Great location and great for big family!

Location is so close to beach! Clean with a large living room area. Kitchen is large and great for cooking!! Loved the big window that opens to pool. Hot tub and pool were amazing for a big crowd. Our only issue was hot tub and pool were cold for two days even though we paid for heat. Great vacation!

Update your property

Good location - close to town and beach. VRBO photos of property need to be more current. Exterior lighting entering/exiting the home could be brighter - missing bulbs. Heated spa/pool could be warmer. Musty smell upon entering property home most times. Missing the weber grill that was in backyard photo. Wouid have wanted to grill outdoors a night or two. Lighter fluid was located below sink so where was the grill?Oven did not heat up!! What’s the trick??

You can’t beat the location of this property. However, there are many things that need work. For example, the pool heater is broken. Most light fixtures don’t work and common amenities like a washer and dryer have issues.

Great location beautiful decor

A lovely, very comfortable and beautifully decorated home two blocks from the beach in a quiet location on the island. Great kitchen nicely equipped. Disappointed that we could not use fireplaces and while the rental company was responsive to our needs the experience was impersonal. That said we plan to return because of how much we loved the home and location

Almost perfect

Immaculate lovely home, well-furnished, great location, responsive management. The only downside is that the back of the property abuts a large hotel whose noisy air conditioners interferes with the enjoyment of the beautiful back yard, a fact not mentioned in the description.

Great house

It was just my wife and I, and it was the offseason and not great weather so we didn't get to enjoy all the house offers in the hot tub and yard. However, the house is nicely appointed, plenty of towels, kitchen appliances, and in light of the weather and Covid, I loved that they had all the pay TV stations, and could access Netflix and Hulu. It is 2 blocks from a nice beach, and a short walk/ride to the pier town, and close to everything else.

Beautiful spot close to the beach

Overall, we really liked staying here. The house and yard were beautiful , and we enjoyed the pool as well. Only drawback was that the internet could be spotty at times and we weren't able to access Netflix and Hulu due to needing a PIN that only the owner had and didn't feel comfortable giving out. I assume they are going to work on fixing this. Other than that, I would highly recommend because the house was beautiful and a short walk to the beach!

Two family beach vacation

House was beautifully decorated and appointed and extremely clean. Great location, easy walk to the beach and shops and restaurants. Kitchen was easy to cook in and we used pool and spa more than I thought we would. The only thing I would point out is that the room with the double and two singles consists of bunk beds, including a top single that is shorter than a standard-sized single mattress and the double and other single are on the floor. It worked well for our teens/older kids and would be perfect for little kids, but adults would likely be uncomfortable there. Speaking of comfort, the mattresses and bedding were extremely comfortable (not something I would have expected in a rental).

Quaint house-fab location

Adorable house w/coffee house vibes. If you love & are used to older, quirky houses- you will love. Very cozy. Love the decor & stained glass. Great great location! Pool heating & cleanliness(pool only) was an issue, but obviously not a problem in summer. Vacasa did the very best they could with what they had to deal with(re:pool). Would love for the owners to fix the observation deck & a few other things. Would be a fun addition to this funky, cool house. Would stay here again.

Spacious but left wanting

We easily fit 2 families into the house, great sleeping arrangements. We enjoyed the kitchen and living space, but exposed outlets, broken widow’s nest with no access (though it looked like it would have been amazing), promise of a heated pool in January but having nothing, and missing windows, tv remotes, and backyard issues (shade lining was covered in debri, playhouse covered in moss) just left us wishing we could have enjoyed what was promised to us more.

Cute buts needs tending to

Overall the experience was easy and pleasant. The online pictures are very,very old because the place was not as bright as they show. The yard and house had ivy overgrown everywhere. Yard absolutely needed some tending to. I read from other vacationers back in sept of this year noting the over grown foliage and it definitely wasn’t attended to. We have pictures to prove what we are talking about. Great location a little fixing up in yard and this place would get a 5star.

Great Space! Great Location!

Wonderful property. Plenty of room for our group of 6 adults and 6 kids (ages 2 thru 15). 1 block from terrific beach access. Less than ¾ miles in either direction from fantastic food/brewery/shops. We stayed Friday to Friday around Memorial Day and only wish we had booked more time. The house is older but really well organized and ridiculously clean. It could use a few minor updates, shower heads specifically. The heated hot tub/pool was perfect for our group with cooler weather still lingering. The decking, fans and lighting around the pool all need some work. But I believe the property manager is aware and trying to make improvements. We loved the property and wouldn't hesitate to spend another week there!

Overall Good

We recently stayed at this home on St. Simons and overall had a good experience, mostly due to the great location. It's close to everything, and the neighborhood is lovely. The house itself definitely has good bones but could use some updates. It has a bit of a shabby feel, but nothing that stopped us from enjoying our time.A few things to note: the downstairs AC doesn’t work very well. We were there during cooler weather, so it wasn’t a huge issue, but I imagine it could be pretty uncomfortable in the summer. The stove also has several burners that don’t work, which was a bit frustrating when trying to cook.The top bunk bed is really only suitable for a small child—there's not much headroom or legroom up there. That said, the outdoor pool area is nice and was one of our favorite spots to hang out and relax.All in all, the house needs some TLC, but the location and layout make it a solid choice if you’re not expecting luxury. We'd stay again, especially if some of the little issues get addressed.
