Welcome to Beach Crew Cottage, a retro-modern retreat packed with surprises and built for real vacation living. This single-level, 3,000 sq. ft. home features one of the island’s best private pools, a fully fenced backyard, dual kitchens, and more space than you’d ever expect from the street.
Inside, you’ll find vaulted ceilings, a gas fireplace, and an oversized living room with smart TV and open flow into the dining area and kitchen. A bonus coffee and cocktail bar adds charm, while the second kitchen near the bunk rooms makes this home a favorite for larger groups, long stays, or multigenerational getaways.
Tucked along Georgia’s coastline, the Golden Isles are a collection of unspoiled barrier islands located midway between Savannah and Jacksonville. This coastal escape offers something for every kind of traveler — whether you’re visiting with family, exploring the outdoors, casting a line, hitting the links, or diving into centuries of history. With gentle winters, wide natural beaches, miles of winding salt marsh, and maritime forests where live oaks are wrapped in Spanish moss, the landscape alone invites you to slow down and stay awhile. Historic landmarks dating back to the 1700s and abundant coastal wildlife only add to the island’s enduring charm.
Our hope is that you’ll come to love this island as much as we do — from the endless opportunities for adventure to the stunning scenery that earned national and international recognition as one of the world’s top beach destinations by Travel + Leisure. Here, you’ll find beautiful beaches, destination-worthy dining, soothing spas, a deep-rooted local culture, and one-of-a-kind shops. But more than anything, it’s the welcoming spirit of the people that gives the Golden Isles their true sense of home.
Settle in. Unwind. You belong here.

Neighbourhood
Our neighborhood is a mix of older homes that have been redone, new builds, and original homes from the 1940's. It is tree lined with spanish moss and beautiful to walk around.
It is a short walk to the playground, tennis courts, baseball fields and pickleball courts as well as the little "village" with shops, restaurants and a fishing pier. The seafood is fresh and the southern charm is everywhere!
Getting to my home
You can flying into the Atlanta (ATL) airport and drive 4.5 hours or you can fly into Jacksonville, Florida. (JAX) and drive about an hour. There are also smaller airports of Savannah and St. Simons Island that might be closer depending on where you are coming from.
Getting Around
You will need to rent a car or golf cart to get around the island.

We are looking for a 3-4 week long exchange overseas for the month of July 2026 and 2027, as well as 1-2 weeks skiing during Christmas 2026. For our St. Simons house, please check the calendar as it is up to date. We would love to host you in either place!
