Cute cottage in a great location

The house is just what you see online. Well appointed and clean. High quality amenities. Communication with booking services was great. LOVED that the backyard is fenced in! Perfect size for a family or two couples. Note that you cannot park right outside the house, you’ll need to walk all your stuff to the house.

An Absolute Dream!!

We stayed at this house (family of five with three kids ages 8-11) for three nights and it was absolutely THE BEST! We traveled through Savannah and Charleston as well on our trip and the kids keep raving about Palmetto Bluff above all else. It was worth every penny. The house: beautiful, spacious, clean, well appointed, luxurious, and perfectly located. Palmetto Bluff: picturesque low country abounds. We had the gold carts and rented bikes in Wilson Village. It made it so fun for the kids. You can’t do everything at the montage but it didn’t matter - we still played tennis, pickle ball, fished, went shrimping, ate mar delicious restaurants, and enjoyed the canoe club pool. The kids loved exploring! We’d do this part of our trip over, in this house, every single time.

House was as described

Your have a nice rental, however, it would be helpful to explain how to use the TV. My biggest issue with the house was the infestation of cockroaches. I spoke to the property manager about it. They were everywhere. We found the in the kitchen, living room and bedroom. They were on the sofa. We are from a state where this is not normal. It made us uncomfortable feeling like bugs were crawling on us when we sat in the living room

Super

We had a wonderful stay at 22 Westerwald. The location was perfect! Our boys loved riding their bikes around the neighborhood. There were great books and games for everyone to enjoy, particularly our boys. The bunk room was perfect. We loved the front porch and screened in back porch and spent the majority of our time in those two spots. The house was comfortable and well equipped. Oh and the golf cart— we loved it! We’ve stayed on Palmetto Bluff numerous times but that was our first time with a golf cart. I highly recommend it!!! Great house! Great host!

Short but perfect stay

The location of this property cannot be beaten. RT Market was within literally a few steps and we walked to Montage resort for dinners and Cocktails. House was very tastefully decorated and had everything we needed. Property manager was readily reachable by phone and the concierge team helped getting restaurant reservations and booked tee times. Nice touch, although we tidied up before leaving, not having to take linen off the beds or run the dishwasher before departure adds so much to comfortable stay. Couple of minor pointers, I wish there were instructions for TV and coffee machine as it took a little time for us to figure out. Highly recommend this property!

This pretty little house was perfect for our family with 2 active teenage boys. It is so close to pickle ball and basketball so they were constantly entertained. The home had everything we needed and was very convenient to everything in the property. The kitchen was well stocked and the golf cart made it easy to get to the restaurants.

Great House in the Perfect Location!

We had a wonderful week long stay and the only problem was we couldn’t stay longer! The house is beautiful, had everything we needed and is in a great location near the tennis, croquet and pickle ball courts where we worked off some of the extra calories from the second scoops from Melt in the village! We’ll definitely be back!
