Check-in was easy. The cottage was located in Old Bluffton. Easily accessible to restaurants, the river and public pier, art galleries, shops, and the farmer's market. Kitchen facilities allowed us to prepare several meals for family. Beds were comfortable. Off street parking was great. Our host promptly answered questions regarding laundry facilities, extra night's stay, and TV accessibility. Met a lot of friendly people.

Very quaint little cottage had everything we needed for a short reunion with our granddaughter who was visiting her mom locally. Plenty of room in each area for vacation needs and "entertaining". The grill was great, master bed (2nd bedroom not used) & living area furniture comfy and well-equipped kitchen/dining area. Easy entry and check out. Our main focus was family time inside, not the sights of Bluffton, and we were all very comfortable. Kevin was very responsive to all communication.

All of the other places I have rented had beach towels, beach chairs etc. For the price I expected thos things plus more utensils, and towels. There was no warm feeling, I can tell its more of a bachelor pad not a vacation rental. It is overpriced. But the owner responded to my emails on a timely manner and it was clean. It is at least 300.00 over priced.
