House delightfully furnished and well-stocked.Pool clean, chairs and umbrellas available.Beach views from upstairs deck very nice.Beach access very limited, disappointing.Other beaches on island were lovely and accessible.
This house was great! In probably the best condition of any house I've ever rented. Close to driftwood beach which we got out to after it stopped raining. Spent a lot of time in this newer house due to the rainy weekend, and it was very warm and comfortable.
Couldn't be happier with the accommodations at the Cottages. Very nice updated interior, multiple beach access and the pool were awesome. Love coming to Jekyll and don't think we could stay anywhere else.

My wife and I spent a wonderful week with our daughter and three grandchildren - and the rental unit we stayed at was a big part of our enjoyment. It was ideal in terms of amenities, appliances and furnishings.

Relaxing! Great location! Well equipped!
This home had all the comforts of home and more! Loved the bikes, bedrooms, baths, screened porches! Jekyll Island is a laid back location to get away. Community pool and location on island were great.

The house is very nice, plenty of towels and everything we needed. The beach was a close walk but was little disappointing due to lack of actual beach, especially during high tide. Overall we enjoyed the quiet of jekyll Island.

Our family enjoyed the home immensely! It was very roomy, clean, and the kitchen was well stocked. We stayed in Garden Cottage 8 , which has a view of ocean from upper screened deck, and it is just a few steps from the beach . We would definitely stay at this property again!

Luxury Townhouse just steps from the beach.
We loved this high quality townhouse thats close to the beach and a great pool. Jekyll Island is well suited to biking so the cruiser bikes that come with the place are a great feature. We also liked how the area is not as crowded as other destinations like OBX.

We had a great stay at The Cottages on Jekyll Island. The home was perfectly located across from the beach access with a view of the ocean. Very comfortable, well appointed kitchen and we loved sitting in the screened in porch. Super fast wifi throughout the house. The community pool was quiet and had plenty of chairs/umbrellas. Thanks for a fantastic trip!

Reviewer Comments:
This was our second visit in this unit and our 6-7th stay at The Cottages. This unit is very comfortable for our needs. The only recommendation is that it desperately needs a new grill. We will be returning again next summer. Thank you for being part of our family memories.
