We had a great week! This was our second year renting this property and once again we loved it. The house is so spacious and lovely. Four bedrooms with three full bathrooms were so great; lots of room for my kids to spread out. It was great to have two kitchens as our family tends to cook most nights on vacation. Upon our arrival, everything was sparkling clean. Easy walk to the beach. We had three generations of our family from 2 to 70 and each and every one of us had a great time. Owners were very quick to respond to our questions and provided us with lots of information to help make our vacation very enjoyable. We are looking forward to a return visit to this location next year. A wonderful vacation!

Wow what a great place for a family vacation. Our week at the house was a great experience. Everything about the house was exactly as advertised. The house was clean and everything was in good working order. The owner was very helpful, providing advice for enjoying our stay. All total, there were four families there for the week and the house provided all the room and comfort we needed.

Beach House

We returned from a most enjoyable long weekend! The home is in a wonderful location (north beach), just perfect for great walks! The neighborhood is residential, very quiet. Inside you will feel most comfortable with cozy places to sit and visit or other inviting spots to catch up on your reading. Plenty of room for our party of 7 adults both young and not-as-young! The beds were all comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. The kitchen was a wonderful place to cook and spend time together. The dining area was lovely too. The owner was most helpful and patient with answering my questions and with every step in the rental process! The entire home was immaculate upon arrival and we have absolutely no complaints. The house was amazing and I only hope that we can return in the future.

We stayed here for six nights in September and had a great experience. After a long drive from New York, arriving at the House and being met by the beautiful views and having the Sea right there was a trip well worth every mile. I read the great reviews on this house and booked it on the great comments. I am always a bit nervous trying a new property but I need not have worried. The house was the most amazing and relaxing place I have been to, it was clean and comfortable with all the amenities. Our vacation was a wonderful relaxing time and would love to return the next time we are in the area.

We recently spent a week in the house and were disappointed in the overall condition of the house as well as the cleanliness of the house upon our arrival. The pictures lead you to believe that this is a wonderful home at a great value with a short walk to the beach. The house is in terrible need of repair, both inside and out and is frankly not worth the premium price we paid for the week, which does not include internet service. Although the location on the north point of the island is very quiet and has a good view of the turtle pond, the nearest entry point to the beach is actually the place where the river and the ocean meet....not really a good beach spot. The other entry was all the way down the street and over the dunes, which was quite a walk for someone with small children. I would not stay in the house again unless the price was slashed significantly.

Owner response:This review comes as such a shock. Unfortunately some guests look for issues in order to get money refunded. They didn't contact us about a cleaning issues or something else during their stay and we have just good reviews about this house on North beach.

Our stay in this charming home was perfect. We spent the weekend with 2 other families and we all had a wonderful time. I would recommend this home to anyone looking for a family get together. There's lots of room and you won't feel like you are right on top of each other and was very we'll kept. Its so close to the beach and convenient to restaurants and shopping. We definitely hope to be able to vacation here again!

The perfect house

Our family had a fantastic and relaxing vacation at this house. The house itself was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We especially enjoyed the patio. Every night we would sit under the stars. This is a great home and near so many beautiful places to visit. Our family had a great time. We stayed 7 days and didn't want to leave. The home has everything you need. You can cook at home, BBQ or go out to the local restaurants, all nearby. Thank you for sharing your home with us and we hope to return one day.

We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful, perfectly located property. We spent hours sitting inside,outside,looking across the water, at the boats/ships ranging from canoes to huge cargo ships. The house and amenities exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend it for family groups.

I am happy to comment on this listing, which was a pleasant surprise after the original one I had chosen was taken. This place was amazing. A wonderful house to come home to from the hot sun. Beautiful natural surroundings and lovely accomodations made our stay wonderful. We look forward to our next visit.

We stayed one week and we had an amazing time. The house really made the trip.A gentle reminder of the beauty and simplicity we often miss around us when there are other distractions. Captain's View gave our family a place to focus on that beauty and one another - it's been a fantastic departure from the norm. Your house is so well appointed, you've thought of everything! Just a darling place, sure many will enjoy it. The only way it could have been better is if it was ours! Thank you so much.

Our family spent a week here last summer and we're coming back... We had the best time!! The house is huge, clean and beautiful. We enjoyed the shopping, boating, fishing and most of all just relaxing. Our family made memories here that are precious and will last a lifetime. I'm hoping that we make it an annual vacation! THANK YOU!!

Extremely enjoyable, peaceful stay. It was the most serene, quiet section on the ocean we've ever experienced. No commerciality at all! The house was clean and comfortable with all the amenities. The Master Bedroom suite where you could watch the sunrise upon waking was gorgeous. With the washer/dryer right there, it couldn't be easier with children. Well worth the money.

We couldn't have asked for a more relaxing week or a more fantastic place to stay. The house is wonderful and went beyond our expectations. The breathtaking view is amazing, and we felt at home in this priceless little piece of paradise. Can't wait to go back!

Vacation & Home all in one word. Most everything you need is already here, all is open & airy & just plain comfortable. The location is perfect with river & ocean just blocks away (right out the back door) & the turtle pond. All the turtles & birds know humans feed them & they are sitting ready when you walk across the bridge. We just hate to leave (it's been great), all in all it is so peaceful and quiet. It was a lot better than we ever dreamed it would be. The Crafts

It's been a wonderful week and we're all sad to be leaving. We had a fabulous family reunion at your awesome beach house. It's so nice and spacious. Perfect for our extended family. We spent lots of time at the house since it rained all week. We will forever have great memories of this special bonding time. Thanks so much for sharing your home with us.

The notorious Crazy 8's thoroughly enjoyed our time on Tybee Island. The location is perfect for access to the beach & Savannah. While we didn't win the lottery, we go away with another chapter of delightful memories to all to our 27+ years of friendship. Go 8's!

This is a great house. The kitchen could be updated and carpet cleaned more often. Overall this is on the beach and beautiful.
