Newly remodeled, very clean and everything worked as advertised. Very quiet in Shellman Bluff but close to Sapelo Hammock where we played golf.

Thanksgiving Extra Space

Our whole family enjoyed this very cool cottage so much! It was so spacious and clean and suited our needs perfectly. Its proximity to the dock and Hunters Cafe were perfect. This is by far the most thought out and thoroughly stocked VRBO I’ve ever stayed in. Would highly recommend to everyone.

100 % Awesome!!

Me a 3 others in town to play golf at Sapelo Hammock Golf Club. This house was clean and neat as a pin. Everything we needed was at the location. many extras and we were well pleased. How about small flashlights in every room. This house was great and we will return in about 6 months! Hats off to the owners!!!

Very inviting. Easy in easy. Easy out. Perfect. High end everything. Great beds. Everything you need is in this house. The small touches amazing like small flashlights in several locations. Every light switching was labeled amazing. We are senior travelers inside this house large hallway. No tight corners to get around. Roomy. I wish I could give you 10 stars. One of the nicest places we have stayed.

Quiet on the bluff

Great place to stay at Shellman's Bluff! Quaint, clean, and comfortable. Decor is beautiful. Master is very comfortable. Queen in 2nd and double bunks in 3rd are a great option. Plenty of room to spread out. Laundry with detergent etc. Kitchen and bathroom stocked with everything you might need. Keurig + carafe coffee maker. I can't think of anything you might want. Just bring food. It's home away from home only better! Fish camp a few doors down with boat launch if that's your thing. Great little restaurant within walking distance. Very quiet community. There is a band shell 'the slab' that hosts events and music. You will hear it but ends by 11?? Golf carts galore! Neighbor next door dogs bark when they are outside, but not an issue at night. If you like a comfortable clean home, in a quiet area under the mossy oaks, then this is it. Oh, if you plan on cooking meals, get groceries before you get here. The Dollar General has everything -I mean everything! But if you lack a specific ingredient, you will have to go into town (10miles??) for a true grocery store. I highly recommend staying here, but just hope it will be available the next time we visit the bluff!
