I can’t say enough great things about the entire experience! Amazing location, beautiful landscape, and a gorgeous cottage that was so clean and so welcoming! Our hosts were very welcoming, friendly and communicative! We found our new vacation spot from here on out! 5/5 STARS!!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Cute and well maintained home! The location was perfect and we truly enjoyed our stay!

Excellent stay! Great location. Steve and Barbara are wonderful hosts. The cottage is perfect for 2! One of our fav VRBOs! Thanks Steve and Barbara. We’ll be back!!

The cottage was OUTSTANDING! It was exactly as listed. The cottage had everything you could ever need. It was beautifully decorated and plenty of room for the two of us. It was in a nice quiet neighborhood near plenty of restaurants, downtown Beaufort, a boat launch and a nice park at the end of the street. Our host, Barbara was easy to reach with any questions. She was very accommodating. We hope to return soon! Ann & Keith

Can't say enough about our stay. Beautiful clean great location excellent price and value and wonderful hosts. Don't even think about this one just do it.

Barbara was an awesome host. Everything was so pristine and clean. Close to shopping and eating. We absolutely loved it and will return. She left a surprise bottle of wine for us to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary with❤️

First of all…. The tree out front!! 😍😍😍 Absolutely stunning!!! We had a super short visit, but our stay was wonderful! We walked to Lady’s Island Dockside both nights for dinner. The food was A+!! You better not be afraid of the dark though, because the walk home was dark, but neat under the glow of the moon. The owners of the cottage take very good care of their place. Thank you again for sharing it with us! We will recommend it.

The cottage is a sweet, comfortable and relaxing place to stay. We will definitely stay there again.

The cottage is a great place to stay. Fully stocked. Nicely decorated. Quiet neighborhood. Perfect for two people.

Great location coming in for a Marine graduation. This cottage was perfect! 5 stars. Barbara was the best host. Her cottage has a stocked kitchen and even bathroom items you may have forgotten at home. Would love to return!

The house was easily accessible, wonderfully clean and quite cozy! The hosts were friendly and welcoming! The experience on a whole was fabulous and we can’t wait to return!

Oak Cottage was a home away from home. The kitchen was completed stocked with everything you might need to make a meal. The bed was very comfortable and as well as the other furnishings. Barbara and Steve were great hosts. We enjoyed exploring the area. We plan to return in the near future.

The cottage is perfect for a couple, clean, comfortable, convenient. The neighborhood is beautiful and the house has everything a couple needs. It’s far enough from town to be quiet, but close enough to walk to shopping, food, and the beautiful views around Beaufort! Our hosts were very accommodating and delightful people. Awesome experience!

This VRBO property is one of the best short-term rentals that I've experienced. Everything is spotless; the owner even launders blankets for each use and disinfects all touch points. The cottage is decorated in soothing tones and with a variety of vintage landscape and seascape watercolors. The privacy is unparalleled, and believe me, it's far better to be across the short bridge from downtown than in the midst of a great deal of tourist traffic. That said, everything you might want to visit is easily accessible. I had a delightful stay in Barb's cottage.

Wonderful stay. Will be back. Close to everything.

Very clean and convenient

The owners have done a spectacular job renovating this cottage for vacation rentals. One's first reaction upon entering is "Wow, how beautiful." A one-bedroom cottage with 1 1/2 baths, wholly outfitted kitchen, washer-dryer, and comfortable dining and living room areas. We kept remarking on the attention to detail, from dishes and flatware to the rain shower in the bathroom. Park right outside the front door under a beautiful live oak tree, on a lovely street with a live oak canopy. Great location on Lady's Island, just across the river from the City of Beauford. Highly recommended!

We wanted to get a feel for living in the area. Live Oaks is new and freshly appointed. We shopped locally at Food Lion to have breakfast and dinners in the cottage. We packed picnic lunches to enjoy local parks and walk on the Spanish Moss Trail. Steps outside the cottage door, Whitehall Park provides an easy running route over the bridge to downtown Beaufort. There are many thoughtful details in the cottage. Barb was an excellent host and responsive timely with all details for a.perfect stay. This rental was one of the best we have visited.

