Good location. Walking distance to downtown and tour sites. Great to have a parking space off -street, so no need for pay for parking. Clean , well lit interior with all amenities. Note: 2-ply toilet paper, a real plus!! Suggest that a step-by-step process be printed for operating the TV ( for the electronically challenged).

The charming cottage provided my family with easy access to downtown Beaufort and spaces for us to gather in (living and dining room). The front porch also created additional space to sit and talk. We greatly appreciated the location, parking spaces for 2 cars, fully loaded kitchen, washer/dryer, decor, and spacious bedrooms. Overall, a great place that has historic charm!
