Laid Back Comfort in St Simon's
We had a fun and relaxing girls trip. There were 5 of us who travelled from Texas & California. Heron cottage was very well equipped and set up perfect for the two 2 year olds who were travelling with us. They loved the kids corner under the stairs & especially loved the pool time. The house was nicely located not far from the beaches, fun activities, & food. Bike rentals were easy and worked great! We wish we had spent our last 2 days at Heron Cottage rather than Hilton Head Island. We absolutely loved St. Simons Island and our stay at Heron Cottage. Thanks for a Great Stay.......
