    The property was good to acomodate all 6 of us. The parking was a litte tricky, but everything else was great.

    Overall, we had a pleasant stay because Saint Simons is a lovely place. The property management company was fantastic, attentive, and responded quick if I needed to message them. The house was clean and charming. Unfortunately, there was construction on the house directly next-door and it really made it hard with one of our dogs that we brought who has anxiety. We also were looking forward to sitting out on the patio, which is one of the reasons why we booked this house. Unfortunately, the construction workers were directly next to us, and we did not feel comfortable. It would’ve been nice to know this ahead of time.

    Great location and walking distance to many shops and restaurants. The beach is just across the street and a really nice place to spend the day- not too crowded. We would definitely stay here again.

    The location was excellent… but everything else was just meh. This place has a lot of potential, but needs a refresh and a deep clean. House was not well cleaned before our stay. Dirty windows, doors and mirrors. Furniture was old and rugs stained. Bathrooms were small for the number of beds. Toilet paper, trash bags, soap, etc was rationed to the point of ridiculous. WiFi wasn’t reliable. We enjoyed our time immensely despite these things, but for the price being paid I expected better.

    This cottage is truly a beach cottage with great updates. The property manager replied quickly to my questions. The house was clean and well decorated. Located near the village and the beach. We will definitely stay here again!

    On our first night there was no heat. We contacted Property Management immediately. Please keep in mind it was 40 degrees outside and it was totally unacceptable to have no heat. The house had a smart thermostat that indicated an error and property management was aware of this issue but no one was monitoring the warning. We asked for a space heater and was refused. A maintenance man did stop by but was not an electrician and not much he could offer but to try and reset the thermostat. I started texting property management the next morning about 9:30 am and received a text stating it was Sunday and a holy day and please be patient as the staff was attending church, however, I could send them a Prayer Request... what are you freaking kidding me. A prayer request was not going to get me heat. I continued to send text and was finally told an electrician would be out to repair the issue but they could not provide an estimated time. Therefore, we were stuck at the property until the electrician arrived, which was 5pm in the afternoon. Also, after many complaints we did receive a space heater at 2:00 in the afternoon. I understand things break, however, there were plenty of other electricians but this company only wanted to use a specific company and to not supply a space heater is totally unacceptable. I did receive 1 night compensation but I had to insist for that to be issued.

    Loved the central living space with large sofa, chairs and table where we could gather. Also the deck when it wasn’t raining. Comfortable beds. Very clean. One street over from beach and a little over a half mile walk to stores/restaurants/lighthouse/pier. We all agreed we should stay longer next time.

    This house was perfect for our family! Walking distance to pier & Crabdaddys. Beach was a shorter walk than advertised! The property manager was SO NICE!! Very clean and everything was perfect.
