Great house and location in Beaufort
We loved the Cottage on Congress. It looks exactly as shown in the pictures on the internet. Very comfortable and cozy house with everything you need for your stay. Easy walk to the town of Beaufort and easy access to local restaurants. We will definitely rent this cottage again!

Beautiful, Clean, Great location
This property is absolutely beautiful! Truly one of the cleanest and well-equipped properties I’ve ever stayed in. You’re drive to popular locations, such as Bay Street and the water, is very short but the neighborhood is very quiet. The owner is very helpful and accommodating, even allowing us to check in early due to housekeeping being ahead of schedule. If we’re ever back in the area, this is where we’ll be staying!

Beautiful Historic Remodel!
This historic remodel is our favorite so far! This home looks and feels like an old home, but all modern needs have been met. Both bedrooms have very comfortable beds and wonderful showers. Great for 2 couples. Short walk…plenty of parking for those of us who drove…great shops and food. A visit to Beaufort, SC is a vacation well spent. Alison was wonderful and so helpful!

Quick getaway!
We loved our stay at this gorgeous home. The bed was super comfy and we had amazing sleep. The kitchen was well-stocked and beautiful. I wish we had an opportunity to cook more. We enjoyed riding the bikes into town to grab coffee in the morning and dinner at night. The cafe across the street was a lovely perk as well!!.

Perfect in every way
The cottage is lovely, comfy and welcoming. The location was perfect , very close to everything. Magnolias cafe across the street is wonderful. Neighborhood is very quiet and the people are very friendly. We walked to downtown (10 blocks) and through the beautiful neighborhood to see the big lovely homes. Every morning sat on the front porch having coffee and watching the water and boats It was a great vacation and we will be back next year.
