About this house rental

This lovely home is furnished with the intrinsic beauty of water color - from the greys of the Atlantic to the shimmering blue sparkles from the backyard pool by day, or dazzling LED colors at night. Decor in each room is subtle and relaxing, with grays, greens, and blues throughout. The signature touch inside the house is the growing collection of watercolor paintings by artists including Alan Casey, and others. Most of the art was painted on the island by artists who loved Saint Simons Island.

The private pool is 13' x 27' - long enough to swim laps and wide enough for the whole family to splash together. The pool is 3'6" deep on the shallow end and 5'6" on the deep end. It features bench seating on each end. For an additional fee of $75/day+tax the pool can be heated during your stay.

You may never leave the back yard! But if you do, it will certainly be to stroll down to the beautiful Saint Simons beach, just 156 steps from the front porch to the sand. When you get back from a day at the beach, enjoy our heated outdoor shower before dipping again in the pool! In fact you may enjoy all of your showers in the outdoor shower.

Note: Starting July 2026 there is a new home being built two houses down. I've adjusted rates to reflect there may be noise at times.

Baby gear we have at the house:
- Pack-N-Play
- High Chair (booster style that straps to a chair, has a washable food tray)

Updates not photographed: We've removed the wall between the kitchen and dining room and removed the popcorn ceilings downstairs.

Pool is approximately 13 x 27ft

Located on the south end of the Island, St. Simons Pier Village district serves as the downtown social hub and is a popular destination for shopping, dining and gathering on the pier and nearby lighthouse, playground and picnic areas. Overlooking the ocean and Jekyll Island across the way, you'll find the St. Simons Lighthouse and Museum, Neptune Park with its ocean side pool and facilities, playground, miniature golf course, and an oak shaded picnic area, fishing pier, public library and theater.

MORE INFO
Beach Gear Included!: This home offers beach gear such as beach chairs and beach towels FREE for your use! Bikes, carts, paddleboards and more are available for rent locally, discount included. There are no fees or surcharges attached to your reservation.

Legacy Collection Home: This home is part of the Lighthouse Legacy Collection, a celebrated group of St. Simons Island's original beach cottages. Built in the 1930s and 1940s, these homes have been thoughtfully restored to preserve their historic character while offering modern comforts and preserving the architectural charm that makes them unique. What makes these cottages special are the features that can't be replicated in new construction—unique floor plans, original architectural details, cozy room proportions, and the charm that comes from decades of island history. As with any historic home, guests may notice differences from a newly built property. Rooms may be smaller, floors and walls may show the character of age, and the layout may reflect a different era of coastal living. Rather than the perfection of a new home, these cottages offer an authentic St. Simons experience filled with warmth, personality, and timeless appeal. If you appreciate history, character, and coastal nostalgia, we invite you to enjoy this special home.

Pets: This home is dog friendly with $150 pet fee, 2 dogs max. Unfortunately we can't host breeds known to insurance carriers as 'vicious', please ask if you're not sure.

Heated Pool: This property offers a heated pool option. The cost is $75/night+tax and can be added up to 48 hours before arrival. Let us know if you'd like to heat the pool!

No Smoking: No smoking is allowed in the home, on the porches/patios/decks, or on the property in general.

Minimum Age: Must be 25 + to book, or age 30 + on GAFL weekend (last weekend in October) For GAFL weekend (last weekend in October), guests must be age 30 + or kids with their parents, no student groups. We cannot make exceptions for that weekend.

No Events: No events or parties. No overnight guests beyond the original booking group.

10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2026
The family and the pets enjoyed this beach cottage. The location was perfect, across the street from the beach and a bike ride or a short walk to downtown shopping and restaurants! We paid to have the pool heated and the only issue we ran into was that the pool was overheated due to a broken display on the pool heater. I texted Lighthouse and they had king gentleman there to fix it right away. The house has a lot of charm for it's age with sloping floors exposed beams and cracks w through the doors where you can see outside, but we loved it! We will definitely be returning!

Very clean, great location.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2024
This house has a great location. We have stayed in homes directly on the beach that have had a longer walk to the water. It is literally around the corner to the beach. The house is quaint but with plenty of room. We loved the old school charm and renovations.
6 / 10Average·Oct 2023
Get location. Cute house with some updates here and there but a little rickety. A little pricey for what you get. Master bedroom bed too loud to sleep on comfortably. The extra cost to heat the pool was pricy and pool wasn’t heated, but just one single day (check in being on Wednesday and check out on Sunday). Overall okay cute place close to town.
