Great place to stay!

Rental is very close to many good food options. An if like me you are looking for a rental to visit your new Marine after they have made the 13 long weeks of boot camp and watch them graduate! This is the place it is a short distance to the gates of Parris Island, takes about 10 minutes if that.

Comfortable home

Lovely home with 2 porches to enjoy with just the right amount of sunshine. An easy 1.2 mile walk into town along the water on Bay Street. Well equipped kitchen, very comfortable bed. Included with the home is a parking pass for entry and parking at SC state parks, specifically to Hunting Island State Park. Would highly recommend.

Charming Beaufort Cottage

We very much enjoyed our stay in this 3 bedroom/2.5 bath cottage. This home was so cozy, nicely decorated and very comfortable for our adult family. We were in Beaufort for an event in the historic downtown and the location of this cottage was perfect for easy access to the cute downtown. While there, we visited the lighthouse in Hunting Island (park pass was included in the rental) and enjoyed a long walk on the nearby Spanish MossTrail. The neighborhood was quaint and very quiet. The rental and check-in process was very easy. We were very pleased with this VRBO spot and would rent the property again. Thanks!

Cute house near downtown Beaufort

Clean house on deadend street, walkable to Bay Street shops and waterfront. Spanish Moss trail 6 blocks away. Nice sized house for 2 people or small group. Kitchen even has an air fryer, but I did not find wine glasses. Very comfortable couch. Bed pillows were too big & hard for us. We enjoyed the Reconstruction Era monument & walking tour and the Military Museum on Paris Island. We saw dolphins in the river at Sands Beach!

Beaufort home

We enjoyed the location of this home, good proximity to downtown area and a walking trail. Was generally a very functional home with three bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms and a kitchen, dining and living room. The kitchen was somewhat sparsely equipped and some of the bathroom towels were worn. The screened in porch was delightful. Would advise to review fees charged if you are booking through Evolve. While I am not allowed to mention specifics in this review we found some charges unclear, non refundable and excessive.

Family weekend

Overall we loved our stay at this house. The kids loved the front porch and the fenced in yard was very convenient since we brought our dog. The house was very clean and well stocked. The pass to Hunting Island was great for a day at the beach - it’s beautiful there. For the price, there are a couple items we felt were missing: - more outdoor furniture is needed. The house sleeps 6 (3 bedrooms) but only has two rocking chairs on the front porch and two chairs on the screened in porch. - each bedroom needs some kind of blackout curtains, the sun in the morning was blinding - the duvet for the king bed downstairs is too small and barely reaches the edge of the mattress, and probably for a queen - the living room needs more seating for a place that can sleep 6 - main bathroom needs hooks for towels

Fantastic Stay!

We highly recommend this property! It is exactly as advertised. We very much appreciated the attention to cleanliness - everything was spotless! This is a very comfortable place to stay - great location, great layout, peaceful surroundings, and very well appointed with everything you may need during your visit. We stayed with another couple, and it works out great to have one couple upstairs and one couple downstairs. We were very glad we stayed here instead of another rental that we were considering, which was closer to downtown. We liked having the quiet surroundings of this rental, and a very quick & easy drive to get to the restaurants & attractions downtown. We enjoyed hearing all of the pretty birds that chirped in the big oak trees overhead, and there was plenty of parking. The property management company (Evolve) did a great job with communication about the check-in / check-out process and it was all very easy. I never had to contact them during our visit, as nothing was needed. Don't hesitate to reserve this property - you will enjoy staying here!

Beautiful and very convenient

The house itself is lovely and it was perfect for my family of 4. It was so convenient to MCRD Parris Island which is why we were there. I wish I could have given the 5 stars but there were a few things that wouldn’t allow for the 5++ we didn’t know where the dishes and silverware were until our final day actually our final hours. Yes, I should have called the number when we arrived, that’s on me. We were just so excited and busy and honestly didn’t care. ( I didn’t even think to look in the dishwasher) I wouldn’t have expected to empty the dishwasher upon arrival. Also one of the garbage cans in the kitchen was dirty I assumed that was for recycling since there was no liner placed there. I cleaned that up no problem. When we were leaving which was actually the day before our reservation ended I texted the host to let them know about that stuff and was a little bit disappointed that I didn’t get a reply, it did show that it was read however. I had to hand wash a few items that couldn’t fit in the already full dishwasher I was hoping that that was ok which is why I would have liked the response. Anyway, it was a really lovely home and I enjoyed every minute that was spent there. I will forever hold fond memories of it and would totally stay again or recommend the home to future Marine Corps graduates family’s Thank you for a wonderful experience Brant and Israelson family

