comfy 2nd-floor bed tucked under the “eaves”. Thoughtfully stocked with plentiful towels, night lights & hangers. Laura offers great advice on activities (book sale for the local library!). Try Spartina Charters for family-friendly educational boat tours of Bluffton saltmarsh.
This cottage was a great stay for my family. I have two kids under the age of 5 and they loved being able to walk to the playground. The house was clean and was just like what we expected. The host was great at communicating. We really enjoyed are stay.
We found this to be a gem of a property! A wonderful home - very comfortable and well equipped. It is beautifully situated on a safe and peaceful street right next to a excellent park.
We are pleased to give this property our highest rating and recommendation.
While looking for new place to visit, we settled on Beaufort SC, next thing, where to stay. Not the hotel type, we like a home setting. This place jumped off the page while searching and I looked at the listing for a few weeks, messaged the owner and my questions where answered, from there we booked the trip. This place is AMAZING, the owners are as well. Spotless and inviting, great quiet neighborhood. Close to every amenity the area has to offer, maybe I should say less to keep the secret longer, but this is a great place if you enjoy long walks under the ancient Oaks covered in Spanish Moss and ferns. Old historic buildings and culture. An untarnished public state-owned beach. Great foods. I could go on and on. But the home is better than I expected and a very nice surprise.
Charming house and property. Fantastic host. Highly recommended!
Charming house and property. Fantastic host. Highly recommended! Love the outdoor space with the live oaks in Spanish moss. Will definitely stay there again. Thanks!
The cottage was so pretty and right beside a beautiful park. Perfect for our family. We had a karate tournament for my son on Saturday and we decided to make a long weekend of it. The cottage had everything we needed and more. It had a nice area outside to sit and/or eat as well. We will definitely be back!
