About this property

Great Location! Charming Beach Cottage. 1 block to Beach

This newly remodeled cottage captures the essence of island living with its large oaks, quiet treelined street, and short distance to the beach. You'll feel the ocean breezes and be just a quick walk to the popular island restaurants Crab Trap and Crab Daddys. Both East Beach and the Village are within walking distance and bike rentals are just a block away!

This cute cottage has just been renovated and redecorated and features a large great room with board and batten ceilings with exposed beams and new wood floors. The custom designed and built mantle and fireplace features our new 50 inch flat screen television. Furnishings are exquisite and include many one-of-a-kind treasures as well as original artwork throughout.

The eat-in kitchen has brand new appliances with gorgeous granite countertops. You'll love the custom designed range hood and upscale new appliances. The kitchen also features a large dining table with seating for 8 including custom built banquette seating.

There are three bedrooms which are all beautifully decorated and feature wood flooring throughout. The master bedroom has a private bath with a tiled shower, travertine floors, and granite countertops. Furnishings in this bedroom include a king size bed with custom built headboard and beautiful mirrored bedside tables.

Our guest bedroom features two queen size beds with seagrass headboards. This room features board and batten walls from the original cottage. Beautiful nautical themed bedding and original art complete this fantastic guest bedroom which is just across the hall from the 2nd bathroom.

We call the third bedroom our 'Bunk Room'. It is located next to kitchen and great room and just a short distance to the shared hall bathroom. This room was custom built by a true craftsman. It features board and batten ceilings and walls for both bunks. Built-in night lights are nautical navigation lights. There are so many custom designed and built details in this room that you'll just be amazed at its true charm.

The second bathroom also has beautiful honed travertine floors and granite countertops. This bathroom has a wonderful newly refinished tub/shower combination.

In the laundry room, conveniently located next to the kitchen, you'll find a full sized washer and dryer.

We've also added an outdoor shower and dressing room, complete with hot and cold water. The backyard also features a terrace with a fire pit, adirandack chairs, and privacy fence. Back patio includes a Weber gas grill and an inviting dining area.

As expected

The listing was very accurate and we liked the layout of the house and the close proximity to the beach. It is in a neighborhood with close houses, but that wasn't a problem for us.

Great cottage in a great location

My wife and I stayed at this wonderful cottage for a week. It is very nicely renovated, well laid out, cozy, and had everything we needed. It is a very short two block walk to the amazing St. Simons beach and within easy walking distance of the pier restaurant and shopping area of the island. Patti, the owner, was very helpful and responsive. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat.

Lovely updated home in a quiet neighborhood near the beach. Well stocked kitchen, too! We loved sharing beach time with our family, including a safe backyard for the dog. We plan to return! Thanks for sharing your home with us 😊

Wonderful Stay

We had a wonderful week at the cottage. Can't imagine a place being more comfortable and inviting. Close to the beach and better restaurants. Beds were very nice and the kitchen was well stocked with whatever you may need for cooking. Private outdoor area was very enjoyable. The outdoor shower was a very nice feature too. We highly recommend it!

Perfect beach house

We had a great stay for our family vacation (even with tropical storm Debby)! This house is exactly as described. Great space and perfect location within walking distance to the beach, great restaurants, and even the pier to shop, dine, or grab some sweets or ice cream. Patti was an amazing host! We will definitely be back to stay here again!

Doesn't get better!

I can't do justice with words when describing how lovely this cottage is, and how perfect it was for our family. Not only is it immaculate, but it's literally steps from the beach. It's obvious that the owners of this property take a great deal of pride in this home, as I would too! The layout of the interior is awesome. My family has been visiting SSI every summer for 20+ years. We usually stay on the beach but this time we needed a pet friendly rental, and those are hard to find on the beach. This cottage was by far the cleanest we've ever stayed in (I'm a clean freak ... AKA OCD). We loved the open living area that included the kitchen space. The backyard is perfect if you have a pet, and it's so nice to relax and cook out. The shower and changing area in the back is amazing as well! No one could go wrong with this rental as long as it's the right size for your group. It was perfect for us, and we had 5 adults and one baby. But it's perfect for 6 adults. The only advice I can give is to be sure you only have 3 cars that you need to park. The homes on the street stick to the policy of number of cars allowed at each home. Often I will pay attention to number of cars allowed but I know some people are like me and might overlook a detail like that. We've already decided that we hope we can get this cottage again for our 2025 trip. I want to say thank you to the owners of this property because it truly was a "home away from home" and could not have been better!

Great cottage, close beach proximity

Wonderful host, always prompt responses from her. Very well appointed cottage. Ample seating for dining & gathering. Nice to have starter products for our weekly stay. The beach wagon is an added bonus for shuttling chairs, umbrella & coolers. Highly recommend this cottage!

Second visit to this house

When we decided to return to SSI, we couldn’t find any rental that was more attractive or better located than this one. We were delighted to stay there again. Patti is a responsive and responsible host. The house is clean, comfortable, and well equipped. The only things missing are beach towels and a beach umbrella, which would make it perfect. Be aware that the residents/owners in the neighborhood seem to be obsessed with leaf blowing, and the relentless racket starting at 8 a.m. can ruin a quiet morning or afternoon on the back patio.

Love this home!

I have lost count but think this was our sixth stay in this home. Clean, beautifully decorated, close to beach and village and very comfortable. We always rent a golf cart when we stay here and rarely need our car since the home is conveniently located near everything we need. Also, there is a nice fenced back yard with outdoor shower and firepit.

Nice House

The house is comfortable and in good condition, having been recently remodeled. The location is good, being a block and a half from the beach and about a mile from the village. The backyard has a new patio. The owner is very courteous and friendly. This is the third time we’ve stayed in the house. I obviously would recommend it.
