Great location near beach

The house was as described. Very nice lived in feeling with plenty of room for our adult party of 6 and 3 children. The kids loved the pool. The back porch is great. We’d stay again.

The perfect place to stay!

I really hope we're able to stay here every year for our annual beach trip. A very short walk to the beach, a ton of space for our two small families, separate tv room for the kids, it was perfect!!

Classic

We had a lovely stay at this classic beach house on St. Simon’s island. It has a very homey feel, was very close to the beach and to the amenities on the island. Would stay here again.

Great family vacation

The house was very well appointed for a large multifamily vacation. The location was very close to the beach entrance and part of the walk is shaded. We all had plenty of space in the house.

Great stay!

We've been coming to SSI for a few years, and this was our favorite property. It's family-friendly, with great gathering space and a lovely backyard pool. It's as close to the beach as you'll get on this part of SSI.

Family Yearly Vacation

This is a perfect place to stay. The close walk to the beach was great. Having the pool made it nice for those who couldn't go to the beach. Loved having coffee on the porch every morning. Would love to stay here next year if available.
