Guest Review

Review from a bed and breakfast Travel Writer

“This South Carolina bed and breakfast is one-of-a-kind, perfecting Southern hospitality in a laidback, tranquil coastal landscape. Here, the birds chirp happier, the people laugh a little harder, and the Aperol Spritz from Lost Local tastes a bit sweeter.” — Carlee Alexandria

Carlee, a bed and breakfast travel writer, has stayed with us in the Main House, Cottage, and Newcastle House accommodations. Her love of bed and breakfasts began at the Rhett House Inn, when she and her husband visited Beaufort for the first time. Since then, we have welcomed her back to review and share her love of the Rhett House Inn.
