About this villa rental
'BLUE FUSKIE' COTTAGE - 2 bedroom (+ sofa sleeper) in cottage duplex PLEASE READ THESE IMPORTANT NOTES PRIOR TO PROCEEDING TO PROPERTY DESCRIPTION NOTE: It is necessary to take a passenger only ferry to Daufuskie Island. We can help you with logistics by providing options for renting a golf cart, booking ground transportation and ferry reservations. IMPORTANT FEATURES 1) This cottage is a direct ocean-front property and is situated on a corner lot, providing its lucky guests with an wonderful view of the ocean from two sides. 2) An adjoining half-bath and dressing room makes this perfect for family groups. 3) High Speed Internet (fiber optics system just installed) & cable TV provided. 3) The nearby Melrose Beach is within walking distance. You will find yourself strolling from your cottage to the beach over and over. This pristine and secluded beach is perfect for long walks, jogging, and even bike riding. (No golf carts here, though! This is a nesting area for the endangered Loggerhead Turtles.) Families especially enjoy the relatively calm waters where children can swim and play without fear of a strong undertow. It’s a great beach for building sand castles and hunting for shells and sand dollars after the tide goes out. The wildlife is abundant and breathtaking. The resort is the home of a Great White Egret rookery, where you will see hundreds of these graceful birds settle in for the night. A nest of American Bald Eagles can be seen now and then, and some lucky visitors can actually catch site of a Loggerhead Turtle coming ashore to lay hundreds of eggs in the soft sand. You will want to spend time exploring the rest of this unique and special island. Accessible only by ferry, Daufuskie's isolation from the hustle and bustle of the mainland provides a one-of-its-kind experience for those looking to truly get away from it all. If you're looking for an old-fashioned Beach vacation experience, this beautiful cottage will exceed your expectations. This is a very popular cottage with island visitors, so be sure to reserve your time at this lovely vacation home today! Concerned about the logistics of coming to a bridge-less island? No need to worry! Guests receive information and assistance from the DRG team, all of whom live on the island and who are available 24/7 for any problems. Team members strive to create a stress-free and enjoyable adventure for their visitors, and to ensure that their Daufuskie experience creates lasting and once-in-a-lifetime memories. Daufuskie Rental Group, an on-island team of professionals dedicated to sharing the island dream with visitors. Location, location, location! The beautiful and spacious Blue Fuskie Cottage provides its lucky renters with a front row view of the Atlantic Ocean that has to be seen to be appreciated. Talk about a WOW factor!! Imagine yourself driving on your rented golf cart through a quiet road lined with Live Oaks draped with Spanish moss, pulling up to the back entrance of your vacation home, walking into your bright and spacious living room, and being greeted with a dazzling panorama of the ocean and blue sky just beyond. Trust us…It just doesn’t get any better than this! This vacation home has undergone a major renovation that created a large open floor plan tastefully decorated with a subtle coastal seascape theme. The cottage was designed to provide an ideal space for family get-togethers, including an open kitchen with granite counter tops and updated appliances overlooking the living room and dining areas. Each of the two oversized bedrooms has its own private bathroom (an additional half-bath is conveniently located off of the living room) and provide a lovely and serene setting where you will fall asleep listening to the nearby ocean waves. Your cottage includes a screened-in porch on the ocean side, and what a perfect place to enjoy to enjoy your morning coffee while watching the sun come up over the ocean! You will actually see glimpses of both South Carolina and Georgia from here, with Hilton Head off to your left, and the Tybee Island lighthouse on your right. And straight ahead….nothing but soaring sea gulls, a beautiful stretch of sandy beach, and of course, the deep blue ocean itself! We will be happy to help facilitate ground transportation and cart rental for exploring the island. Bikes are also available for rent. Melrose Beach is within walking distance of your cottage. The equestrian center is also back in operation, and beach horseback riding is available.

Like so many people, I have been feeling the stress of all that is going on, business, and the pace of life. I realized I needed a vacation and the thought of staying at a crowded hotel and not being able to get out when I needed just did not interest me. I went on line and saw this beautiful house and realized this is where I wanted/needed to stay. I reserved the house before talking with my Wife but she agreed that this place looked great!
When we got there, the property was as beautiful as the pictures and we spent 4 relaxing days listening to the waves looking at the amazing views. I had plans for so many things, but the house was so relaxing and comfortable that I spent most of the time in a state of bliss. The house had everything I would have imagined and we wanted for nothing.
This was one of the best vacations we've ever had and will be going back to Daufuskie on a regular basis. We are counting the days when we can return!

