Carriage House under Live Oaks In Historic Downtown Beaufort with Patio Garden

It has two bedrooms, one queen bed and one small full bed and one bath (connected to each bedroom), hardwood floors throughout, cable TV, and a fully equipped kitchen. Relax on the covered porch and furnished patio surrounded by 100 year old oak trees draped with Spanish moss and lovely gardens.
This carriage house, recently brought back to life after many years of neglect, sits next to our home, Craven House. It truly is the best location in Beaufort, surrounded by stately mansions and rich history, allowing one to walk to restaurants, shops, museums and the waterfront park by the marina. It is an easy drive to Paris Island, the Sands beach in Port Royal and Hunting beach on the ocean.

Exceptional charming Beaufort stay

Lovely accommodations. Everything we needed, including items we didn’t know we would need... Such as beach tote and beach towels. Location provided the opportunity to walk and stroll through downtown Beaufort. Being able to stay in this historic area made our trip very special. It felt like home. Thank you for your hospitality. You have a truly special place.
