The Space:
The "Da Fuskie Dreams" House is an incredibly wonderful addition to the Daufuskie vacation home rental inventory! It's difficult to describe how lovely and unique this house is! It's breathtakingly lovely, starting with the fabulous screened-in front porch featuring a suspension "swing bed" and "swing table." As soon as you walk onto the porch, you will know you are in for a one-of-a-kind island experience!
You’ll love the beauty and comfort of this well-equipped house, its serene setting, and large screened-in front porch. The house is impeccably constructed and designed. The pretty kitchen is fully equipped, making preparing family meals a snap. The Living Room includes great views of the surrounding woods and features a flat-screen Smart TV. The owner has recently had a fiber optics high-speed internet and cable system installed, the only such combo system to be found in a Daufuskie historic district vacation home. Why miss the big game just because you're on Daufuskie?

Guest Access:
The Da Fuskie Dreams House is located on a private and serene wooded setting. There are lots of outside extras such as a hammock suspended between two trees, a fire pit, an outdoor hot/cold shower, and a garage for your rental golf cart. (We will help set up your rental cart with Tour Daufuskie, and it will be delivered directly to your house.)
The Neighborhood:
Let's talk about the location.
This beautiful house (just 6 years old!) is located in the heart of Daufuskie's Historic District, and is perfect for visitors who want to truly experience the local island life on our special island. Visitors are an easy walk away from Daufuskie's historic church, from the Mary Fields School (now housing the School Grounds Coffee Shop and the Daufuskie Blues studio), and from the historic Francis Jones House. Beach Road is just around the corner, and the best beach on the island is a 5 minute golf cart away.
This house is perfect for those who want to get off the beaten track and really get to know this unique and quirky island, including its warm and friendly residents. Visitors are given the opportunity to experience an island life that has all but disappeared from the Low Country region.
Quite frankly, this house has been the talk of the island since it was built, and literally EVERYONE who sees it raves out its uniqueness, beauty, and serene setting.
So what are you waiting for? Book your Daufuskie vacation today and guarantee a memorable experience at the Da Fuskie Dreams House.
Getting Around:
IMPORTANT: YOU MUST TAKE A BOAT TO GET TO DAUFUSKIE ISLAND (WE HELP WITH THE LOGISTICS) AND YOU SHOULD PLAN TO SPEND APPROXIMATELY $65 PER PERSON ROUNDTRIP FOR BOTH BOAT AND GROUND TRANSPORTATION SERVICES.
Please note that it is necessary to take a boat to Daufuskie Island. Costs vary depending on the service you choose, but on average you should plan on about $65-75 per person roundtrip for both boat & ground transportation. (Marina parking fees may also apply.)
Other Things to Note:
PET POLICY:
Well-behaved canine family members are welcome, but must be adult dogs, housetrained, must stay off of furniture, not be incessant barkers, and must be friendly towards humans and other dogs. Upon departure, the vacation home should look as though no pet had been in it, including removal of pet hair. There is a pet fee of $125 for one dog, and $175 for two dogs.
In addition, the property manager must approve all pet requests. Your dog must be over one year old, not be aggressive towards people or other pets, be house trained, will not get up on the furniture, and is ok with being left alone when you are away from the cottage (e.g., no incessant barking or destructive behavior). We also ask that you be a responsible pet owner when the dog is outside, that there will be no signs that your pet was in the property when you depart, and that you will be responsible for any damage and/or extra cleaning caused by your dog.
Interaction with Guests:
Concerned about the logistics of coming to a bridge-less island? No need to worry! Guests receive information and assistance from the DRG team, all of whom live on the island and who are available 24/7 for any problems. Team members strive to create a stress-free and enjoyable adventure for their visitors, and to ensure that their Daufuskie experience creates lasting and once-in-a-lifetime memories.

About the host
Hosted by Daufuskie Rental Group Team

Deborah is the owner of the Da Fuskie Dreams House, and is also owner/president of Daufuskie Rental Group representing a variety of island houses, cottages, and villas. She and her 16 year old son, Shawn, are Daufuskie residents. Deborah greatly enjoys sharing this special island with visitors, and works hard to ensure an easy and memorable trip to her guests.
Why they chose this property
This beautiful little house was built just 6 years ago by an Atlanta couple who did an exception job of designing and decorating the home. It is extremely well-constructed and includes many, many extra features. The location is wonderful, and provides a great option for visitors who want to experience the real Daufuskie.
What makes this property unique
Too many extra benefits to list, but they include an extremely quiet and serene wooded setting, a convenient location close to some of the Historic District's most significant sites, easy access to Beach Road, which provides a 5 minute cart ride to the best beach on the island, and a 2-3 minutes ride to the memorable Lucy Bell's Cafe, a short walk to the School Grounds Coffee Shop and to the Church, and a 10 minute cart ride to the Melrose pool. (Daily fees apply.)
