Perfect Couples Getaway

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely carriage house. It was professionally decorated, very comfortable, and clean. We have stayed here several time and we hope to go back again. It is close to Beaufort SC and Fripp Island SC which were our destinations. We always enjoy our stay at Birdfoot!

Carriage House Weekend

Loved this quaint Carriage house for a Wedding Guest Weekend on St Helena Island! It was close enough to Beaufort for shopping, but only minutes from the venue and Dataw Island where I hosted a luncheon. The amenities were great, and the property was beautiful! We would stay again!!

This is our second time staying here. By far one of the cleanest places we have ever stayed. Everything you need is here. Very convenient to downtown Beaufort, Port Royal and all that makes the Port Royal Sound area fun. Great place, we would recommend to anyone! Can’t wait to come back!

My wife and I recently stayed at the absolutely delightful property. I would recommend this property to anyone looking to visit the Beaufort, SC, area. This is the first VRBO/AB&B listed property we’ve rented that exceeded what was promised in the listing. If you’re looking for a quiet,convenient, comfortable and picturesque vacation rental; this is it! Thanks to our hosts, Chris and Lori for providing such a nice property that added to the enjoyment of our visit to this area of South Carolina.

Clean, decent location

Overall this was a very nice place for us to stay while visiting the area for our son’s graduation at Parris Island. I will say, I felt like the hosts could have been a bit more welcoming and I think the sink area in the bathroom could have been a bit cleaner along with the mirror in the bathroom. But overall it was fine for what we needed it for.

A Hidden Gem – We Loved Our Stay!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful carriage house during a recent wedding weekend. It was perfect for the two of us—very clean, modern, and thoughtfully decorated. The tall ceilings made the space feel open and airy, and the layout was just right for a couple. It truly felt like a home away from home. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and stylish place to stay!

Great place!

The house is very nice! Great location. Only thing is it’s not really a kitchenette. No stove or grill. Has a tiny fridge and a microwave. Not really any way to cook anything. Next time we will bring a skillet or hot plate to cook breakfast. We ate out for dinner, so not a problem for that.
