Excellent location!

It's a cute and comfortable cottage. The main things that I would change is adding a hinged door that locks to the front bedroom and opaque blinds or curtains for privacy. Pegi was quick to respond to the question we had.

Just a quick walk to beautiful and quiet Inlet beach. We saw lot of people paddle boarding and kayaking near the inlet as well as fishing. Walkable to food and beach shops. Also close to ocean beach if you want a livelier vibe. Great location and cute comfy bungalow.

Authentic Vintage Cottage Feel

Short walk to the south beach where we spent most of our beach time. We found this beach to be more relaxing and open. Garden hose at entrance to rinse off sand was very handy. Easy parking for 2 maybe 3 vehicles.

Perfect home away from home!

The listing for this house doesn't do it justice. From the amazing beach, quirky decor to the homey details you'll never want to leave! A short walk to the beach, pier, and places to hang out. We loved the outdoor shower & screened porch. Quiet neighborhood- a true perfect vacation home!!!

About the host

Hosted by Pegi Vaughn

Host profile image
I bought Greene Cottage to fulfill a dream of renovating and restoring a historical Tybee cottage. I poured my heart and soul into this project. It is named Greene Cottage to honor my parents and the memories of wonderful times with them at the beach. It thrills me to share all God has blessed me with as long as my guest respect the little cottage. It is NOT a typical rental.

Why they chose this property

Location Location Location!!!! parking is a problem on Tybee. You can walk or ride your bike every where on the island from Greene Cottage. The cottage is VERY comfortable and delivers all the R&R you are looking for.

What makes this property unique

Step back into a simpler place and time of pure coastal romantic living. Greene Cottage has all you need and is a short walk to the town center, beach, back river and restaurants.
