Why Stay on East Beach:
The stretch of beach along the ocean side of St. Simons Island is known as East Beach. A quant neighborhood of single-family homes begins at the access point of the U.S. Coast Guard Station at the northern tip and ends at the southern point of Gould's Inlet by access of Bruce Drive, which runs down the center of East Beach. The Coast Guard Station houses the present home to the World War II Home Front Museum.

MORE INFO

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 is not a pet friendly home.

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

Guest Review

by Mary
Loved the proximity to the beach. Cottage was nicely decorated and very comfortable

Guest Review

by Ryanne
This place was awesome for a family beach vacation. A short walk to and from the beach each day within a very private and quiet neighborhood felt ideal for us. Our family likes to stay clear of noise and parties while vacationing and spend most our time on foot and not in the car. It was nice to have a full kitchen as well to cook our food and laundry access for the kids.

Guest Review

by Clayton
This is our second time staying in this lovely beachside cottage. Adorable, Perfect location. We look forward to coming back. Thank you!

Guest Review

by Henry
Very nice high end looking place. We loved the decor and the high end appliances and decent kitchen knife set since we like to cook on vacation. The location was perfect. The king size bed was great with plenty of pillows. We would definitely stay here again.

Guest Review

by Rachel
We had a great stay at Ryan‘s house. The home is decorated very cute for a beach vacation and it was spotless. They had everything we needed to cook in the kitchen plus some seasonings and other items. We were on a quiet street and were able to walk to the beach. The patio outback was a perfect place for our kids to play, to eat and to hang out and relax. Highly recommend!

Great location

by Joe
Very convenient walk to East Beach. Short drive to town, or an easy bike ride.

Great space with a short walk to the beach.

by Brad
Our family of 3 fit nicely in this cute home. Plenty of linens and well stocked kitchen. When we arrived there was no grill as advertised, however, we contacted the property manager and had one on the porch within hours. Nice neighborhood for waking/jogging and the walk to the beach was not bad at all. We enjoyed our time here!

We spent a wonderful long weekend at the cottage. We found it all very comfortable, clean, and convenient. The location was ideal for easy access to the beach and restaurants.

by Karen
This is a lovely unit in a quiet neighborhood and very close to the beach. Everything is new and clean. The furniture and beds are really comfy, and the kitchen is laid out well and fairly well equipped for cooking. The beach access just a block away (coast guard beach) is crowded, but biking a few blocks to 11th or 12th street put us on a much quieter part of the beach.

Online Review

by Daniel
We had a great time - they're right when they say the coast guard entrance is easier and more accessible than the 2nd street entrance. nice neighborhood, easy and close to everything. would stay again

Which place is it

by Bob
No house number. We had a tough time finding the rental because there was no number on the house. We finally found out where it was by finding the patio in the picture. I really liked all the things they provided like dishwasher soap

by Mary Eva
Great location - just steps to the beach and within walking distance to multiple restaurants. The cottage is very cute and clean with all of the needed amenities!

Online Review

by Christine
Great little spot super close to East Beach! Was a little hard to find the front door when we went to check in in the dark (look for the patio), but everything was great once we found it and the king bed was extremely comfortable!

5 Stars!! Great location and very clean!

by Mark
Had a fantastic stay. Everything was exactly as advertised. The location, in easy walking distance to the second street beach, could not be beat; very close, yet very quiet and private. This was perfect for my wife and I. I used the second bedroom, which had a nice desk set up, for keeping up on work. The patio area out front was comfortable and very private. Kitchen was adequately stocked with everything we needed. The home is immaculately clean, and the bed was super comfortable. Would definitely book here again.

Beautifully done cottage feel walking distance to the beach. Early communication and easy check in from the prop manager. Will love to stay there again.

Great Place to Stay on St. Simons

by Adam
We had a great stay at this cottage. The check-in process and communication was fantastic and the house is nice and felt new inside. It's in a great location on East Beach that is very close to the ocean and Coast Guard station.

Online Review

by Kim
Went here for a long weekend with my mom and sister and it was amazing! The space was sparkling clean and very comfortable. Easy check in too with a code on the door! Located in a quiet neighborhood and steps away from a beautiful beach and a short drive to the pier that had shops and restaurants. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for a relaxing getaway!

Beautiful condo, and excellent location! It was an easy walk to the beach. We enjoyed our stay and can't wait to go back!

Great place. Great location.

Online Review

by Jacqueline
This place was a total delight and the location was perfect. You can walk to the beach in less than 5 minutes and bike to the center of town in under 10 minuets. The neighborhood isn't crowded either so we had an easy time socially distancing. We enjoyed the layout and thoughtful organization of the space. This condo is spotlessly clean.

Overall a lovely place, very close to the beach and to restaurants. We had a wonderful stay.

Great Condo Next to the Beach

by Natalie
We absolutely loved our stay on 2nd street. The home was fully stocked with everything we needed and the brand new furnishings/finishes were fantastic. The home was very clean and more spacious than it looked in pictures. Only downside was the infestation of mosquitoes, not sure if the whole island was experiencing this problem or if it was unique to this area. They were absolutely swarming us every time we went outside. There was a ton of rain while we were on the island, so this is no fault of the owners. We would definitely recommend this house for someone looking to be off of the hustle and bustle of the main tourist area, but still close to everything and right next to the beach! Would definitely recommend!