You can't beat the location. It was also very clean, and host provided everything needed, plus a few other useful things that were above and beyond. I was worried when I saw that the listing had been amended to say that it was a duplex since the time I booked it; however, we only had to share the unit for one night, but we didn't hear ANYTHING from next door. There were a few things that could have been better but not enough to add up to a whole star. We did see a few of those big roaches but no ants which is an accomplishment because otherwise the entire island is crawling with fire ants (except the beach). All in all, Daufuskie was a great trip and this property enabled us to enjoy it to the fullest. You should manage your expectations about the island itself - there's a reason it's not as busy as other places. There are definite inconveniences, especially involving travel, dining, and supplies; we and our luggage got soaked to the skin on the boat ride over. There was no restaurant on the island where you could eat inside, just picnic tables outside. I heard they're repairing one that might be different. However, to us, it was worth the quiet, beautiful beaches and abundant wildlife. Do your own research and know what you're getting into before you go to Daufuskie. Thanks to the host for providing a nice stay.

We had the best time on our little getaway to Daufuskie Island. The Blue Fuskie was exactly as stated and the property managers were very easy to work with. The view from this cottage is amazing... perfect for a cup of coffee on the porch watching the sunrise over the water. We hope to return soon and would stay at the Blue Fuskie again!

I'm not even sure how to put our vacation into words.
The cottage was beautiful, comfortable and homey. When it says this location is right on the beach, they mean 100 steps from the door, literally on the beach! I don't think there is a more beautiful view on the entire Atlantic.
The home had most everything we needed and everything promised including a super comfortable bed.
The management team did an excellent job helping us navigate our trip here with golf carts, ferry support and transportation information.
We absolutely fell in Love with Bishop at Bell's, Jaimie at Daufuskie Crab, everyone at the rum company, School Grounds and everyone at Lucy Bells! What amazing people who call Daufuskie home. We spent days at the pool, on the beach, reading and had the most fun exploring the island in the gold cart.
We've been on many, many great vacations, but this was by far the most amazing week ever. This is the first and only vacation we've EVER HAD where we dont feel like we need a vacation from our vacation! Thank you Daufuskie...we cant wait to visit this little piece of heaven again very, very soon!

Excellent location. Back porch with view of the beach. Master bedroom has a super comfortable bed. Included use of Melrose pools - kids loved them. At low tide the water goes out forever!!! Only would like locks on interior doors and softer beds in second bedroom.
Great place for watching wildlife - herons, armadillos, lizards, tree frogs, & deer. Took golf carts to Bloody Point beach several days. Absolutely beautiful beach with spots where the leatherback turtles lay eggs at night. (Egg sites are marked off to protect them). Kids loved the waves. Both beaches have super soft sand.
House had sand toys, beach chairs, grill & beach umbrella. On island over Memorial Day weekend and still adults could be in the waves and so few people on the beach you can keep track of kids playing in the sand. Great stars because no lights allowed on beach at night.
If you have young kids pack most of your food because restaurants on the island have slow service.
Absolutely love the island!!!

We had really high hopes for this beautiful home on Daufuskie. We fell in love with the island and enjoyed many of the local spots. However, I was really surprised that this rental had so many 5-star reviews. We encountered a serious bug infestation problem during our stay. We lost count of the number of cockroaches and palmetto bugs that we killed in the home while there. They were everywhere and made us feel truly uncomfortable. I did communicate the problem to the rental manager and they did send out a pest control company to spray the home while we were there. But this problem was evasive and we continued to kill cockroaches every day throughout the remainder of our stay. We live in South Carolina so we are well aware that you must stay ahead of the bug problem. Unfortunately this rental has not. I hate to leave a negative review but I truly wish that I had known this prior to spending so much on a family vacation to find a bug infested home.

We loved our stay on Daufuskie so much! I wanted a real get-a-way close to nature but with all the comfort and amenities. I was not disappointed. The beauty of the island is amazing and peaceful. The cottage was as lovely as it could be! The view out from the cottage was so beautiful! Saw deer, an other worldly pond with an island full of Wood Storks, Egrets an their nests and the quite different Grey Fox Squirrel that is native there. Restaurants were good. Recommend you book a boat over that has enclosure, a larger ferry type boat. We did not do so and had a very rough, wet ride over due to windy day. Also had to leave a day early due to thunderstorms expected for all the next day and boat we reserved would have been unable to come get us. I used to go camping on Cumberland Island in my youth and hoped this would be similar but with rental property. It was wonderful!

We loved the property and the island. Every day brought a new treasure. I enjoyed morning coffee on the screened in porch listening to the ocean and then off for beach walks and bike rides. Exploring the island in our golf cart was so fun. Blue Fuske had everything we needed and provided excellent information for our stay. Can’t wait to visit again.
