A perfect overnight stay in every respect. It began with a phone call to let the host know we would be arriving later than expected due to a traffic tie-up on the interstate. She was very understanding and helpful. Upon arrival we were graciously met and showed to our room. A number of local restaurants were recommended within walking distance, and each would have been great. The inn offers home made desserts with coffee or tea for evening enjoyment, and they were excellent. The room was flawless. Every amenity imaginable was at hand. Breakfast was superb. In fact it was better than some we have had experienced in 5-star hotels. We would rate this as one of our top 5 stays we've had in 23 years of traveling to different inns, historic hotels, and B and Bs throughout the eastern US. It was our first trip to Beaufort, and we will definitely go back and stay longer.

Loved this charming B&B! The place to stay in Beaufort as it fits this beautiful historic city perfectly and is walking distance to everthing. The staff was gracious and accomodating. The breakfasts were delicious as were the desserts offered each evening. I could not have had a more delightful or relaxing time.

My wife and I have had varied experiences while sticking to the B&B concept, which we like in the smaller cities and towns. On this past trip to the Low Country of South Carolina and upper Georgia, we enjoyed the Rhett House the most, and we absolutely disagree with the previous poster who did not share the same opinion.
From the friendly greeting at check-in to the final, full Southern breakfast, we always felt fortunate that we booked at this inn that retained the charm and attention to detail that we expected.
No matter how busy Yvonne, Barbara, Anita, Becky, or Laurel was, each one consistently answered our questions, provided maps and directions, and met our personal requests. On one night the inn was not at capacity while the other two nights the inn was full because of the Backroads Bicycle group. The service and amenities (eg, choice of three desserts at 7:00 PM, best tasting lemonade) never wavered.
The room was clean and large, the breakfasts were delicious and varying, free internet was available, the location can't be beat, and the service was..you know.
Now when I think of our trip to SE US, I will remember the Rhett House foremost.

The Rhett House Inn was just beautiful!! Accomadations were outstanding, and I can't think of a thing that management missed. Breakfast on the porch was very relaxing, and the service was top notch. All of the food was tremendous------from breakfast to late evening dessert. Loved the peanutbutter pie!!
We enjoyed the informative carriage tour, shopping, a day at the beach(an umbrella would have been nice),and of course the great restaurants.
We look forward to returning and spending more time sight-seeing and lounging at the beach.


Thank you again for your hospitality!
