About this cottage rental

The Summer House on the Island of Tybee is located in a quiet friendly neighborhood, within walking distance to almost everything on the island. The house is a circa 1925 home that has been lovingly restored to keep up with the times, but retains 'The Summer House' charm. The caretaker lives on the property in the lower level. There are three porches, a porch swing, an outdoor shower, a small yard and gardens to enjoy.
Bicycles and pedestrians walk on the street, the market is a few doors away, the beach which is 1 1/2 blocks away is the most favored on the island. There are cabs to take you most anywhere else on the island.
The house is bright and airy. It has 2 bedrooms. No. 1 has a queen bed. No. 2 has two bunk beds all twin sized and sleeps 4.
There is one bath that has a tub/shower, there is an outdoor shower under the back stairs. The kitchen is fully equipped with all the conveniences of your own home, there is even a drawer full of spices for your use.
Amenities include, TV, internet, an assortment of toys and games for beach and home. The home is centrally cooled with ceiling fans in each room, with the exception of the bunk room which has a portable fan.
The is a wagon to take to the beach and a wheeled cart as well. There are toys for the beach, chairs, and an umbrella, for your enjoyment.
I live in the house as well, in the first level. We share the driveway, laundry room and back patio. I am excited to have visitors and if I don't hear you - I don't think you are having fun!

My daughter, sister, and I enjoyed staying in this sweet cottage! The home is great for a small, young family. It’s a quick walk to the beach and Ms. Caren has plenty of beach supplies for use (wagon, chairs, toys!) which makes packing simple. Overall, it was a pleasant stay!

We loved staying at this sweet little cottage, it was clean well stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. It was great to be able to walk one block to the beach and having the grocery store so close another plus. Caren was very helpful and lovely to meet.

We had an absolutely fantastic time! There is nothing bad to say about our stay at all! The location is perfect, the neighborhood is perfect, and the privacy is perfect. For anyone who is not considering staying here because the host lives nearby, do NOT LET THAT STOP YOU from enjoying this property! I have four small kids, extremely loud and rambunctious, the kind you have to apologize to your neighbors about. Not once did they seem to even phase Mrs. Caren at all! Affordability, proximity to the store and the beach, and the fact that the 11th street beach access is the least populated access in the area make this property a hidden Gem. If its available, BOOK IT! We will be coming back next year for sure!

The apartment was warm upon arrival. I assumed because owner kept a/c at a higher temp when not occupied so I turned down thermostat to cool place. It never cooled off, we slept in heat. This is during 93 degree days. The next day we went to beach and came back to hot house, had to leave to find a/c elsewhere. I texted Caren at 6:30pm concerned the a/c was not working. She didn’t return my message until 10:30pm and said she was leaving a fan by the door. Then texted that she would reimburse my stay if I found the heat to be unbearable and needed to relocate. I managed to find a place to move my family (including my 6 month old) to near by…packed up and moved at 11pm-midnight! Caren said that repair person would come by at 10-11am next day (92 degrees by 10am, mind you) So, I went to the property and he never showed during that time. (Caren later claims he came and went to buy parts)The a/c was not working, so I had to make decision to fully move out of rental, as it was not a safe environment for us, especially a baby. The heat made it unbearable and it wouldn’t be repaired until afternoon. The most aggravation part of all of this is that Caren lives downstairs, so SHE KNEW THE A/C WAS NOT WORKING. I reached out to Caren asking that she reimburse my stay, as she had offered, because we had to leave the property and rent a place elsewhere for two of the three nights of vacation. She refused and only reimbursed one night (not even in full, considering other fees)

We'd gladly choose Caren's place again, even though (as some reviews have mentioned) it's across the street from the IGA and experiences delivery noise in the morning. That was no bother to us at all. This one checks all the boxes! Comfortable, convenient, clean, beautifully decorated, amenities like outdoor shower and beach toys, appointed well for home cooking. On top of that, we experienced great communication with the host (who was very patient with us as we couldn't make up our mind whether to come or not with a hurricane forecasted to pass through). We're so glad we did! Oh, and the master bed had the most comfortable mattress, highest quality covers, and plushest pillow of any rental we've stayed in. Perfect for a beach getaway.

The house was located close to the beach and half a block from the grocery store. So cute and lots of room. Neighborhood was safe and family friendly, we were able to let the kids bike up and down the street without worry. I loved the huge screened-in front porch, which made morning coffee so enjoyable. The host was very responsive and friendly. The only upgrade needed was the main shower, but all else was PREFECT! We will stay again, hopefully soon. :)
