Just perfect

We absolutely loved our stay at Shell and are looking forward to our return next year. The location was just perfect and with all of the surrounding food, shopping and sites, we could walk everywhere and enjoy. The cottage was clean, the bed fantastic and Robin was so nice to work with. Thanks for making it a great one

This cottage was just perfect! Traveling alone (had recently lost my husband) and I needed some away time to try and ground myself. I had communicated with the owner prior to booking, and Robin was incredible! She promptly emailed me local favorite restaurants and others, things to do, places to see…I felt very safe in the neighborhood which was a convenient 2 blocks from Front Street(where most all of the shops and eateries are located). This cottage is well equipped and plenty roomy enough for a couple. I want to return! Beaufort offered such peace and the entire community was so friendly!

Perfect Getaway

Comfortable little cottage within walking distance to everything Beaufort has to offer. It was perfectly appointed with everything we needed. We enjoyed the grill and patio area and the bikes to cruz around town. We will absolutely stay here again the next time we’re in town.

Love theses cottages

We have stayed there many times over the last 20 years. Always clean this time we stay in the cabin that takes dogs. We have never stayed in this one before. It was very nice on the inside. Everything was clean. We like because we can walk to downtown.

The Shell Cottage

The Shell Cottage is in a perfect location. It is convenient for walking to restaurants and stores. It is off the street and that allows some privacy. The bikes are an added bonus.
