We found this home to be excellent. Everything was 100% as advertised. It is right in Old Town Bluffton and an easy walk to all the shops and restaurants. Check our Bluffton BBQ…….the food is excellent. Ted and his wife make you feel right at home. Take a walk down to the May River…..you’ll be glad you did. The Host were great, and easy to contact if needed…..we would certainly recommend this cottage…..

Excellent Location and Accommodations
We were just a block away from the old town square; close enough to stroll to the shops and restaurants in old town Bluffton but far enough away that even Captain Woody's rocking band couldn't break the silence. The wife and I had a quiet room downstairs and the kids had plenty of room to stay and play upstairs. I even enjoyed cooking on the gas stove (when we weren't out eating the local seafood). Just a short drive to Burke's Beach on Hilton Head Island, which had plenty of public parking (free after 5:00).

Wonderful stay in a coastal gem!
I can’t say enough wonderful things about our stay at this cozy coastal gem! We spent a long winter weekend here, and it was exactly what we needed to escape the hustle and bustle. My husband and I both enjoyed the unique, fun decor of the home, and the location was next-to-none. There were so many quaint shops and cafes to explore nearby, and we loved discovering the town’s hidden gems. The host was incredibly responsive and made sure we had everything we needed, even checking in to make sure we were comfortable. We’ll definitely be back next year. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful and beautiful coastal getaway.
