Okatie, South Carolina
Vintage River Cottage on 3 acres with view of the Okatie River. Ideally located halfway between Savannah, Beaufort and Bluffton...an easy drive to the Savannah/Hilton Head airport. The Lowcountry at its orginal best. Old live oaks, camellia forests, magnolias, a perfect location from which to explore the Lowcountry. This cottage is the original house on the property known as Cedar Bluff, and shares the 3 acres with the owners who live in main house steps away. Still private and quiet.
The cottage features a wonderful screened porch, hardwood floors, stone fireplace with gas logs, ceiling fans throughout. Dating from 1925, the cottage has lots of character that one would expect but with all the necessities like updated bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen, streaming TV, internet. There are only a handful of authentic Lowcountry River Cottages left: here is your opportunity to experience the Lowcountry at its best: comfortable, nestled among large oaks, pines, camellias and azaleas with a tidal river seen from the front porch.
Please be advised that there is no room for guests to keep a boat at the dock, with the exception of kayaks which are welcome.
The owners also offer a small log cabin in Western North Carolina near Cashiers, Glenville, Sylva, VRBO #300192

Isabella and Jerry are great hosts. They live in the main house about 50 feet away, yet we had complete quiet and privacy. The cottage is roomy. There are several places to sit and relax: we can sit on the back porch and watch the beautiful view of the river or sit on their cushy living room couch by the fire. Our black lab had plenty room to romp around. While we were there, we had trouble with the washer, and Isabella replaced it in 2 days. We would definitely stay again.
A magical place on a lovely tidal river with egrets flying & crickets at night. My husband and I along with our dog enjoyed walking to the pier, watching sunsets, & exploring the 5 acres of land. We also walked up the road and met the neighbors, who were friendly and helpful. Frankly, it’s hard to put into words the peace and beauty of this home. We can’t wait to return!
Lovely, historic cottage in a peaceful location on the river. The cottage was clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated. We loved the very large screened porch. With traffic it was about 20 min to outlets and historic downtown Bluffton and about 30 min to Hilton Head. The hosts made communication easy. We’d certainly stay again.
Very friendly, and the check in process was simple. She met us and showed us around upon our arrival. Beautiful Cottage
The cottage was a great place to stay. Centrally located to Hilton Head, Bluffton and Beauford. The cottage was well equipped, roomy, comfortable and very clean. The front, sceen in porch was a great spot for morning coffee or happy hour. The hosts, Isabella and Jerry were wonderful, always ensuring that everything was top-notch. Would definitely stay there again.
My husband and I stayed at the Okatee Cottage for 3 nights and it felt like home. The cottage is full of charm and beautifully maintained as well as very clean. The view of the Okatie River is lovely and the owners are happy to have you use their dock to sit out by the water. Our 2 dogs loved the large property! The owners, Isabelle and Jerry, live on the property and are extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the area. They really know how to treat their guests!
The place was wonderful and relaxing.
This location is so private and offers great views of the lake. Enjoyed walking our dog on the property and exploring nature.
Isabella and Jerry were excellent hosts. The cottage was beautiful, clean, and cozy. We really enjoyed stay here, and hope to make it back soon!
The house was perfect for my family vacation. This is a beautiful area with lots of nature just outside the back door (and front door, too). The cottage was beautiful, comfortable, and in a gorgeous location. Many thanks to the Reeves for making a stay a wonderful time.
