Beauty in Bluffton

We were looking for a pet-friendly, quiet place to stay while visiting family, and this home delivered! Located steps away from a park meant our pup was very happy. The home was clean and comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would highly recommend it to others.

The property was just as expected, very clean and welcoming. Selena communicated tirelessly and even let us know that the property was ready a little ahead of schedule. The bed was comfy with a memory foam topper that did its magic as soon as we settled in. Perfect location with park, dog park, and lovely sidewalks everywhere for walking. We had an easy stroll for breakfast at Sippin Pig with our dog on their outdoor porch. Plenty of room to pop up our dog's crate so she stayed safe while we were away. Highly recommend and encourage other pet owners to adhere to the no pets on furniture policy to keep this spot the lovely gem it is for everyone.

Just Like HOME

I stayed over the 4th of July. What a great place .VERY CLEAN and nicely decorated.!! . Five minutes to outlets, 15 to Hilton Head Island, and blocks away from the historic Town of Blufton that has great restaurants.( Mexican and Hog Head Kitchen and Wine Bar.) The backyard was wonderful for evening sittings. The kitchen has what you need and ICE in the freezer waiting for drinks.The neighborhood is quiet, neighbors were friendly, and I felt very safe coming back after midnight walking the streets. There is also a beautiful park across the street. The property manager attended to a need ASAP when I thought a fan didn't work. She resolved the concern. I am looking forward to renting again.
