My husband and I stayed at Anchorage 1770 for six days for my 50th birthday and had a wonderful time! The owner, Frank, is incredibly nice and will ensure your stay is wonderful and Harper went above and beyond to ensure it!! The inn is lovely and has the most beautiful porches with the loveliest views! Not sure anything else around can rival it. Plus, you are right at the end of "downtown" Bay Street, so even with my knee arthritis, it was a lovely walk to dinner and shopping with no problem for me!

The food here is incredible, so do not miss out! Dinner is served I believe Wed-Sat and is honestly the best we've ever had! Not to mention, dining on the front porch is just so southern! My husband got the fried chicken that everyone recommends and I got the filet mignon. Both meals were out of this world - not just cooked to perfection, but the sauce/gravy that accompanied each was like none we had before and took perfection to a new level. The chef, Byron, should have his own show!!! So be sure to have dinner there at least once!

Some recommendations from me for your visit:
* It is in the welcome sheet and Frank will remind you that this is an old house. With that, you can hear about everything. Therefore, they put sound machines in every room. My husband can't stand noise and we were right at the top of the stairs and could hear people going up/down the stairs, street traffic, etc. I put on the sound machine and it just drowns that out and we slept like babies!!! Not to mention the softest sheets and most incredible duvet - it's like sleeping in a cloud. A few nights we forgot to turn on the machine and it was not a problem at all. But that sound helps me sleep anyway!
* If you are worried about having a porch view room and people looking in, don't. We stayed in 303 and the only time people were on the porch was on Sat and maybe one couple on Sunday. It was very hot the time we were there though. But I was sitting on the bed and not a single person looked in the window. No matter, I would have waved if they did! :D
* If you are able, use the bikes provided by Anchorage to explore Beaufort!!!! This was one of the best things of our stay. We would bike before or after breakfast (since it was in the 90s when we stayed) and absolutely loved riding by all of the antebellum homes. Be sure to check out St. Helena chapel and graveyard.
* Breakfast is not served until 8:30. However, coffee will await you in the lobby. Good time to go for that bike ride or walk the waterfront and work off some of the calories for breakfast. Or just rise slowly in that incredible bed.
* Visit Huntington Beach State Park!! Long winding drive in through all natural area, climb the lighthouse (you have two railings to hold on to, so again, even with knee arthritis, I was able to do it with no problem and the view was worth it), and the beach was incredible. It was not crowded and there are of course no homes/building along the beach, so it was very serene. We both joked we felt like we washed up on a deserted island. I could stay there forever! Frank was kind enough to offer us beach towels and chairs, so take him up on that!! We did not go in since it was a red flag and the waves were crashing like it was a hurricane, but I can imagine how beautiful it is to swim and look at that serene beach. We will definitely be returning to HBSP!!
* The Chocolate Tree - okay, so not a friendly staff at all and you can see that by the reviews. However, the chocolate is the most incredible chocolate I've ever had. We only got a few pieces when we were heading out to drive home and I regret not buying more. Had we stayed even one more day, I most definitely would go back and stockpiled it!! It's all I can think about now, and luckily, they deliver.
* Go to dinner at Fishcamp in Port Royal. I always ask locals where they suggest and this was suggested by Harper. Fishcamp is maybe a 12 min drive from Anchorage. I am not particularly a fish eater - if someone makes it I'll eat it but if I'm spending $20+, I'm getting steak, chicken or pasta!! But when I am at a seafoood restaurant, I will sometime order fish. I ordered the group in a pecan crust with a lemon sauce and it was the only thing in my life to rival the filet mignon I had at Anchorage. My husband, who is a seafood eater, said it's one of the best seafood dishes he's ever had. Also visit Dockside, which is just over the bridge and sit outside.
* Don't be fooled by Luther's Pharmacy. Looks a bit like a dive bar or whatever, but has great staff and a beautiful view of the water. My husband got a burger with the Hickory Char Crust rub plus cheddar cheese and it had to be THE BEST burger either of us have ever had. If we had another day in Beaufort, we definitely would have gone back for another burger!!!!
* It's about a 30 min drive to The Chapel of Ease ruins and Old Sheldon Church ruins. Both are very cool and picture worthy!! Very cool part of our trip!

We absolutely loved our stay and have such good memories from it - will definitely be back and won't stay anywhere else!!
