Old Town Bluffton ยท South Carolina

A treetop retreat above the Lowcountry.

A newly built one-bedroom hideaway tucked into the live oaks โ€” steps from the May River docks, shops, and the table where you'll want to be.

Light-filled living room with leather reading chair, plush sofa, and a 65-inch TV

Welcome home

Quiet days, treetop evenings.

Step out the front door onto a private deck shaded by Spanish moss, breathe in the salt air drifting up from the May River, and let the slower pace of the Lowcountry take over.

Inside, a comfortable living room invites you to linger โ€” a plush sofa (with a pull-out queen sleeper), a dedicated reading chair, and a 65" TV for easy evenings. It's built for resting, reading, and doing nothing at all particularly well.

About the cove. Your deck overlooks Huger Cove โ€” known locally as Bootlegger Cove โ€” a historic saltwater tidal arm of the May River. During Prohibition, boats once slipped illegal liquor up these waters to waiting trucks. Today it's all birdsong and tide.

The Space

Thoughtfully built, top to bottom.

High-end finishes run throughout โ€” quartz countertops, a tiled walk-in shower, whole-house water filtration, and a whisper-quiet HVAC system.

The Treehouse was the perfect place for our weekend in Bluffton โ€” within walking distance to all the great restaurants and sunset spots. Charlie was the best host we could ask for. Very responsive and quick with a recommendation.

This carriage house was perfect. Walkable to May River parks and Old Town. It was spotless and homey. Charlie, the host, was proactive and totally wanted to make our experience flawless. We would definitely stay again.

Charlie was so happy to share his knowledge of the history of Old Town Bluffton โ€” the churches, welcome center, restaurants, shops, and the most beautiful park areas. Everything is within walking distance. The best accommodations!

Brand new and he thought of everything โ€” a fully stocked kitchen, a bathroom with the most amazing shower, a huge TV for movie night and a bonus one for the bedroom. The king bed is incredibly comfortable with luxury bedding and darkening shades. Location is perfection.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay for MayFest weekend. Great location for everything Old Town Bluffton offers โ€” seafood, shops, and riverfront. Charlie & Susan were 5-star hosts: responsive, friendly, and accommodating. The apartment was in mint condition and well-stocked.

The space is gorgeous and cozy! Charlie was so accommodating and thoughtful. We enjoyed a peaceful morning walk around the cute neighborhood to a local coffee shop. The location is convenient to both Savannah and Hilton Head.

We had a lovely stay. Extremely clean and comfortable. My only issue was that it was a quick trip and we only got to stay one night! We will definitely be back. A perfect stay.
