We enjoyed the stay very much. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything that you could possibly want. beds were very comfortable . The seating in the common area is very comfortable, and the televisions worked very well however, there were no televisions in two of the bedrooms. The condo was convenient to the city and easily accessible . We did not use the pool facilities at all. We would stay there again.

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!

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!
