Charming East Beach Cottage!

We loved our stay at the High Life Cottage! We were in town for a family wedding and enjoyed the easy access to the beach, the beautiful yard and great patio/pool deck! There was plenty of living space and the bunk room was a hit with the kids. A short drive to everything and a quiet, peaceful neighborhood great for walking and bike rides.

Wonderful family vacation spot

Everything about this cottage was wonderful. It’s absolutely perfect for enjoying family with plenty of space suited for visiting, meals, watching movies or games on tv, or just relaxing in peace. The outside area is gorgeous and well suited for lounging. The distance to the beach is super short and the golf cart offered fun transportation to many fun spots on the island. Everything you need is there:kitchen setup, beach toweks, beach chairs. Communication with the hostess was also amazing! I just can’t say enough good things. On our second day there, we were talking about when we could come back!

Great Spot

My family and I had a delightful time in this home on East Beach. We loved the area and the short walk to beach. The pool was great—nice if you don’t want full sun all day as it does get shaded at varying points during the day. The layout of the home was open and spacious, and much larger than we thought from pictures. Lots of towels, including beach towels, baby gear, and some beach chairs are all provided. We would definitely stay here again!

Great Family Vacation

Our whole family agreed that this was the best family vacation yet. We celebrated our 40th anniversary as well as Father's Day the same day, and it was a wonderful location.The house was great with plenty of room and the pool was a big plus. We had our 11 month old granddaughter so we did not spend a great deal of time on the beach, so the convenience of the pool was great. The walk to the beach was only 2-3 minutes. The house really did feel like a home as the owner promised, and we lacked for nothing. I look forward to returning in years to come.

5+ rating! We loved the house. It had everything we needed. The back porch with the fireplace, the pool and hot tub were great. Jennifer responded to any questions we had immediately. The kids and grandkids enjoyed touring the island in the golf cart. It was a great place to spend Christmas and New Years. We will definitely come back.

Wonderful stay!

The house was beautiful and very well equipped for all our needs! We loved the cottage feel. We had plenty of room to spread out and just relax! The owner was so helpful and checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. I messaged her about the pool net that had a hole in it and she had a new one sent over! Great service!! This house is beautiful and the beds are so comfy!! I would definitely recommend this house for your vacation! A quick walk to the beach.

Family beach trip

We had a relaxing week with lots of room to spread out in this beautiful beach home. We loved the large dining table for family dinners and game nights. The outdoor shower, pool, and patio area were the perfect place to cool down after coming off the beach. All the beds were comfortable and everyone said how well they slept each night. Jennifer was very responsive to any questions we had. We would absolutely stay here again!

Tucker Family Vacation

We had a wonderful vacation with our family at the beautiful cottage. Our Son-in-Law, who uses a wheelchair, had no problems getting around in this home. Beach was very close and pool was great for the grandkids. The only issue we had was the spiral staircase and bunk room is not suitable for small children (5 year old & two 4 year olds), but luckily there was a twin with a trundle on the first floor. Our Host was wonderful and was quick to reply to any questions we had. St. Simons Island is definitely one of our new favorite vacation destination.

Charming and Quaint Home

My family of 12 and I spent a week at High Life Cottage on St. Simon's near Gould's Inlet. We were pleasantly surprised by the uniquely decorated, charming and roomy home. It looked exactly like the pictures we had seen. The cottage had everything we needed and more...plenty of room inside and out to accommodate our large group. The addition of the pool and spa topped things off and made the outside a great place for everyone to gather. Thanks for everything, Jennifer!

Great house and location

We loved our stay at this East Beach Cottage. The house was beautifully decorated, comfortable, and well-appointed. It has everything we needed! The fenced in yard was great for our dog, and the pool and spa were wonderful. The owner was so helpful and accessible. And the location was perfect - just a walk to the beach! We were able to walk our dog on the beach each morning and evening, and it was amazing!

Perfect in every way

What a great place to stay! We loved the house and the yard. It’s the first house I’ve ever stayed in anywhere that had a drying rack for clothing. I loved that there were food storage containers. The beds were comfy and the bedding top notch. The towels were soft and absorbent- Members Mark- who knew? The kitchen was easy to navigate and the house was well set up for company while still allowing us privacy. We (and our dog) loved the yard and we all spent hours out there, us reading and our dog on squirrel alert. We never used the fireplace or the hot tub. It was unseasonably warm, and there was no reason for a fire, and I guess I was just too lazy to get in the hot tub. I did, however, intend to use it a couple of times, and it heated up quickly and the remote provided was easy to navigate. Jennifer was easy to contact and stayed in touch throughout our visit. I appreciated it. We can't wait to return.

Perfect in EVERY WAY

Truly a divine home with every amenity you could wish for … heated pool and spa, expanse welcoming living/family/dining/kitchen areas with vaulted ceilings and French doors to patio and pool, FABULOUS bathrooms with walk in showers (I have mobility issues so this was a huge bonus), fenced yard for our yellow lab who loved laying on the warm bricks, kitchen with everything needed from the smallest to the largest of meals, mattresses were the most comfortable we have ever slept on, easy to use gas fireplace in the living room was just the right touch for the cooler evenings and the location - remarkable. I am a real estate broker and always preach location, location, location - and this home has it all. Seriously right down the street from the ocean and the neighborhood is so safe and friendly. To quote Arnold… “I’ll Be Back”!!!
