Perfect Location
We stayed five nights at this lovely place. It is cozy and perfectly located to downtown. Super clean and we had everything we needed provided for us. Plenty of space for me and my wife. Downtown is really at most a five minute walk and the walk is rather nice. Definitely would stay here again. Oh. And just saying the people of this city are the nicest people on the planet ! Seriously!

Historical Charm and Style
This cottage is a GEM. It has historical significance that the owner has preserved beautifully. The artwork is an arrangement of original pieces painted by the owner who is a very talented portrait artist. So much thought and care has gone into the experience, from the pantry to the bathroom in terms of items to make a stay more comfortable and beautiful.It's both charming and historical, as well as modern and convenient.

The Bonny House is Bonnie indeed!
We booked the Bonny House to get away, rest, and regroup The property is beautiful. The house was spotless. Decorated in beautiful antiques. The furniture was comfortable and the amenities were plentiful. Our hosts Ellen and Mike are lovely people. We enjoyed getting to know them. The location of the property was walking distance to most everything. We experienced First Friday in Beaufort. That was fun and unexpected. There is lots to do. We had many great meals at the local eateries. And hope to return sometime. You will not be disappointed.
