Wonderful property and great layout

by Debra
We really enjoyed being able to get away for quiet time from the beach and enjoy the pool on site. The bedrooms are wonderfully laid out with space enough between them for privacy. We will definitely be interested in staying here again should we come back to St Simons.

Guest Review

by Paul
Our adult children and some grandchildren had an awesome time at this property! The pool was great to keep kids occupied and we loved the frequent beach walks. Perfect for separation as a g family had decent bedroom space and nice bathrooms! Would visit again!!

June 2024 - 5 stars

by James
We took our two 10-year old boys for a special birthday weekend. The house was perfect for us. We loved the layout of the main level, the front deck and private backyard and pool. Easy walk to the beach. Just a great space all around with the open kitchen and family room and screened porch overlooking the pool. Thanks for a great stay!

Live Oak Retreat-Fantastic Stay

by Susan
This is fantastic property, one of if not the best we've stayed in at St. Simons. It's perfect for multiple families, as each bedroom is spacious and has access to its own bathroom. The best we've stayed at that regard. Living area could use a slightly larger table for meals and some slightly more comfortable furniture. We would definitely consider staying here again.

Best Family vacation

by Christi
The pictures don't do the house and neighborhood justice - it is magical! We had several family members meet here for this vacation, we had plenty of space, great beds and bathrooms. The pool was amazing and lovely everyone to play in. Easy beautiful walk to the beach, actually close to many points of entry! East Beach is full of beautiful homes and landscaping and is a great place for walking, biking, golf carting, all of it. You are very close to a couple of amazing parks for kids playgrounds, tennis, Pickleball, all the fun! Near so many fantastic restaurants, a couple of great grocery stores, coffee shops. We are already planning our next trip to St Simons Island, we are in love!

Guest Review

by Madison
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!

Lovely home and neighborhood! Super responsive to every question!

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!

Guest Review

Beautiful home on East Beach! I don’t have one negative thing to say about this house and we will definitely rent this one again!

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 Mack
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 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

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

Excellent property

by larry
Great stay House was updated and even better than described

Live Oak family vacay

by Lindsay
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!

Great place!!!

by Robin
Without a doubt, we would stay here again!
