Perfect location to relax on the beach and enjoy the quieter life of St. Simons with our senior dog. Appreciate the cleanliness and good communication of host. While there’s only a starter set of household supplies, it was easily enough for the stay. Included beach chairs and a TON of beach towels which was helpful!

Tthe property was bright and inviting. The location was also very convenient as it was between good restaurants and the pier. It was very close to the beach, and the drive to jekyll was amazing. However, there was mold in the washer. I understand it is a very moist environment, but it may have been skipped over during the reset. Other than that, it was a very pleasing visit, and we cannot wait for the next time we return.

Great Central Location for Family and Pups

Everything about our stay was amazing. The property was very clean and well maintained. We felt really comfortable and safe through out the stay and our pup did too. We were only 80 yds away from beach access and the morning sunrises were epic. The property had all we needed and more for the beach. The best part about the location is how central it is to all that St. Simon’s has to offer. It was our first family vacation bringing our dog and overall we had an amazing trip. We will be back again and hope to book this same location in the future.

St Simons sisters trip

Wonderful condo! Extremely clean, great location and walkable to restaurants. Fully stocked kitchen, though we didn’t cook much. Large garage for vehicle and nice outdoor area in back. We loved sitting on porches (2 upstairs/ downstairs). People are very friendly and nice. Quiet location as well. We will definitely use this rental again. Another bonus, was the service to provide umbrellas, lounge chairs , cart and cooler for beach!!

House was great and so was St. Simon’s! House was clean, easy check-in and check-out, stocked with linens, towels, and beach gear. House is just 100 steps to the beach, which was a real treat! Also very walkable to downtown or the local brewery! We especially enjoyed sitting on the deck (there are two) and soaking in the afternoon sunshine. We will be back!

Perfect location

The location is perfect, literally steps to the beach & a short walk to nearby restaurants. We had our dogs with us & they settled really well, the front balcony was probably their & our favourite spot! Ideal spot for a morning coffee & perfect for a glass of wine later. The host was very responsive to any questions I had & were very clear with check-in & checkout information. The house is well stocked with everything you need to enjoy your stay. Felt very comfortable in the house & I’m sure we’ll be back to enjoy another wonderful trip!

This property included everything one could ask for… location was SO convenient to the beach, for waking, as well as near restaurants. The house was perfectly clean and comfortable! Already missing enjoying morning coffee on the front patio. And the communication from the owners could not have been better (the App was such a plus!) Will most definitely be staying here again.

Place was great. The only issues were in the downstairs bathroom. The shower did not drain so each shower included a small bath. Also, the shampoo and soap in the shower did not work - nothing would come out of each bottle.

A Perfect St Simon's getaway

Stone's Throw Cottage was everything one could want for a beach getaway. It was immaculately clean and well appointed (right down to the Stone's Throw Cottage-branded cocktail napkins!) and ... it's a less than 2 minute walk to the beach. Location, location, location, as they say! And the property management was exceptional; our first day there we had a problem with the AC, and in less than an hour after we called they had an AC repair service there to fix the problem. Would definitely rent here again, or would rent any other property Lilmar Properties owns/manages. Overall, five stars!
