A private getaway, tucked down a little road almost felt like we were locals. Daufuskie Island was a terrific getaway to truly be on island time. This pet friendly home was a perfect place to come back to after a day in the sun and dream porch swings for a nighttime summer storm. Great host very communicative and knowledgeable about the island. Would absolutely book again!
