Located just over the bridge in the peaceful Fiddlers Cove area, this impressive 5 Bedroom, 4 bath home is located on a secluded cul-de-sac.  We are stringently pet-complimentary and nonsmoking, put in brand-new ductwork, and keep air filters changed regularly, making our home delightful for those with allergies.  The home comfortably sleeps 14 and is set up ideally for multiple families or groups of friends to gather together, with each bedroom having at least one Queen size bed. When you enter the home through the covered front porch, you will walk into the main living room with plenty of seating for sizable groups.  This flows into the well-appointed kitchen/dining area with a full-size refrigerator and separate drink refrigerator.  The enormous dining table seats nine, and a rolling island has a drop-leaf for additional prep space and two nesting stools for additional seating.  Off the living room, you will find a furnished screened-in porch with table and chairs. There are two bedrooms on the main level.  The primary suite has a king-size bed and extravagant en-suite bathroom with dual showerheads and separate jetted tub.  The guest bedroom on the main level has a queen-size bed and an attached bathroom with walk-in shower.  This bathroom is also accessible from the living space.  As you walk up the stairs, the "front" bedroom has a queen-size bed and reading nook for peaceful moments away from the group.  The middle upstairs bedroom is outfitted with a queen bed and twin-over-twin bunk beds as well as seating.  The final upstairs bedroom offers two additional queen-size beds. All the beds are extremely comfortable.  There are 2 full bathrooms to service the upper floor, both with tub and shower.  All rooms in the home as well as the porch are equipped with ceiling fans to supplement the air conditioning, for your comfort.  Two water heaters in the home ensure hot showers for all. 

Up to 4 private cars can be accommodated.  A 6-seat golf cart is supplied with your rental.  In the garage, you'll find a brand-new (2023) huge gas grille, ping-pong table, beach toys, and beach chairs. There is an outdoor shower with hot water accessible through the back of the garage to rinse off after a day at the beach. There is also a hose in front of the garage for a fast rinse.

In our peaceful area of the island, you'll often spy deer in the back yard while calming on the screened-in porch.  The home is just a quick bicycle or golf cart ride to the beach, pools, nature center, dining, and market.  Club/Amenity Cards are available at additional cost (see Conveniences tab for detail) and are required if you would like to use the resort pools, tennis, golf or eateries.  If you choose not to purchase the optional cards, you will still have access to the beaches, playgrounds (one just around the corner at Fiddler's Point), fishing/crabbing, and the on-island market and stores.  There is a Roku device on all 6 TVs in the home.  The home is equipped with blazing fast fiber Wifi, DVDs, board games, books, cards, and toys to round out your entertainment needs. The ping-pong table and beach chairs in the garage are also available for your use during your stay.

We are not available for commercial rental; personal use only.

Our top Vacation rental booking tips:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

• Book your Beaufort, SC vacation home in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites often offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Beaufort, SC area visitor guide magazines which often include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Beaufort, SC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Start by having your family select the best dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Doe-Sea-Doe Quiet Culdesac Golf Cart Included has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available on booking websites. If not, contact the property manager before you reserve your home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You will need to establish what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• If there's an individual Beaufort, SC destination you are enamored with, browse properties that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or could be applied to your agreement.

Advice for a fantastic stay:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your family's visit, make note of any problem areas upon check in. Speak to the host immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be an excellent source for finding the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're out! Don't let burglars spoil your family vacation.
• Double-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on good ratings to propel new reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
