About this property

Grandma’s House at Mid Way Retro Retreat • Pet & Family Friendly

Welcome to Grandma’s House at Mid Way Retro Retreat, a charming 1940s cottage that truly feels like home. This is the kind of place where mornings are slow, conversations last longer, and everyone finds their favorite spot to settle in. Designed for togetherness and comfort, it’s ideal for families and groups looking to relax, reconnect, and enjoy life at an easier pace.

Inside, the house offers multiple warm and inviting spaces. Enjoy movie nights in the cozy living room, curl up with a good book on a comfortable couch, or simply enjoy the familiar, lived-in feel that makes Grandma’s House so special. There’s also a dedicated office space if you need to catch up on work or plan the day. The well-equipped kitchen features ample seating and room to cook, gather, and share meals — just like home.

Step outside and take in one of the most loved features of the property: a heart-shaped, ¾-acre stocked pond just steps away. Relax on the covered dock with your morning coffee, enjoy quiet moments watching the water, or try a little catch-and-release fishing. Guests also love spending time in the vintage wooden boat, perfect for reading, sunbathing, or simply drifting and unwinding.

The surrounding property offers plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors, with activities including disc golf, cornhole, and horseshoes. Whether you’re playing games, taking a peaceful walk, or enjoying a quiet evening by the pond, the setting encourages you to slow down and savor the moment.

During your stay, you may meet Bob, our friendly on-site caretaker. He’s nearby if needed and always happy to share local tips or help make your stay comfortable, while still respecting your privacy.

Location & Day Trips

Grandma’s House is perfectly located for exploring coastal Georgia. Enjoy easy day trips to the Golden Isles and nearby beaches, spend an afternoon wandering historic Savannah, or explore the charm of Richmond Hill. After a day out, return to the quiet comfort of the retreat to unwind.

Grandma’s House isn’t just a place to stay — it’s a place that feels familiar, welcoming, and easy. A place for coffee on the dock, books in the sun, long talks at the table, and memories you’ll want to come back to.

Mid Way Retro Retreat features multiple distinct stays, each with its own personality.

Mid Way Retro Retreat is a playful nod to the town of Midway, Georgia — a place where time slows down and nostalgia lives on.

Great house, great location

We had a family trip with 7 of us. We loved the property, house and location. We will definitely return for another visit! We had plenty of room for everyone and my little brother loved the catch and release pond.

Great house!

It was a really nice house at a reasonable price! A little bit further away from the beach than I would have liked (about an hour), but it was really close to a convenience store, and the house was kept up really well.

Fun and unique

This house reminded us of life in the fifties. Grandsons enjoyed fishing and playing horseshoes and even spotted a baby alligator in the pond. Bob was a gracious host.

Our Midway Stay

We had a wonderful time staying at Mark’s house in Midway. It was a great central location for day trips north to Savannah and south to Jacksonville and lots of interesting areas in between. The house was great, much larger than you would think. It definitely has a retro charm. We and our family and our pets, too, all enjoyed it so much. It’s well equipped and comfortable and the grounds are beautiful too! We would definitely go back again.

Great Property

The property is awesome and is exactly like the photos shown on VRBO The host is very friendly and attentive. There were no issues with the property and the property is great for family fun, barbecuing and family dinners. The space can accommodate at least 10 people comfortably. I will reserve the property again.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay

Communication and check in was perfect. This is a large older but very well maintained home! 3 bedrooms, 3 baths and plenty of dining and living spaces. The deck has a wheel chair ramp and the home has plenty of open space for maneuverability but there isn't a handicapped equipped bathroom. This wasn't an issue for us. We would definitely stay here again if we happened to be in the area.
