Just Like HOME
I stayed over the 4th of July. What a great place .VERY CLEAN and nicely decorated.!! . Five minutes to outlets, 15 to Hilton Head Island, and blocks away from the historic Town of Blufton that has great restaurants.( Mexican and Hog Head Kitchen and Wine Bar.) The backyard was wonderful for evening sittings. The kitchen has what you need and ICE in the freezer waiting for drinks.The neighborhood is quiet, neighbors were friendly, and I felt very safe coming back after midnight walking the streets. There is also a beautiful park across the street. The property manager attended to a need ASAP when I thought a fan didn't work. She resolved the concern. I am looking forward to renting again.

Beauty in Bluffton
We were looking for a pet-friendly, quiet place to stay while visiting family, and this home delivered! Located steps away from a park meant our pup was very happy. The home was clean and comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would highly recommend it to others.
