Nice place

This was a very nice, clean place to stay. The pictures are accurate and to be honest it was a little bigger than I thought it was going to be. We went in March 2025 and there was really no water in the back so that was the only negative, but nothing the company could do just time of year I suppose.

Peaceful

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed the location of this cottage - while we were there, there was not as much water as you see in the photo, but that was ok with us - just a peaceful cottage to stay in. Great location - quick drive in to Savannah, Tybee Island and not too far from a Hilton Head. My only negative thought was a bit of local info available when we got there would have been nice - such as best place for groceries, not knowing the area at all we first went to WalMart because we are used to being able to get everything there - not on Wilmington Island. The representatives were responsive to two things we had questions about and we were thankful for that.

Perfect!

My teenage daughter and I just finished a week here. It was perfect for our needs. I brought her to SCAD each day for a week of classes, while I worked remote with the beautiful view of the marsh. Even from here the twice a day 25 minute commute and back was easy with minimal traffic. Such a nice city, surrounding area, and atmosphere. Wilmington island was quiet and peaceful with easy to get to necessities close by. The house is exactly as shown in the pictures and I thoroughly enjoyed the porch every day to relax in the evenings. Only one night when the air was still did I encounter a few bugs. I did notice the slight mildewy? type smell in the living room a few days maybe it was more humid? But I even still worked all day long in this room without it overly bothering me. The mattresses were a little hard as others mentioned. Those were the only slight negatives. The big, bright, and well equipped kitchen met all our needs. It was great to have the two bathrooms and two showers and I used the outdoor shower all week, so fun! Everything was modern and clean. Best of all though was still the porch, view, and open sky. If I end up back this way I would absolutely stay here again. Loved it!

Beautiful home with beautiful view...but stinky

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home is absolutely beautiful. The view is beautiful. We witnessed an amazing rainbow over the marsh. There was some dirty silverware in the drawer but the worst thing about this rental was the smell! As soon as you walk up to the front door there is a dog poop smell and then inside the home is the smell of cat urine. We did witness a racoon in front of the home early one morning. Possibly a family of racoons living under the house?? The urine smell seemed to get worse the longer we were there. We did not notify the management due to I don't think they could do anything about it. There were several air fresheners in the home (to no avail), so I believe the management was well aware of the smell. We did see that someone else talked about a smell in their review.

Peaceful spot

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall we liked this rental very much. It is in a unique and quiet location with a great back porch for relaxing with marsh views. The inside is very clean and updated and the outdoor shower is a nice option. Only negatives are the king bed mattress is so hard that a good night of rest was nearly impossible and there is a bit of an odd smell especially around the front door. Would definitely stay again if a new mattress was installed. We had a minor issue with wasps in the outdoor shower and it was addressed by management very quickly which was appreciated.

Wonderment in the marsh

Delightful property located at the foot of a marsh on a dead end road. Supper private and quiet but conveniently located near stores and attractions.
