Annual Trip to Jekyll

This is our first time staying in the Moorings and it worked really great for easy access to our boat, which we docked at the Jekyll Harbor Marina. The house was spotless and perfect for our family. The elevator was a life-saver for loading and unloading. We will be back next year!

Odd start, but great stay

The only reason I can't give the stay 5 stars is because we found cameras in the bedroom. When we called the office, the receptionist expressed genuine concern and said someone would give us a call. But when we spoke to someone, they just said they'll come pick them up another day. No one ever came or gave an explanation. Aside from this very odd start to the trip, the house was beautiful. The pictures don't give justice to the two screened in porches off the bedrooms and living room or the massively large bathrooms and showers. It was perfect for our two-family beach trip.
