Systems throughout the house are getting upgrades and we will have a fresh coat of paint throughout the interior. Current photos are all prior to renovations, with new photos coming in early spring. Bedroom and bathroom counts on this listing are for the post renovation floor-plan. Message us for latest pictures, we would love to share with prospective guests!
Our private, screened pool is the certainly the highlight of the summer season. Play a game of corn hole pool side, float with a beverage or dive for toys.
In cooler months, the patio is still a marvelous place to relax and enjoy the outdoors. The pool is open year round with a heater that should keep it swim-able in cool weather, but will not be able to keep up during cold spells. The heater is set to 84, and should not be adjusted or tampered with by guests. Service charges will apply if reprogramming is required.

About the host
Hosted by Peter Churchill
We live in central North Carolina with two adult children who are looking forward to future travels to the Georgia coast.
Why they chose this property
I have had a connection to the Golden Isles since the late 70s when my grandparents retired to St. Simons Island. While the area, as a whole, has grown and developed since that time, Jekyll Island has luckily not kept the same pace as the others. In some wonderful ways, it is a bit of a time machine. Purchasing a home here is one of the many steps in my own retirement plan, which may take quite some time to fully complete. As the plan evolves, we plan to share this lovely home with family, friends and, perhaps, you?
What makes this property unique
Centrally located on the western side of Jekyll we are well positioned for adventures that many miss. The wildlife along the marsh is abundant and often unfearing of us as observers and companions.
