Easy downtown Beaufort

Really great stay with Bruce and Margaret, the guest house was the perfect situation for myself and my 15 year-old son with the 2 single beds. Very quiet, very casual, and our hosts made sure our stay was just right! Super easy access to all the downtown Beaufort has to offer. The outdoor shower was a huge bonus!

I like being there it’s very close to the waterfront and downtown Beaufort walking distance.

It was great Just one thing the bugs on the porch but other than that, it was perfect. Nothing a little bug spray or bug zapper then take care of but the place was nice and clean. It was perfect. Looking forward being there next year.

This is a great property and in a great location. My husband and I parked our car when we arrived and never had to get back in it until it was time to leave two days later. Everything you need is walking distance. The cottage is adorable and definitely only meant for two people. Very clean as well.

This cute guesthouse was the perfect location and a great cost compared to most places in Beaufort. The beds were fairly noisy when rolling over, but other than that it was a great place!
