About the host
Hosted by Doug MacMaster
Originally from Maryland, I moved to Georgia in 2014. With a BS in Hospitality Management, I love to help our guests have a wonderful visit to the Golden Isles! Our company, with my wife and sister-in-law, also specializes in interior design and helping those who fall in love with this area to relocate here. As a bonus, we also focus on finding investment properties for our clients.
Why they chose this property
We chose this property on Jekyll Island because of the wonderful amenities and proximity to all the wonderful things Jekyll Island has to offer.
What makes this property unique
We focus on luxury...we want our guests to feel spoiled and to feel completely comfortable in our home.
The tide swing in this area is very large. Sometimes 6-8 feet difference between low and high tide. It's amazing to watch throughout the day. If you can't make it down to the beach from our crossover, again you can always get to the beach from many other nearby access points, just a couple of minutes away.
