Lovely home, comfortable spaces and beds! Good hot water in the shower and a good amount of pots and pans in the kitchen. If you haven’t visited Beaufort, know that this is a fantastic location close to the shops and restaurants downtown and across from the Saturday farmer’s market location.

Beautiful Beaufort

Beaufort is a great place to spend a few days and our rental at "Starfish" gave us a way to explore and enjoy the area. The home is part of a four-unit "complex" located on a busy main road into the heart of the town. Road noise and traffic during the day was very noticeable but no issues for sleeping. "Starfish" is directly across from the county courthouse so we got to watch a wedding "on the grounds" and walk across the street to the farmer's market on Saturday. The house was clean and had the essentials for the trip. The front porch rockers and swing allow you ample space to set back, wave hello to the many walkers passing by, and the good spot for an afternoon nap.

Starfish Cottage in Beaufort

This is a lovely property. It is well-maintained, clean and comfortably furnished. We enjoyed walking to the waterfront, shops and restaurants. Turner St is a busy road and the traffic noise early in the morning and in the evening made conversation on the porch less pleasant. The mattress on the queen bed in the front bedroom was very soft. Other than those 2 things we enjoyed our stay very much and will plan to return.
