Pictures are true!

The house is true to the pictures and was a great stay. The tub on the primary bathroom was very relaxing. Lots of lounging space in the living room. The bicycles were an unexpected treat and the beach gear and toys came in handy and added to the fun.The location is away from the hustle and bustle but within a 10 minute drive to the beach, historic locations, and stores.We loved this house and St. Simons Island!

Beautiful Home

This is a beautiful home with updated amenities and quality accoutrements. It was everything the owner depicted in the pictures. The community it sits in is well maintained and the public pool and pond are pristine. The home is a short walk away from Epworth by the Sea and a historical site of two slave homes. We spent a lot of evenings watching the sunset at these two locations. There is a disk golf course, dog park, and a paved walking path within walking distance as well. The homeowner provided single speed bicycles with the home. We were able to tour the entire island on these bikes and some of the beautiful neighborhoods. There are lots of great places to eat and several public beach accesses. I highly recommend working with this owner if you wish to have a peaceful time away from the business of the town and beach village.

Great location and spaces for our family weekend getaway

Met all of our needs: overall clean and tidy, had plenty of supplies, comfortable beds and seating. The community is nice and friendly. We enjoyed having the backyard grassy run for our dog. The pool, a bit chilly in Oct, yet area was clean and not too busy. The location is ideal as it is walking distance to the marina, park, and disc golf course. Highly recommend!
