Conveniently located to all things Beaufort. Home was tidy n clean. No shortage of kitchen supplies, or bedding. Very quiet neighbors and neighborhood. Very attentive host. If and when you visit Beaufort, or the surrounding area, do yourself a favor and think about staying in this cozy little home. You'll be glad you did.Almost forgot to mention. The backyard is a very nice size. Can easily entertain without feeling cramped.
Great location if you are in town for a quick trip to Parris Island. Property is just as described in listing. Host was very responsive to any question/concern. Would recommend!

About the host
Hosted by Terry Taylor
We are from Edgefield SC and have been visiting the low country 3 times a year for the last 5 yrs. My wife loves the water and the coastal life and we decided to move here for retirement so we were able to purchase land and are making plans to build within 2yrs. Being in the real estate business we wanted to offer a short term rental for everyone to experience the beautiful amazing low country.
