Reviewer Comments:
The Cottage is in a convenient location that was pleasantly quiet even on a holiday weekend. It is, however, in need of TLC. It's ready for a coat of paint, a bit of scrubbing here and there, but most importantly for this septuagenarian, furniture and mattress that not only look good but that are comfortable. Fortunately, I had an extra beach chair that I used to sit in while I was there and spent some time with family who were staying a few blocks away. As to the last question in the survey about recommending it to a friend, there is no option for anything other than a Yes or No answer, when the answer actually is "it depends." I'm sure that young people who are seldom in the Cottage and are a bit messy themselves would find it great. It really does have everything you need (thought skimpy on toilet tissue & shampoo).

Cottage is wonderfully situated - an easy walk to the beach and close to the IGA grocery store to pick up food for the kitchen. You must drive to restaurants. Very quiet location, away from stores, hotels and noise.

Very quaint cottage, very cute inside, outside of property wasn’t really taken care of garage. Cottage was a little rundown, the only thing bad I would say about the cottage is the kitchen window needs a blind or curtain didn’t work on the remote so it was a very loud on. But the location is great very close to the beach and the inside of the cottage was decorated very cute and more updated..
5.0
This little cottage is so cute and idyllic. It's perfectly appointed with great living spaces and bedrooms for a small family. Everything is charming and has many of the quaint details of a vintage cottage but with essential updates like a cold AC, clean refrigerator, ceiling fans, working light fixtures with nice lighting, and comfortable beds. The screen porch and the outside patio are so adorable and we really enjoyed time in each of these spaces. We also loved the outdoor shower. It was not gross and it was private enough to use each day. The close proximity to the beach was great and we brought our bikes, so being located in the mid-beach area we were easily able to bike the whole island. Our only suggestion would be to have proper bedding on all of the beds. Only one of the beds included sheets and a blanket, all of them had sheets, and one didn't have a mattress pad. We will definitely come back and bring bedding along with us, which is what we suggest to anyone renting this sweet little cottage!

This property was exactly what we were looking for! A nice, quiet place to stay that is close to the beach and amenities! Would definitely stay again!!

This little cottage was the perfect mix of price and location. There are closer more expensive places, and there are further less expensive places. But this property was affordable with an easy 3-minute walk from door to sand. Public Beach access #10 is in the middle of the island and never crowded (in late July). We didn't use the pool at the Palms, but it would've been an even shorter walk. The local grocery (IGA) is just a 5 minute walk, but expect a 20+ minute walk (or short drive) north or south for restaurants and shopping. Our kids (13 and 11) each had a twin bed (didn't use the 3rd trundle), and my wife and I shared the comfy king. Shirley Road is quiet and private so the outdoor shower worked for rinsing off sand after a day at the beach, but also as a regular shower when needed.

We found the house to be charming with all the amenities we needed and even it just having 1 bathroom was not a problem for our family of 4. Our favorite part was the 3 minute walk to the beach! The beds were comfortable, the living room as well, and we appreciated the nicely stocked kitchen.

Cozy little cottage that was in perfect location for us. Quiet and secluded and great beach access. Would stay here again for sure!

Maintenance issues: back door's knob on the inside is broken and kept falling off. Dead bolt on the front door would not release the lock, so if the door closed behind you when you went to the front porch someone would have to let you back in to the main part of the house.

Perfect little escape…only wish the cottage had some board games; beach gear and cooler seeing we flew into Savanah & opted to not rent a car.

Wow, we loved this place! The cottage was the perfect spot for our family of four! I loved the beachy backdrop, and it was well-stocked with the necessary kitchen and bath items! Such an amazing time, we hope to go back! We highly recommend this spot to anyone visiting Tybee Island looking for a comfortable, cozy stay!

This is the perfect location if you want to go to tybee with just your family. The cottage is perfectly located for access to the beach and the IGA (grocery store). It is well appointed with everything you need.

We come yearly but this is the first time staying away from south end of the beach. We enjoyed the house and location. We love staying on Tybee before school lets out.

We loved our stay. It was steps from the beach and close to the grocery store and lovely experience.
5.0
I dislike being negative but just a few things that I believe can be fixed. Communication with the property people was a bit of a struggle. I had a booking issue and 1 question about our stay. Both I had to follow up with a repeat message and one I resolved on my own. 1 question I sent them another message after 19 days passed. Second, which may not seem like a big deal to some but the windows had no screens. Some didn't open. But you have to be careful about leaving a window open because there are big bugs. The weather was not hot and we really love the fresh air. Yes, the cottage is old and maybe they don't make them the same size, but Home Depot sells adjustable screens that you can pop in. One last thing is that the "cut through", to the beach, is through the neighbors yard. I gave this place 5 stars because I would definitely stay here again. I would pick up a few screens from home depot on my way. But the cottage was lovely. It was clean, the towels were soft and the bed was comfortable. The street was quiet and sitting on the porch was nice listening to the wind through the trees and the sound of the sea. I agree with other people that the location is nice. 10th street is a quiet section of the beach but you can walk down to the Pier in no time. My favorite was watching the sunrise on the beach with my coffee. The pictures are accurate, it is a very cozy place.

