This is such a great thread, thanks to the OP and all who have been contributing.
I have little to share except that my husband and I (with kids/grandkids in Savannah) also found "downtown" Beaufort SC to be historically interesting and very charming for a walkabout on its main drag of restaurants & shops. It is bordered on one side by a lovely waterfront with grassy areas and a nice fenced-in playground, great for an "activity break" for any young grandchildren traveling with you. Was told by locals that Beaufort's outlying areas are a great place to live if you're a boat owner, but know that the "downtown" itself flows into residential areas on its other sides that are less safe, smaller but not dissimilar to downtown Savannah.
