Fantastic location and a short walk to the beach.

Great little getaway spot, nestle among the oaks trees and palms. Beautiful mornings and evenings on the screened in porch. Awesome sunrises and sunsets.

So cute, and close to the beach

This spot was so close to the beach and we could also walk to the pier relatively easy. Ruthie was great to text with if I had any questions. It’s a small little place but if there’s not many of us, I will definitely stay here again.

Absolutely loved it

This cottage was fantastic and charming. Yes, charming means older, but it had everything needed and listed. Everything was clean, convenient, and we were in need of nothing. The communication was the best I have experienced with vrbo with questions, directions, ect answered before I needed to ask. The cottage is incredibly close to the beach. We will most definitely be staying there again.

Comfortable and nostalgic

We stayed here for Christmas week. The house is in a quiet residential neighborhood, with the beach about 100 feet away. The house was clean, comfortable and unfussy with a well outfitted kitchen. It reminded us a bit of places we stayed as children; there’s something comforting about it. We also liked the location—quiet but in easy walking (or driving) distance to restaurants and stores. Don’t miss Moo Cow Ice Cream. Great bird watching not far away if you’re into it too!

Great location!

You can walk to the beach in seconds and it's a half mile to the shopping/ eating part of the area. A condo is being constructed alongside the property as of August 2021, but they don't get working till 9 AM. Just be aware. It's a duplex, but we couldn't hear and never saw the other tenants. They park on the other side of the cottage. Lovely to sit on the porch, seemed private.

Just right for us...

The location was perfect. Once we settled in, we rented bikes and didn't need out car again until we drove to Jekyll Island for the afternoon. Walking distance to more restaurants than we needed and to the lighthouse and pier. We loved having our own space that the cottage provided- come and go without waiting on elevators, etc. The cottage was clean and had some nice touches- LOVED the king bed in the main bedroom. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the cookware and dishes needed to cook a Thanksgiving feast. The owner was extremely quick with responses. The only negatives would be a slight musty smell pretty standard in an older beach house and a few unsightly repairs. With a little attention to detail, the cottage could be impeccable.

Great place to stay if you are looking to be steps away from the beach! Rocking chairs on the screened in porch are just perfect to hear and see ( partial view) of the ocean!!

Prrfect

Easy and complete information about place and entrance. Clean. Everything I needed and more was there. Very easy walk to the beach. My favorite spot was the screened in porch sitting in the rocking chair with coffee watching the sunrise. Quiet neighborhood. Restaurants really close. Loved my stay. I can only give 5 stars but I would give many more. Hope I can come again loved it

St Simons Island

This cozy cottage is nestled in the most idyllic location, directly across the street from the Atlantic Ocean made for a lovely long weekend. The cottage has spacious bedrooms, living room, and a well appointed kitchen. The house faces the ocean with two perfect rockers for listening to the ocean while having your morning coffee, or enjoying an afternoon beverage. The cottage is located within walking distance to the pier, the lighthouse, and many adorable shops and restaurants. Could not imagine a better place to stay, and we have been to the island several times.

SSI spring getaway

We loved the proximity to the beach! Listening to the ocean while relaxing on the front porch is a pleasure too. We (2 adults and 2 kids) had a very enjoyable stay and we hope to come back someday. My intention isn't to nitpick the house but as a review, we felt the need to mention some issues that we noticed. Access to the second bedroom is through the master bedroom. There are 4 outside doors but only one can be opened with the key. A functional lock box would be a simple solution to having to keep up with the house key. The air conditioning is accomplished by two window units which can be a bit noisy at times. I probably should have picked up on some clues in the description but the house is a duplex. We commonly seek out a single dwelling since we are bringing two children.
