Darling Cottage on PRIVATE LAKE & acreage

Come relax with family and friends at this charming cottage located on acreage overlooking a private lake teaming with native wildlife. Let both the two-legged and four-legged kids run around in a fenced backyard underneath majestic live oaks. Located within a private equestrian community, directly adjacent to Hewitt Oaks for events, and very close to Savannah, HHI, and Oldtown Bluffton. An additional adjacent apartment may be requested by messaging host.
The space
This space is reminiscent of Old Bluffton with beautiful oaks, wildlife, and scenic views. Peace and tranquility can be found as soon as you turn on the winding dirt road. Say goodbye to crowded neighborhoods and traffic and enjoy the quiet nature surrounding this one-of-a-kind cottage. Come build a fire, light up the grill, and enjoy the outdoors as you overlook the private lake. This house is also a bird watchers delight with numerous wild ducks, geese, and songbirds.

This house also serves as the perfect getaway for a wedding party, as it directly adjacent to Hewitt oaks and right outside the gates of Palmetto Bluff.
Guest access
Guests will have the entire 3 bedroom / 2.5 baths home all to themselves. Guests will also be able to enjoy the private lake, fenced in backyard, and ample acreage to themselves. An additional adjacent apartment with its own king bed, tv, bathroom, and kitchenette is also available upon request for an extra fee if more space is needed.
Dogs can enjoy a specially designated room, “the dog room” which is equipped with beds, bowls, and toys. The room is completely visible as a main part of the house so your pet will not feel left out of the fun. The room is also connected straight into the fenced in backyard. Please understand that pets are not allowed in the rest of the house.
Please remember that all fishing is catch and release. No smoking on premises is allowed. A strict fine will be issued if tobacco use is present on property.

Meandering Crater Road
The Darling Cottage House was clean, spacious and the most serene place I have ever visited. The lake out back provided the peace and calm I was seeking. One friend with us is an avid bird watcher and she was not disappointed. We were so surprised to know that Bluffton is only 30 mins from both Hilton Head and Savannah, and we were able to visit both places. The people in Bluffton were friendly and the food, especially at Bluffton BBQ on "State of Mind St." was outstanding. I wasn't going to include this, but since I was asked to give this review a title, the first thing that came to mind is " Meandering Crater Road". As lovely as the property is, the access to it was a quite challenging. Our first impression was to see the charm of the road to the location, but the deep craters, pooled with water cause us to drive at a snail's pace and meander around them, thus we dubbed the road "Meandering Crater Road." Aside from the road, we had a wonderful stay at the cottage house. Heidi was always prompt in responding to our inquiries from start to finish. We even booked an extra day! I would really enjoy visiting the Darling Cottage House on the Lake again.
