About this property

Heart of Historic Bluffton BEST LOCATION, Charming Cottage THIS IS THE ONE

This quaint cottage is in the heart of it all. Close to family-friendly activities and nightlife, located on the main street of Bluffton SC on CALHOUN STREET. Park off street (1) space provided and walk everywhere. 2 blocks to the town dock and Church of the Cross too. There is a park behind the home as well as one block away. The home sits on 1/2 an acre of land with amazing oak trees.

Featuring a renovated bathroom, new living room couch that folds out into an extra bed, full kitchen with EVERYTHING including coffee maker, dishwasher, major appliances and ICE. Grill is provided along with access to laundry if needed. There’s a carport too if additional space is needed (shared with accessory unit).

Park and walk to restaurants, shops, bars and galleries. Located in the heart of Bluffton, 2 blocks to the town dock and the famous Church of the Cross. All of the pictures you see is within steps from the home. It's truly a one of a kind space and location.

You’ll love my place because of the light, the comfy beds and coziness of this home. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travelers, families (with kids), and furry friends (pets).

Fast WIFI and helpful property managers on call.

Try the Pearl next door for amazing dinner and drinks, or have breakfast at the Cottage across the street or coffee at Corner Perk at the top of the street. At the end of the street, just 3 blocks away, is the town dock great for watching sunsets. Park once and enjoy Bluffton and the lowcountry. 10 minutes to Hilton Head, 30 to Savannah or Beaufort, come and explore. Be sure to check out the Farmer's Market on Thursdays! We are happy to host you.

We also have a Tesla charging station in the garage for your convenience.

Enjoy!

Great location! A lot of restaurants that are amazing and in walking distance. House location trumps any of the small flaws of the house IMO.

Check-in was easy. The cottage was located in Old Bluffton. Easily accessible to restaurants, the river and public pier, art galleries, shops, and the farmer's market. Kitchen facilities allowed us to prepare several meals for family. Beds were comfortable. Off street parking was great. Our host promptly answered questions regarding laundry facilities, extra night's stay, and TV accessibility. Met a lot of friendly people.

Very quaint little cottage had everything we needed for a short reunion with our granddaughter who was visiting her mom locally. Plenty of room in each area for vacation needs and "entertaining". The grill was great, master bed (2nd bedroom not used) & living area furniture comfy and well-equipped kitchen/dining area. Easy entry and check out. Our main focus was family time inside, not the sights of Bluffton, and we were all very comfortable. Kevin was very responsive to all communication.

All of the other places I have rented had beach towels, beach chairs etc. For the price I expected thos things plus more utensils, and towels. There was no warm feeling, I can tell its more of a bachelor pad not a vacation rental. It is overpriced. But the owner responded to my emails on a timely manner and it was clean. It is at least 300.00 over priced.

Old house

Location is good. Lighting and outlets in the house are terrible. Cannot do serious work on computers. Needs to have a Keurig coffeemaker not old fashioned coffee pot - we had to get our own maker. If more than one vehicle, parking must be in the street as the tenant parking makes it difficult. Owner very responsive and answers questions quickly
