Location Wedding

Great place to stay if you don’t want a place directly on the beach. Reasonably priced and close to all beaches. Only problem we had was parking which only accommodates 2 cars but sleeps 10. Not to many families of 10 that would come together in just 2 cars.

Great house in a beautiful place

Loved this home! We stayed two weeks and explored the area. So much to see and do here, and the Low Country is beautiful. The house was located in a friendly, pretty, walkable neighborhood. The house itself was very spacious and comfortable.

Nice vacation house for a large family!

We really enjoyed our week in St. Simons at this property. We have a large family, with a wide age range of kids, and found this home very amenable. It's in a nice, quiet neighborhood. The screen porch in the back is a nice feature, and we liked the nook with the desk and also the half bath in the master bedroom. We had plenty of sleeping space, and the air mattress was a great addition in the bunk bed room for our littlest one. It was so convenient to the grocery store, and an easy drive to the beach. We would love to come back again!

Great Family Vacation Home

This property was great for our family. Clean, comfortable, great neighborhood, fully stocked kitchen, comfortable beds too. We especially liked the beach items....from chairs, umbrella, toys for the kids and even beach towels. The baby items were fantastic.....high chairs, booster seats, toys, and infant seats. We enjoyed St Simons Island to the fullest. The different restaurants, shopping by the pier, beautiful beach, and even a gorgeous sunset at the pier. Jekyll Island is nearby with lots to do as well. We highly recommend this vacation home and hope to come stay here in the future! Definitely a “happy place”!

Great for family

We enjoyed the space with 3 families! The rooms were a great layout and it worked perfectly for our needs. We were very happy with the little back porch, too! The only thing we were dissatisfied with was the cleanliness (or lack there of) of the floor! After a few minutes of walking around, we all had black feet and it was extremely sticky/sandy when we first arrived. However, everything else was very clean and was a great lay out!

overall good for the price

The location is convenient, rooms are big and it is decorated cute and had basic amenities. It holds 11 guest and there may have been one towel per person. It has a fenced in back yard. parking is minimal for size of house. The only time I attempted to contact mgmt the response was very slow and impersonal. We requested to check in one hour early because of traveling with so much perishable food but we got a generic response of no. Downtown St. Simons is very cute with shops and cafes to walk around and enjoy. Tramici restaurant was excellent food and service. Bike rentals were basic bikes with no shifts and you cannot take them on the beach.

Decent option with a few cons

House was very clean upon arrival and it’s suited our needs. No major complaints. When compared to a recent stay via VRBO in same city, it wasn’t as ideal — 1) sink and shower upstairs wouldn’t drain properly. Ended up making it dirty quickly. 2) we had to pay an extra $33 to check out at 2:00. All other VRBO had the later check outs granted free as a courtesy whenever it was available. 3) wouldn’t allow us to lower the thermostat below 70. If it were in the summer, this would be uncomfortable- we managed since it was a bit cooler this time of year. 4) this is clearly manged via another 3rd party service…not the owner. Only issue with this is a bit confusing to communicate as separate notifications, websites, etc used in addition to standard VRBO app/website. 5) Very limited parking that we were not aware of in advance. Requires really creative methods with 3 cars. Overall still a good weekend.

First time in St. Simons

We were very reluctant to stay here as no one had done a review prior to. Maybe because they didn't have anything nice to say, but I can only speak for my fiancé and I. We enjoy sitting out back on a patio when we stay at vacation rentals. THIS ONE.... gross. Everything was covered in Mold. There appeared to have been absolutely NO UPKEEP on the landscaping. The interior of the home is EXTREMELY dated, but appeared pretty clean. Carpet is in desperate need of replacement. Neighborhood is gorgeous, but THIS house sticks out like a sore thumb, sad to say it but we are Georgians(from North Ga) , but we just moved to the GA coast a couple of years ago. This was our first visit to St Simon's and it's a beautiful ISLAND! We enjoyed visiting and will DEFINITELY be back!! However unfortunately we won't be staying here again. Hopefully owner will make some upgrades and clean up the outside. The home has GREAT potential, but it's going to take a significant amount of elbow grease in the yard and a strong desire to make it better and do some upgrades, in order to get better reviews in the future. It could really be a beautiful home if owner takes the time to improve it. As I said it' s got Great potential!! Location is AWESOME

Tired

We started this stay with trepidation since we've stayed at homes managed by Vacasa and swore we would never do it again. However, the local manager for Vacasa was great & responsive, we needed her! Within 24 hours, there was something wrong with the hot water, as our showers had to be under 3 minutes. The handyman came and turned the hot water temp up, but it was still a problem. There was no way 4 people could take a shower and go out to dinner in the same night. Other issues - master bath fan out, one MB sink sprayed water all over (fixed). We tightened screws on the sliding doors, but still screws missing and the screens were ripped. Master bedroom closet door issue. In the other bathroom, (BTW it is a 2 1/2 bath home) the hot and cold water were switched. Refrigertor is in bad shape - missing door shelf holders, rendering many shelves useless. Serveral of the rugs are curled up at the edges - tripping hazard. The major issue - the neighborhood was doing work on their water/sewer lines and one day when we came home we had no water at all. It was resolved within a couple of hours, however, we only found out that we had to boil all the water for 24 hours from a neighbor. You would think that Vacasa or the owners would have let us know. When we go on vacation, we like to do what we want to - not get tired out from dealing with a house. Will not be back.

Cute but could use improvements

We enjoyed our stay. However the sewage for the house is stinky and the outside sewer is not covered very well at all and is located right beyond the driveway. The back porch is cute but smells like stale smoke so we couldn’t sit out there. Back yard could use some landscaping.

Great house!

This house was great for a multi family vacation! The bunk room was great for the kids and the Master bedroom could have easily fit a pack n play or 2. The kitchen was well-stocked and even had several extras that came in handy to get us through most of the week (coffee filters, dish washer detergent, laundry detergent). The back porch and backyard was small but offered a nice place to get away or for the kids to play games. The house is close to several good restaurants and golf courses. The drive to the beach and pier wasn’t bad at all.
