Location, Location!

My family and I stayed for two nights here for my nephew’s MCRD graduation and this location was perfect! We were about 10 minutes from Parris Island and 5 minutes from Beaufort; after the graduation we enjoyed visiting the town of Beaufort (Bay Street and the waterfront) along with the cypress wetlands which were about a mile from the house. The host was very responsive and we enjoyed our stay. I would suggest taking a fan if you’re hot natured for the two spare rooms but the master bedroom was nice and cool.

Great house close to Parris Island

After being in the car over 14 hours, this house was perfect for our short trip to Beaufort. Our kids loved the yard to run around in. The house gave us a lot more space than a hotel to spread out and rest. I do wish we were staying longer to explore more of the area. If we ever come back to Beaufort we will come back to this home - highly recommend!

Perfect for attending MCRD graduation!

This property was perfect for our trip down to attend my son's MCRD boot camp graduation. We had six adults that included an elderly person that has to use mobility aides. The house was perfect for our needs since it was all one level and it's so close to the base. I contacted the owner beforehand and she was gracious enough to let us leave a couple of cars at the house during the day so that we could consolidate vehicles when we were attending the graduation events. Communication with her was fantastic! The check in and check out processes were super simple which made everything smooth and stress free.

Quiet, good WiFi

My husband and I are digital nomads, and we spent two weeks at Low Country Gump House. LCGH is in a quiet, simple neighborhood with simple houses, most well maintained. The beds were comfortable and the WiFi was great. The kitchen, however, was very basic, which was somewhat frustrating as we both usually enjoy cooking. That said, the location was good for us - an easy walk to hop on the Spanish Moss Trail and a short drive to shops and historic sites. In addition to the terrific restaurant recommendations that Laura provided, we also highly recommend Corner Perk, which is located in a historic building in a cute little area of Port Royal and offers way more than great coffee! Lastly, when we had an issue or question, Laura was super responsive.
