Pet Friendly • Fenced Yard & Porch for 8 • St. Simons Island
YOUR ST. SIMONS VACATION HOME Gone Coastal sleeps 8, has 3 legit bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a fenced yard so big your dog might come back enlightened. It’s the kind of beach rental where you spread out fast—kick off your shoes in the driveway, forget where you put your phone, and wind up on the porch an hour later holding court over last night’s ghost story.
You’re less than a mile from Southern Soul BBQ—close enough to smell the brisket—and just a short ride to Dulce Dough, where the island’s most dangerous doughnut sells out before noon. It’s a 7-minute drive to East Beach (1.8 miles to the Coast Guard Station), but honestly? The best parts are right here. A hammock under the trees. A palm in the yard that’s older than your playlists. A screened porch with room for eight, string lights, and zero bugs. If you’re doing it right, you’ll spend more time out there than anywhere else.
Inside holds its own: two king bedrooms, one queen, smart TVs in all of them, and a kitchen with a reading nook built for early risers or introverts mid-recovery.
SLEEP IN ON ST. SIMONS • Primary Bedroom: King bed, smart TV, dresser, ceiling fan, private ensuite • Second Bedroom: King bed, smart TV, closet • Third Bedroom: Queen bed, smart TV, backyard views • All bedrooms are on the main level (no stairs, snowbird sanctuary)

THE STARTER PACK Just enough to land, unpack, and hit the beach. • Dish soap + sponge • 1 roll of paper towels • 2 rolls of toilet paper per bathroom • 2 trash bags • 2 laundry pods • 2 dishwasher pods
THE FINE PRINT • No smoking, vaping, or lighting anything "fragrant" inside • Dogs allowed with $99 fee (max 2, 65 lbs each) • Private fenced backyard • Fireplace is decorative only • Minimum renter age: 25 • Primary renter must be present throughout stay • No parties, no events, or unexpected plot developments (just be cool, you know the drill) • If you think you need permission, just ask.

WHY EMMONS? We’re not a chain, and the corporate rulers of the vacation rental world will never tie us down. When something goes sideways, someone on the island picks up the phone—someone who knows what’s in the kitchen drawers and what’s hiding in the crawl space. We don’t charge for linens, soap, or basic human decency. And if something breaks, we make it right. Not because we have to. Because our childhoods were… surprisingly stable.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fenced private yard, and a coffee maker.

We made amazing beach memories
We loved staying at Gone Coastal and had a lovely time in St Simons. The property is quite spacious. Plenty of living/dining room seating. Kitchen is fairly well equipped and could accommodate several people in it at a time very comfortably. Our pup enjoyed the fenced in back yard and walks in the neighborhood.

Good cold AC
This wasn’t a bad stay for a few nights at the beach with a pretty decent price. It’s definitely not a glamorous place by any means - very sparsely stocked, zero to no rugs on the floor which was a little uncomfortable, and FYI, there is no hair dryer like what is advertised. There was some dirt left over from another pet on the bed and every now and then, you would get a whiff of old urine smell. However, we have a dog so I do appreciate it being dog friendly and there was a great fenced yard. Location was nice - not far from beach and pier. Overall, not a bad spot to lay your head for the night and get out of the heat
