About this property

Blue Moon Cottage | Private Pool, Screened Porch & Walkable Tybee Location

Blue Moon Cottage
A timeless Tybee classic with a private pool, screened porch, and a location that keeps everything within easy reach.

Welcome to Blue Moon Cottage, a charming 1930s retreat, where thoughtful spaces and island tradition come together. This four-bedroom cottage blends classic Tybee character with relaxed outdoor living, the kind of place where families reconnect, kids laugh poolside, and “just one more day” quickly becomes the plan.
Here, it’s easy to slow down, spread out, and discover the joy in every stay.

Why Guests Love Blue Moon Cottage
• Private saltwater pool with optional heating, ideal for summer stays and cooler months.
• Inviting screened-in porch with ceiling fans, privacy curtains, seating, & TV. "Outdoor living without the bugs," as one guest put it.
• All on one level, making the layout easy and intuitive.
• Plenty of yard space for lawn games.
• Walkable location near groceries, dining, shopping, and beach access.

The Space
Blue Moon Cottage is thoughtfully arranged on a single level, with the main living area at the heart of the home, flowing naturally into the kitchen and dining space. The living room feels warm and welcoming, perfect for movie nights, post-beach lounging, or quiet mornings with coffee.

The kitchen is full of vintage-inspired personality, featuring open shelving, a deep farmhouse sink, and custom baby-blue Big Chill appliances that perfectly complement the cottage’s coastal charm. Enjoy meals together at the dining table, which seats six, plus additional seating at the island for casual breakfasts or evening snacks.

Bedrooms are comfortably spread throughout the home, offering privacy for everyone in your group. The primary bedroom features a king bed and an attached full bathroom. Two additional bedrooms offer queen beds, one with a convenient attached half bathroom. The fourth bedroom includes two twin beds, making it ideal for kids or younger guests. A centrally located full bathroom is easily accessible from the living area.

Outdoor Living, the Tybee Way
Outdoor living is where Blue Moon Cottage truly shines. The screened-in porch quickly becomes a favorite gathering spot, perfect for outdoor dining, reading, rainy-day lounging, or even getting some work done at the dedicated porch desk.
The pool offers a refreshing escape, with the option to add heat for an additional fee during cooler seasons. After a day at the beach, rinse off in the outdoor shower before unwinding poolside or enjoying yard games in the open outdoor space.

Location Highlights
Blue Moon Cottage is centrally located on Tybee Island, offering convenience without being caught in the busiest public areas.
• Approximately 1,229 feet to the 12th Street beach crossover
• About 600 feet to the IGA grocery store, easy walks for daily essentials
• Walkable to Strand Avenue, Treylor Park Beach Party, and StingRay’s Restaurants

The Blue Moon cottage is a delightful stay. It screams vintage beachy fun. It is well stocked with everything you need for a family or friends trip. The large porch is the perfect gathering spot for games and good conversation. Regardless of the weather outside it is always sunny in the Blue Moon Cottage.

We had a wonderful time at this home. It was clean, easy access to the activities and beach. The host was responsive and nice. The home had plenty of space for our group of 8. The porch provided us with extra room to spread out. We didn’t get to use the pool due to the weather ,but it looked clean and inviting. We would definitely stay here again! Oh and the home was beautifully decorated

Quaint & Comfortable

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home is adorable with all the vintage touches. The wrap around porch is a lovely spot for morning coffee or evening cocktails. Nice to get fresh air without the bugs. The beds are very comfortable and the fans in each bedroom allow for maximum comfort. The pool is a wonderful amenity. While small with limited space around it, it was a good spot for a toddler who does not swim yet. The additional ledge within the water was a plus. Joy was responsive and helpful when we were looking for recommendations. We had to cut our time on Tybee short due to unforeseen circumstances. It would have been nice to put the pool and porch to more use.
