Beach Glimpses, Heated Pool, Sleeps 10

This lovely home is furnished with the intrinsic beauty of water color - from the greys of the Atlantic visible from our front yard, to the shimmering blue sparkles from the backyard pool by day, or dazzling LED colors at night. Décor in each room is subtle and relaxing, with grays, greens, and blues throughout. The signature touch inside the house is the growing collection of watercolor paintings by artists including Alan Casey, and others. Most of the art was painted on the island by artists who loved Saint Simons Island, and the collection continues to grow.

The house has 4 bedrooms:

~ Kitchen: classic 1938 style, with modern stainless appliances. Gas cooktop, dishwasher.
~ Dining room, living room with 47" flat screen TV, reading area, and outdoor dining

The private pool is 13' x 27' - long enough to swim laps and wide enough for the whole family to splash together. The pool is 3'6" deep on the shallow end and 5'6" on the deep end. It features bench seating on each end. For an additional fee ($75/day+tax) the pool can be heated during your stay.

You may never leave the back yard! But if you do, it will certainly be to stroll down to the beautiful Saint Simons beach, just 156 steps from the front porch to the sand. When you get back from a day at the beach, enjoy our heated outdoor shower before dipping again in the pool! In fact you may enjoy all of your showers in the outdoor shower.

Baby gear we have at the house:
- Pack N Play
- High Chair (booster style that straps to a chair, has a washable food tray)

Updates not photographed: We've removed the wall between the kitchen and dining room and removed the popcorn ceilings downstairs.

Note for summer 2024 there is construction on our street - not next door but two and 3 houses down on Park Way.

Pool is approximately 13 x 27ft

This house has a great location. We have stayed in homes directly on the beach that have had a longer walk to the water. It is literally around the corner to the beach. The house is quaint but with plenty of room. We loved the old school charm and renovations.

We had a really good time and had all the amenities we could hope for. Beds were comfy, kitchen well equipped, location was one house row away from the beach, and close proximity to the small town and long long beach walks.

Enjoyed the location and of course the pool. Parking a little tight but that is not the fault of the owner, as the home was not built to be a vrbo back in the day. They did make parking spots off of Ocean Blvd so that helps.

My family and I had a wonderful time in this beautiful beach house. It had so much charm and was in the perfect location to walk to beach and the village. We loved the pool and the outdoor area was perfect for grilling and just gathering around the tv. The proximity to the beach allowed for multiple trips a day for shell hunting.

The week away was just what we needed. Our favorite part of the house was the pool- so nice to have that as we came back from the beach every day. The space was perfect for the five of us and we were pleased with the short walking distance to the beach.

Was not what I was expecting it was a much older house! But everything worked fine! I thought it was pricy for the age of the house! We did have a wonderful vacation

Get location. Cute house with some updates here and there but a little rickety. A little pricey for what you get. Master bedroom bed too loud to sleep on comfortably. The extra cost to heat the pool was pricy and pool wasn’t heated, but just one single day (check in being on Wednesday and check out on Sunday). Overall okay cute place close to town.

We had such a great stay! The proximity to beach access was fantastic, and being able to walk to many shops/restaurants. We really appreciated that it was pet friendly, as our dog had the time of his life at the beach and the private pool! The mattress in the master bedroom was the best mattress we had experienced on vacation! Having a tv outside and an outdoor shower with warm water were great perks. Loved the lights in the pool at night and having the pool heated made it perfect. Also, next time we don’t even need to bring beach chairs because the ones in the shed were great! The house isn’t “fancy” but it’s cozy & rustic, has all the necessities, this is all about location!

The house was not as nice as the photos online. It also had a very distinct moldy smell.
Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2022

We enjoyed our stay, but feel there were several things not up to par. No instructions for fireplace, heater or lock, no hooks in baths, no bath mats, shower head in downstairs bath needs cleaned, bedroom doors are not really doors and don't work - knob broke first time I tried to close, the pool was full of leaves when we arrived, lawn furniture filthy and the shed in the back is also full of leaves and whatever?, house and all needs a good pressure washing (including gutter that is growing things), all bedrooms should have lamps, the freezer does not open well and rack does not slide well, need more kitchen towels and washclothsths, string of lights over table outside needs several bulbs, dining room lamp flickers off and on, beach chairs not in the best shape.

The location is perfect, it’s 1 block to the beach, and you can walk to a lot of restaurants (Crab Trap, Fiddler’s, Barrier Brewing, etc, or in the opposite direction down to the village). We walked to dinner every night, and to the lighthouse in the morning. The house has a storage shed in the back with a wagon and a few beach chairs which was extremely accommodating and made the walk to the beach very easy. The house also had a few baby and kid essentials, including a little baby lounge chair and a washer and dryer. We really enjoyed the backyard, it was great for kids after a day at the beach; we would pack up and go back to the house to swim for a couple of hours before dinner. There’s also an outdoor table that we used for meals. The pool has plenty of shade. Overall, the house had everything we needed, plenty of space, and we really enjoyed our stay. My recommendations for packing would be to include hand soap, laundry detergent, paper towels, beach towels and toilet paper. Although most of these items are provided, we had a big group so we needed extra quantities of these items. 5 out of 5 stars!! We will definitely book this house again in the future!!

The location close to the beach was awesome. The pool was great, especially for the kids! The issues were pictures were not accurate to what the inside really was like! Bathroom situation was not good for 3 families, not enough bath towels for 10 people and kitchen could have been much better equipped for cooking.

Overall our stay was pleasant. We did have a problem with TV reception which we were told had been occurring prior that was not addressed when we talked to manager on Thursday. Also we lost hot water on Saturday not finding out till after we returned from Ga Fla game so were not able to take showers Saturday night or Sunday morning. This was embarrassing to me since I acquired the rental for fiends and family.

This place is a well loved beach cottage. She shows her age but in a funky and fun way. The location is great and the second story balcony provide lovely views of the ocean and sunset over the trees. The master if large and the attached bath quite nice. The pool (we requested heated) was very warm so that we could use it, even in the days in the 60's! Plus, a nice man came by to check on the pool. Plenty of deck chairs for lower and upper. The USB hubs placed around the cottage were very helpful. We had a major issue at check in (HVAC heat was locked out by the owner). I called and left several messages with the property manager (even on the emergency line) but no one called until the morning. We spent the first night in a very cold (57*) cottage. The fireplace does not function so we had no heat source until 9 am the next day. The place needs some more daily use items. No bath mats, only one kitchen towel and no wash clothes, hangers (6 in entire house), no garage bins other than the one in the kitchen. The management company did provide bath mats and two garbage cans upon request. The house was definitely sunny which was lovely. However, the drapes are so see through that they don't block any light (sun will wake you up) or provide privacy in the evening. I would also suggest a night stand next to both sides of the queen upstairs as well as a curtain to replace the missing closet door in the twin bed room. The kitchen cabinet doors should also be out back on.