Happy Yellow Cottage

This property earned the name from our grandchildren as we turned into the driveway 😀 The descriptions on the site were accurate, but I can add a few words. The decor is lovely, bright and features local artists (explained in detail in the visitor notebook). The kitchen is spacious, clean and well-stocked with utensils and cooking gear. There was plenty of privacy; the fully fenced back and side yards provided lots of “run-around” space., There’s a picnic table too! A cozy screened-in back porch gave us a quiet place to listen to birds and tree frogs as we all wound down from our busy days. The large bedroom on the first floor features a king bed, large dresser, full bath with tub/shower and a walk-in closet. I had dibs on this one lol, glad I did! Two bedrooms, a landing with two dormer windows and full bath upstairs gave lots of room to play, nap, goof off and make forts. The front porch is wide and welcoming, with two rocking chairs that were constantly in use. I especially liked the sturdy gate at the outdoor stairs. It’s a reliable boundary for little ones or fur babies. Don’t miss the tire swing tucked away in a corner of the front yard…not just for little kids 🥰 It’s easy to reach all the attractions/shops/restaurants/military installations from this location. Keep in mind, this is a real neighborhood, so there are variations in what surrounds the “Happy Yellow Cottage” most properties are well-kept or improved. Also, there is a noise ordinance in town, so group parties or boisterous shenanigans are not tolerated…plan any celebrations for early in the day…and respect the neighbors. We had a lovely time, thank you for becoming part of our wonderful vacation!

Family visit

We enjoyed our stay @yellowhomesc. The home was exactly as listed and very comfortable. The location is within walking distance (1 mile) to downtown Beaufort. Overall the neighborhood was very quiet with the exception of the neighbor's dog barking our last night at the property. The front porch rocking chairs were a wonderful way to enjoy a cup of coffee and the beautiful late winter weather. The fenced back yard was perfect size for our dogs to enjoy some off leash yard time. We took advantage of the park pass and spent an afternoon at Hunting Island. The only suggestion we would have would be to have some cleaning supplies (Windex, extra paper towels etc ) on hand for visitor's use. Thank you for the use of your beautiful home!

Pleasant Beaufort Cottage

A cute cottage located near Beaufort's charming downtown. One can stroll to town if desired. I recommend walking in the direction of town if heading out on a stroll; the houses are very attractive and historic nearer to town. We felt safe walking during the day (never ventured out at night). This route was also good for walking a pup. In February, the streets were not terribly busy so it was a pleasure to take leisurely strolls and chat with locals. Note: for dog walkers, there are MANY barking, overly interested dogs kept in yards in the area BUT fortunately they remained within their fences when we passed by. Having a fenced in back yard for our pup was welcome. There are apartments in close proximity across a fence; happily there was absolutely no loud music nor disruption from the apartments during our visit. Our host was swift to respond to and fulfill our requests for a tea kettle and conventional coffeemaker which was very appreciated. If one cooks a great deal, the kitchen supplies were on the sparse side (plenty of plates, cutlery, etc but there could have been more pots and pans, a colander, etc). The master bedroom bed was comfortable. Internet was strong and quick. It's a nice, attractive property. We enjoyed our stay very much!

We’re Ian and Scarlett. We live in Charleston now, but the Lowcountry has our whole hearts — which is a big part of why we love hosting in Beaufort. We’re originally from Denver, CO, and after moving to South Carolina a few years ago, we fell in love with the slower pace, the coastal beauty, and the genuine hospitality here.
We’re a family of three with a fun, energetic daughter and our dog, Sophia. We travel often, love exploring new places, and appreciate hosts who make a stay feel comfortable and effortless — so that’s exactly the experience we aim to create for our guests.

Why they chose this property

Beaufort has a charm all its own. The historic streets, moss-draped oak trees, waterfront views, and friendly community make it one of the most beautiful and peaceful areas in the Lowcountry.
We chose this neighborhood because it offers the perfect blend of relaxation and convenience. You’re close to great dining, local shops, downtown Beaufort, and quick day trips to Hunting Island, St. Helena Island, and Port Royal. It’s the kind of place where you instantly feel at ease — and it’s exactly the sort of spot we love returning to ourselves.

What makes this property unique

Our Beaufort property is designed to feel like a true retreat. We’ve put care into creating a warm, welcoming space with thoughtful touches that make settling in easy — whether you’re here for a weekend getaway or a longer stay.
From comfortable, relaxed living areas to the peaceful surroundings, it’s a place where you can unwind, recharge, and enjoy everything the Lowcountry has to offer. As travelers ourselves, we’ve built the kind of stay we’d want to walk int
