Updated Guest House in Beaufort Historic District--Walkable to Front Street!

Cozy, private, redecorated guest cottage just three blocks from Front Street! The former studio footprint of the cottage was expanded in 2024 to add a twin-bedded bedroom! Clean and modern with a kitchenette and a large bathroom with shower. The cottage sleeps two in twin beds under a vaulted ceiling. The kitchenette contains a sink, microwave, under-counter fridge, K-cup coffee maker and toaster oven. The house has its own porch so you can sit in the rockers and enjoy the lovely, quiet neighborhood, just a short walk from all the shops and restaurants on the waterfront. Located behind the owner's house. For the comfort of our guests, this is a strictly nonsmoking property. No pets allowed.

It was lovely. I wish it had more utensils in the kitchen like a small knife, a wine bottle opener, and real coffee mugs and glasses.

We had a delightful stay at the Updated Guest House. The reservation process was easy peasy. Check-in and check-out could not have been any easier. The guest house is beautiful, comfortable, in a convenient location, and has all the amenities one would expect. Thank you for sharing your charming cottage with us!

Cozy guest house

Great guest house in a quiet, safe and beautiful neighborhood. Nice cozy space for my teen and me and it was was immaculately clean. We enjoyed sitting out on the porch and walking to the farmers market and Front Street. Communication with the hosts was easy and directions were clear. We will be back again!

Great for a single person

As a single person doing a dive trip with Discovery Diving the location was perfect. I walked to the dive center in the mornings and downtown for food. There was coffee and mini fridge but probably not a place to cook meals. The day bed is fine for a single and possible for a honeymooning couple but a bit small otherwise. AC was amazing after a long day on the water. It was a great stay and I will definitely try to book again next trip.

Easy downtown Beaufort

Really great stay with Bruce and Margaret, the guest house was the perfect situation for myself and my 15 year-old son with the 2 single beds. Very quiet, very casual, and our hosts made sure our stay was just right! Super easy access to all the downtown Beaufort has to offer. The outdoor shower was a huge bonus!

I like being there it’s very close to the waterfront and downtown Beaufort walking distance.

It was great Just one thing the bugs on the porch but other than that, it was perfect. Nothing a little bug spray or bug zapper then take care of but the place was nice and clean. It was perfect. Looking forward being there next year.
