Mothers Day

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was great just one thing to recommend, the master bedroom mattress really could use replacing. It is well worn and it is like getting out of a hammock when you try to get out of bed. But love the place and had a great time. Will be back.

Love this cottage! We had the best time on the screened patios. We tried to grill, did not work.

One of our best vacations yet.

Sooooo coming back

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our visit was fantastic. Beautiful and cozy. The only thing we would have liked to have seen was a full length mirror. We were there for a wedding and that would have been a plus but it won't stop us from coming back for a vacation. Great property.

An awesome weekend!

The house was perfect! We all enjoyed the beautiful scenery, and the two decks to look at the beach all day. The house is beautiful and was absolutely perfect. The golf cart was a lot of fun and was great for us so we didn’t always have to jump in our car. We were only one house away from beach access, which was also perfect. It was perfect all around and we can’t wait to go back!

Wonderful Property!

Don’t pass on this listing, it’s even better than pictured. Very clean, wonderful location, amazing sun rooms upstairs and downstairs, beautifully decorated with tall ceilings, all rooms are en-suite and they have the coolest golf cart on the island. We had awful weather, and are still very pleased with our first trip to Jekyll. We’ll be back!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved staying in this beautiful, well maintained and equipped cottage. Waking up to be greeted by the ocean and sunrise each morning and then being put to sleepy by the sound of gentle waves at night was a treat. We loved using the four bikes to tool around Jekyll. On our list to return!

Girlfriend's Bday

Had a pleasant but not long enough stay. Could have used extra towels. We had a water spill and had to use a bath towel to clean it up and this ran us short on towels. Need to be conscious of the no-see-ums. They could be overwhelming at dawn and dusk.

OC 103

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property was just as described and was just what we needed for our family. Clean and well-maintained just as the pictures showed. Parker Kaufman helped us with an issue we had with the golf cart with one of the batteries failing. But it happened at a bad time. It was Mother’s Day and I had a 62 year old grandma, 35 year old mom and a 6 month old baby in the cart when it failed. Really missed up the plans I had for them when it broke down half way across the island. Call the office and they called me back in about 30 minutes. With it being Sunday they were not able to get a replacement battery until Monday. They got there Monday morning and replaced the battery but our whole Mother’s day’s plans were gone. The whole reason for the trip. Kinda feel like a little compensation should be given back to us with losing a whole day of golf cart use. But it didn’t ruin our trip. We enjoyed the beach, did a lot of nature viewing riding in the golf cart and ate some great food. Great place, great people will recommend it to my friends, we really had a memorable stay.

Quiet, peaceful island to unplug and reset

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoy the quiet old town feel of the island. It is perfect for getting away from the hussle and bussle of life and unplug. This is our 2nd year staying at the cottages and it did not disappoint. We plan to be repeat visitors for many years to come.
