Steps from the Sand on Tybee's Back River Beach, Adorable 1920's Honeymoon Cottage

please google this title and make sure to ask the property manger and avoid visiting this beautiful little island on this weekend!!! basically 100,000 or so gangster/thugs visit this wonderful spot every year. we checked in on Friday 4/20/18 and thank you to some local business owners that gave us the heads up, so we could be prepared to get some food and supplies to be on lock down all day Saturday, as most of the businesses shutdown. one guy told us that he had to unexpectedly leave the Island on Saturday a couple years ago and it took him 14 hours to get back, so if we were going to leave, go early and don't plan on coming back. most of the drag racing, lowed music and activities were on the north end of the Island, so we did make the best of the day Saturday but our romantic weekend did suffer due to this annual infestation. as too end on a high note, the cottage was quaint, the property was gated, the location was great and the some what private beach was nice! Thanks, SDM

The cottage is adorable - small but perfect for my solo long weekend or for a couple. Loved the location - it felt very private even though it's at the back river fishing pier. No one in the main house during my stay so perhaps that would impact privacy but for me it was great. Lovely to sit and watch the river tides in and out, fantastic sunsets! Easy bike ride to the IGA and walk to restaurants and shops. I will stay again. Thanks!

Great location, steps to the sand. Comfortable furnishings. Great little kitchen. The intimate side deck with grill was handy and really nice. We loved the historic vibe. Sunsets spectacular to photograph and pleasing to view from the Adirondack chairs. We want to return.

The home is nice, but very dark in the evening. Not enough lamps to light up the room. Also they only provided 2 bath towels and wash cloths for 2 adults staying 2 nights. The air conditioning does not reach the kitchen or bathroom, so they were pretty warm in June! The Tybee Vacation Rental company that handles the rentals, called the night before we left, then also the morning we were supposed to leave at 8am to remind us of our departure time. I think most adults understand the rules without being pestered! They were very aggravating.

The location was fantastic - so close to the river beach! Would highly recommend, but bring all your own towels.

Such a beautiful spot right on the water, stunning sunsets, peaceful and calm waters with the ocean just a short walk away. Claw-foot tub (on the original listing I saw) has been converted into a very nice, modern tiled shower. Will definitely come again, and the rental agents were so accommodating and helpful. Very pleased.
