About this property

Ginger's Guesthouse: 4 BR, 3.5 BA House in Jekyll Island, Sleeps 9

Enjoy a relaxing coastal escape in this beautiful and spacious 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath cottage, ideally located just a short walk from the beach. Designed for comfort and convenience, this inviting home features a large family room and an impressive outdoor living area complete with a screened-in pool and spa—perfect for unwinding after a day in the sun.

A standout feature of this home is the thoughtful “Ginger’s Essentials” welcome supply, which includes paper towels, napkins, toilet paper, laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, bath soap, garbage bags, and coffee filters—helping make your stay as comfortable and stress-free as possible. You may even find extra space to bring along those additional golf clubs.

Step outside and enjoy the private backyard oasis, where the screened pool and spa create a resort-style experience just steps from your door. The pool can also be heated upon request for an additional fee, offering year-round enjoyment.

For added peace of mind, the home is equipped with two exterior security cameras—one facing the driveway and one facing the backyard/pool area. There are no cameras inside the home or within the screened pool enclosure.

Guests will also appreciate provided linens and a starter supply of essentials including paper towels, toilet paper, dish soap, and dishwasher detergent to make arrival easy and convenient.

Please note, this is a pet-free property.

Ginger’s Guesthouse

This property was very spacious and had everything we needed to have a wonderful family vacation. We also enjoyed having our own private pool. Ginger‘s Guesthouse was conveniently located near all of the restaurants and attractions in Jekyll.

Excellent Jekyll Cottage

We had a wonderful stay here, and will definitely come back to stay at Ginger’s Guesthouse again! The home was very spacious and the pool was bigger than expected and perfect for my two boys! The home had everything we needed plus more! The home is a very short walk to the beach (easy to do with kids). The staff and owners were very attentive and helpful throughout the stay.

Amazingly relaxing!

My husband and I had a very relaxing break from the world this week. I especially enjoyed the swing in the front yard. Ocean breezes and serenaded each night by the cicadas! Thank you, Ginger for letting us be a part of this oasis!

Perfect Place to Stay

My coworkers and I stayed during our conference on Jekyll Island. We loved the house, and the roominess was fantastic. We really enjoyed the hot tub. Our only suggestion would be providing hand soap for the bathrooms. But everything was clean, very well kept, and easy to find. We would gladly stay there again!

Labor Day last minute get away

Clean and wonderfully pool. Very personal home for a family that has obviously enjoyed their time on Jekyl. The "about the house" was a list of "5 outdoor cameras but NO indoor cameras", combined with a lot of family photos a little off putting and looking for indoor cameras.

Such a comfortable, welcoming home, and we really enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Plenty of room for our family of 8, The owner has been very intentional in making the home “renter friendly”—books to borrow, beach towels and chairs to use, and light switches and kitchen drawers are labeled, making it really easy to locate things. We will definitely return! FYI, Beach erosion does prevent access except during the height of low tide, so we did drive to Great Dunes Park to set up our tent and chairs for the day.

Love this property will stay again.

Spa never warmed up , even after calling Kauffman to have someone come out to check it. There were dirty towels in the towel bin and no bath mat in the back bedroom where there was carpet in the shower area. Daughter has said there was mold in the kitchen ice maker. Love the area, and layout of this home. Didn’t like having the clean ourselves when we pay Parker Kauffman a cleaning fee. I pay a cleaning fee to not clean before I leave, meaning having to sweep and vacuum. Seriously though, love the layout of this house.
