YOUR ST. SIMONS VACATION HOME Welcome to Blue Heron Cottage, a St. Simons vacation rental built for families, foodies, and barefoot mornings by the pool. Located on a quiet street just minutes from the islandâs best eats, this newly built beach home has a private heated pool, two king suites, a custom bunk room, and walkability thatâs hard to beat.
Youâre less than half a mile from Southern Soul BBQ (featured on Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives) and Dulce Dough Doughnutsâthe best doughnuts in the Golden Isles, full stop. Get there earlyâthey sell out fast. They also do great coffee and mimosas, so whether you're jump-starting the day or just trying to survive breakfast with teenagers, you're in luck. Youâre also a few minutesâ walk from Redfern Village, where youâll find casual eats like Gnatâs Landing, oysters at Wolf Island, and a wine-loverâs gift shop you didnât know you needed (Wine Body & Soulâyes, thatâs really the name).
Inside this beach home, youâll find coastal finishes that whisper, not shout. Thereâs a chefâs kitchen, Smart TVs in all four bedrooms, and plenty of space to gatherâor escape the group chat entirely. Outside, itâs all about poolside naps, screen porch hangs, and forgetting your car exists. The home has a 240V NEMA 14â50 outlet for Level 2 EV charging.

We have been to St. Simons many times and this has been the best house. The house was very clean, and it was great having two bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms so my elderly mother could stay downstairs and we could have privacy in a bedroom upstairs. The kitchen was well stocked, so we could prepare breakfast in the mornings. The neighbors were also great! The only minor issues were the pool and airport noise. This is the closest we have stayed to the airport, so we didn't know it was that busy! However, it wasn't noisy to the point where we couldn't sleep or were awakened at night. The pool's heater was on, and unfortunately, it wasn't fixed until the last full day of our stay. Despite those minor issues, we will definitely be staying there again!
Photos donât even do it justice! The house was so perfect for my bachelorette trip! Everyone had tons of room, no stress! The planes were super noisy, but if you can ignore it like we did, then it was great! Response from the realty team was so great. I would 100% recommend and come back!
Blue Heron Cottage: Coastal Getaway on St. Simons Island
we truly enjoyed our stay, everything was so clean/beautiful, accommodated all our needs. loved the neighborhood, lots of things in walking distance. truly enjoyed the clean pool, my grandbabies also. we needed this, been threw a lot these past months. We will do this one again. Thank You Blue Heron Cottage
Such a good location!! Just a few miles from the beach, but center of the island so close to all restaurants. The cutest private back yard with a great pool. Well stocked and decorated so cute.
We enjoyed our time at this lovely home! Clean, beautiful, and everything was as pictured although the pool felt a bit smaller than in the images. Our only complaint was that they don't provide much as far as necessities to get you started. Bring trash bags, dish sponge and towel, and detergent! You'll have a great time!
The house is gorgeous, upscale, clean, and stocked with shampoo/conditioner, hand soap, beach towels, books/games/puzzles and a very small supply of toilet paper, paper towels and clothes/dishwashing pods.
Pool is on the small side but the heater works very well, which is great since it's not that warm there in March.
Within walking distance of a grocery store and unique restaurants/shopping. Drive to the pier/beach.
The biggest room for improvement is the communication with the property management company. They're quick to respond and friendly, but they don't know much about the property and since there's no sheet/book that explains anything about the house/area we were in the dark on the TVs (not straightforward and didn't all have YT TV), pool, appliances, trash, rules, etc.
On day 3 when we told them the pool cleaning robot was full of leaves, they said it was our job to empty the unit/skim the pool daily. Happy to do that but we should have been informed and given instructions when we arrived.
Also, prior to arrival when we asked we were told the house didn't have things like beach towels, games/cards, soap so we packed, checked and paid for an extra suitcase filled with these things. But when we arrived, the house fully stocked with everything we lugged here and more. Hassle and waste of money.
All in all, the house is outstanding and the area is walkable and fun, but as a frequent renter of vacation houses, we're just used to better customer service.
