YOUR ST. SIMONS VACATION HOME
This St. Simons vacation rental is just a 2-minute walk—450 feet—to the 5th Street beach access in East Beach. Mary’s House is a classic single-story home with a flowing layout, two king bedrooms, fast WiFi, and a full kitchen with quality cookware, built to handle real meals. The screened front porch seats ten, with a porch swing, vintage cooler, and ceiling fans. Inside, you’ll find plenty of room to spread out across a living room with a smart TV and fireplace, an air-conditioned sunroom with a daybed, and a back deck with a charcoal grill.

You’re less than a mile from Barrier Island Brewing, Fiddlers, and Beachcomber BBQ—and just far enough from the crowds to unwind.

SLEEP ON ST. SIMONS
This beach home sleeps up to 6 guests across three bedrooms:
• Bedroom 1: King bed, smart TV, open closet shelving, hallway access
• Bedroom 2: King bed, open layout with plenty of natural light
• Bedroom 3: Queen bed with sunny window, smart TV, and bold bedding
• Bonus: Air-conditioned sunroom with twin daybed and TV—great for lounging or overflow

ST. SIMONS OUTDOOR LIVING
The screened front porch is the star of this East Beach vacation rental, with seating for ten, ceiling fans, a swing, and a vintage cooler that’s older than Instagram. Out back, there’s a charcoal grill and a gravel drive with space for three vehicles. Rinse off the beach sand, throw dinner on the grill, and settle in.

You’re tucked between two East Beach landmarks—Gould’s Inlet and the Coast Guard Station. Need wheels? You can rent bikes, boards, or beach gear at Ocean Motion right down the street.

Hop on a bike or take a quick drive to Pier Village for cocktails at The Half Shell, local Georgia shrimp at Iguanas, or pizza for big groups at Mellow Mushroom. Georgia Sea Grill is a longtime favorite when you're in the mood for something more upscale. At this St. Simons beach rental, you won’t need a car unless you’re in a hurry.

The property Was not as expected,

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, it was a decent experience. Several issues need to be addressed. The garbage disposal did not work, which was a problem. The outside grill did not have a grate for the charcoal. The house smelled very musty and the outside yard was very messy and unkempt. unfortunately, we were there during the construction of a fence right next to us. We did enjoy the screened in front porch. There was no backyard at all, which was not indicated in the pictures or description. But one of the major things was that there was not a railing going up the steps to the front door. I needed assistance going up and down the stairs each time. Do building codes not require rails to help enable handicap people?

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I stayed here a week after Hurricane Helen-everything was nice. The internet wasn't working correctly (not their fault post hurricane) so they immediately brought me a hot spot! The hot water could be a few degrees warmer-only complaint.

We love Mary's House!

We really enjoyed out time at Mary's House! It is a perfect East Beach location, with an easy trek to a lovely uncrowded beach. The house itself has lots of charm and was a great fit for our family of five plus our dog. The kitchen has all the necessities, including a crock pot to save you from worrying about dinner after a long day on the beach. And the house was absolutely spotless when we arrived. Thanks for a wonderful week. We are looking forward to our next visit!

Best beach vacation!

Mary’s House is an adorable cottage with a welcoming front porch (screened), clean and comfortable furnishings, well-resourced kitchen, and a perfect location in East Beach. We spent almost two weeks this summer relaxing and enjoying all that SSI has to offer. House is located in an ideal location to great restaurants. We will definitely return and offer high praise!

A Perfect Beach Home

This was the perfect beach home for our family vacation. It was exactly what we needed for our family of six and two pups. It was a short walk to the beach and a short drive to all of the restaurants and shops. Everything we needed during our stay was available in the home. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

East Beach Cottage

We had a great experience at this property and Ben was always available. Our one problem was a bed had not been changed prior to our arrival and we had to change the sheets, hence to 4 stars for cleanliness. Other than that, which was an easy fix, we recommend this property and hope to stay there again.

Cute Cottage

We enjoyed our stay and the reason I did not give it 5 stars is because there was a ceiling leak in one of the bedrooms I’m guessing it was the air condition condensation. Overall cute place .

St Simons spring break

Quaint cozy comfortable cottage. Perfect location FOR US , in East Beach near friends. Walk to beach was thru a swampy ,buggy area - which is just part of the area. The hot water was a little inconsistent , which is understandable for an older home, so for a winter stay that may be an issue w/ showers. The adjacent lot is apparently a storage lot which may prove unsightly for some , but just close the blinds & it's outta sight outta mind. Our gang had a blast & thoroughly enjoyed our stay & would absolutely love to stay here again.
