Family woman's trip

We do a family women's trip every few years. We had 10 of us this year. The house had everything we could have needed. We loved the back screen porch for lounging around, and the outdoor shower! Also the walk to the beach and shops was not far.

Visit to Tybee

Funky House with Great Porch

Looks can be deceiving! When we arrived and saw the house, I was concerned. This was our first time in Tybee and we really didn't know what to expect. From the outside the house appears really rundown. But inside it's truly wonderful! The house is well-furnished, including the large diving room table which hosted game nights for us several evenings. And of course the large screened-in porch! We spent a lot of time relaxing and enjoying the quiet of the neighborhood.
