This 2 bedroom/2 bath cottage with hot tub - sleeps up to 6, and just a short ride to the beach! Features an indoor hot tub, and 2 kayaks are available to use.

Experience the seclusion and charm of an island paradise in coastal South Carolina. There is no bridge or causeway, so there are very few cars. Most use the public ferry or private boats to get on or off the island. Once on the island, golf carts and/or bicycles are the way to go.

This eclectic storybook cottage is located in the Historic District of Daufuskie Island, just minutes from one of the most secluded public beaches in America. Fish from the ocean shoreline or in the brackish marsh for sheepshead, croakers, whiting and more!

About the house itself: Quirky and comfortable, everything you need to feel at home is at your fingertips. This home features a bedroom and bath upstairs and downstairs, with two kitchens and two living areas, which is perfect for two families travelling together. Can sleep up to a total of 6.

The lower-level galley kitchen is equipped for everything you need for home-prepared meals, and the dining area seats 6 comfortably. Pocket doors provide the privacy for the lower master bedroom with a full-size bed, while the open floorplan of the upstairs bedroom features a queen-size bed and an additional futon.

The lower-level hot tub room and the upper-level deck both overlook an outdoor gazebo (great for a picnic lunch) and goldfish pond in the back yard. 600/50 Mbps Wi-Fi with Roku, Google Chrome and antenna television.

This cottage is non-smoking and no pets!

A washer and dryer is also available so you can pack lightly for an extended stay!

    The house was very nice and accommodating cozy place to spend a relaxing few days. The owners stayed in touch from reservation time to our departure. Everything was explained and easy to follow - this will be our place to stay when visiting Daufuskie Island. Dj

    Host was very responsive and had all information easily accessible. Although we did not use the kitchen, it was very well stocked. The house is very eclectic and in need of some maintenance and a good deep cleaning. The area of the island the house is located in is less than desirable.

    Great weekend on the island. A little shot from Freeport Marina, but super close to the beach and several amenities. Top notch!

    I visit the island a lot and currently purchased property to build on the island. I have always drove by this cute cottage and wanted to stay in it and when we found it on line I jumped in it to rent. It’s in a quiet peaceful part of the island that is just relaxing!!! Highly recommend owner was awesome to work with.

    We had such a great stay on the island. The only pesky thing was the sand gnats. But we'll definitely be back. Burke was super responsive and helpful. It was a very restful stay. Thank you guys!

    Pretty cottage in lovely wooded area conveniently located near county dock- 10 min ride to Coffee shop and beach area near Bloody Point. Nice to have 2 separate living areas which would work well for 2 families or kids. Cottage is well stocked with needed cooking items, beach towels etc. only suggestion is that outside back sitting area could use a refresh. Repairs and fresh coat of paint on gazebo and furniture- a sweep, pickup of broken items would help . Good window washing also- I suspect difficult to to clean during this “pollen season” but backyard and side area near door could use some TLC to make more inviting! We did appreciate good communication with host and detailed house instructions.

    My family of 5 had a wonderful time at the Storybook Cottage! It was stocked with everything we could need and then some. The owner was very quick to respond when I had a question. We loved the location and had great neighbors. We would definitely stay there again!

    Even when we can go anywhere in the world, we choose to go to Daufuskie Island. This time we got to spend a week! For the first time, we took the Sallie Ann Robinson tour - definitely worth the time and $$$. She brought us the Daufuskie historic stories from a 6th generation, first-hand point of view. School Grounds Coffee is a favorite meeting place with an amazing menu selection and friendly staff and patrons. We enjoy the authentic feel of the original school rooms there where Pat Conroy taught in 1969 and wrote about in The Water Is Wide. The beach walks were awesome and serene with a crystal clear ocean! Everyday ended in a relaxing hot tub dip.

    We really loved our stay here. We are obsessed with the island and this is located away from any “crowds”. Felt like we were surrounded by locals and it was so quiet/peaceful. I would love to stay here again and Burke was responsive every time. Hot tub is a major bonus and they had chairs we could use on the beach. House had great information on the island and its history, a map, and recommendations for food/sites to see.
