Plans to convert a two-story antebellum house in Bluffton, South Carolina, into a bed and breakfast are being met with a mixed reaction. According to a story in the Beauford (South Carolina) Gazette, the home's owner renovated the 1850 building last year and would like to open it as a B&B. It once served as a boarding house for travelers. The chairman of the local planning commission said of the idea, "It would help build up the core of old town."
