Great location and plenty of room

The house was walking distance from the village and the beach. Excellent location. Very spacious. The house was beautiful but could use updating and also more seating in the tv room. There was one sofa and 2 chairs. With 4 bedrooms, we had 4 couples and that was not enough seating for 8 people. All in all, the house was comfortable.

Fabulous Memories

B. B. Shelander's home in St. Simon, GA was a perfect remedy for our family of eight adults to get over the Covid-19 blues! The house is centrally located for walks and bike rides in the wonderful live oak forested area. Two blocks from town was great for the shoppers. Our group enjoyed Happy Hour on the porch, especially when it rained so we could hear the rain in the trees. Thanks for the great memories, B.B.

Wonderful property.

Beautiful home in a quiet neighborhood. Easy water access. My family came in for a wedding with events stretching from Ocean Forest to the Lodge. Very conveniently located. We also had two infant grandchildren, the house was quiet with plenty of room. Very well furnished kitchen with plenty of extras, trash bags laundry detergent etc. Probably the best coffee maker I’ve experienced lately. The best of all, besides the magnificent Mahogany floors are the large front porches. We enjoyed many hours of great family time perched among the Live Oak trees. Also the elevator came in very handy when Mom came by to visit. Highly recommend!

Little dissapointing

The property had a good location. Able to walk everywhere. It was not on the beach or were you able to sit near it. You could see the water from the second floor veranda. The home had ample space for all of us. We were 9 total. I just think the home is tired and worn and needs to be cared for a little better. I don't think we received a spotless home considering the cleaning fee that I had to pay for. The shower in the 3rd floor master had mold on the hand held unit that has been there for awhile. So if you don't mind the "old" and worn finishes then this is a place for a large group. Otherwise don't spend the money.

Elegant Coastal Comfort

Beautifully and comfortably furnished. The 3 king and 2 twin bedrooms were just right for our group. The mirrored exercise room on the ground floor was a big hit for the young folk and the porches on the second and third floors were great for both getting away and gathering and relaxing. Easy walk to town for shopping and eating and to the beach.

Big house within walking distance of village, lighthouse & beach

At SSI for our son’s wedding and in need of large, gracious home for family & friends and this suited us perfectly. Easy walking distance to village and beach made it easy for everyone to come and go. Top it all off with a property blessed with the oaks this area is well-known for and a great recipe for a wonderful stay!

Family Fun

This home is in a wonderful location for all ages. Short (less than five minute) flat walk to the village. All ages could find something to do in the village whether at the pier, playground, shops or restaurants. The house was as described. Two large porches for sitting, patio with grill, and fully furnished kitchen. The elevator was a great way to move luggage in and out. The property contact, BB, was wonderful and always responded quickly. We hope to stay there again.

Great stay!! Amazing family reunion

Great spot! Kinda tricky with the location of the beach close to us depending on high tide or low tide. Recommend to rent golf carts to get to the other beach on 7th street. Dryer did not work so hopefully they fix it Amazing house though and huge! Would rent again.

Gorgeous home for girls trip!

Our group of 9 girls thoroughly enjoyed this gorgeous and well maintained multi-level home. There is ample room to spread out, but also room to comfortably gather, relax and hang out. The huge porches with comfortable seating was our favorite spot. Highlight was the location - quiet and peaceful neighborhood near the water, and a 5 minute walk to the quaint town with coffee, shops, restaurants, and the pier. Appreciated the communication with the host- gracious and responsive. Highly recommend this home!

Friends from Canton

We had a wonderful experience in this gorgeous home. The decks were perfect to sit out and read a book or relax. The rooms were very nice and large. Great accommodations for lots of privacy but great kitchen are to gather in for cocktails before heading to the pier for dinner/. Highly recommend this property.

Great space for today's health considerations

Thoroughly enjoyed staying here. It was a "home base" for my daughter's wedding, and the spaciousness of the home and the porches was perfect in this covid-conscious time. We had plenty of room for guests and family to socialize but at safe distance. A very comfortable spot for enjoying St. Simons with adult children and extended family.

Just magnificent home

The property is very elegant filled with beautiful antiques and exquisite art. It is quite large but very intimate areas family to gather. Many bonuses like a gym, piano and elevator. Huge master suite on top floor with fabulous bathroom. It is a majestic generational family home with a host who thinks of everything to accommodate your stay. Close to everything. We loved it

Highly Recommend!

Great meeting point to share with family members from all over to celebrate my daughter’s birthday at the beach. The house was better than advertised. Lounging on the spacious balconies amid the beautiful oaks and feeling the ocean breeze in the mornings and evenings was better than any resort! The house had all amenities we needed and more. Some of the things not mentioned here include various book cases with a diverse library of books and beautiful artwork in every room including originals by the owner/host himself. Our best VRBO experience yet.

Family Get Together

We had a great time on SSI. So much to do and experience from fishing to horseback riding, seeing the island via golf carts. Lots of fun restaurants and shopping. The house was spacious and allow everyone their space. We spent every night on veranda watching sunsets. Would absolutely come again.

Beautiful Spacious house

Some of information published was not accurate. Queen bed was actually a double bed. Some amenities were not provided. The week of our stay was very noisy; continuous leaf blowers starting at 7 am and the airport (which is a given when planes are flying over). Only stating this if you are expecting a calm quiet setting!
