Nice feeling

A lovely house, a good central location for Laura Walker park and a bit further on, Okeefenokee Swamp. Both really nice. It's $5 to park and no debit card at the ticket machine so, make sure you break a twenty. It would be nice to know how to get to the road that goes UNDER the train line as a train stopped on the road crossing for hours! The house was very well supplied and Shelby is great. 10/10! Loved it all!

Hidden Gem

My sisters and I made a last minute trip to visit our ailing grandmother. I requested to book and Shelby kindly accepted our 1 night vs. her 3 night minimum, due to our circumstances. The house was spotless and had so many nice touches with delicious homemade treats and fresh eggs! My Sisters and I were half a mile from our Grandma and also enjoyed spending some time hanging out on the porch. We will definitely stay here when we return in the future!

I am recently retired and I am enjoying this lifestyle. I am excited about meeting new people and being involved in many activities.
I volunteer with our Hospice House. I also foster animals for our local rescue group.

Why they chose this property

This property is located in a quiet neighborhood that is completely fenced in. Many guests enjoy sitting on the front porch in the rocking chairs. I am only one mile from our hospital and medical facilities. Our YMCA is a little over one mile from the home. The streets are well lit. We are only 70-80 miles from St. Simons Island, Georgia, Fernandina Beach, Florida and 100 miles from Jacksonville Beach, Florida. We have 3 golf courses very close by. And The Okefenokee Swamp Park is only 8 miles from the home.
