My wife and I really enjoyed our stay. We met Kurt there and he was very personable and helpful.

Daufuskie island in late March was a great place for us to visit. We enjoyed the quiet lifestyle, golf carts and the location was centrally located.

Amazing

Clean, comfortable and great for a family vacation. The owner was the coolest guy and did everything to make our stay great, including getting us a cot for our daughter. The beach was so close, great area for dogs in front and the golf carts were perfect. We were first timers to Daufuskie and weren’t sure how much would be provided, but they had shampoo, conditioner, soap, laundry detergent and dish soap as well as coffee and tea! We felt so welcomed and can’t wait to come back!!

Island Magic

I hosted a small, chill Bachelorette weekend for 6 here, and it was truly magical. The house is steps from the beach and the Beach Club with it’s lovely and perfectly placed shoreside pool. The house had everything we needed, including a golf cart to accommodate the whole party. That was key to our Dafuskie adventures and exploration. The back porch looks over a coastal creek and a wonderfully wild scene. We used the grill to cook out one night and enjoyed deviled crabs and low country boil curtesy of local legend Ernestine Smith another. Perfect. Tammy(out host) was quick to respond and an invaluable help during and leading up to our trip. She went above and beyond. And it made all the difference. I hope to return to Dafuskie soon and would absolutely book again.

Excellent, quiet beachfront house

This is the perfect place to go if you want a slower pace vacation. Getting to the island and getting equipped takes a little work and planning. We had to make ferry and ground transportation arrangements in advance, buy groceries, and pack lighter. However, all of the beach stuff we needed was at the house waiting for us. The house itself was lovely and a very short walk from the beach. There was a nice neighborhood pool for an extra cost. The property came with a golf cart and bikes, both of which we used liberally. I loved being able to bike with my kids and feel safe because there was barely any traffic at all. There were a few restaurants and stores and all of them had playgrounds for the kids. Mostly we played at the pool or beach or took bike rides. My kids also loved exploring in the golf cart. They even really enjoyed the experience of coming over on the ferry. Everyone we met was so nice and it was overall just a really fun week. The managers of this property were great and made sure we had everything we needed. It would have been great to be able to get a bike with training wheels for my younger son, but that wasn’t a big issue. My one tip to anyone staying at this house or Daufuskie for the first time is to bring bug spray. The mosquitos are real and we got itchy.

We had an excellent stay at this cottage in Daufuskie- Not only is the property super clean the owner Kurt was extremely friendly and helpful- he even stopped by to give us some tips on the island and things to do! The house was very well stocked with supplies (we brought our dogs and there was even supplies for them!) and the King sized bed had the most comfortable mattress! Definitely will stay here again!!! Thank you Kurt and Tammy for the great family vacation!

Great weekend on Daufuskie!

We were so impressed with this cottage on Daufuskie. For our family of four and two dogs, it was just what we needed - clean, spacious, great screened back porch, wonderfully appointed kitchen, easy access to the beach. The one issue we thought we had with one of the golf carts (which turned out to be user error, not even an issue!) was resolved literally within 10 minutes of sending the message to Tammy - and that was on a Saturday evening. We will stay again! Thank you for a great weekend!