We had a great stay at Shirley Road. Easy access to the beach and located near the grocery store. This is a nice size place for a couple with a kid or two but if you have a larger family you would need more room.

Perfect for our family of 5! This house was cute, clean, on a quiet street and just a short walk to the beach! This was our first time to Tybee Island, and it was exactly what we were looking for and met all our expectations. One thing we personally really liked was it wasn't near the pier, which we preferred, as the beach wasn't as crowded. But it was still close enough where we could take a nice 15-20 minute stroll down the beach if we wanted to head over there.
Again, loved the house and loved Tybee Island!

Family of 5 (7 yr, 4 yr and almost 2yr) The property was very clean when we arrived. Such a cute beach cottage. Perfect location to the beach, a less than 5 minute walk. Quiet neighborhood and close to a little grocery store. When we come back to Tybee we will be looking forward to staying at this perfect little cottage.

Out family of four had a wonderful stay on Shirley Road in mid-June. The cottage had everything we needed and was clean and well-maintained. Very quiet street and peaceful front porch. Great backyard too with newer-looking landscaping, patio, outdoor shower, and path to beach (via neighbor to 10th street). The 10th street section of the beach was not very crowded and nearly empty at times in the middle of the week. We are already talking about when we can make a return visit!

Good location, close proximity to the beach a plus! Our family of five loved it (kids ages 6,11,15). The stove, fridge, microwave and gas grill were all utilized. The beach chairs and umbrella were fantastic as well. We highly recommend and will definitely stay here next time we visit.

Perfect for our family of five. The three kids (6,11,15) loved it. The proximity and ease to get to the beach were a big plus. Fully stocked with dishes and cookware. We utilized the gas grill, oven, microwave, fridge and coffee maker. The beach chairs and umbrella came in handy as well!
Quiet road and neighborhood. Located in a prime spot for walking just about anywhere we needed to get! We will definitely be staying here next time we visit.

Our family of 6 stayed here for a week at Tybee and found the property immaculate at check in and the process of checking in and leaving was very easy. The street is private which meant our stay was very quiet and relaxed. There is no beach access from the road, but you can access 10th street boardwalk through the back of the property. We stayed with our four young kids and they loved the bunk beds. The outdoor shower was amazing! My only complaint is that the kitchen could use some new pots and pans - all but two had peeling non-stick coating making them unsafe to use. We could have also used kitchen scissors and a whisk. We ate all of our meals at the house and it was just those few items that would have made meal prep a bit easier. Otherwise everything about the cottage (location, charm, cleanliness, and ease of booking) was perfect! Thank you for a great vacation!

It was a perfect place to spend a week relaxing and recharging. Loved being tucked away on the quiet street with easy access to the beach. The screened in porch was the best for enjoying morning coffee and an evening glass of wine. Had everything we needed. A cozy cottage for sure!

We had waited to book a getaway. Generally we start months in advance. When I landed on Tybee Cottages website, I found it easy to navigate and was able to locate 2 that were available. I called and Jim at Tybee Cottages and he talked with me at length so we could make the right decision for us. We decided on Shirley Road Cottage and were not disappointed. The road is very quiet, the cottage is easy to access from the main road and the beach access is probably most a 2 minute walk. We loved the uncluttered and updated cozy decor. This cottage was very very clean, which is important to us right now. It had everything we needed and the location was convenient to the grocery and to restaurants (we walked to both)There is a school nearby although it was not in session so it was even peaceful during the day-although I would enjoy hearing the children if they were having school. Thank you for a perfect accommodation and we will be back. Highly recommend.

Reviewer Comments:
Four of us stayed at 7 Shirley Road and it was delightful. Just the right amount of space and I loved all the doors so the place could be opened up in the warm air. The screened front porch was very nice. The (newly landscaped) backyard was absolutely wonderful. Such a perfect place to sit and relax. As one of us is a landscape architect and 3 of the bushes seemed to be dying we watered all the new plantings as we had no rain the entire 7 days we were here. Washer and dryer are dated but work well. We ate out most of the stay so rarely used the kitchen to cook but essentials were all there. The cottage is on a very quiet road and perfectly centered to get to any place on the island. Beach access is close and takes one out to the beach in the middle of the island which is less crowded. We did have a plumbing issue which Jim took care of within 1 day. I do suggest that that a small bedside table be placed in the main bedroom and bunk room as there is no place to place anything except on the floor (we used the stools). All in all I highly recommend this cottage. We had a wonderful time! Thank you Jim and Debbie.
