About this property

Roomy updated 1950’s cottage in the perfect spot on the island!

With two living areas there is room for the book reader, the game player, or the TV viewer. We created a small home office area for those of you lucky enough to work from “home”!

We of course hope we share enough travel and dining tips you’re just there to sleep and relax before your next days outing! There is a nice kitchen with dishwasher, microwave, gas range and oven. A gas grill in the back patio helps for dining in options.

This 1950’s cottage take you back to a simpler time yet with all the comforts expected! Two FULL BATHROOMS make it comfortable for family and friends.

We’ve completed a full exterior renovation with new porches, Azec decking, roof and paint! There is seating on both the screened and open sides of the porch, as well as the backyard.

We keep our home sprayed quarterly for bugs and and we clean to the highest standards!

Once you book, I am always available via VRBO messaging or give me a call/text. We want you to enjoy our home as much as we do!

Wonderful Host and Home

The pictures really dont do this house justice. there is so much space and is so comfortable. Stuart was so easy to work with and she continuously checked in on us to make sure our stay was going well. She cares deeply about the guests experience in her home and I couldn't reccomend this place enough. The location is also amazing.

Great Neighborhood & Easy Access

We enjoyed our visit to St Simons and our stay in this home. We only used one bedroom, but there are three, and there is an extra "bonus room" where my husband worked remotely a couple of days. Right behind the Crap Trap, it's in a wonderful location for walking to bars and restaurants, and the neighborhood is great to walk as well. Very important to me is that one of my legs is in a boot. Myrtle Street is a block away, and that gives such easy access to the beach. You can even skip the boardwalk and walk right on! The house was very clean and nicely decorated. Stuart, the owner, is very responsive and got back to us immediately with anything we needed, including questions ahead of time.

Beautiful Home, Close to Beach and Restaurants

We had a great time and this was a beautiful home. Check-in was seemless and the home has everything you need to enjoy a week at the beach, with beach towels, chairs and a beach cart with the beach is a short walk away. It was also walking distance to many shops and restaurants. Would definitely recommend this home for your stay on St. Simons.

About the host

Hosted by Stuart Russell

Host profile image
I’m originally from St. Simons Island and I’m always happy to share our “go-to” spots, charter groups, favorite beach and dining spots!

Why they chose this property

This neighborhood is quintessential St Simons! The surrounding neighbors are nice, quiet and typically full time residents. This house is off a main road so safe for bike riding for children and just 2 quick shaded blocks to the beach. It’s one of the most perfect neighborhoods on the island.

What makes this property unique

This house has great happiness within the walls. My family has always felt it and we’ve had several guests mention there seems to be a happy spirit within the walls! (Don’t freak out ….. I’m not talking about ghosts!) It’s comfortable without feeling like a cheesy beach house. There are no hallways so the house doesn’t feel small…. The porches make the outdoor living perfect!
