About this property

Ocean Front Pool! 4BR house near village sleeps 10

This is a very unique house - it was built in 1935 on St Simon's shoreline and would become the home of an honored US Navy Captain for many decades. After a thoughtful renovation, the home one of the most distinctive beachfront cottages on the island.
We've designed the house to be open and comfortable, and to maximize the ocean view. There are a few memoirs of Captain Carmichael's naval career displayed in the home, and the overall décor is bright and open - perfect for a few days at the beach!

Celebrate July 4th at the beach! This event features a lively parade through the village, followed by a vibrant fireworks display over the pier. The celebrations also feature various family-friendly activities such as live music, food vendors, and games, creating a festive atmosphere throughout the day.


THE SPACE
The first floor is designed as a place for your family to enjoy one another and enjoy the beach - an open concept floor plan provides beach views from nearly every spot - back of the house is a wall of windows with views of the beach and Jekyll Island beyond. The beach is view-able from the family room, large chef's kitchen, and dining room.

The second floor features 4 bedrooms to accommodate up to 10 people:

Captain's Quarters: The master bedroom has an ocean front view and features a king bed, flat screen TV, en-suite bath with dual vanities and a walk-in shower.

XO Room: The Executive Officer's room also has ocean views and has a king bed. There's a big flat screen TV.

Lieutenant's Room: The third bedroom also has a king bed, big flat screen TV, and lots of natural light from floor to ceiling windows.

Crew Quarters: The fourth bedroom was designed with the kids in mind. It features a set of bunk beds and two additional twin beds in a loft above (sleeping 4 "crew" in total).

As you will note in our photos, the house backs up directly to the ocean and you can walk through our back yard over the rocks onto the beach sand. Thanks to newer condo construction our ocean views are not panoramic from inside the house, but nonetheless the view is amazing, the sound of the ocean waves is so relaxing, and the aroma of salt air is unmistakable so close to the water's edge. We're also super-convenient to the center of town - the Pier Village - where most shops and restaurants are. We are just a couple of blocks away - an easy stroll for morning coffee, evening dinner or ice cream.

The ocean front pool is like no other option on St Simons. The pool has a shallow and deep end (3.5 feet shallow, 6 feet deep) and the ocean facing side has a sunning deck that hosts 2 beach chairs so you can keep you feet in the pool water and enjoy the sun, views, and sounds of the beach without leaving the back yard. The pool dimensions are 11x32 (26' of length for swimming, 6' for the sun deck). The pool can be heated for a $75/night fee.

Baby gear we provide:
Pack N Play
High Chair (booster style that straps to a chair, has a washable food tray)

Note the fireplace is ornamental only, can't light it.

Pool is approximately 11 x 32ft

Located on the south end of the Island, St. Simons Pier Village district serves as the downtown social hub and is a popular destination for shopping, dining and gathering on the pier and nearby lighthouse, playground and picnic areas. Overlooking the ocean and Jekyll Island across the way, you'll find the St. Simons Lighthouse and Museum, Neptune Park with its ocean side pool and facilities, playground, miniature golf course, and an oak shaded picnic area, fishing pier, public library and theater.

Gorgeous place!

We really enjoyed this home. Very beautiful and clean! We like the location and the view.It was a little frustrating that to have the pool heated so we could swim would cost 75 per night. We didn’t find that out until after we booked.

Perfect getaway

We loved our stay at this beautiful house right on the beach. We especially loved having our own private pool and not having to worry about driving to the beach and dragging all of our chairs and umbrellas. The house was clean and just as it was in the pictures! We would definitely stay here again!

Great house, great location

We had a wonderful visit, the beach location was perfect for morning walks. There were only 2 of us but this house would be perfect for a large family. The kitchen was well equipped, beds were comfortable. The location is close to the lighthouse and an easy walk to downtown shops and restaurants. I would highly recommend this cottage and look forward to returning.

Thanksgiving at the beach

Our family of 5 had a wonderful time. The house was wonderful and had lots of interesting history. We wanted to stay in the pool the whole time :) it was wonderful. The owners provided everything we needed including beach towels and pool floats. We didn't want to leave! Would stay again!

This is probably the best property on St. Simons. The pool is fantastic and the beach is right behind the pools. Views of the ocean are everywhere! Kids will love their area. It's made like a submarine!

