2 Bedroom Cottage in Knowles Island Plantation, Ridgeland

Attending Parris Island graduation? Looking for a home base for your Lowcountry getaway? Want to bring Fido along?
Explore one of the most beautiful areas in South Carolina from pet-friendly, accessible Broadview Cottage.
Great central location for exploring or birding the SC Lowcountry: easy access to National Wildlife Refuges, ACE Basin, and golf courses; approximately 30-45 minutes from Bluffton, Hilton Head, Beaufort, and Parris Island; 50 minutes from Savannah, just a hop-and-skip from I-95.
Broadview Cottage nestles in a unique community just 5 miles off I-95 (SC exit 28, Coosawhatchie). Palm Key is a quiet, casual gathering of cottages which invites the visitor to enjoy the lovely peace of the woods, pond, and Broad River marshes. Our cottage offers visitors the opportunity to escape into nature, to leave the bustling world behind--while being conveniently located for visits to nearby Parris Island, beaches, golf courses, and shopping in Beaufort, Bluffton, Hilton Head, and Savannah.
Entertainment nearby or on site:
* Take day trips to nearby travel destinations: Beaufort, Bluffton, Hilton Head, Hunting Island, Parris Island, the Penn Center, Savannah, and more (you’ll find brochures at the cottage, or, on I-95, stop at the SC Welcome Center or Exit 33’s Frampton Visitor’s Center for information)
* Golf at Hilton Head and other courses
* Bring your kayaks to enjoy the nearby Broad River or any of the other nearby salt creeks and black water rivers.
*Bring your bikes; the neighborhood is bike-and-kid friendly.
*Visit the “trestle road,” a former railroad bed (now just gravel) that juts out across the marsh and ends at the Broad River
* Bring your fishing pole! Fish in the pond or at the nearby trestle pier.
* Wander along the marsh and in Palm Key’s Mystical Park with oyster-shell labyrinth
* Bird along the marsh and nearby marsh islands—this area has around 250 species to be seen, depending on time of year—for example, painted buntings, pine warblers, wood storks, eagles, osprey, egrets, pelicans, and screech owls.
* Bring your camera and enjoy the outdoors.
Broadview Cottage was designed to encourage visitors to look out—a wide expanse of windows in each room gives onto marsh views, with live oaks covered in Spanish moss, to the sun rising over the Broad River, to wood storks soaring.
Our wide porch invites you to relax with a book in the swing or chat with friends over drinks. Inside, the open floor plan encourages conversation, relaxation, and visiting.

Nicole M. Jun 10, 2025 10:19:52 PM
Summary: We had a wonderful time taking in the tranquil view from the room of the low lands and water. The neighborhood was clean and will kept and off the beaten path. The location was perfectly central to Savannah and Beaufort. The two separated bedrooms with full baths attached works wonderful for our stay. We will be back to this gem!
Matt S. Jun 9, 2025 09:24:30 PM
Summary: This has become our favorite place to unplug and relax. We spend most of our time the back porch looking out at the marsh. It's close enough to the things you need, but far enough to feel removed from it all.
Daryl O. May 9, 2025 08:01:43 AM
Summary: We enjoyed our visit to Broadview. Wonderful porch with a swing to enjoy the amazing ever changing views. We found the cottage clean, well stocked and very comfortable. The location is perfect for day trips to several of the low country towns and beaches. We hope we can return again. April is a great host
Janet P. Oct 31, 2024 08:12:42 AM

Summary: Broadview was exactly what we needed after Hurricane Helene. It is such a sweet place outfitted with everything you need and more. The healing relaxing space was perfect for us to recalibrate together after the disaster. Thank you April and Jody for having a place for us. We will be back.

Daphne S. Jul 6, 2024 01:37:24 AM
Summary: Broadview is such an appropriate name for the cottage. Such amazing views of the marsh and Broad River. It always feels so comfortable and welcoming. After staying as many times as possible since 2016, it truly is our home away from home. Relaxing, peaceful and beautiful are just a few words to describe this awesome place. April and Jody are always available for questions or a quick chat. Just a wonderful place!
Marvin A. Jul 1, 2024 02:48:46 AM
Summary: Every detail about our stay was wonderful. We stayed for the entire month of June as our home was undergoing renovations. This sweet cottage was a great home away from home. It was cozy and comfortable.The views were stunning. The neighborhood of Palm Key was quiet and tranquil which was exactly what we wanted. We brought our dog and were so impressed by how dog friendly this cottage was. April and Jody, the property owners were so wonderful to work with and we are so grateful they shared their home with us.
