Highland House Getaway

The house was immaculate, convenient to stores, and a short drive to beach. The house was updated in the kitchen, both bathrooms and laundry room. Huge and private back yard. My friends and I agreed we would rent again.

Another Great Saint Simons Getaway

We love Saint Simons Island and have returned for our annual family vacation for nearly 15 years. This property enhanced our 2023 getaway. The management company and VRBO made finding this property, check in and check out seamless. The management company was very responsive to our every need. The home was spotless, just as advertised. There were even a few extras we did not anticipate, like real ground coffee for our first few mornings, very nice dish-ware (Royal Daulton), well over a hundred DVD’s and much more. Plenty of sheets and comforters for the comfy beds, plenty of towels and face cloths. Each room is tastefully decorated. Lots of hot water and great water pressure for our after beach day showers. We were well pleased. Thank you!

Perfect Getaway

Myself and some family met up here to surprise my mom with a little birthday getaway. The house was perfect! It was very clean and in a quiet tucked away neighborhood, but it wasn’t far to any of the spots on the island. Can’t wait to visit again!

Property was clean and well equipped. There was a problem with water pressure in the guest shower and problems using the keypad to open the front door. The keypad likely should be replaced.
