The Evan Cottage

The Evan Cottage was built in 2013 and is the perfect cozy spot for your “unplugged” Daufuskie adventure! This 1 bedroom/1 full bath bungalow is fully furnished with modern amenities. Our massive covered front porch boasts a ceiling fan and plenty of space for outdoor dining and people watching! A Weber grill and fire pit complete your rustic experience. Enjoy a romantic couples weekend or an affordable vacation with your young family comfortably in our home.

Centrally located in the heart of the Historic District, the cottage is only a short walk to the Historic First Union African Baptist Church and Mary Fields School made famous by the book, "The Water is Wide" and movie "Conrack." The beach is 2 miles away via a peaceful 10 minute golf cart ride. Other nearby attractions include Freeport Marina, The General Store, Daufuskie Crab Company, D’Fuskies, The Rum Distillery, the Daufuskie Community Farm, Wine and Woodworks, The Iron Fish, and more! Evan Cottage is centrally located to all Daufuskie Island has to offer!

There are no passenger vehicles on Daufuskie Island. All visitors must access the island by personal watercraft or ferry service. There is no bridge and ferries do not allow cars. Expect an "unplugged" vacation with no WiFi and limited antennae cable, although you will have cell phone service and can use your data plan for Internet access if absolutely necessary. This is true island life!

If you are booking last minute in the busy summer season, you may want to check with the golf cart rental companies for availability first, prior to booking. We do not offer a refund if you cancel within two weeks of your reservation.

Amazing cottage!
We seriously could sit here all day and talk about how amazing our stay was. The Evan Cottage was very clean, cute, quiet, and overall perfect for our little family of four. It has everything we ever needed during our stay! Highly recommend, and I could see us booking to stay there again in the future!!

1 bedroom Daufuskie Island cottage.
We stayed here while we volunteered for a 100 mile race on the island. The rental had everything we needed to be comfortable throughout the weekend. There are a couple of places to get food nearby if you rent a golf cart to get around. The closest restaurant was 2 miles from here since we were there in off season. The public beach is also 2 miles from here.

Honeymoon
Clean property, located close to the beach/ winery. Perfect for two people, but could accommodate small children on the pullout couch ( very comfy ). At night we sat on the porch that has a van and is well-lit. There was a large selection of movies to watch in the living room TV which we definitely utilized. would stay again!

A wonderful getaway!
We absolutely loved visiting the island and staying at the Evan Cottage. It’s set a little ways from the dirt road and privacy from neighbors. The host made sure we had all the information from booking a golf cart to reserving the ferry. The house had an umbrella, beach chairs, and an amazing porch off the front that we enjoyed evenings on just chatting! Everything was exceptional and perfect for a quick trip that didn’t break the bank.

Great deal on Daufuskie!
You won't find a better deal on Daufuskie. All of the essentials that you need plus a washer and dryer. We liked that the bed was in a separate room from the living/kitchen area. We also loved the location...Central to everything on the island, and very clean. Thanks for a great stay!

Great Get Away!
My husband and I had a wonderful time! We needed a great get away and Daufuskie was the perfect place. The cabin was perfect in size and the porch was wonderful. We had such a peaceful time sitting on the porch each morning and enjoying the tranquility! We had a fun time riding around on our golf cart exploring the Island. Everyone was so friendly! At night we visited the bar and had a blast! We hope to get to visit the Island again soon.

Perfect lil bungalow
This was our 3rd trip to Daufuskie Island, we love the island so much but it’s really hard to find something smaller and affordable for a couple people…This lil nook was the perfect place for us! Cozy, comfortable, clean, and the front deck is a huge plus! We had everything we needed. We were a little nervous about what we didn’t bring with us but we were quickly put at ease with having all the necessities! This will definitely be our go-to place from now on, we can’t wait to go back! The Evan Cottage, great place!
