We rented this house for a girls weekend and had a blast! The house was the perfect place! Owner was available and helpful. We had Miss Barbara cook one of our dinners and it was delicious! Can’t wait to return!
Great island. We had a great time exploring the island. The house had all we needed. The owner was great and his caretakers, Chris and Barbara were great, they cooked and delivered meals and made sure we were taken care of. The island is beautiful and we loved checking out all the area.
This house was very clean and had everything you could possible need. Very comfortable. Plenty of room. Barbara cooked a couple of meals for us and the food was excellent! Barbara and Chris, the caretakers, are very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back!
Nice house, clean and very comfortable. Owner and property manager were both very accessible and helpful. Everyone went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. We left some items and the owner mailed them to us free of charge! Thank you R., B., and C. for an awesome weekend. Can’t wait to come back.
This was our fifth trip to the island, and the first in this home. The home was very much as described. Though maybe more dated than some of the newer homes, it was nice, comfortable, and well-appointed. It was a hot few days, but the AC and fans more than made up for any discomfort experienced outdoors.
Though the property description mentions that a "car is not required" -- some form of transportation very much is, as this is one of the more remote homes. We made plans to have two golf carts available during our stay, and even verified that request the week prior. We have a party of four, and a single vehicle does not allow us to be in different places at the same time. Upon arrival, we found out that neither golf cart was available. Though a jeep was provided for transportation, it was not what we had expected, or wanted.
There is also a single store on the island. We didn't find out until we arrived that it wasn't open during our multi-day stay.
I get that things happen, but I very much feel there's an opportunity for stronger communication when it comes to the add-ons that you will need to make your stay on this amazing island even better.
Holy (wild) cow! Where do I begin?! Our group of three retired couples enjoyed our first time on this beautiful island, and we luckily picked THE BEST home and caretakers for our stay! This home met all our needs and more! An added plus to this rental were the knowledgeable and friendly caretakers, Chris and Barbara, who provided us with a truck to drive around, a private tour of the island, and YUMMY meals! We are already talking about returning to this secret paradise! Thank you for the lovely, relaxing getaway!
The property was great clean.all that was needed. Post Covid had a different atmosphere. I have visited overnight 4 other times. This time people on the island seemed less friendly. I bring each time people who never have had a vacation before. Alll enjoyed. I miss the van or car that comes with the rental. Price was high for old vans and trucks. Not sure if I will return. It is a beautiful island. You can hear God wispering in the breeze
The island was a beautiful quiet getaway. The house was nice and quite perfect for our family. The food that Ms. Barbara cooked was amazing. Looking forward to going back again.
This was a great getaway and I’m really glad we found it. Doesn’t take too long to find your way around. Had a lot of fun on the beach and playing in the waves. Folks are friendly. We had Chris and Barbara cater our meals and you talk about some good eating. I’d ride the ferry to the island just to eat their food! Wish we could’ve stayed longer. Really special place.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful experience with others. The owners were quick to respond and answered my thousand questions leading up to our stay. It was a spur of the moment trip and we had never been. The house was everything as listed, for the exception of the 5 minute walk to the beach. It is a 5 minute drive. Access to the truck is a plus. You definitely need it to get around. Barbara and Chris were a blessing. He had a vehicle awaiting our arrival. She will cook for you (delicious) and they were available for any questions or concerns that we had. We did not stay long enough to get a tour from Chris, but we’re told by others staying on the island to make sure to get it in on the next trip. If you are looking for an adventure with the kids or a moment to stop and take in the beauty of it all and do nothing, this is definitely a trip to take. Thank you for sharing.
This is not your typical beach vacation. However, we absolutely fell in love with Sapelo Island and plan to come back!
The house we stayed at was perfect! Pictures are very accurate! We had 2 adults and 4 teenagers and we had plenty of room in the house! There was an outside shower to rinse off from our time at the beach and it had hot water which I personally appreciated! Beach chairs were provided for us to use as well. No complaints at all about the house! The owners were extremely communicative and available for any questions or concerns. The caretakers were great as well. We ordered dinners every night from Ms. Barbara and they were delicious!
Just a few thoughts about the island for anyone considering vacationing here:
- It is secluded. It was so relaxing because we did not have to deal with traffic, crowds, etc.
- Make sure to get a tour of the mansion scheduled prior to arriving through the caretakers. We did not take care of this prior to arriving, so we didn't get an opportunity to do so. Definitely something we will do next time.
- There are no restaurants and only a small general store that offers necessities. As long as you are prepared for this, you will be fine!
- The ferry to get to the island costs $5 round trip. You will need cash and it is best to have exact change on hand.
- Bring a lot of bug spray!
This is all I can think of right now, but I will add more to it if I think of more. Like I said, it was a great place to stay and we absolutely fell in love with the island!
Very well kept house, enough bedrooms for children, adults, and grandparents. Had all the needed equipment, beach chairs and bikes. Care taker was great and food was good. Access to the beach with a truck was great. Highly recommend
It's a great house, with a well-equipped kitchen, clean bathrooms, and comfortable bedrooms. Photos and descriptions are accurate. I agree with all the previous reviews of the house. Bob, the owner, is a great communicator. Barbara and Chris are extremely helpful and gracious. Barbara catered delicious dinners for us each night and reminded us she was available 24/7. Chris met us at the ferry dock with our rented truck and later gave us a tour of the island. We had a blast exploring Sapelo's pristine beaches, maritime forests, and historical sites.
We have been working so hard since pandemic started (frontline workers) and needed a much-needed break in a secluded and safe place, the beach was awesome and many times we were the only group there. Dinners from Barbara were delicious, we will be back.
Everything was absolutely amazing. Sapelo Island is a lost treasure and I’m grateful that Mr. and Mrs. Thompson give others the opportunity to see this gift.

Just perfect
We stayed here with my cousin's family for four nights - four adults and three little kids. It was everything we could have asked for. The house is big, clean, has everything you might need, and is effectively air conditioned (important!). Barbara and Chris took wonderful care of us and were always immediately available anytime we needed anything at all. Chris took us for a tour of the north end of the island, which you're not allowed to explore unless you're authorized by the Georgia DNR, and their cooking is terrific, too - we got two meals from them which were both delicious! (We brought most of our own food and cooking was easy in the spacious, well-equipped kitchen.) Chris and Barbara's kindness was a huge part of what made our trip enjoyable. The owner of the property, Bob, is responsive and easy to deal with, and he'll rent you a truck to get around while you're there, which I recommend unless you travel very light and prefer to rent bikes instead. Sapelo is one of our favorite places on earth and we can't wait to go back - thanks, Chris, Barbara, and Bob, for making this trip easy and fun!