What a special place. So new and clean and in a great location. We’d definitely come back for a longer stay next year.

My husband and I were at this sweet cottage for 3 weeks during the winter. We can’t say enough positive things about it. It was beautifully decorated, and very clean. The manual had a lot of information about local places, and we enjoyed all the recommendations. It was close enough to town, yet very private and peaceful. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at your place, exploring Beaufort and the surrounding area. Thankyou Barbara and Steve

This was my second visit to Beaufort and I was so excited to find this bungalow for my stay. I was there for a wedding further out on St. Helena Island and I wanted to revisit Savannah and Charleston while there - Perfect location! I was traveling by myself and the cottage was a great size. I was immediately taken with the outside - that lovely live oak tree with the spanish moss and uplighting - lovely. The cottage is so bright, clean, and well equipped. Great bedding and I LOVED the way everything is labeled. No fumbling to figure out which switch operated what. The hosts, who live in the house behind the cottage, were quick to respond and made check in/check out easy. Grocery stores and restaurants are close by and while you could walk across the bridge into Beaufort, the weather wasn't really conducive to that. Maybe next time! And if you have time, drive further out the Island and explore - nice trails and places to eat. I especially love Gullah Grub out in the Gullah community!

Everything about this cottage was great. The owners were nice and attentive and the cottage was clean with everything you need right there. It’s the perfect location to get to all of the areas to visit, port royal, downtown Beaufort, hunting island, etc. everything was 10-15 mins away at most. Hunting island may be a littler further but not by much. We highly recommend this place. We will definitely book this place every time we visit.

This cottage has everything that you need from hair dryers to coffee. I has plates, bowls, glasses, cups etc. We loved it and we will return. Its very clean.

like home

Couldn’t have found a better place to stay! We were close to everything we wanted to see and do. This home was very clean and well-furnished, bed was very comfortable, and the kitchen had everything needed. We would definitely stay here again!

This quaint little cottage is perfect size for a solo traveler or a couple looking to get away. There is a small storage area attached to the building so you can keep things outside of the living area versus seeing the clutter inside! Quick drive time to downtown and several areas on Lady's Island.

A most beautiful upscale cottage with all the extra amenities you can imagine! Situated behind a large moss-laden oak that is lit at night, this rental was perfect for our 5th anniversary getaway. The extra tall ceilings made it seem much more spacious with all overhead fans being controlled remotely. All cabinets and switches were labeled and the kitchen was fully stocked. The bed was very comfortable though we really missed our king size. The owners were most accommodating, even greeting us upon arrival to help unpack the car. They even left a nice bottle of champagne, with flutes and a handwritten, congratulatory note chilling in the fridge. What a most thoughtful unexpected surprise! The location itself was perfect as it was less than five minutes to the Old Point and Bay Street restaurants & shopping. Also, it was only 8-10 minutes to everywhere as we “island hopped” in all directions. We can not say enough good about our hosts, Barbara & Steve. We will definitely stay here the next time we visit lovely Beaufort and we highly recommend this property!

Only one word describes this property and that is PERFECT....everything you will ever need for your stay is there... restaurants and downtown are within easy walking distance...will definitely be returning. Host is an absolute delight....

We throughly enjoyed staying at this cottage. Could not have asked for a better location! Super clean and fully stocked with your essential needs. The host left no stone unturned when making sure the guests have the best experience! We will definitely be coming back again!

Great location, great place to stay! Everything you need all in one spot. When the spice rack includes pink salt I'm pretty sure it should be considered "all inclusive"! We've recently had family move to Beaufort and we're in Texas. They've got a big family so this will be our home away from home (Austin) when we visit.

The cottage is centrally located between Beaufort and the islands. Anything one would want or need as far as provisions etc., is within a short walk/drive. Cottage is beautiful and super clean. More amenities than you could imagine. Everything from bathrobes, laundry supplies, cooking supplies like spices and utensils, to beach supplies. There is ample closet space and more than enough hangers. All the tech and electronics were simple to navigate. Hosts Barb and Steve were awesome. Their handbook for the stay was clear and had everything spelled out as well as restaurant menus and entertainment suggestions. They’ve got it down to a science. Definitely ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!
