1st night no Heat
On our first night there was no heat. We contacted Property Management immediately. Please keep in mind it was 40 degrees outside and it was totally unacceptable to have no heat. The house had a smart thermostat that indicated an error and property management was aware of this issue but no one was monitoring the warning. We asked for a space heater and was refused. A maintenance man did stop by but was not an electrician and not much he could offer but to try and reset the thermostat. I started texting property management the next morning about 9:30 am and received a text stating it was Sunday and a holy day and please be patient as the staff was attending church, however, I could send them a Prayer Request... what are you freaking kidding me. A prayer request was not going to get me heat. I continued to send text and was finally told an electrician would be out to repair the issue but they could not provide an estimated time. Therefore, we were stuck at the property until the electrician arrived, which was 5pm in the afternoon. Also, after many complaints we did receive a space heater at 2:00 in the afternoon. I understand things break, however, there were plenty of other electricians but this company only wanted to use a specific company and to not supply a space heater is totally unacceptable. I did receive 1 night compensation but I had to insist for that to be issued.

Great house! Great location!
Loved the central living space with large sofa, chairs and table where we could gather. Also the deck when it wasn’t raining. Comfortable beds. Very clean. One street over from beach and a little over a half mile walk to stores/restaurants/lighthouse/pier. We all agreed we should stay longer next time.

“Life’s a Beach” cottage was perfect for us and our pup. Walk to the beach, many restaurants and easy walk to downtown. Great neighborhood for morning walks with our dog. Property managers were friendly and quick to reply to any questions. Easy check in. We appreciated how well equipped the kitchen was. Great for making meals at home. Thanks for a fun week in SSI!

Near the Beach
Pros: Clean, dog friendly cottage near the beach; quiet area Cons: poor outdoor lighting around the property ;One parking spot for one vehicle Although No Parking signs were placed in the front yard after OUR arrival, an unmarked vehicle parked a van in front of the rental house (we notified the rental company) Acorns hit the tin roof throughout the day and night (restless nights)

Gem cottage in a gem of a town!
Loved this cottage! It was perfect for a 4 day birthday/girls trip! There was plenty of space & more for all 5 of us. Literally one block from the beach- found access through a walkway right across the street which was so nice! The bathrooms were on the smaller size but rooms were very large with plenty of space to get ready!! The large couch was perfect for movie night and playing games as was the kitchen table for eating meals together. Multiple entrances to the house made it easy to load/unload. Washer & dryer was helpful-plenty of dishes and cookware. Be sure to bring extra toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, as they are not supplied outside of 1 per each bathroom. The outside shower was helpful to rinse off our feet after coming from the beach. Everything was very close- you can walk just about everywhere within 15 minutes! Will be back.

Dodged the storm
My daughters and I stayed the weekend Hurricane Ian came up the Atlantic Coast. Megan at Covenant Property Management was great. She helped me plan when to arrive. We lost one night, but we all arrived safe and sound. The house is lovely. Easy walk to the beach and 10ish min to the village. I'm sure it depends on the time of year, but I believe the oak tree was dropping acorns on the tin roof. Glad I had earplugs. Another young woman from Covenant came by to check on us as well. I cannot remember her name, but she was very nice. We had a great time.

We really enjoyed staying in this darling, 3 bed, 2 bath home that appeared recently renovated and clean! The open floor plan is ideal and the location is a quick walk to the beach and downtown! We would stay there again in a heart beat if we ever visit St Simon’s again!

Excellent location, beautiful upgrades
This cottage is fantastic! The 3 bedrooms are larger than I anticipated. The vaulted ceilings in the master with the wood paneling is idyllic...complete with tin roof for the rain! Plenty of closet space for everyone. The upgrades in the kitchen were perfect and allowed for open flow to the living and dining room. The ceilings throughout the cottage are taller than you'd think and the wood and tile floors were easy for us to clean up sand. The yard was excellent for the kids and dog to run around. One block to the beach and a short walk to the pier village- location can't be beat!

Very comfortable and well-equipped cottage, has basics in the kitchen and bathrooms (no beach towels, chairs or umbrellas) but was very confortable and well-appointed. Close to everything in town, right across the st. to the beach, has a nice outdoor shower and side entrance, appliances are all new and in working condition. Recommend it!

Great Spring Break Retreat
911 Ocean Blvd St. Simons Island GA was charming. Going through the arch as you approached front door made me feel like I was leaving life's stresses behind and entering relaxation. The cottage was clean and very well appointed. The white washed wooden walls and vaulted ceiling in master gave the house a real beachy feel. The king and queen size beds were comfy. The bunk beds though were not as comfortable. The kitchen was so fashionable. It was like it came out of a magazine. I liked the counter tops so much I may put same kind in my kitchen that we are in process of remodeling. It's one block proximity to the beach encouraged multiple beach outing per day. Resturants and stores were only a short walk in either direction of the cottage. The outside deck was the perfect place for my granddaughter to sort through her seashell treasures. Overall, we had a great time. Thank you.
