Welcome to the Smalls-Nash Cottage, a beautiful 750 square foot historic home constructed by local hero Robert Smalls in 1890. The home is located in the heart of the Old Point neighborhood with moss-draped trees and rich history around every corner.

Constructed by Smalls in the backyard of the big Robert Smalls home, the original footprint was two rooms before it doubled in size in the early 1900s and is the floor plan you see today.

The Smalls-Nash Cottage remained in the Smalls family until 2006, and under keeping of the Beaufort Historic Foundation until 2020. Lovingly restored with modern amenities and amenities, the home has original preserved features including decorative double fireplaces with mantles and floor.

The one bedroom, one bathroom property highlights include a clawfoot tub with shower, a pull-out couch in the library for additional visitors and a tucked away, lush backyard with porch for calming in your own private getaway.

The kitchen is entirely outfitted with flatware, cookware, refrigerator with freezer, full size oven and a four burner electric cooktop. The home has private WiFi and Intelligent TV in the library, along with a desk in the living room for any remote workers. The backyard has seating for outdoor dinners, as well as a charcoal grille and there’s a Samsung washer-dryer in the shed out back.

You’re an 8 min. walk from downtown Beaufort’s eateries, galleries, shopping and waterfront park and only a 25 min. drive to the pristine beaches of Hunting Island State Park (the home has a car pass). And if you’re feeling additional adventurous, the culinary delights and sights of Charleston and Savannah are both a little over an hour away.

Tips to get the optimal rental home experience:

Getting the most from your budget:

  • To find the best value, consider shifting your family's Beaufort, SC vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer warm weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic.
  • In the Beaufort, SC area, The earlier your group can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation property 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
  • Some owners offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
  • Booking websites frequently offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
  • Often, rental management companies supply Beaufort, SC area visitor guides that include special deals, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Beaufort, SC visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Narrow your Search:

  • Start by having your group agree to vacation dates and a max budget.
  • Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Lovingly Restored 1890 Historic Cottage has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
  • Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the property management company before booking the rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
  • If there's an individual Beaufort, SC attraction you love, browse homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
  • Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking
  • Some properties allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the property management company about pet restrictions before booking.

More tips for your visit:

  • Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your smartphone.
  • Document any damages to the rental at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be very helpful if damages are assessed.
  • Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
  • Be respectful. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
  • Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
  • Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let crooks ruin your holiday.
  • Double-check the property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
  • Did you have a great stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