Perfect location in St Simon's

We loved our long weekend celebrating a big birthday in St Simon's. This beautiful home gave everyone space to spread out and space to be together. An easy stroll to shopping and amazing food. The rest of the island was fun to explore on our rental bikes. But best of all, with pool and beach just outside the door we didn't have to travel at all for good chats and afternoon naps. The house and property are exactly as described and one of our all time favorite VRBOs.

Perfect Family Beach Vacation

This property was even better than pictures. It was the perfect family beach vacation house. The decor was so cute! My sons loved the submarine themed loft. The pool was perfect and beach access was SO easy (super important with 3 young kids). The cleaning crew they have is 100 because the house was spotless when we arrived. Walking into town for dinner was such a plus. 5 stars and we plan to return.

Family Beach Vacation

The location is fantastic...steps to the beach and close to town. Loved the beautiful pool... perfect for all members of our family! Spacious room for our family, however, the furniture was soiled with wear and tear and could have been cleaned periodically throughout the season. The large kitchen/dining area was very nice. Response by owner and property manager was excellent and they took care of our requests immediately. We loved our first visit to St. Simons Island and hope to return!

Wonderful visit!

This house is a very unique and comfortable place for a vacation. Excellent job in the decor & renovation. Looks like an HGTV project. Very spacious kitchen, bedrooms are large, lots of room for spreading out between the two living room areas. The pool on the beach is worth the price alone. Walking out your back door and being on the beach is a feature few rental houses can provide! Location on the island is so convenient & walking to the Village is awesome too. We would most definitely stay here again!!

You won't regret staying here!

Our family of 5 loved staying at this beach house! Its clean, organized and in a great location. We walked/rode our bikes everywhere and the dogs loved walking on the beach every day (before 9:00 and after 6:00). Of course, the pool is amazing too, especially enjoying cocktails at night overlooking the beach while the kids had fun swimming. Only thing that would have made this place better was a fence for the dogs but that wouldn't deter us from staying here again. We1ll be back!

Rustic experience

I knew we were staying in a historic home, but I was under the impression that certain areas like the kitchen and bathrooms were somewhat recently remodeled. It looked like they were maybe 20 years ago. The pictures of the kitchen make it look way nicer than it actually is. The main floor furniture was all pretty dirty. Most of the bedroom doors barely shut, much less lock. On a positive note, my teen son and his cousins who visited thought the kid’s area and loft were wonderful. The main reason we chose this place was for it’s perfect location on the beach and close distance to the Village. The location is excellent.

Excellent location

House was clean and decorated beautifully. The location is excellent. The back door opens to the beach, and the Village (populated with restaurants and shops) is a quick 5-10 minute walk. I love the large windows with amazing ocean views. It was perfect for a family as everyone could make their own choice for the day, e.g., spend time on the beach, swim in the pool, walk to the Village, etc. Only point of note is all the properties are closely located on east beach, and this property is between two condos. The pool is lovely with amazing views but it is in view of the neighboring condos. That aspect didn’t bother us and didn’t impact us - but just noting it for future vacationers.

Great location and set up

We really enjoyed our stay and especially the location and being able to walk out the back door and be on the beach! Our family was thrilled with that as well as the location to the quaint downtown area. We would only recommend the Management Company be up to date on the specific items that were included in the house as we asked and bought lots of K-cups as we were told there was no traditional coffee pot but there were actually 2 there! I added to the inventory there when we left as we don't use those at home:) I was told there was no iron although there was an ironing board which seemed odd so I purchased a travel iron and low and behold there was one there. I will be returning.

I did not want to leave!

I’ve been coming to SSI since I was a kid (I’m now in my 30s). This was by far the best place I’ve stayed on the island. It’s got to be one of the only single family home with a private ocean front pool. My kids swam for hours. If they weren’t in the pool, they were at the beach a few steps away. You can’t beat that. The house is walking distance from the Village/restaurants and also from the King and Prince area restaurants—pretty much an ideal location. Ryan is super attentive and an excellent communicator. Same for the management team. They checked in with us the day after we arrived to see if we needed anything. I hope to stay here every time I make it down to SSI. Thanks for a fabulous stay!”

Excellent location, beach access and private pool were outstanding, house needs repairs

The house had nice finishes and upgrades, but many things were in disrepair. Couch covers needed a wash. Coffee machine didn't work, pots were all burnt and well-worn, bedroom doors didn't close/lock, the main turn-off was the flooring. It was very worn and made constant noise when walking on. The entry way and front door to the house were very uninviting and unappealing (worn and dirty).
