The house was adorable, easy to live in! Kitchen was well supplied with cookware and dishes. Clean and beautifully decorated. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms well done. Close to everything, we made trips to the village several times a day, it was an easy scooter ride or walk in just minutes. Host was very communicative and helpful.

This cottage was perfect! The neighborhood was nice & quiet but yet so close to everything. Breakfast under the oaks trees in the back yard was a huge bonus. And the whole home inside and out was clean as a whistle!

St Simons Cottage

Excellent 3 BR 2 Bath cottage with well equipped kitchen, newly refurnished, and spotlessly clean. TV’s in all bedrooms and living room. On a quiet street in a lovely neighborhood just a short walk to Mallory Street and the central village. We would definitely stay there again while visiting St. Simons!

First time at St Simmons and can’t imagine a better experience. The house was perfect, well laid out, clean and located in just the right area. You can walk to everything. Great first experience and will definitely be back.

family beach week

The Happy Magnolia is even cuter in person than the photos show! Our family of 5 spent the week enjoying St. Simons. The location is fantastic-one block from the village and we walked to restaurants and shops each day and finished every evening with a stroll on the pier. There is a park with pickle ball courts two blocks from the cottage and we played every day. We cooked quite a bit and the kitchen was well equipped. We would definitely stay here again!

The Happy Magnolia

This is the perfect little cottage for 2 couples and up to 3 kids (we had a 16 year old). I love that there were 2 King masters and kids had their own room. Everything about this cottage was top notch, from the cleanliness, to the decor inside, to the seating areas outside! There are so many thoughtful details throughout this home, especially each bedroom had a dressing table with a mirror. No detail was spared! Beds were comfortable and the bedding was beautiful! The location was perfect for walking to anything in Pier Village. Super convenient! The Happy Magnolia is at the top of my list when we visit St. Simons again.

Glamping!

We headed down to the Magnolia Cottage the day after the hurricaine. We chose to go to the island during this time as our neice was getting married that weekend. We may have felt differently if we had a difficult host, but Kelly was amazing! She was in constant contact with us despite the power outages and spotty cell service. She communicated with us throughout our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. The cottage is beautiful, comfortable, perfect location, and outfitted with detail and high end comforts. We will not hesitate to rent the Magnolia Cottage again the next time we visit! Thank you, Kelly, for an amazing weekend!
