    We loved our stay in this cottage. It is bright, airy, beautifully decorated, and very clean. We especially enjoyed the screened porch. The sunrises were just stunning. The beds were comfortable, and our communications with the management company were handled promptly. We hope to return!

    Nice house with gorgeous ocean views , in a very nice area on the island only thing that could have made it better was free swimming in the pool. now that would have been the icing on the cake.

    Steps away from the beach!! Waking up every morning to the ocean. I love Daufuskie and I love this spot in Melrose. Golf cart was to notch. I was glad to see that this year they upgraded the beach chairs, that helped us be more comfortable on the beach. Thank you for a great stay!
