Looking for accomodations for about 10 people for several days or possibly the entire week of 2/18-2/25/2012. Attending stepson's USMC graduation on 2/24/2012 - tough to miss our traditional courrir de Mardi Gras on 2/21 but c'est la vie.
I'm a member of Intervals International with weeks on deposit so I checked with Intervals and saw units at several Marriott resorts on Hilton Head available for exchange. According to Google Map, HIlton Head is at least an hour drive from Parris Island so we would also be willing to consider renting houses or timeshares in the Beaufort area. Does anyone have any suggestions about rentals?
My stepson's USMC graduation is the primary purpose for this trip but we've never been to the Low Country and since Mardi Gras is a holiday with a short work-week here in Louisiana, we could spend the entire week instead of just flying in and out for the graduation. It looks like most of the resorts listed with Intervals for exchange are part of the Marriott group so I assume most of them are at least OK. Do any Tuggers who are familiar with this area have recommendations of where to stay -- or where to avoid?
How about recommendations for eating? We're Cajuns so food is important and we need seafood for Ash Wednesday.
