Thanksgiving on Tyber

We had an amazing stay in this beautiful home. It was probably one of my family's favorite houses we've ever rented for a vacation.

My family loved staying here! The house is airy and comfortable. It’s an amazing historic home and well kept. Lots of space for people to work and play. Hosts were very communicative and very helpful. I’d love to come back with my family again! Close walk to a beach, plenty of seating inside and outside.

Perfect Spring Break

What a charming beach home! My family and I really enjoyed our stay here for the week. The host was very accommodating and friendly. We had one small hiccup regarding the water heater, but they had someone out to fix it almost immediately. I would definitely stay here again!

Spring break 2022

First off, love the location and the home. All the lovely features of a turn of the century with plenty of space for my family of seven. There were quirks and it just made it fun. Overall it was a pleasurable stay!

Love the charm!

The house was very charming and the location was nice. The front porch was wonderful. The house does need some updates. The sinks in the bathrooms were rusty and not in good working order. The couches need updated and the dining room rug was very dirty. There was plenty of space to move around and the beds were comfortable.

That house should NOT be rented to anyone. Anywhere there was sitting material (couches, dining room chairs, rugs on floors, etc), they were horribly stained and looked disgusting. The kitchen counter tile was dirty upon arrival. Had to clean it before using. The bathtub with a hand held shower did not have cold water. The upstairs shower, the door was about to fall off and no water pressure. The upstairs bathroom sink was disgusting, did not drain and had an awful smell. 4 out of 7 of us took showers in the outside shower - how crappy is that? The bed sham upstairs had blood stain on it. Alongside the main living room couch, there was ton of dog hair. The bedroom on the main level behind the kitchen, there was hair on the bed sheets. I'm telling you, that house was AWFUL and disgusting! I can't believe that house is being rented to anyone!

Old school is the best school

Unplug right in to a families much loved and lived beach retreat. Equipped for all beach life fun if that involves good meals and with good friends. Place to plug in a rented golf cart. It the house is simple but real. Don't expect grand spaces but the linens are nice and if you looking for something in the kitchen it will be found somewhere. Do expect a lot of fun experiences going to fitting into life a Tybee old school.

Vacation 2025

The house had a lot of charm and the upstairs was nice. The furniture needs to be cleaned. Every chair in the dinning room had stains on them. The living room chairs were dirty and had holes on the arm rest. The couch was lumpy and old. The chairs on the front porch were old and dirty. Choosing chairs that can be wiped down would improve overall appearance of the house. The air conditioner worked well and we loved the location. The floors and bathrooms were clean.
