DAUFUSKIE ISLAND
Your villa is located on one of the best-kept secrets on the eastern coast: Daufuskie Island. Your home overlooks 3 miles of pristine, quiet beaches where all you can hear is the sound of gentle waves and beautiful shore birds. Watch the shrimp boats, bike or ride horses along the beach, take a Historic tour and discover the Gullah History of Daufuskie or take in a round of golf. Don't forget to try our island delicacy, deviled crabs! Better still, we'll help arrange a full low-country dinner prepared by a local resident to be delivered directly to your cottage.
Daufuskie has several unique and colorful restaurants (Lucy Bell's and the Daufuskie Crab Company) where you'll swear you're in the middle of the Caribbean. There is also new dining in Melrose / Bell's at the Beach Restaurant, as well as the charming School Grounds Coffee Shop. There are also several great local services that will bring home-cooked meals to your villa and even the opportunity to have the famous Gullah cookbook writer, Sallie Ann Robinson, cook you dinner in your villa, give you a cooking lesson, and talk about the history of Daufuskie all at the same time!
History buffs will enjoy exploring the island and visiting various sites providing a glimpse into the past, including the recently-restored Oyster House used as a 19th century Gullah meeting place, the Billie Burns Museum, ancient cemeteries, and the two-room school house where renowned author Pat Conroy taught and which was the subject of his first book, The Water is Wide.
