Your littles will adore eating at the 4-seat bar at the kitchen island while you can savor the 6-chair dining table, or head out to the handsome attached screened patio room to enjoy coffee or beverages.

Downstairs in the garage you'll find a variety of beach gear: (completely supplied at beginning of season--contents will vary!), sand toys & shell bags, a beach wagon, beach chairs, and six bicycles (3 adult and 3 kid sized) for you to enjoy on the island. We do our best to keep all items in good working order but exact garage items can vary due to use and salt air! A separate refrigerator/freezer in the garage is handy for storing drinks for your stay. 6-seat golf cart (leased through Beaufort carts) will be ready and waiting for you on arrival.

Strategies to get the perfect Beaufort, SC vacation home experience:

Finding the best rental home value:

• Reserve your rental home in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• In the Beaufort, SC area, The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked early. Reserving your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers frequently offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Often, property management companies supply Beaufort, SC area visitor guide magazines which will include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Beaufort, SC area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning and choosing the best Beaufort, SC rental home:

• First and foremost, have your group agree to a vacation week and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group requires. New rental, center island, 6 seat golf cart included has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, reach out to the property manager before you reserve the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Does your family require unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or charges might be applied to your invoice.

Know before you go:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your smartphone.
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your stay, inspect the property for any problem areas during arrival. Call the host right away to document your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent a lot of issues.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often an excellent resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let thieves spoil your family vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on great feedback to stimulate more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
