Vacation Rental Description

This is Island life in the Carolinas at its best--a spacious ground- 
level home nestled under beautiful moss draped oaks within an old  
southern plantation on the coast outside Beaufort, South Carolina. A  
comfortable non-smoking home with an open plan suitable for a couple  
or family. NO STEPS inside or out! Hunting Island State Park and  
beach, just 5 minutes away, is a renowned tropical island, with  
lighthouse, great fishing pier, bathhouses, museum, and nature  
center. 
 
Recent renovation includes new wood flooring, appliances, and new  
furniture throughout (new mattresses!). Decor is "beachy" and  
suitable for children. Large, fully equipped kitchen with a Five  
Star gas stove. After a morning walk through the sand roads of the  
plantation, serve up a big breakfast, swim at the beach, boat, fish,  
sitesee, and complete the day with a seafood feast--often from your  
own catch!  
 
Located in a corner of the plantation on a dead end street with  
plenty of privacy and space for children to play. The surrounding  
century old oaks really give you a sense of the timelessness of this  
island.  
 
Enjoy tranquil, panoramic waterfront views of the marsh and creek,  
including beautiful sunsets and a million stars. You can fish, crab,  
shrimp, or just hang out in the hammock on the dock. For more  
excitement, bring a boat or rent our small boat to explore the creek  
and see more of the area and the wildlife. Frequently, dolphins,  
osprey, pelicans, deer, otter, and the occasional sea turtle are  
seen from the dock or from your own boat. A short ride down the deep  
water creek leads you to St. Helena Sound, the Intercoastal  
Waterway, or the ACE Basin marine reserve.  
 
Enjoy this restful retreat offering the art, cuisine, and shopping  
of historical Beaufort, South Carolina, in the setting where the  
movie "Forrest Gump" was filmed. Savannah, Hilton Head, Edisto, and  
Charleston are easy day trips from here. Go all you want, then  
return to this haven within the plantation.
