The home was clean and spacious, with a well-equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, nice linens and lovely yard. Quick response and on-going communication to issue with lack of water pressure in faucet in guest bathroom was truly appreciated. We received excellent customer service.

Great location for golf and local hot spots
First time to Saint Simons and since we were travelling with an elderly dog this house was perfect. All one level. Great location in golf community. Beautiful gourmet kitchen to cook and enjoy time with family. Close to bike path, and some local restaurants. Hope to go back next year.

Spacious!
Comfortable, spacious and clean house with lots of cable TVs! Issues were taken care of courteously and efficiently. Excellent kitchen appliances - could use a bit more of teaspoons, bowls and hot water/pressure. Lanai and backyard are relaxing areas, too. Access is limited until sliders are repaired. I will check here first when returning to the area!

Elmo & Sam’s-Perfect
We enjoyed our week long stay here. It’s in a quiet neighborhood that is convenient to everything. The mattresses are comfortable and the bedding nice. Slept wonderfully. Loved the walk in shower. I can’t say enough good things about this home. My furbaby loved the fenced in yard and the screened porch. I don’t like to travel without him so it’s great to be able to bring him and have him enjoy it too. It was so nice having a washer and dryer also. The big TVs were a plus. The refrigerator was great to be able to get things cold for the beach. Thank you for sharing this wonderful home with us. We will be back!!!

Peaceful setting among the oaks
We were delighted to have such a beautiful backyard for our dogs. The house felt safe and secure, and was quiet. It was easy to get to all things on the island. The kitchen was well appointed. There is a memory foam mattress in the master and regular mattresses in the other rooms

Comfortable Place to Nest
We were visiting several local family members, and this property provided all that we needed. Great kitchen to cook in with all the essentials. No ice machine but loads of ice trays. Delightful screened in porch & well-maintained yard. Lots of places to set up computers to keep up with work and WiFi worked well. Luxurious master bathroom and towels in all bathrooms. Foyer made excellent yoga studio!
