Walk to Pier & Iguanas • Accidental Ocean Flavored Drinks • St. Simons
YOUR ST. SIMONS VACATION HOME
Welcome to Bertie’s Nest—a two-bedroom, 1.5-bath St. Simons vacation rental in the historic Kings Terrace neighborhood, just a mile from the Village. Close enough to hear the ship bells ring from the pier and smell the hushpuppies at Iguanas. You’re walking distance to Neptune Park and the pier, around the corner from live music at Palm Coast, and imagining the day's seafood binge by 10am just means you're fresh to the catch.
Inside, Bertie’s Nest feels like a page out of a story you didn’t know you’d want to reread—layered in charm, light, and the kind of comfort that doesn’t try too hard. There are two living areas (because the best beach rentals should have room to stretch), a sun-bright dining nook, a fully equipped kitchen, and two classic Queen bedrooms that bookend an updated bath with a walk-in shower and built-in bench.
The second living room doubles as a sunroom and bonus lounge with a futon, smart TV, and a separate half bath and laundry room. It’s the perfect place to crash after mini golf at Neptune Fun Zone or to cool off after a bike ride to East Beach.
Outside, the magic keeps going. The shaded back patio has a ceiling fan, café table, and plenty of room to sit, sip, or let your day unravel naturally. Across the street? A grassy park lined with towering live oaks. It's not on a brochure—yet.

WHY EMMONS?
Bertie’s Nest is managed by Emmons Realty—the most-reviewed vacation rental company on St. Simons Island. We’re local. Family-run. And always just a call or text away. We don’t believe in shortcuts or copy-paste hospitality. Our homes are clean, our standards are high, and when something goes wrong (because Murphy's is just around the corner), help is typically about a mile away. We show up for the showdown.
