About this property

Charming Cottage located near the Village Area!

This island beach home offers all the luxury, warmth and charm needed to enjoy our wonderful island. Located in the desirable village area, it is less than three blocks from the ocean, lighthouse, pier, Neptune Park Pool, St. Simons Park, and village shops, playgrounds and restaurants. All of your vacation activities are just a short stroll away.

Tastefully decorated to accentuate all of the builders upgrades, this is our home away from home. There is a plush king, plush queen, two singles, and a fold-out couch to accommodate up to seven sleeping guests. Each bedroom has its own private bathroom with shower, and the downstairs master also has an oversized tub. We even have Wi-Fi access so you can stay connected to the real world if you have to. We hope you enjoy all of the little things we have provided so that adults and families can enjoy it as much as we do.

For those who have never been to St. Simons, it is the most peaceful beach destination there is. It is not commercialized, and very relaxing. Historic sites, village shopping, a lighthouse, fishing from the pier for fishermen and site seers alike, and many restaurants all within walking distance of our home. There are several beautiful public and private golf courses on the island. For those who want to enjoy the ocean acitivities or intercoastal waterway; swimming, boating, charter fishing and kayaking are all near by.

Complete with everything needed to enjoy a few weeks on the island, or just an extended weekend getaway, our place is perfect for family or couples. We're sure you will love it!

Great location, relaxing weekend

We were 2 couples meeting at SSI from ATL and SC. The cottage was clean in all the important places - beds and baths, kitchen. Although older it is cute and so very convenient to the lighthouse and village. The Porch Restaurant and Three Little Birds are a block or 2 away and so is ice cream! Have a cocktail at the lighthouse at sunset! Walk at the nearby park. It is a dreamy setting. Stay here! Sit on the porch and relax. Owners are great to deal with.

Comfortable older cottage close to beach and village

We had a wonderful two-week stay on St. Simons Island and enjoyed being able to walk to the village and its pier from this cottage in a quiet neighborhood. The cottage was just as advertised and the owners were easy to communicate with and very accommodating. We would definitely stay here again!

Charming St. Simons House

Excellent location, on quiet residential street in beautiful neighbourhood with live oaks, just a few minutes walk from centre of St, Simons village and beach. Charming house, conveniently set up for family group. We enjoyed having breakfast and afternoon drinks on the porch.

Great location

Here are the pros and cons of the house. We were able to handle all the cons without a call to management/owner. I assume some of the stuff the owner may not be aware of. The pros: 1. The location was awesome. 2. Walking distance to the pier, shops, and food. 3. 3 bedroom with space to spread out. 4. Plenty of floats, chairs and sandcastle making items. 5. AC was cold (bbbrrr). 6. Washer and dryer worked wonderfully. 7. Large front porch. 8. Master on main and plenty of room with a comfortable bed. The cons: 1. Parking for 1 vehicle only. We parked other vehicles in a parking a lot up the street (rented a golf cart). 2. Main bathroom on second floor shower did not work (2 showers up there so not a big deal). 3. The house was dirty. (Sand on the floors and couch). 4. No yard. 5. No extra sheets, towels, or linens. 6. Internet was in and out (not a big deal as I used my hotspot while I had to work). 7. Large stain on the carpet upstairs. (Not a deal breaker by any means( 8. The house smelled like a closed up basement. A. There was an air purifier but the change filter light was on. We cleaned it out the best we could. B. Normally wouldn’t bother me, but my daughter has allergenic asthma and mold, dust and such cause it to act up. I would suggest if you stay here, get there early enough to open windows to air it out, bring cleaning stuff and your own linens and towels. This is what we did on day 2 of our 6 days was clean and air out.

Great!!

We had a great time for our long weekend stay! Check in was super easy, and communication with owner was quick and efficient. House was close to the pier area and we really enjoyed the front porch- only one chair and a swing which can seat two. We used our bag chairs that we keep in our car too. Overall, great house and we will be returning soon!

Enjoyable long weekend

Very nice stay for adults and children, house very clean, stocked well for us. The location is very nice, quiet but a short walk to restaurants, shopping, the lighthouse and pier. We walked with small children easily. Love sitting on the front porch swing to wind down at the end of the day or beginning for coffee time. Games and books stocked (all my favorites), No issue for us with hot water, beds comfortable. I recommend it for families and I am sure we will visit again.

A lovely week

We went to St Simons Island for the first time this Spring break. The cottage was charming and very well located. Everything was very well organised and stress free. Restaurants, ice cream parlor and town are in walking distance. The beach as well although we chose to go to the public beach which was a five minute drive away. Unfortunately the weather was not as warm as we had hoped for but we still managed to search for the spirit trees, bike and visit Jekyll island as well as long walks on the beach. We had a great time and will definitely come again!

Fish Fever Cottage Stay

The property is charming and well laid out for a family. My Mom and I were downstairs and my daughter and two grandsons were upstairs. Ample room for relaxing and game playing. I so enjoyed being able to walk to the beach, pier, pool, playground, and mini-golf with the kids whenever I wanted. Also enjoyed a couple of walking distance restaurants with friends who live locally. All in all it was a wonderful visit and we would love to stay agian.

Great family stay!

Debbie was very helpful & has a beautiful cottage! You can easily walk to the pier village, water park, or the beach, and the public beach access is a quick drive away. We had everything we needed for a home away from home! In planning, I would recommend the pull out sofa for The smaller, lighter ones in your crew. Otherwise, all of the beds are super-comfy! We will definitely come back!!

Fantastic location; beautiful and quaint

We have always loved SSI, but thoroughly enjoyed staying on this quaint little lane with the Spanish moss-draped trees and proximity to the village! We did load up the car to drive down to enter the beach via Massengale Park and then further on down the island at Gould's Inlet. There is plenty of room in the cottage to visit, cook, sleep, play games, do laundry, etc. There is no yard per se, but there is a beautiful park nearby if you want to play yard games or toss a football. Loved the swing on the front porch!

Home nestled under beautiful live oak trees

We really enjoyed our stay in SSI and loved the location of the home - it’s quick and easy to get to the beach and shops/restaurants in town. Nestled under live oaks, the home is on a quiet side street and comfortably appointed. Debbie and Greg were great hosts!
