Our home is located in St. Simons Heights. It is an ideal spot because you can easily scoot out to Village/Pier area in less than 5 mins or to the north end in 10 (depending on “traffic.”) Our location is 1.2 miles from East Beach. We like to go to the very end and park at Gould’s Inlet. Families often go to the Coast Guard or Massingale beach areas because there are public bathrooms and showers.
Mama Ellie’s Up! Is easily walkable to any type of store you’d need. Here’s a sampling of restaurants/food types within walking distance: barbecue, Mexican, Thai, subs, doughnuts, scones, coffee houses, and even yogurt. There are clothing boutiques for women, men, and children, CVS, book, convenience, liquor, and hardware stores, and my favorite locally and owned gift shop/pharmacy (St. Simons Drugs) ALL right across the street! Mama Ellie’s Up! also has gold cart and bike rentals one block away.
