We spend 2 nights at the Rhett House Inn, cottage rm 15, and enjoyed our stay very much. Cottage room had a porch and was very quiet at night. I didn't see any of the rooms in the main house so can't compare. It's within walking distance to everything in quaint downtown. Breakfasts were excellent, pecan pie at dessert hour... More

A lovely stay with a spacious room and terrific staff, especially during breakfast. It was a nice getaway for us and we could not have been more pleased. Restaurants were in close proximity to the Rhett House, and it was a very relaxing stay for us.

We recently spent two nights here and enjoyed our stay very much. The B&B is highly rated by TripAdvisor. The rating is well deserved. We stayed in Room 3 which is on the second floor. The room was large and very nicely furnished. Our bed was very comfortable. Everything was immaculately clean. The hall has a door that goes directly... More

We had a cottage room # 17 that was upstairs with a private porch. Lovely, no traffic passing by. As it is a old Historic Hotel, the amenities provided more than made up for it. I will say the only staff member that went out of their way to be personable was Josh. Other than him you might just as... More

I only got to spend one night at the Rhett House Inn but it was fantastic. Extremely friendly service, beautiful property, great location. The room was very comfortable. And you can't beat the pies and breakfast on the veranda!

Stayed here for a weekend. Loved every aspect - great breakfast, afternoon snacks, and dessert hour. The room was amazing and had a private porch, huge bathroom, comfortable bed, and beautiful hardwood floors. Friends rented the cottage behind the main house, and that building was beautifully decorated and quite spacious as well. The staff was courteous and attentive, and the... More

Our last two stays at the Rhett house showed marked deterioration in customer service. The staff was less friendly and the management was inflexible. In fact on our last booking management cancelled our reservation at the last minute even after providing confirmation numbers, apparently receiving a better offer. This caused our entire group to seek accommodations elsewhere at the last... More
