Oversized screened porch with patio furniture and a TV leads to a large covered porch with grill and additional seating area - All overlooking the lagoon-style pool and hot tub. Fenced backyard fully equipped with lounge chairs, umbrellas and tables & chairs. Firepit for gathering on those cool evening nights (bring your own wood). The house is on a whole-house water filtration system. Note: the fireplace is for looks-only. It does not function.

**Minimum age of renter is 35 years old, ID required at time of reservation.**
**Property Damage Deposit is $1500.00**

Bedrooms: Owner's Suite and an additional bedroom on the main. The owners suite has a vaulted ceiling with ceiling fan and double French doors leading to covered back porch. Private bath offers double vanities with lighted vanity mirror, oversized shower w/dual shower heads, separate water closet, and large walk-in closet. Additional bedroom on main has access to half bath but will have to either use owner's suite shower or upstairs shower. Upstairs offers 4 spacious bedrooms, 3 with attached full bathrooms, one king bedroom is across the hall from the bathroom. All upstairs bedrooms have TVs with cable, ceiling fans, canned lights and hardwood floors.

Outdoor entertainment: The lagoon-style pool with hot tub is 16x32 and has 4 pool-width sized stairs- perfect if you just want to sit and watch everyone play. The pool can be heated for an additional $100 per day however we would need advanced notice at time of final payment so we can plan for it. The fire pit is great for relaxing in the evening (bring your own firewood) and is accented with outdoor lighting. A large TV is mounted on the screened porch for easy viewing. We have a homemade game board barrel table for checkers. We also have books, cards and puzzles.

Location: We're conveniently located at the corner of Arnold and Demere (pronounced De-ma-ree). We are less than 1/2 a mile to the beach (Massengale Park which is an access point to East Beach, has bathrooms, shaded picnic tables and play ground) and 1 mile to The Village (quaint square with shopping, dining and the pier). Demere park is across the street with a playground, skate park and baseball field - great for play. Fiddlers, Crab Daddy's, Crab Trap, The Still, Beachcomber BBQ & Grill, Barrier Island Brewery and bicycle rentals are located at the next corner on Arnold and Ocean Blvd. King and Prince is at the end of Arnold (just one block further). "The Friendly" gas station is just down the street from us and is great for those last minute items you forgot (butter, milk, firewood and the like). Golf cart rentals are available in The Village and make the stay even more enjoyable.

We built this home with our family in mind. We hope you enjoy your stay and make it an annual tradition to come again. We entrust our home to you and ask that you take great care of it. We're glad you chose to spend your vacation time at the Blue Island Cottage.

Family Trip was PERFECT here!
Location was perfect! I am a realtor in Atlantic Beach Florida for over 16 years, and I have my own short term rental on the ocean. So I can tell you with confidence-this is a great one.. fully stocked with everything you will need to gather with family and friends! It Is beautifully appointed and has plenty of space for a group of 13! Walk to beach just a 10 minute walk and local restaurants and shops…. And across the street from house is a cute park - our boys brought their skateboards for the skate park, and one day we had a family kickball game at the baseball field! There was a playground, but it was being worked on… But there is another playground on the way to the beach that is even bigger!!!! A couple miles away you have the Saint Simons downtown and the pier with even more restaurants bars, and shops! Sweet little town….. We made so many memories! And we will be back!

By far the best vacation rental we've ever stayed in
Communication with Laura was easy and she was quick to answer any questions and address concerns. Property exceeded expectations. Exactly as described and check-in was right on time and easy. Neighborhood is quiet and very safe and close to beach. The house is beautiful and stocked with anything you could ever need and all top of the line. The outside area with the Porches and pool/hot tub and fire pit so serene. The property is spotless. Can't say enough good things about our stay and hope to be back ! Thank you !

Family celebration
Our family's first visit to the island to celebrate a big birthday. The home was gorgeous and large enough to accommodate all of us comfortably. I was happy to see the kitchen was fully stocked with all the essential utensils to satisfy all of our foodies for the food prep. The kids enjoyed the pool and spa every day.. Definitely need a golf cart to get to beach. Would love to visit again.

Host profile image
We live in Atlanta Georgia and love the south. St Simons Island is our get-away place. It's so relaxing and the people are so friendly.

Why they chose this property

This home was built with our family in mind. We have enjoyed coming to St Simons Island for years. We've had a great time every time we come. We relax and enjoy the town and all of its activites, shops and restaurants. Hopefully you will make it a tradition to start coming here too (or continue your tradition if you've already been coming to this little slice of paradise).

What makes this property unique

We love the open layout, private setting, and the quality of construction. It's very close to the beach and village with parks all around us.
