I had a family emergency and had to leave in less than 24 hours. My few hours were nice but ended up very expensive for me. Unloaded spent the night loaded back up because of my mothers very serious illness. I contacted VRBO but seems there are no exceptions no matter what

My husband was overjoyed at the location and the private fishing dock. I enjoyed sitting and watching the wildlife, looking at all the flowers and plants on the property, the sweet precious furbaby, and the host with the most - Tommy! The shower was great, having the washer and dryer was amazing because I despise having dirty laundry. The kitchen was easy to clean in, and the lack of clutter made it easy to keep up with our belongings, and check out. When our grandson came we did not have to worry about any mishaps with personal items of the property owner. If you like SUPER firm beds, as my husband does, the beds are great. As for me I used about 8 pillows (there were plenty) because I like soft beds :) ). If you are a bit of a "Princess and the Pea" like me, you might want to bring a bit of cushion to help when you lay down. Everything about this place made me feel like I was on a private island paradise, even though we were deep in a neighborhood. By the end of the first day I was ready to make it a Snowbird Paradise, but alas, day 4 came and it was time to pack up and leave. :( AU Revoir!

Great vacation for a great price

Nice, comfortable and peaceful. Away from the hustle and bustle of hotels. Easy driving to anywhere on the island.

My husband and I recently visited Saint Simons Island for the first time and booked this property for 5 days 4 nights. The property was a short drive to all the local attractions of the island, was very clean and well supplied with all the things we needed for our stay. We enjoyed being able to use the dock house for fishing and especially having the swing to just relax and have our coffee. Being able to sit and watch the tidal changes of the river was the most amazing thing we've ever seen. We had such a wonderful time and would definitely stay here again. Thank you Mr. Tommy for sharing your home with us. The Deal's

I have nothing but good things to say about Tommy and his property! This was our first time to SSI and can confidently say we’ll be back again! After a potential hurricane changed our plans over Labor Day, Tommy was very accommodating and let us change our weekend. The apartment is very nice, well-kept and fully stocked, he even let us bring our dog Ellie and she loved it as much as we did. Tommy was so approachable and gave great tips on enjoying the island. Some great restaurants include: Iguanas, Crab Daddies and Brogan’s and are all about 10 minutes from Tommy’s place. We can’t wait to come back next year!

Had a fabulous week in this quirky little apartment on the west side of St Simons overlooking river and salt marshes. An altogether more relaxed experience than when we've previously stayed in frou frou properties near the village! Apartment feels larger than it looks, and while simply furnished, contains everything you'll need to kick back and opt out of the rat race (toaster, micowave, blender, cookware, etc). We enjoyed the absence of fake beach decor and throw pillows. The outdoor grilling area is well-equipped and totally charming. The covered dock and swing was the deal-maker for us, perfect for enjoying the ebb and flow of the tides, reading a book and sipping a cocktail. The teeny beach was so cute, but we got bitten to shreds by sand flies (take repellent!). Tommy made us feel welcome and was around when needed, though careful not to invade our privacy. We loved being able to bring our young dog and let him run around on the lovely old property (the two rented apartments are below the main house at ground level, so be ready for a small amount of noise above if staying in the one-bedroom), surrounded by live oaks, palms. citrus trees and Spanish moss. It actually wasn't an issue to drive the 10 minutes to the beach (we especially liked Gould's Inlet), or out to restaurants, where we found patios where our puppy was welcome (we liked the laid back seafood experience at Iguana's, and crab cakes at Barbara Jean's). Of the two apartments, we thought this one-bed is actually the more spacious and comfortable, with plenty of space for our teen to take one bed, while we took the other. The dishwasher and washer/dryer were a plus. Both units together would be great for an extended family. We wondered how things would go when the other apartment was rented and we had to share the facilities, but a lovely family arrived half-way through the week, their son adopted our puppy and we enjoyed watching them fish!

Tommy is great! Super nice guy and his place is awesome. We stayed in the one bedroom unit for a month. There is plenty of room in the unit and the kitchen is well stocked with cooking and utensils. The area is great- not far from anything. Very convenient for getting on and off the island without having to go down Demere. I think we spent every morning and evening on the deck he has on the water. We fished and crabbed. Saw gators and manatee. And the sunsets are just beautiful. Just a couple of things to note- Tommy is an early riser and you are in a basement apartment so you will hear him when he gets up in the mornings and the a/c for this unit is the same for the main house, so you don’t have control of that -but Tommy will adjust it anytime you ask. I just felt bad for asking Overall we enjoyed our stay very much and will be back again. Thank you Tommy!
