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!

The Bee’s Knees!
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!
Great Guest House, walking distance to shops and Food. A

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.

Beautiful Historic Stay
We enjoyed the location, walking distance to so many things. Warm, comfortable home with all you need. The beds were a bit too firm. We loved the rocking on the front porch. Wonderful experience!
We had a wonderful weekend in Beaufort staying at the Guest House. We walked to restaurants and marina where we took the ferry to the islands and beaches around.
The home was lovely, perfect for two people. It was very clean, comfortable, with beautiful interior decoration, in a great location.
