Labor Day Weekend at Templeton's

We loved our stay so much last year that we made sure we came back and booked Templeton's again. We love the cleanliness of the property and the ease of dealing with the host. The cabin has everything we need. Cannot wait to be back on Daufuskie again!

A great dog-friendly cottage with all you need to cook and relax. The tree-canopy view is a plus. Jay was super responsive. Highly recommend.

Loved Daufuskie & the Templeton Cottage

The Templeton Cottage was the perfect weekend rental for our boat trip from Charleston. Communication was excellent and the house was well-appointed with everything we needed and more. We can't wait to come back.

Lovely cottage

Thia was a perfect place to get away to! The cottage was clean and surprisingly stocked with anyrhing we needed. The porch off the living room made you feel like you were sitting in a treehouse! 100% would recommend staying here while visiting Daufuskie.

Family Vacation

We’ve stayed at Templeton Cottage a few times. It’s always very quiet and very relaxing. We love that it’s tucked away in the woods, and my wife is an avid bird watcher and we enjoy sitting on the upper back deck and looking out over the wetland and birdwatching. It’s close to the beach and tucked away just perfectly.

Amazing weekend getaway!

This house is even better than the pictures. It is the cleanest place I have ever rented, and the whole house is so well decorated and comfortable. It is a little off the beaten path, but we loved every second of our weekend here and will not hesitate to return! The owner was very quick to respond to any questions I had.
