There is 1 dedicated parking space labelled with the unit number for our home. Should you need a second parking space, any unnumbered space may be used, labeled V for Visitor.

NO ACCESS - the community next door to the right with which we share a driveway called the Village at Battery Creek is OFF LIMITS to guests. This includes the pool, the firepit, the dock, boardwalk area over the water and common areas. Please respect this rule as we don't want to upset the owners next door.

BOAT DOCK - this is private for the complex next door and is off limits behind a gated keypad. If you wish to bring a modest boat and trailer, you can park on site (limited availability) for a $40/Nighttime fee (Max 7 Days) BOOKED AND PAID IN ADVANCE before your arrival. You MUST let us know so we can check availability. There is a public boat launch - Parris Island Boat Landing - next door.

You have full access to the condo. The pool, fire pit, dock, boardwalk area over the water and common areas next door are off-limits as they belong to the community next door- the Village at Battery Creek.

Please note you are on the first floor and there is another unit above you. It is possible you may hear noises from time to time, but everybody is very respectful here.

Vacation rental tips and tricks:

Getting the best rental value:

• The sooner your group can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved early. Reserving your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of SC. To get the best value, shift your trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warm weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• Some property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guides have coupons for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Planning and picking the bestrental:

• Select dates and budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Beaufort's Blue Heron Hideaway on Battery Creek has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually accessible online. If not, email or call the property manager before you book the rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You'll need to determine what bed configuration is right for your family.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or charges applied to your contract.
• If there's a specific Beaufort, SC attraction you are enamored with, keep an eye out for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking

Considerations for your stay:

• Store the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent many issues.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let crooks ruin your holiday.
• Upon arrival, make note of any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently 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?
• At departure, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't forget anything. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a wonderful time? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
