About this house rental
Three Friends Cottage is one of St. Simons' most spectacular vacation homes, located second position from the ocean in St. Simons finest vacation home neighborhood, Coast Cottages. It is just steps from two community pools and 100 yards from East Beach - one of the widest beaches on the east coast and the best on the island. Three Friends has 4 bedrooms and 4 full baths. The bottom level has 3 bedrooms, two with a queen bed and one with two twins, along with another sleeper sofa in the den. Updated furnishings pamper you in every room, from the separate den (a great place for the kids to watch movies) to the ultra-spacious living/dining/kitchen level. There are multiple dining and sitting areas in the home, allowing plenty of space to relax, spread out, or gather together.
The master suite is a retreat with ocean views from multiple vantage points and a spa-like master bathroom. The master bath has 2 water closets and an amazing walk-through shower with ocean views. It also boasts separate seating areas in the room and on the private terrace. You'll love the high ceilings, elegant fixtures, dark mahogany floors, limestone coral tile, plantation shutters, and newly mounted TVs throughout. The gourmet kitchen is open to the living and dining areas so everyone can gather in one space. The gourmet kitchen has been updated with granite counter tops, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, double oven, and gas range.
Three Friends has 4 baths and a colorful private outdoor shower to rinse off after a day at the beach. Your friends and family will enjoy spending time on the deck while taking in the beautiful beach views. It is the perfect year-round friends and family beach retreat… your home away from home!
Three Friends' guests enjoy full privileges at the Coast Cottages' 2 fabulous beach front pools and pavilion with private beach access. The Coast Cottage neighborhood on St. Simons Island provides a quaint, charming, vacation atmosphere with colorful beach cottages. There is space for 3 vehicles in front of the cottage.
St. Simons Island is truly a special place. The island has great restaurants, miles of sidewalks which makes it a great island to ride bikes, world class golf, tennis, fishing, kayaking and of course relaxing on the beach. It is a great place to get away from it all and create some wonderful memories. You'll want to return to Three Friends Cottage year after year!
The pool is heated at no additional charge for certain holiday weeks such as spring break, Thanksgiving, Christmas to New Years. There is a $50 charge per day to heat the pool for additional days during cooler months.

The cottage was exactly as presented online. The location was perfect. When we return to St. Simon Island, we'll definitely book this place again, if available.

House was amazing! Provided everything we needed. Check in and out directions were clear and easy. Beach and pool were less than 5 minute walk. Shopping and variety of local restaurants were perfect. Cant wait to return!! Thank you for a relaxing trip

Warm ocean breezes, an amazing private beach with life guards, all the items needed for a fantastic week. The house is well appointed for families with living areas on all levels. The upstairs shower was awesome!! We went out to eat a lot this trip and we found lots of great spots for fresh seafood. The bowls at Fiddler’s were fan favorites!

We stayed for a week at the Three Friends Cottage with 10 family members and had a wonderful time. We made extensive use of the wide beach within easy walking distance and the swimming pool at the end of the street. The house has lots of interesting architectural features and an extravagant primary bath. We had a couple of appliance problems, but they were addressed very promptly by the property manager. The living space is spread over three floors and elevated one floor above the ground, so we got plenty of exercise on the stairs.

Location was amazing, nice beach and pool area. Master suite is beautiful. Decorated nicely but nit over the top.
Loved our stay here! Perfect for out group of 8.

We loved the house and Coast Cottage neighborhood! The elevator was great for my older parents. The house is spacious and absolutely beautiful. We really enjoyed being so close to the pool and beach. The house has everything you need including beach towels, beach chairs, beach toys and a wagon. The deck was wonderful for coffee in the mornings and just hanging out during the day or night. We hated to leave but hope to stay at 5 Coast Cottage again next year!

Our first trip to St. Simons and this house exceeded our expectations! We take several beach trips a year and this house was by far the best! Super clean, well stocked, close proximity to pool and beach. Easy check in and property manager answered any questions quickly. Highly recommend!

We arrived Friday for a late Friendsgiving weekend. The house was cozy, warm and welcoming. Kitchen was sufficiently stocked with all of our cooking needs for a feast. Perfect location, quick drive to downtown and grocery. Comfy beds. We would have preferred the downstairs living space to have a regular bed instead of the pull out sofa because that would have been more comfortable and the living room on main floor hosted all of our entertainment needs for our group. This was a perfect place for our group of 9 to enjoy quality time together.

House was perfect for our needs... The secondary bedrooms were a little tight for sharing but close friends it worked out. Disappointed is was not direct oceanfront as we thought but a birds eye view from a couple rooms. Close proximity to beach walkover was literally out the front door by a few feet.

We were very excited to stay at 3 Friends Cottage. There was 6 of us in total (2 elderly adults, 2 adults, 2 children). The check in process was very easy and communication about the details of the property were good. We had been notified that the property was having issues with one of the ovens, which was fine as there was two.
Once we got there we realized the second oven didn't really work either, which limited cooking options. Luckily, they had a grill outside and we used that for a few meals. The refrigerator also started alarming the second day we were there and beeped every so often. It was a bit annoying (especially at night) and they did provide us with gift certificates to Southern Soul BBQ to make up for the inconvenience. To be fair, when we contacted the property management about the issues, they stated the owners were in the process of updating the appliances.
All in all the property is nice and the kitchen had everything else you would need to stay for the week (dishes, cook ware, etc). The house seemed to be clean except for the dishwasher and under the beds that looked like they had not been cleaned in a very long time.
We had two big disappointments about the propertyand our reservation. First was that the master bed was super firm and what we called "Rock hard". After two nights of not sleeping we found an extra twin mattress pad on the first floor and put it on one side of the king bed and then used all the extra pillows as a pad on the otherside. The other beds were not as bad, but not the best either. The biggest disappointment was that it is listed as having a water/beach view which is technically accurate but in my opinion should not be listed as such. To see the beach and water you have to stand at the very corner of the deck and lean forward to see the beach or you must be in the master shower and open the shades to see it. Either way, not what we expected for a water view home.
The home all in all met many of our needs such as outdoor space to relax, having an outdoor shower, and having an elevator for the elderly adults which was a nice option (even though we really didn't use it). It is a nice house and has a lot to offer, but in my opinion it is not listed accurately and with the current condition of things is very overpriced. We had a very nice vacation, but will not be staying there again.

This is a beautiful home in a beach setting. It fully equipped with everything you need for a fun-filled vacation, including fully stocked kitchen, beach chairs/toys/towels, etc. The three levels provide areas to escape for quiet moments or gather as a group to play games and eat. We hated to leave and look forward to going back in the future.

Girls trip October 2021
Four sisters and our mom spent a few days at Three Friends Cottage. The beach and pool access was excellent. We especially appreciated having beach towels, chairs, umbrella and cart available for our use. The house was beautiful and very well equipped. Bedrooms and bathrooms were just as nice as the photos showed. The kitchen and living area were spacious and inviting. We had planned to watch movies but we had so much fun we ran out of time. Really nothing to critique.

Absolutely enjoyed this property and the neighborhood. The elevator came in handy. We appreciated the amount of beach towels and beach chairs that were available for us to use. Great location- spent a lot of time traveling to the village in our golf cart for shopping and dining.
One thing to note (but doesn’t change our rating!!) is the large and lovely deck isn’t covered so it is difficult to sit outside on a hot sunny day.
We would stay at this property again and fell in love with the island!
