About this cottage rental

Nestled in Beaufort, this lovely cottage for $165 per night is a fantastic choice for your next trip. Adorable cottage with all the comforts of home. Within walking distance to shopping, dining and the waterfront park of Beaufort, SC. I have been a Airbnb and VRBO host for over 10 years, I know what you want. This adorable home is a quirky little 2 bedroom 1 bath 1940's cottage located in the heart of Historic Downtown Beaufort. We have completed the addition of a beautiful, private, back yard patio. Duke Cottage is adjacent to our other property, Baby Charles, VRBO #2512260. We have our Health and Fitness Destination, #2577085, just 4 houses from the Spanish Moss Trail in the Hermitage Neighborhood. From this location, you can easily walk to our gorgeous waterfront park where there are lots of restaurants, galleries, and shops. There are porch swings lining the waterfront and it is a lovely place to sit and enjoy the ‘yacht parade’ on the Beaufort River, which is part of the Intracoastal Waterway. The Point neighborhood, filled with antebellum mansions used in the filming of many movies, is just 4 blocks to the east and a wonderful area for leisurely strolls. Inside the house there is central AC (and heat), as well as whisper quiet ceiling fans in the living room and both bedrooms. It has a cozy living room with a 40' Sony Bravia flat panel TV, HD cable and a DVD player. The kitchen is large and bright and has been completely redone with a glass top electric range, dishwasher, and refrigerator/freezer with ice maker, and a stacked washer/dryer unit. All cabinets and countertops are new, with a deep stainless steel sink and a pull down spray faucet. All pots, pans, dishes, glassware, flatware, and necessary gadgets are provided - as are small appliances like a coffee maker, toaster, blender, and a hand mixer. The kitchen is also stocked with staples such as salt and pepper, coffee, tea, and sugar - just to name some. We found a cute little 'nesting' table and 2 chairs for casual dining. The Dining Room has large windows on 2 walls. The dining table is round glass and seats 4 comfortably. There is a lovely curved metal chandelier for ambience. The master bedroom has a 2011 Sealy Posturepedic mattress and boxspring with 100% cotton high thread sheets and fluffy new pillows. We have switched out all of our Queen bedding to white European Duvet & Shams during the cooler months - IF we have any - so there will still be the high thread count sheets, but instead of our white cotton Matelassé Coverlets, now you will have a duvet cover and shams. These are washed and changed between guest. It's more work, but it as we discovered, it is a better sleeping experience! The second bedroom has a single bed with the same mattress, except that it is a twin. We tried having a trundle, but it is too cramped to be comfortable, so the house is limited to 3 guests. There is one bathroom, and while it isn't large, it is bright and fresh and comes stocked with plenty of 100% cotton fluffy towels. Amenities and a blow dryer are also provided. The private patio has a dining table with 4 chairs and an umbrella, and 2 chaise lounges and a huge umbrella at the other end. It is a lovely place to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Pets are allowed with prior approval and a refundable deposit. Please let me know what kind and size of pet you wish to bring so we can discuss it's appropriateness! *The yard is fenced, but PLEASE take responsibility for your pet, should it be approved. We cannot be responsible if you leave a gate or a door open of if a pet escapes.* All you have to bring is you and your clothing - we've got the rest! Oh - ALL of our properties are NON-SMOKING, inside and out. *NOTE: ALL OF OUR VRBO PROPERTIES ARE LEGAL SHORT TERM RENTALS IN THE CITY OF BEAUFORT, SC.

The Duke is a charming cottage on Old Town Beaufort. Within walking distance of many historic sites and the beautiful riverwalk. Everything we needed was provided at the cottage. Very comfortable in every way.

Duke cottage was an amazing stay! It was so sweet, quiet and vintage. We were in the perfect place to get to and from Parris Island for MCRD Graduation. The fenced in back yard was perfect for our two dogs. We even had some fighter jets fly over! A total of 4 went by at a low altitude! We could see everything! Definitly would consider going back again.

Home was very clean and well appointed. Bed was beautifully made and comfortable. Fenced back yard was great for our little Corgi. Duke Cottage was within walking distance to downtown and several eateries. One slight concern was that the tub drains extremely slow. The plunger that we found in a closet was useless(broken). This would not keep us from recommending the Duke Cottage, however. We would stay again!

We loved staying at the cottage. We were able to walk to virtually everything and the binder provided by the host was filled with great suggestions for food and excursions. The home was clean and well kept with a cute, fenced in backyard. We will definitely stay again.

We loved our stay. The place was super clean and the lights were even on for us when arrived. Neighbors are nice folks. The house is small but was all we needed for a great long weekend. It is evident that these folks know how to host. I hope they will have us back in the near future.
