Given our intimate size, cancellations significantly impact our operations. In consideration of this factor, we maintain a stringent cancellation policy. All cancellations are subject to a $50.00 cancellation fee per room. Cancellations made 15 days or more before the anticipated arrival date will be eligible for a refund of the advance deposit, minus the $50.00 cancellation fee per room. Unfortunately, cancellations made within the 14 days leading up to the expected arrival date will not be eligible for a refund. Change of dates, early departures or no-shows are considered cancellations and are treated according to our cancellation policy. We appreciate your understanding of the importance of adhering to this policy.

We urge you to consider protecting your stay if you have any doubt about your ability to travel. We have partnered with TravelSafe to provide options that will help protect you from unexpected hazards in travel. An optional upgrade “cancel for any reason” benefit insures 100% of the trip costs. It does require that you purchase within 21 days of the initial trip deposit. Please click here to get a quick quote and to see more details.

Third-party bookings are subject to the third party’s cancellation policies and fees. Any reservations made through third-party sites should be canceled or changed directly with the booking site.

In the case of severe weather, if the Governor of South Carolina puts an evacuation order in place during your stay, we will refund the amount of your stay or issue you a gift certificate.
