Our stay was amazing! This house was even better in person than the pictures let on. We were very happy to have a pool in the heat and everyone fit very comfortably in the house. Would stay here again!

A beautiful home and a great location. It was a perfect place to spend Thanksgiving with our family.

Guest Review

Loved our stay- each room is private and separate from common areas (so nice with kids!). Unique layout that really works well. Would 100% stay again!

Guest Review

by Anna
This house was more than enough room for our group of 7! We loved the porches and spent a lot of time on them. We also appreciated how organized the kitchen was. The labels on the cabinets and drawers was really helpful

Guest Review

Great house with great and responsive host. Perfect location right next to the beach with a clean house and even beach chairs and pool toys were provided for us.

Guest Review

by Claire
This is a wonderful place to stay- we loved the location and the house had everything we needed. We'd never been to St Simons and I was so glad we ended up in this neighborhood. Beautiful house and the hosts were super responsive.

Guest Review

by Jana
Better than the photos! Location was perfect for walking to the beach and the house was a dream. Spotlessly clean, plenty of space, en-suite bathrooms for each room, well equipped kitchen. The patios and pools were perfect for hanging outside and all the appliances worked well. The kids' room even had blackout curtains, which was just an unexpected but completely appreciated touch! We loved everything about our stay and would definitely come here again!

We had an incredible family stay at Live Oak! The porch is just as amazing as the pictures show. The beach is a close walk but I would recommend a golf cart rental to watch the sunset at Ghouls Inlet!
