Situated on Daufuskie Island with only five other homes, Beachfield House’s high ceilings, balconies and bright colors will make you feel like you’re staying in a historic southern home, even though it was built in 2010. With no car access to the island, South Carolina’s most luxurious dog-friendly Airbnb truly feels like an escape. Fido can ride shotgun in the golf cart provided to pay a visit to the nearby beach or hang out in the downstairs playroom while his humans play cornhole, ping pong, bocce or can jam. The cook’s kitchen, gas grill and full-size smoker also set the table for delicious meals for the whole family.
