Map & Owner's Profile
Four Oaks Cottage
Year Purchased: 1998
Why the Owner Chose Private Homes
I had been visiting St Simons since the early 80's and fell in love with my cottage at first sight. Didn't even look at any other properties. I was riding my bike with my niece and nephew from our base at the Sea Gate Inn and there it was, nestled under these beautiful huge live oaks. I am always working on making it better each year.
The Unique Benefits at this Cottage
Being able to walk to the beach anytime is great. Having the tide roll in and out adds such interest. I enjoy riding my bike, sitting under the oaks, walking my dog and visiting with friends and neighbors. I go to my favorite restaurants in the village, including hanging out at the neighborhood coffee shop/wine bar. I just enjoy the relaxing atmosphere and the beauty of the coast.
Owner's Map of Private Homes
I immediately fell in love with my cottage and the live oaks it's nestled under - I always loved the beach, but having both trees and the water, as well as the history in the area, this was the perfect place. There is so much to do on the island and the surrounding coastal area. I love the fact that the pier/village is so close and to be able to walk to the water anytime is wonderful. It's amazing when there is a full moon shining on the water. I have my favorite restaurants and coffee shop where I always run into someone I know or will know better soon.

My husband and I spent our anniversary week at the Four Oaks Cottage and it couldn't have been more relaxing and perfect! Close proximity to all the good restaurants, village shopping, and OCEAN! We walked 1- 1/2 blocks to Ocean Lodge Inn for a rooftop, ocean view, glass of wine during a full moon. So convenient. The house has a terrific floor plan and is the epitome of beach cottage decor. We hope to come again and enjoy this home and it's perfect location.

A cute cozy cottage, Very quiet and relaxing. Owner made sure everything was right. Close to everything but afforded the privacy for a nice relaxing weekend. Not on Ocean Blvd which was great. Easy for Bike riding and close enough to walk to the beach. We will be back. Looking forward to the New room being added.

Enjoyed our stay at Four Oaks Cottage. The cottage is spacious and clean and and sits in a very quiet neighborhood. Only a short walk to the beach and close to the pier/lighthouse and shops. Debbie was very responsive to questions I had regarding booking our trip to St. Simons.

"It was such a pleasure to spend our month's vacation at Four Oaks Cottage. This spacious cottage is nestled in a quiet residential area is within 2 very short blocks of the ocean and a easy stroll to the charming village. The house is well equipped and the owner was truly interested in our comfort and satisfaction. The island itself has SO much to offer with broad beaches, amazing restaurants, unique shops, a wide choice of golf courses and wealth of history to investigate. With it's charming feeling of "Coastal Living," Four Oaks Cottage is the perfect spot from which to enjoy a delightful holiday on beautiful St. Simons Island."

Our family had a lovely week at St. Simons and enjoyed staying at this cottage very much. Owner very responsive to needs. Great size for our family (2 adults, one child) -- close to beach and village. We rode our bikes but could also walk, esp. to small public access beach just 5 min away. Quiet neighborhood, too. Definitely recommend Four Oaks to couples/small families! Thanks Debbie!
