We loved our stay at the beach cottage this fall break! The walk to the beach was quick and beautiful (just watch out for burrs!), and the rooftop deck was perfect for watching the sunrise and looking at stars. The hot tub was perfect as the nights got chillier, and Todd was quick to respond and attentive to needs. Overall, this was just a great experience for us. We especially loved the access to bikes and beach toys and had fun walking around the corner to the sugar shack for ice cream. We highly recommend this property!

The house is very quaint with nice porch and roof top deck with nice view of the ocean. Short walk to the beach and lighthouse. The house had everything we needed, including washer and dryer, close to very good retaurants, and very comfortable. We loved it!

This 1940s beach house was such a cozy and nostalgic stay—it truly felt like stepping back into simpler times. My children walked in and immediately said, “This feels like Nana’s house,” which perfectly captured the charm. Unlike so many rentals that are overly modern, sterile, and monochromatic, this home stands out for its warmth and character. Staying here felt like visiting grandma’s house by the sea, and that made this family vacation so much more rewarding. We did not take the bikes off the property but would've loved taking a bike ride down the strip.

Wonderful location

From the front door it's just steps to the beach on one side and multiple restaurants on the other. It's a small house but all we needed with plenty of sleeping areas, hot tub and an upper deck with great views of the ocean.

Minutes to the beautiful beach. Cozy cottage. Quiet street. Kitchen needs to be stocked better. No wine glasses. Few drinking glasses. The electric stove is antiquated and stove top coils hard to cook on. Two did not heat up well. Overall nice experience and the rooftop deck was a nice plus. Todd had the place clean and ready to go. Bring extra toilet paper-LOL. OVERALL A RATING. WE WOULD RENT AGAIN

Everything you need

Loved all the extras guests can use like bikes, beach chairs and umbrellas. Appreciated the porch swing, rocking chairs on deck and hot tub. Outdoor shower with hot water was amazing to have after going to the beach. Easy walk to multiple restaurants and a convenience store. Easy bike ride to the bike route street and lighthouse. Expect some “old cabin” things like a burner on the stove didn’t heat, drips from an ac vent in the front bedroom, fridge door shelves missing but I wouldn’t have chosen differently. Great cabin location and amenities.

Tybee is great

The location is great - a one minute walk to a beautiful beach. Hot tub that seats eight and rooftop deck. The cottage is definitely vintage 1940's. The space is a tight fit for 7 adults and a baby but everything you need is there. And the island seafood is hard to beat.
