Everything in the house felt brand new and worked perfectly. It was quiet at night and the mattresses were excellent. We didn’t use the backyard extensively but the fire pit, lighting and chairs were great. Highly recommend. It’s an excellent value.

Terry's place was what we needed, and so much more, for a coworker and I for the week while traveling for work. The house is exceptionally clean, roomy and very welcoming. It had everything we needed, clear instructions and guidance on procedures for checking in and out, extra little touches everywhere all while keeping the home simple and beautifully decorated. We were close to everything we needed yet in a very quiet and quaint neighborhood. Terry was super nice and very quick to respond to any questions that we had. I cannot say enough nice things about Terry's place, we simply enjoyed our stay there and decided this is our new favorite spot in Beaufort. 5 & Highly recommended!!

We just love this house! It is perfect for our stay when a coworker and I have to work in the Beaufort area. Terry has stocked with everything that we need, the house is adorably decorated, and is very convenient to shopping, working, and adventures. This was our second time here and is definitely at the TOP of our list for the Beaufort area. Terry is very responsive and the price was inline with our work budget. Definitely a 5. We will be here again if we have to work in the area. Thanks Terry for yet another wonderful and welcoming stay!

Conveniently located to all things Beaufort. Home was tidy n clean. No shortage of kitchen supplies, or bedding. Very quiet neighbors and neighborhood. Very attentive host. If and when you visit Beaufort, or the surrounding area, do yourself a favor and think about staying in this cozy little home. You'll be glad you did.Almost forgot to mention. The backyard is a very nice size. Can easily entertain without feeling cramped.

Host profile image
We are from Edgefield SC and have been visiting the low country 3 times a year for the last 5 yrs. My wife loves the water and the coastal life and we decided to move here for retirement so we were able to purchase land and are making plans to build within 2yrs. Being in the real estate business we wanted to offer a short term rental for everyone to experience the beautiful amazing low country.
