But the true allure of this rental lies outdoors, where the private dock extends an invitation to explore the natural wonders of the North Newport River, Sapelo Sound, and St Catherines Island. Whether your catch comes after a trip to the gulfstream, your favorite redfish hole, or right off the dock you will enjoy the convenience of the built in fish cleaning station and the shade provided by the roof overhead. Whether you're a fan of fishing, boating, or simply enjoying the gentle sway of the water with a cocktail, the dock provides a front-row seat to unforgettable sunsets and the soothing symphony of dolphins playing.
As the sun rises over Colonels Island, your mornings are destined to be tranquil and invigorating. Sip your coffee on the deck in a rocker while soaking in the breathtaking views, or take a leisurely stroll down to the Half Moon Marina and store.

The view is incredible. We saw dolphins almost every night. Loved sitting on the back porch looking at the water. It’s a well kept fenced in yard. It was private and peaceful. The host was so kind. She thought of everything before we arrived with our little Yorkie. There was a dog bed. A leash and bowls in case we forgot anything. We hope to return in the future.
Our family, including the fur babies, had the best time staying in this home. We spent countless hours fishing from the dock and soaking up the beautiful views from the back porch. The host is wonderful and ensured that our stay was perfect. We look forward to returning soon.
Everything was immaculate and Julie checked with us throughout our stay to ensure all was to our expectations and let us know we could reach out to her at anytime if we needed anything or had any questions. I would 100% recommend this property.
Our family really enjoyed our vacation! The house was very clean and well-kept, and Julie was great to work with! We can't wait to visit again in the future!
Had a great time. Loved the huge fenced yard for our senior dog, and the nice dog beds! Clean, everything we needed. Great relaxing view from the dock and a spectacular sunset!

I’m so glad you enjoyed your time and caught some fish. I really hope to have you guys again.
I loved it. The space is beautiful, the dolphins come right to the dock, and the owner is really wonderful. Oh, and my dog loved having access to a dog door so no late night walks. Will rent again.
Property was exactly as described—roomy, well-stocked, and very clean. Our time there was peaceful—just what we needed. And Julie was great to deal with. Definitely worth staying again next time we’re in the area.

Thank you so much Janet, looking forward to hosting you again!
My family (dogs included) had the most relaxing and amazing stay. The host Julie went above and beyond to make the stay perfect. The cleanliness and cute little touches she left for us around the house made it such a great stay. Highly recommend!! We loved seeing the dolphins everyday too :)
We loved our vacation in Georgia! Our host was very welcoming, helpful and pleasant. The view from our location was beautiful and watching for dolphins to swim by was a highlight. The people in the neighborhood were were very friendly and helpful too. The location was also nice for day trips to Savannah. Great stay!
My son proposed to his girlfriend while we stayed here and the water view made beautiful photos! We had a great time! The host was super nice and very easy to communicate with. Would definitely stay here again.
We had a wonderful time staying at this beautiful home. The view is absolutely amazing! We had the best time catching black drum and sheep head off the dock. We were able to bring our two dogs with us. I think they loved it as much as we did. We made alot of wonderful memories on this trip. Julie is absolutely amazing and is so kind. We can't wait to come back again!
