Closest to Pier Village • Pool • Pet-Friendly • 0.7 Miles to St. Simons Beach
YOUR ST. SIMONS VACATION HOME Harbour Oaks 309 is a pet-friendly St. Simons vacation rental in the closest condo complex to Pier Village—full stop. Walk to the tree spirits in Neptune Park, the homemade candy at St. Simons Sweets, and whatever’s on tap at Brogen’s UGA bar, then head home through hydrangeas and discover garden paths you'll want to keep a secret. Inside, this ground-floor, dog-friendly condo is single-level and laid out for real life. The living room has actual seating, and the kitchen doesn’t make you choose between counter space and caffeine. The private patio is just far enough from the pool to keep things quiet. You’re 0.7 miles from the beach, a few shady steps from the tennis court, and exactly as close as it says it is.

Great location! Close to the beach, pier, Pier Village, dog park & pickleball courts, and other island amenities. This unit is clean and nicely decorated and furnished. We had everything we needed. Note that the AC is really loud. Other than that it is perfect for a family/group of up to 4 adults.
Comfortable unit and well stocked. My wife, I, and Luca our dog enjoyed our stay. We would highly recommend this unit for anyone looking to stay near town and the pier.

Great place to stay, great location to visit the spots in SSI, weather was just right! Will be back....
Very close to the village, shops, and beach accesses. Gated which was very nice. Comfortable and homey. Would rent again. Would be nice to have waterhose at front of property for convenience for rinsing off sand as we always entered thru the front door. Was one at back of property. Pet friendly. Overall a wonderful stay. We visit St. Simon’s every year. Was worried as this was our first trip without an ocean view rental, but it was just as nice.
This is the third time we have rented in Harbour Oaks. The location to the pier and beach can't be beat. The unit was very clean and comfortable and Emmons Realty responded quickly to our questions.
We've used VRBO several times this year and have enjoyed all of our stays.
This time, we needed some help from the rental company. They were excellent.
The rental unit was all that we had expected. Loved the location, too.
Very quiet. Close to The Pier and lighthouse but not within walking distance.

Very clean and comfortable vacation rental. Agent was top notch. Thank you.
Old furnishings, over furnished, but it was a roof over my head. Checked in on time. Everything worked.

Reviewer Comments:
Booking our vacation was easy. Pictures of condo were spot on. Loved how clean everything was. The grounds and pool were wonderful. We were located close to the beach and restaurants and shopping. We had a great week!
We are Canadians and spent a month on St. Simons Island. Our accommodations were quite nice, clean and accurate to the advertisement. It was quiet and easy for our dogs to enjoy some outdoor space. We ran out of many of the supplies. Since we were booked for a month I was surprised there wasn't more of the things we needed ( dishwasher soap, garbage bags, shampoo...) The broken patio chairs we reported were never replaced. Otherwise, everything was comfortable.
We stayed in this unit this year for our annual end of summer family trip to SSI. It was very quiet (last week of summer before school starts around the state) and perfect for our needs. The complex is gated, it’s a short walk to downtown and centrally located to popular beaches. The property management company is exceptionally responsive and we appreciated that when we arrived to find a dead squirrel just off the back patio that was drawing a huge amount of flies. They removed it within an hour of our arrival.
We enjoyed our stay at this unit and recommend for anyone looking for a pleasant stay on SSI!
Could not find a “direct” tv remote for the tv in the living/family room, had to watch “live” sports in bedroom, downer.
Found live cockroach in kitchen sink, suggests inadequate pest control services.
All else, excellent.
This is our second time staying and I love the location to the Village and the property is very well
I felt very secure and comfortable with the condo and comfort for my 10 lb dog. The condo is decorated very nicely. I just think it need a little more care.
My only complaint was we found small roaches through out our stay in the kitchen counter. I had to wash and rinse everything we used.
The rug in the living room under the chest was dirty with previous dogs urine marks. It should be washed or removed.

Mostly a great stay! A few things need to be addressed:1. Front storm door needs new closer -- only slams, which is unpleasant for 309 and other people in nearby units.2. Several light bulbs burned out.3. Rugs in living room, bedroom, bathrooms were dirty and full of sand.
Nice condo. Clean. Safe. Good for solo ladies. Please put more kitchen towels and wash clothes. I like to be super clean but there was not even a wash cloth for the kitchen. No bath mat in the master bedroom. Second toilet did not flush. Just a few little touches would make it perfect. Loved the location. Pool was so enjoyable.
