Three Friends Cottage is one of St. Simons' most spectacular vacation homes, located second position from the ocean in St. Simons finest vacation home neighborhood, Coast Cottages.

The bottom level has 3 bedrooms, two with a queen bed and one with two twins, along with another sleeper sofa in the den. Updated furnishings pamper you in every room, from the separate den (a great place for the kids to watch movies) to the ultra-spacious living/dining/kitchen level.

My girlfriends and I rented Three Friends Cottage May 16 thru the 19th. It was an amazing house. None of us could come up with a single negative comment. All the bedrooms were perfect for our group. Especially the master suite. The master bathroom is so spacious and spa like. Even though we didn't do much cooking, the kitchen is very nice and had everything you could need. The cottage doesn't have a view of the ocean, but, it's just a short walk down the walkway. The pools are very nice too. One of our favorite things is the elevator. We are all in our sixties, so, it was super nice not to have to deal with the stairs all the time. I highly recommend this house for a relaxing get away in beautiful St. Simons Island!

Beautiful

We loved the 3 Friends Cottage. It was very close to the pool and beach. The elevator was a game changer for when we were loading or unloading or just too tired to take the stairs. Beautifully decorated and plenty of room - we could be together or find a private nook for reading. Should we return to SSI; I know where we will stay.

A great week at the beach!

Warm ocean breezes, an amazing private beach with life guards, all the items needed for a fantastic week. The house is well appointed for families with living areas on all levels. The upstairs shower was awesome!! We went out to eat a lot this trip and we found lots of great spots for fresh seafood. The bowls at Fiddler’s were fan favorites!

Amazing house

We stayed for a week at the Three Friends Cottage with 10 family members and had a wonderful time. We made extensive use of the wide beach within easy walking distance and the swimming pool at the end of the street. The house has lots of interesting architectural features and an extravagant primary bath. We had a couple of appliance problems, but they were addressed very promptly by the property manager. The living space is spread over three floors and elevated one floor above the ground, so we got plenty of exercise on the stairs.

We loved the house and Coast Cottage neighborhood! The elevator was great for my older parents. The house is spacious and absolutely beautiful. We really enjoyed being so close to the pool and beach. The house has everything you need including beach towels, beach chairs, beach toys and a wagon. The deck was wonderful for coffee in the mornings and just hanging out during the day or night. We hated to leave but hope to stay at 5 Coast Cottage again next year!

Belated Friendsgiving

We arrived Friday for a late Friendsgiving weekend. The house was cozy, warm and welcoming. Kitchen was sufficiently stocked with all of our cooking needs for a feast. Perfect location, quick drive to downtown and grocery. Comfy beds. We would have preferred the downstairs living space to have a regular bed instead of the pull out sofa because that would have been more comfortable and the living room on main floor hosted all of our entertainment needs for our group. This was a perfect place for our group of 9 to enjoy quality time together.

House was perfect for our needs... The secondary bedrooms were a little tight for sharing but close friends it worked out. Disappointed is was not direct oceanfront as we thought but a birds eye view from a couple rooms. Close proximity to beach walkover was literally out the front door by a few feet.

Good but not what we anticipated

We were very excited to stay at 3 Friends Cottage. There was 6 of us in total (2 elderly adults, 2 adults, 2 children). The check in process was very easy and communication about the details of the property were good. We had been notified that the property was having issues with one of the ovens, which was fine as there was two. Once we got there we realized the second oven didn't really work either, which limited cooking options. Luckily, they had a grill outside and we used that for a few meals. The refrigerator also started alarming the second day we were there and beeped every so often. It was a bit annoying (especially at night) and they did provide us with gift certificates to Southern Soul BBQ to make up for the inconvenience. To be fair, when we contacted the property management about the issues, they stated the owners were in the process of updating the appliances. All in all the property is nice and the kitchen had everything else you would need to stay for the week (dishes, cook ware, etc). The house seemed to be clean except for the dishwasher and under the beds that looked like they had not been cleaned in a very long time. We had two big disappointments about the propertyand our reservation. First was that the master bed was super firm and what we called "Rock hard". After two nights of not sleeping we found an extra twin mattress pad on the first floor and put it on one side of the king bed and then used all the extra pillows as a pad on the otherside. The other beds were not as bad, but not the best either. The biggest disappointment was that it is listed as having a water/beach view which is technically accurate but in my opinion should not be listed as such. To see the beach and water you have to stand at the very corner of the deck and lean forward to see the beach or you must be in the master shower and open the shades to see it. Either way, not what we expected for a water view home. The home all in all met many of our needs such as outdoor space to relax, having an outdoor shower, and having an elevator for the elderly adults which was a nice option (even though we really didn't use it). It is a nice house and has a lot to offer, but in my opinion it is not listed accurately and with the current condition of things is very overpriced. We had a very nice vacation, but will not be staying there again.
