Great stay
We enjoyed our stay! House was clean and comfortable and the neighborhood was quiet. I wish we would've allotted more time to spend in Beaufort. We spent most of our time in Charleston and Savannah, but it looked like there were places I would've liked to explore near the house. Cute downtown area and close to the water.

Wonderful House, Great Stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our six-week stay at Kelsey's Beaufort Bungalow. The location was terrific: a 10-minute walk to downtown Beaufort on the river, a short distance to the Spanish Moss (Walking/Biking) Trail, and easy access by car to the amazing Port Royal Farmer's Market and Cypress Wetlands Trail. We were minutes from grocery stores and restaurants. A SC state park entry pass was provided by Kelsey, allowing free access to nearby Hunting Island State Park, a local treasure. The kitchen was well-equipped with dishes, cooking utensils, and basic supplies, enabling us to easily prepare meals at home. All of the large and small appliances that we used were in good working condition. The house was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed our sunny mornings on the front porch swing and our afternoons on the sunny backyard deck and the shady screened-in porch. We were thoughtfully greeted with wine and snacks when we arrived. Kelsey provided timely and complete responses to our various inquiries. We quickly settled into our "home away from home". We highly recommend this property. We will be returning next year!

Beaufort vacation
We had a wonderful stay at Kelsey’s cottage, the cottage itself was super cute, very spacious and extremely cozy, the kitchen has everything we could need, the bedrooms were large and comfy, the master bathroom had a beautiful blue tile, the entire cottage was inviting, we felt at home. The cottage is walking distance to downtown and the Spanish moss trail is really close. The backyard is huge and there is even a shed to use (where we stored our bikes). We were happy to come back to the cottage after visiting Beaufort and the area. We wish we could have stayed longer. Neighbor’s dogs and cat were very friendly and greeted us when we arrived. Highly recommended this place! Kelsey was very easy to communicate with, very responsive and gave plenty of useful information. Such a great host and place!

Wonderful trip to Beaufort
My wife and I recently stayed here for a week in October/November. The house is updated and is located in a quiet neighborhood conveniently located close to town only 5 minutes away from restaurants, shops, and historical areas. We rented bikes and rode from there into town and all over via the Spanish Moss Trail which is only a few blocks away from the house. The house was super clean and neat with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The owner was great to work with and communicative. We had such a great time exploring the area and just relaxing on the front porch swing that we decided to stay another night to which the owner was very accommodating since there was not anybody scheduled for our original departure date. We were able to extend our stay and glad we did. We will definitely stay here again when we return to the area.

Great place for Marine Graduation
This house was a great place to stay for our Marine's graduation from boot camp. The house was very clean. Beds were super comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet and very safe. Close to shopping and restaurants. Only 15 minutes to Parris Island. Take advantage of the pass to Hunting beach. It is beautiful and worth the 30 minute drive. If we are ever back in the Beaufort area we would stay here again!

Perfect place
We needed a place to stay close to Parris Island for our Marine's graduation. This bungalow had rooms and beds for everyone, it was exactly what we needed! Luckily it was well stocked, we had forgotten some basic items but to my surprise the home had everything we needed and more. If I'm ever in the area for another graduation I will be booking this bungalow again!

We made a wonderful choice when we reserved this home.
The cottage is charming and it has anything you could possibly need. The owners thought of everything you might need, or did not know that you did need some item. It is at this house. Very clean, nicely appointed. Neighborhood is pleasant and quiet. We walked to the downtown and it was a wonderful walk, passing friendly folks, beautiful homes and friendly pets. Then we got to walk along the bay. Would absolutely recommend a stay in this home.

Better than Advertised
There was no detail left to be considered. The decor was comfy and cozy, with local pieces mixed in. This place had EVERYTHING you could possibly need (I am short and there was even a step stool next to the bed as it was tall). They had snack and water available, a fantastic book with things to do in the area, plenty of linens...everything, really. I will stay at one of these properties again in a heartbeat.

Weekend Stay
We absolutely fell in love with this place. It was clean, beautifully decorated and had every amenity you could think of and then some. Beautiful private back yard in a quiet neighborhood. Perfectly located and not too far from downtown and surrounding area. Kelsey provided a very informative binder of things to do, places to visit, restaurants, cab companies etc.. we hated to leave. We travel a good bit and this is one of the nicest VRBOs we have stayed in. It is a keeper. We will definitely be renting this place again when we come back to visit. Kudos to Kelsey!

Perfect Beaufort Biking Base
We went to Beaufort primarily to bike the Spanish Moss Trail and this house was perfect for our stay. It was a short ride (maybe 3 blocks) on quiet neighborhood streets to the Depot St trailhead which is almost the exact center of the trail. The carport provided a good place to store our bikes out of the weather. The location is just a few minutes drive from all the sights and activities of the Beaufort area, as well as neighboring towns like Port Royal. The off-street parking was adequate for our 3 vehicles. And the neighborhood was very quiet. Everything in the house was exactly as advertised. A basic supply of many necessities was provided such as dishwashing and dishwasher detergent, soaps and shampoos, and even Keurig cups. I would definitely recommend this place!

Delightful ranch with a comfortable layout
The Bungalow by the bay was such a lovely place to enjoy our family time together. Our son graduated from the Marine corps and it was a very comfortable place to unwind from the ceremonies. The layout is cozy and allows enough space for everyone to relax and still be present. Kelsey was great with communication and the home was well appointed with everything you would need for a relaxing time away from home.

Charming bungalow
The bungalow is adorable and the amenities are a plenty. The owner is super communicative.If you have young children you would need to watch out for all the decorations which are placed all over the living room. If you have mobility issues this house is not the best for you. The family room is in the back with huge tv with only steaming capabilities....they have many that are free with the house. Couples and families with older kids will find this place great.
