A recent guest had this to say about the property:
"A great little bungalow, very generously appointed. The setting is the kind of elegant you only get in the live oaks, gardens, fountains, ferns and bright sunshine. The patio outside the bungalow is rather pretty, something you can't really get from the photos. Julie and her husband were superb hosts, attending to every need, offering guidance on local food and even helping with beach access. We were privileged to be the first guests in this bungalow, and it's highly recommended for all who may follow. Thanks Julie!"

Strategies to get the best Georgetown, SC vacation home experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a Georgetown rental home:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is high season in the Georgetown, SC area. To get the best value, change your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warmer temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property managers often offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local Georgetown, SC area magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines contain coupons for local accommodations and attractions.

• Begin by choosing your the best vacation week and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. Charming Historic Guest House in the Heart of Town has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Georgetown, SC vacation rental search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available online. If they are not listed, email the property management company before reserving the property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or charges could be applied to your invoice.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

During your stay:

• Get the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, television set or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent many issues.
• Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let crooks spoil your vacation.
• To make sure that damages aren't linked to your family's visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during check in. text the rental manager immediately to report any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a great resource to find the best local attractions.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• At departure, take a walk-through to confirm you did not leave anything behind. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a wonderful stay? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
