A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Beaufort – Pure Southern Charm!

We can’t wait to go back! From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the charm and elegance of this stunning Carriage House. The property itself is an absolute dream—immaculately maintained, with gorgeous landscaping that welcomes you into a private oasis of serenity. The cobblestone drive leading to the cottage added an extra touch of historic charm, making us feel like we had stepped into a storybook.As we strolled down the garden path through the lush courtyard, we were already enchanted before even stepping inside. And then—what a delight! The cottage was warm, inviting, and impeccably designed, blending modern comforts with timeless Lowcountry character. Every detail was thoughtfully curated, from the cozy furnishings to the soft lighting that created an ambiance of total relaxation.Mornings were spent sipping coffee on the charming patio, surrounded by birdsong and a gentle coastal breeze, while evenings were perfect for unwinding under the twinkling Southern sky. The location could not have been better—just minutes from downtown Beaufort’s delightful shops, restaurants, and waterfront, yet tucked away in a peaceful retreat that felt like our own private escape.Ellen and Mike, you are the most gracious hosts, and your hospitality truly made our stay exceptional. Thank you for sharing this little slice of heaven with us! We are already counting down the days until we can return to this magical retreat.

We will be back next year (3rd time). Do wish it had 2 things: First - cable TV ( Couldn't get much of anything on a new TV and couldn't cast to it, watched my iPad mostly .... No ball games), and 2: a grab bar in the shower for us old people.

Close enough to walk to Bay St.

Although we were close enough to everything that we could walk, the area was very quiet. The house was well furnished. Even had bug repellent, beach towels, and sun block, for our drive to Hunting Island. We used the queen bedroom and the bed was very comfy. We will definitely book the Carriage House again.

Exceptional “southern charm” cottage apartment

We very much enjoyed this property! Perfect location in Beaufort’s historic district…close walking distance to town and waterfront park. This cottage has tasteful decor and furnishings…it’s better than the photos. The owner is a sweet southern lady that is very accommodating and easy to work with. Highly recommend.

Charming carriage house

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We were in the ground floor space of the charming two-story carriage house. The property was immaculately clean and fresh, and had everything we needed. The shaded porch had rocking chairs to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful gardens. The location is perfect - close to Bay Street in the heart of the historic district. We will stay again when we return to Beaufort!

Nice cottage downtown

We enjoyed staying at this property. The cottage had all that we needed: clean bathroom, kitchen, living space, bedroom. Within walking distance to downtown but as my husband has a disability we drove the 4-5 blocks to get to the shopping end of Bay St. Easy parking. Recommend.

Great Place to Stay

We had a great time! The property is beautiful, clean, and peaceful. A short walk into Beaufort to enjoy the sights, food, and shopping. They had a music festival that we enjoyed as well. Would definitely recommend the home and area to visit. Even though the house was close to the town, there were no noise issues. Thanks!!

Beautiful Beaufort

My sister and I were first timers in Beaufort, SC. We stayed at the gorgeous carriage house at the corner of Craven and Newcastle streets. The housing was more than we even expected—spotlessly clean, beautiful antique furnishings, comfortable beds, AC worked great, and beautifully appointed, including some of the host’s original artwork. We can’t wait to return!!

This was the cleanest, most accommodating VRBO home we’ve stayed in. We were in the lower part of the Carriage House. It was beautiful and quaint. Ellen and Mike leave you wanting for nothing. Everything you need and even the things you didn’t know you forgot were available. So easy to walk the 2 blocks to town. Would and hope to stay again.

Lovely property in a wonderful location

We spent a long weekend in the lower apartment at the Bluff. The space is beautiful and very comfortable, and our hosts were welcoming and gracious. We loved staying in a gorgeous downtown neighborhood just a short walk away from the waterfront and so many shops and great restaurants. Loved sitting on the porch and seeing the magnificent live oak trees all around us. I would highly recommend the Bluff.
