About this house rental
Whelk Come Inn to your south Tybee beach vacation. This vintage-era Tybee cottage welcomes you home with two bedrooms, plus a bonus room for kids, a fenced yard, and a cute outdoor patio with twinkle lights to set the mood for a good time on Tybee. Located just a block and a half from the famous South end main beach and an easy walk to restaurants, shopping, and nightlife, this sweet little home will be a perfect fit for a fun beach getaway with family or friends.
Step up into this cozy cottage that has a front sun-room that is bright and inviting and includes a sleeper sofa and a flat-screen TV. The home has been remodeled, but still features original finishes in the bedrooms, with wood-paneled walls and a charming historic feel. The two bedrooms are each furnished with a Queen Size bed, and both have wall-mounted flat-screen TVs. The bathroom connects the bedrooms with a walk-in shower, each with its access door. There is a bonus room furnished with twin bunk beds, perfect for kids.
To the back of the house are the kitchen and the eating area. The kitchen is fully equipped and includes a large serving/breakfast bar, perfect for entertaining while preparing evening meals. The breakfast bar has seating for 4, and the dining table has room to seat 6 comfortably. The back door from the kitchen leads to a lovely patio with a gas grill and an outdoor dining table for 6. The detached utility room includes a full-size washer and a dryer and an additional bathroom with a walk-in shower - perfect for rinsing off after a long day at the beach.
Bring your bikes or rent some while you are here; it is the best way to see the island! This home is ideally located between 18th Street beach access and back river beach access at Inlet Avenue, which is a perfect place to stroll the shoreline at sunset, searching for the ideal whelk.

We love this cottage, it was our third time there. It wasn't as clean this time, and we reported some damage we found.

6.0 / 10.0Average·Mar 2025
Check in was easy, even though we were reached out to the day after about our place being ready via text. The layout itself is a bit odd, but it didn’t bother us. The bathroom in the floor is very very weak, and needs replacing immediately. I did reach out to the rental agency. It looks painted over and the paint is already weathering away. Husband spotted a nail popped up in the bathroom as well. We wore shoes when we ventured in that room. The bunkbeds were a hit with our kids. Some of our linens did have some yellow permanent staining but you could tell they had been laundered. Location was awesome, we walked to the beach most of the time but to get around town we rented from the golf cart pros. One of the cabinets glass windows were missing in the kitchen. There’s a keurig, silverware, cups, etc. The home is on a small lot and we could see our neighbors very closely when they mowed. I wish there was a curtain on the front door window for privacy. The neighborhood is quiet during the day. I do think there should be an handrail on the steps for older visitors. We received a nice welcome tote from the rental agency. Overall, this place is very promising and has the basics of what you need. A place to stay (for singles, couples, or small family) for a couple of nights for a great price. It has a lot of potential and I loved the vintage aspects. It just needs a little updating and TLC.
