About this property

Carol's Retreat Saint Simons Island ~ Coastal 4BR Retreat Sleeps 10

Welcome to Carol's Retreat — your classy-meets-comfort coastal retreat in the heart of St. Simons Island, GA.

This spacious 4,000 sq. ft. 4 BR / 4.5 BA home sleeps 10 and perfectly balances elegance and ease — ideal for families, small groups, or golf weekends.

Spend your mornings sipping coffee under the oaks, then head to the beach (everything you need is ready — buggy, tent, cooler, and chairs). Afternoons are for friendly games of pool, reading by the upstairs chaise, or BBQs in the private backyard. Evenings? Firepit lit, cornhole out, laughter flowing.

Inside, you’ll find two ensuite bedrooms, plush bedding, blackout window dressings, and thoughtful touches in every room — from irons and steamers to cozy blankets for porch nights. The British-themed bunk room is a guest favorite, while the primary suite’s spa bath offers a serene retreat after a sun-soaked day.

The kitchen is fully stocked with small appliances, bakeware, and serving pieces (even turkey pans for holiday stays). Dine at the elegant table for 8 or pull up a barstool for breakfast before heading to nearby golf courses — Sea Palms (3 min) or King & Prince (10 min).

This mid-island gem sits on a peaceful street within walking distance of Harrington Park and Bennie’s Red Barn (15-minute walk or 2-minute drive). Local favorites include La Plancha (fish tacos – 5 min), Sal’s Pizza (Italian – 8 min), and Village Creek Landing (3 min) where Southeast Adventure Outfitters offers kayaking, boating, and fishing — or launch your own kayak. Nearby fun includes Frederica Stables (4 min, horseback riding) and The Farm at Oatland North (7 min, animal sanctuary).

Seasonally, enjoy local arts and crafts shows in the village — often year-round and especially lively in summer.

Whether you’re here to unwind, reconnect, or explore, Carol's Retreat welcomes you like a dear friend — classy, coastal, and full of heart.

*Guests have full access to the entire home, including all living spaces, bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, dining, and outdoor areas. The only areas not available for guest use are the four clearly marked Owner’s Closets — one located in the primary bedroom, two attic-style storage areas behind the upstairs walk-in closets, and one in the laundry room used for cleaning and maintenance supplies.

Everything else in the home is yours to enjoy — make yourself comfortable and settle in like a local!*

**Carol's Retreat SSI is hosted in partnership with Susan Muscari Komoto of Golden Isles Getaways for a true concierge-style experience. We’ve got you covered—whether that’s stocking the fridge, setting you up with beach gear, or arranging extras like a private chef, boating, fishing, paddle-boarding, horseback riding, or spa days (all for an additional fee). Just let us know what would make your stay extra special!**

Host profile image
We welcome you to Carol's Retreat! This house was lovingly updated and decorated with the mindset of relaxation, gathering, and fun. My husband Chris and I live in Minneapolis and bought this beautiful home in 2025 as a vacation retreat where we better manage through Minneapolis winters (brrr) and can come to St. Simons to play golf, eat at amazing restaurants, and enjoy the St Simons art scene. Chris is a professor (originally from the UK) and I am a part time consultant, and we have one adult kid (whom we're so proud of). We love to travel - especially to St Simons! We're excited how Carol's Retreat has come together and we can't wait to share it with you!
