About this cottage rental
Vintage River Cottage on 3 acres with view of the Okatie River. Ideally located halfway between Savannah, Beaufort and Bluffton...an easy drive to the Savannah/Hilton Head airport. The Lowcountry at its orginal best. Old live oaks, camellia forests, magnolias, a perfect location from which to explore the Lowcountry. This cottage is the original house on the property known as Cedar Bluff, and shares the 3 acres with the owners who live in main house steps away. Still private and quiet.
The cottage features a wonderful screened porch, hardwood floors, stone fireplace with gas logs, ceiling fans throughout. Dating from 1925, the cottage has lots of character that one would expect but with all the necessities like updated bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen, streaming TV, internet. There are only a handful of authentic Lowcountry River Cottages left: here is your opportunity to experience the Lowcountry at its best: comfortable, nestled among large oaks, pines, camellias and azaleas with a tidal river seen from the front porch.
Please be advised that there is no room for guests to keep a boat at the dock, with the exception of kayaks which are welcome.
The owners also offer a small log cabin in Western North Carolina near Cashiers, Glenville, Sylva, VRBO #300192

Sometimes you see pictures online and the reality is not as nice. Oakatee cottage is the opposite. Everything was 100% perfect; from the hosts to the comfort of southern living to being centrally located. This is the perfect place to relax after exploring: Charleston, Beaufort, Savannah, Hilton head! What a wonderful vacation. Many thanks Isabella and Jerry!

This is a perfect place for pets. Lots of room, beautiful grounds and areas to walk. The kitchen was well appointed but shows its' age.

We came to find the ‘Vintage River Cottage’, as we were looking for an alternative to staying in a hotel for over a week.. we would be in town to help my parents as they begin a difficult life transition. We wanted a place to unwind and decompress at the end of the day. This cottage hit ALL the marks: quiet, comfortable, peaceful, and, if possible, I would say, nurturing for the soul. I would describe it as ‘the grandparents’ cottage’; more for the historical feel of the cottage. However, the cottage is outfitted with functional, comfortable furniture and homey decor (lots of beautiful artwork, within, too). This was so much more than the usual rental places we have stayed in before.. almost like it was their second home. If you are looking for something quaint and quirky (and historical- as the cottage is 100 years old!), you will not be disappointed!
