About this property

Access to Pools, Fitness Centers & Restaurants! Home & Guest House included

Nestled under majestic Pine Trees and ancient Magnolias, this home in West Wilson Village is the perfect place to experience Palmetto Bluff. Easily within walking distance to the shops and eating establishments in Wilson Village, and the renowned RT's Market (known for its fine gourmet groceries and wine selection) the Grace Cottage is located in one of the Palmetto Bluff's most exclusive neighborhoods. Privacy plus close proximity to bike/walking paths, tennis, and The Treehouse Playground the Grace Cottage is the perfect house in the perfect setting. Enjoy the additional guest house (carriage house) which has a King size bed and a fold out sofa creating sleeping for an additional 3 guests! Cleaning fee includes guest house cleaning.

The house boasts high vaulted ceilings and an open floor plan giving guests a sense of spaciousness and light. The many large windows provide guests with multiple views of the lush courtyard. Hydrangeas, a staple of the South, grow with abandon at certain times of the year, and adorn the home with their colorful petals and gorgeous scent.

The large living room is beautifully appointed with a plush sectional sofa and a large upholstered chair for relaxing, reading, and/or conversing. A big screen TV is located above the gas fireplace.

The Carolina Room, a second seating area, sits adjacent to the living room and offers guests extra space to entertain, read, play games or just chill. It boasts a stylish sofa and comfy upholstered chair-- the perfect complement to the living room. The view from the Carolina Room is of the gardens adorning the courtyard-- vibrant with all manner of Southern foliage.

The gourmet kitchen comes completely equipped with pans and utensils needed to whip up breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks and beyond. The walk-in kitchen pantry holds plates, cups, and glasses as well as extra storage space for guests.
For dining, the elegant marble dining table provides seating for up to 8. The granite-countered island and accompanying bar stools add flexibility and dining options for guests. A gas grill is located just outside the kitchen, and should you like to dine al fresco, an umbrella table for 4 is in the courtyard under twinkle lights. The perfect end to a perfect day.

The home has 3 bedrooms and sleeps up to 4 adults plus 4 guests (bunks: children) comfortably.

The luxurious Downstairs Master Suite has a King bed, and Master bath with a steam shower and two separate sink areas. A cushioned window seat in the Master Bath provides an extra space to relax. A large walk-in closet connects the bedroom and the bath. The room has a large screen TV just above the gas fireplace--the perfect place to unwind and prepare for a good night's sleep.

Th Upstairs Guest Room has a Queen bed, large closet and en-suite bathroom with shower.

Upstairs Guest Room #2 has 2 bunk beds (One bed could sleep 2 children) and bathroom with bathtub/shower combo. For extra seating, a love seat flanks the window overlooking the courtyard below.

Location is everything and Grace Cottage is perfectly situated in one of the best located neighborhoods Palmetto Bluff offers. Just far enough from the Village to provide peace and quiet, the house is still within walking distance to the ever-popular RT's market. Named for Robert Thornton Wilson (the original founder of Palmetto Bluff) RT's has a "town square" like feeling, where guests and residents alike gather to purchase sundries at the various boutiques, whimsical gifts and other "necessities" like fine wines. The beloved staff at RT's work tirelessly to make family/friend functions meet the expectations of their customers. It is adjacent to the Wilson Lawn & Racquet Club offering tennis, pickleball, bocce ball, croquet and even basket ball courts.

Palmetto Bluff is vast -- located on over 24,000 acres that include an expansive nature preserve. Winding around and through all of the luscious resort are miles of walking and biking trails. Bicycling at the Bluff is a favorite pastime for guests and residents and bike rental is easy from either Outside Palmetto Bluff (the community adventure outfitters) or from the Bike Barn/Sports Addiction.

As stated above, the Cottage is a short walk or bike ride to the historic Wilson Village. There guests can wander among the ruins of the historic "Wilson Mansion" and, through an experiential placard, learn about the grand home that once graced the very special lawn in the village.

Visitors can dine in Wilson Village as well. For casual dining, Buffalo's is the place. Here guests can enjoy breakfast, lunch or dinner. It doesn't get more Southern than Buffalo's. Or, across the green from Buffalo's coffee and pastries are served fresh each morning at Buzz. Also casual dining is available behind the Montage Hotel at Fore & Aft on the inland waterway and The Canteen in Moreland Village.

For more formal dining guests can take advantage of the The Canoe Club Restaurant, The River House Restaurant and Hush Speakeasy downstairs or at The Octagon in the Montage Resort Hotel itself. More casual dining available in Moreland at Cole's Restaurant, The Canteen, Fore & Aft behind the resort on the waterway and after a day at golf unwinding at the May River Golf Grille is a must.

Within the heart of Palmetto Bluff and just a short walking distance from 6 Astbury
is the Wilson Lawn and Racquet Club. This grand tennis facility includes eight Har-Tru tennis courts, two Bocce ball courts, 8 pickleball courts, a basketball court and 2 croquet courts. The facility also includes four court-side shelters, two lighted exhibition-size courts, a pro-shop and pavilion for all court-side needs. Pine and Live Oaks line and surround the club providing shade and adding to the Southern aura.

The smooth and scenic dolphin-filled waterways are perfect for kayaking and paddle-boarding around the marshes. Wilson Landing and Marina serve to gear guests with all their water sports activities. Outside Palmetto Bluff can set you up or captain your inland waterway cruises.

Your concierge can assist with boat charters to take guests on scenic cruises or fishing excursions. For dining at the Canoe Club Restaurant or Cole's Restaurant the Member Concierge can assist you in making reservations by calling her at 843-706-5515. For reservations at the The River House Restaurant, the Octagon Lounge or at the Octagon Porch situated in the prestigious Montage Resort Hotel Open Table is available for bookings. For golf tee times or questions about anything Palmetto Bluff call Grace Cottage Concierge: Audrey Rohde: 619-540-9090.

The peace and relaxation of Grace Cottage at Palmetto Bluff awaits you.

Audrey is AMAZING!
I recently stayed at a vacation rental managed by Audrey and had an amazing experience. She was incredibly attentive and responsive, making sure all our needs were met and providing helpful recommendations for things to do in the area. Any concerns we had were promptly addressed, and her commitment to ensuring our stay was stress-free was exceptional. Audrey's professionalism and attention to detail made our vacation unforgettable. I highly recommend booking with Audrey for an exceptional vacation rental experience. Thank you, Audrey, for a wonderful stay!

Beautiful property
This home is very spacious and well laid out with a beautiful open common area. It is a short walk or even shorter bike ride into Wilson village or RT’s market. Our family really enjoyed relaxing here in early March and we were lucky to have surprisingly warm weather. The house is in an older part of Palmetto Bluff which is more natural looking and lush. It definitely seemed a bit quieter here than immediately in the village, and the houses also seemed more spacious with yards. The additional space in the courtyard and the carriage house gave everyone lots of room to stretch out and we really appreciated that all the bedrooms had their own en suite bathrooms. This property has been nicely decorated and the mattresses were extremely comfortable. We had a couple of hiccups with the air conditioning that is probably the result of the home being older and having older systems, but Audrey was incredibly attentive and did everything she could to resolve the issues. She is probably one of the most thorough and responsive property managers I’ve encountered. This house is close to being 5 stars, but its age and wear in some spots and older systems are keeping it from being quite as luxury as it could be for the price point. That said, it was extremely clean and very spacious and if that is a priority for your group, over a newer rental with less square footage, this is a very lovely property.

Had a wonderful time. House and location totally as advertised. Two families of 4 shared home with young adult kids. Able to relax inside and utilize all facilities with ease due to location. Super clean and well stocked.
