We stayed in Beaufort for its location and history. The Pinckney house was amazing!! It was like spending time in a different era that was all charm and beauty. The house is much more spacious than the pictures show.Everything was comfortable and accommodating. We loved it!!
Roomy home in quiet neighborhood with 2 close parks, amazing water views, close to downtown Beaufort and Port Royal. Lots of birding opportunities on the dock as well as at the Cypress Wetlands and Hunting Island. We especially enjoyed the Pat Conroy literary Center as well. Owners very attentive and responsive to our questions.
Incredible views and convenient location to explore Beaufort area
The location on the water and across from the marine air base is amazing. Kitchen is reasonably equipped. The home was built in 1955 and most furniture is reflective of the era. Much of the furniture is beyond its prime. The piano is beautiful but un-playable due to it being out of tune and broken keys. The booking process and project management were excellent.
Wonderful property and hospitality. We needed a home for our husband and furbaby to escape Helene. The property manager couldnât have been more helpful and kind. Loved the period decor and the beautiful sunsets. Wish we couldâve stayed longer.
Just another amazing, relaxing, relaxing, peaceful trip down here. This house is just so cozy and comfortable. It rained most of the time but that is totally ok. The house was so comfortable and we made the best of every moment! Canât wait to come back for our 3rd visit!
Have stayed at the property five years straight and every time has been amazing. Wonderful property full of kitsch and charm with beautiful river views and a great dock.
Allison and Mike are fantastic to deal with. Very responsive and super helpful. Already excited about next year.
The house was charming and had phenomenal views. 3 families got together for a great weekend enjoying the river and this great town. Loved the place. Hoping to make this an annual trip.
This is a beautiful place! The Host was magnificent!! The dock amazing!! I always try to come here at least once a year. The house reminds me of home! Plenty of provisions in the house as well!
Pinkney Home Place is a very restful and comfortable house right on the river and marshlands. The home is full of wonderful family memories/history and in a quiet neighborhood! It has lots of room and is very close to the beautiful downtown Beaufort. The sunroom looks out on the river and marshland where you can enjoy your morning coffee and gorgeous sunsets over the water! Your stay even includes the use of their private fishing dock! We couldn't have asked for a more relaxing vacation!!!
We have stayed here many times before. It is a great property for comfort, peace and quiet, awesome view of the Intercoastal out back, the Beaufort River. And the air shows from across the river are a bonus. We never get tired of seeing the military jets fly from the training base. Such a great place to stay! Highly recommended!
Beautiful setting, house is old but in good shape with lots of 1950's - 1960's vibes. Five old friends gathered for an annual trip of golf and other indulgences. Everyone of us recommended renting the same place next year.
We thoroughly enjoyed our month in Beaufort at this home full of family memories! We arrived to a spotless well equipped home, in a quiet peaceful and friendly neighborhood. Location was perfect for exploring the local area, and a large dock was available for watching the tides, crabbing or fishing. Mike next door was available for any questions and local recommendations.
This is a very special place and we watched many sunsets with gratitude.
What a fabulous property. It was absolutely beautiful and we found it to be exactly as listed. I wish the walls could talk to speak of the fun and history that this home has to offer. It was very clean and the bed in the master bedroom (we only used that bedroom) was incredibly comfortable. The dock was amazing and the lighting on it was wonderful and made for a few great evenings sitting out with a glass of wine. The location is great and no more than 10 minutes away from grocery and shopping in one direction, and the historic waterfront park in the other. We would definitely stay here again!
The stay was great. The house is exactly as listed - a throw back in time. It felt like I was staying at my grandparent house when I was a kid. Learning about the history of the home and the family was also a nice touch. I was also able to show my kids how much things have evolved over time ranging from the kitchen and bathrooms.
The house was very spacious. My family of seven didnât feel like we were on top of each other. The host provided great resources for using the washer and dryer as well as good bathroom amenities.
Lastly, the location was great - a five minutes drive to downtown Beaufort. Also seeing the jets fly over each night was good enjoyment for all of us.
Pinckney Homeplace is a unique property. Its located in a quiet waterfront neighborhood. The interior has vintage charm dating to the 1950s.
Its well equipped for cooking. There is a Mr Coffee drip machine as well as a Keurig coffeemaker. Plenty of dishes and seating. The main bedroom and twin bedroom with crib share a small bath. 2 other bedrooms share a hall bath. There's a cozy den with TV. The long dock and gazebo look over the marsh and waterway. Seating in the gazebo is a great way to spend an afternoon, watching the ducks, egrets and boats. Our family enjoyed a holiday gathering here. The owners had even provided some Christmas decor and a beautiful Nativity scene in the large living room. Thank you, Pinckney family
There were 10 of us, 4 adults and 6 kids (my husband and I, our sons family and grandkids). The house and location were perfect. We all loved the water views. loved walking in the safe neighborhood and to the local coffee shop. The dock held the boat we rented from the Marine Base, so there was fishing and sandbar swimming and dolphins galore. We could ride the boat into town and dock at the city dock and get ice cream or dinner. The boat launch was about 5 houses away. There is a great shady town park for our little grandkids to play maybe 6 blocks away. I grew up in a home similar to this large lovely, comfortable home so it was a treat for me. With our group, we didn't need a fancy house with white couches and expensive furnishing. I love a home with history and this one hit all our needs. Great large house and great location for us. Owner answered all our questions within minutes. Cell service and wifi were perfect.
Needs Attention and Overall Stay in The Pinckney Place
*****May 18 - May 21.2023*****
I did not go up to house this time, my friends reported these things to me. Just thought you may want to know.
1) Lock box was very difficult to open
2) Electrical plug broken off in the outlet in one bedroom with single beds not one with crib. Noticed when plugging in extension cord because no outlets in bathrooms.
3) Ceiling fan appeared to be very loose
Overall my five college friends (80/81yrs. young) were very pleased with the accommodations. They enjoyed walking on the dock in the mornings and once again they were very satisfied with "The Pinckney Place" just as they were in October 2022. The house is very spacious, very clean, and met their needs by having a comfortable bed available for each one. The group was very appreciative of the friendly gift of a box of chocolates from "The Chocolate Tree".
The house was wonderful and the views were amazing! Plenty of space for all 8 of us! A very homey atmosphere and a well stocked kitchen with dishes and utensils
The owners are brother and sister, who grew up in this house. Built by our father, we (along with our spouses) have recently upgraded it while trying to keep much of the family home charm that it has always had. It is a special place to us, and we hope it will be to you, too!
