Palmetto Cottage – 116 Florence Street

Palmetto Cottage - 116 Florence Street

3 Bedrooms 2 Bathrooms Sleeps 8 St Simons Island

Palmetto Cottage is one of the very few remaining original 1930’s beach cottages in the King City section of the village. The cottage is located within the block to the ocean on Florence Street and just a few minutes of a walk to the Village. Our charming cottage is nestled beneath massive Live Oak trees draped with Spanish moss and is the epitome of laid-back island living, that St Simons was known for in the 30’s and 40’s. Lovingly restored by the family whose great grandparents originally owned the land, Palmetto Cottage is full of original details and unique features that are nearly 100 years old complimented with modern convinces you expect. The renovation that added the loft bedroom kept the cottage feel while adding ample space for your guests. The back deck is perfect for a low country boil or use the beach shower after coming in from the water. Relax at the end of the night on the screened front porch and if it rains, you will love the cozy sounds of the rain on the metal roof. Combining 1930’s styling with 2000’s convinces, Palmetto Cottage is truly one of a kind.
Palmetto Cottage is the sister property to The Treehouse, sleeps 8 and walk to the Village


THE SPACE

Entry to Palmetto Cottage is on the main deck level, next door to The Treehouse. From here you are in the open Family room (sleeper sofa) with a smart TV, Dining table for 8 guest and a generous sized kitchen with a single serve and drip style coffee makers, and a blender.

Behind family room is a laundry room with washer and dryer. And off the family room is an open deck area shaded by Live Oaks.

Down the hall is a bathroom with a shower, King Size bedroom with small sunroom (ideal for a pack-n-play, provided by the owner). Across the hall is an additional King Size bedroom with adjoining bathroom with combination tub/shower.

Sneak upstairs to the loft where you can retreat to a queen size bed. This is a cute little hideaway.
Enjoy the screened in front porch with a dining table, porch swing and 2 side chairs.

Note: This home is connected via a breezeway to the adjacent house, The Treehouse. The breezeway connects to The Treehouse's garage via a locked door. You will not have access to The Treehouse garage and Treehouse guests will not be able to access Palmetto Cottage.

If you need more space, consider renting both!


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.

The Palmetto Cottage did not disappoint! Walkable to shops, restaurants and the ocean. The cottage is a great place to hangout with your family. I love how the owners kept all the original details of the cottage intact with the updated comforts. The screened in porch is a great place to read a book and relax. We would definitely stay here again!

Quaint, updated cottage, easy walk to village, pier, restaurants, lighthouse. The cottage was very comfortable on a quiet street. Easy walk to beach access - beach available at low tide.

Great place, cool deck, everyone was helpful and professional. Place looks cooler in person, got some gasps from the kids when they walked in! So yea, definitely worth it.

The setting of this cottage is beautiful. We felt like we were in a woodsy hollow covered by beautiful live oak trees. We really enjoyed having breakfast & reading on the screened in porch. The cottage offers lots of character & charm and is just a quick walk to town & the pier. The neighborhood is quiet and fun to walk or ride a bike around and take in the views of the surrounding lovely homes. I'll definitely book this cottage again in the future!
