About this property

The Wheel House - Private Pool - Large Historic Home - One Block to Beach

This Tybee Island home was built in 1920 and served as one of 3 trains stations which used to be the only land transportation to and from Savannah.  After automobiles were able to access the island the train utilization dimished and the home became a bed and breakfast.  This home has had many renovations over the years, the latest renovation included a new pool.  You can enjoy the history and charm of this large historic home with you friends and family.  The home is fully furnished and includes HD TVs in the living areas and bedrooms (except the room with bunk beds)  Two of  the bathrooms have jetted tubs and one is even a blue tooth bathroom so you can listen to music in the shower.  The kitchen is fully stocked with all the items you will need to prepare meals for your family and friends.  The bedrooms and bathrooms are also fully stocked with linens and towels.  

The main gathering area consists of casual dining areas, foosball and air hockey games for the kids.

I stated in this house 11 years ago and the house needs a lot of work on itThe house needs repairs
The house needs repairs!! The master shower did not work, the bathroom by the king bed on the first floor door knob needs to be replaced...my grand daughter was stuck in the bathroom. TV in the bedroom and the one near game tables did not work! The house needs to be cleaned. The kitchen needs updating.

Great house overall
This house is a great big quirky house. If you love rambling houses where everyone has space, this is definitely one to look at!

Wheelhouse Review
The house is nice however the kitchen in not well stocked at all. No cleaning supplies, trash bags, etc. While the pool was great to have it was not well cleaned and we had to do it ourselves. There are not enough blankets and the bunk beds are very old. Light bulbs were out and no screens on several doors and windows. This could be such a nice property if it were better maintained.
