Carriage House under Live Oaks In Historic Downtown Beaufort with Patio Garden

This lovely South Carolina unit, called Sweetgrass, is on the street level of the carriage house one block from the Beaufort River. It has two bedrooms, one queen bed and one small full bed and one bath (connected to each bedroom), hardwood floors throughout, cable TV, and a fully equipped kitchen. Relax on the covered porch and furnished patio surrounded by 100 year old oak trees draped with Spanish moss and lovely gardens.
This carriage house, recently brought back to life after many years of neglect, sits next to our home, Craven House. It truly is the best location in Beaufort, surrounded by stately mansions and rich history, allowing one to walk to restaurants, shops, museums and the waterfront park by the marina. It is an easy drive to Paris Island, the Sands beach in Port Royal and Hunting beach on the ocean.
Linens, including beach towels, are included. Household items/appliances include microwave, Kurig coffee maker, high-definition television, gas range and electric oven, cookware, disposal, fridge, pop-up toaster, internet connection, hairdryer, iron and board, dishes, tea, coffee, toilet paper, paper towels and soap.

Must be 25 yrs old + to rent. **Children under age 12 are not allowed.

The driveway provides one parking space for Sweet Grass guests. There is also close by parking on the street. We love pets, but are unable to accommodate them. Thank you for understanding.

Exceptional “southern charm” cottage apartment
We very much enjoyed this property! Perfect location in Beaufort’s historic district…close walking distance to town and waterfront park. This cottage has tasteful decor and furnishings…it’s better than the photos. The owner is a sweet southern lady that is very accommodating and easy to work with. Highly recommend.

Charming carriage house
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We were in the ground floor space of the charming two-story carriage house. The property was immaculately clean and fresh, and had everything we needed. The shaded porch had rocking chairs to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful gardens. The location is perfect - close to Bay Street in the heart of the historic district. We will stay again when we return to Beaufort!

Nice cottage downtown
We enjoyed staying at this property. The cottage had all that we needed: clean bathroom, kitchen, living space, bedroom. Within walking distance to downtown but as my husband has a disability we drove the 4-5 blocks to get to the shopping end of Bay St. Easy parking. Recommend.

Great Place to Stay
We had a great time! The property is beautiful, clean, and peaceful. A short walk into Beaufort to enjoy the sights, food, and shopping. They had a music festival that we enjoyed as well. Would definitely recommend the home and area to visit. Even though the house was close to the town, there were no noise issues. Thanks!!

Beautiful Beaufort
My sister and I were first timers in Beaufort, SC. We stayed at the gorgeous carriage house at the corner of Craven and Newcastle streets. The housing was more than we even expected—spotlessly clean, beautiful antique furnishings, comfortable beds, AC worked great, and beautifully appointed, including some of the host’s original artwork. We can’t wait to return!!

This was the cleanest, most accommodating VRBO home we’ve stayed in. We were in the lower part of the Carriage House. It was beautiful and quaint. Ellen and Mike leave you wanting for nothing. Everything you need and even the things you didn’t know you forgot were available. So easy to walk the 2 blocks to town. Would and hope to stay again.

Lovely property in a wonderful location
We spent a long weekend in the lower apartment at the Bluff. The space is beautiful and very comfortable, and our hosts were welcoming and gracious. We loved staying in a gorgeous downtown neighborhood just a short walk away from the waterfront and so many shops and great restaurants. Loved sitting on the porch and seeing the magnificent live oak trees all around us. I would highly recommend the Bluff.

Perfect location and lovely hosts!
My sister and I stayed in this pretty updated carriage house just a few blocks from town. We were on the first floor there is another separate 2 bedroom on the second floor. Each have their own front porch, with access to the patio shown in the photos. Ellen and her husband were very accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable as was the entire space with nice antique period furnishings. We will definitely book this carriage house again! Many thanks!

The property is awesome, the family that owns and operates it is wonderful and the location is perfect. Cannot say enough great things about our stay. The grounds are beautiful and the unit we stayed in is perfect for three adults. It is comfortable and completely equipped - everything with a perfect touch of "southern" hospitality. We loved it and would book it again and again and again!
