Why buy a home when you can build a fairytale? Hi, I'm Curt. My wife Ani, son Fitch, and I are your average, everyday nonconformists who have been running an experiment. We are trying to figure out if a family can use their own hands and some grit to handcraft a life that you don't need a vacation from. Or better yet, that you would vacation to. Have we done that? You be the judge. About 4 years ago we left our South Florida handcrafting furniture business to pursue this new goal. We set out to build an inspiring experience in simple, eco-friendly living that would find a harmony between some of the old fashioned world that we'd found ourselves missing, and the handful of modern advancements that were actually beneficial. All while keeping it classy. At Heirloom Hamlet, you will see us designing unique, functional cabins, installing solar, composting, planting, and building toilets that are better for our environment. We're bread baking, pasta making, timber milling, woodworking, clay-forming and metal pounding. The goal is to evolve into a small world of self-reliance and harmony with nature. Ani and I are big believers in being mindful and respectful of our environment wherever reasonable. So, we are incorporating both alternative and municipal utilities as they can fit into our homestead design and limited budget. Through good design, our goal is to show just how "normal" small living can feel. We all have personal priorities and those will vary greatly, and that's okay. But no person should be so self-absorbed that we have completely shut out the importance of being respectfully mindful to the earth and to our fellowman. After all, if we don't have that, what do we have? To be completely transparent, though, the creatives in us also would like it if we inspired onlookers to possibly look at their own space and life a little bit differently. We've personally found it to be so fulfilling to distinguish real desires and needs from the ones we've been groomed to pursue, and then work to make them a reality. We've found it energizing to witness our fellowmen and women pursuing a dream. We'd like to be a stimulating memory along any person's journey. Visiting with us, we sure hope our guests don't expect to find a corporate approach to life here, and that they can appreciate some of our old-fashioned ways. That, as our paths cross, we won't be held to a business-first standard that we have worked hard to remove ourselves from. We realize everyone has a right to be themselves, but our presentation at Heirloom Hamlet has been purposefully designed to be a refreshing hideaway from the norm.

Cappuccino (RV / Van) - Full Hookup

Perfect home base for Savannah/HHI!

Curt’s place was fantastic and everything we could have asked for. Convenient to 95, quiet, peaceful, full hookup- what more could you ask for? Curt has an amazing thing going, it’s quite the gem. It was a privilege to stay at the property and enjoy the beauty yet simplicity. We stayed for a long weekend and went into both Savannah (30 mins away) and Hilton Head (1hr). Highly recommend!!

Americano (Van/RV/Car) - No Hookup

Don't Miss this Gem!

How to tell you how much we enjoyed Heirloom Hamlet?! There are not enough ways in the two languages I speak fluently! First of all, the little hamlet is just that. It's so pretty, well-laid out, and neat as a pin! Curt, the owner, has created it all by his own hand. There's a bathroom with a shower (hot or cold water, you chose), composting toilet (no smells...amazing), places to sit and enjoy the view! I cannot imagine a better place to stop and either just spend the night or spend a few days! We were just passing through so only had the one night, but I was sorry to hit the road again! And then there's Curt. What a consummate host he is. He's great at communicating before your stay (and a great sense of humor) and once you arrive, he's like a proud father showing you his "baby"...his project, his land. He's happy to share with those who come to stay. Don't miss this perfect oasis in the South Carolina country. If I could give him more than five stars, I would. And he would have earned it.

Great rv experience🚐

My husband and I loved the beautiful vision and property Curt provided. The Espresso Full hook up site was level and very clean. Enjoyed speaking with Curt and the directions he provided were very clear and easy to follow. Curt’s response time to any questions were answered quickly. We would stay again if passing through!
