We booked Happy Tabby cottage for a New Year's getaway. Pros: The porch and yard are great. Very spacious. If you're bringing dogs, the fence the closed in perfectly so they're totally safe in the yard. The neighborhood is quiet and just like all of our other stays with Lilmar, they are great to rent from. Cons: The furniture in the house is rather large for the space they have. It's pretty cramped in the common areas (there were five of us). The same is true about the bedrooms. The master bedroom is very dark compared to the other bedrooms. The bed is also extremely low to the ground. In the bedroom with the twin beds, one of the mattresses doesn't fit the frame (it's too short) and the other frame is broken in one spot. The other queen bedroom's linens were so worn out that the fitted sheet would pop off the mattress. There is a lack of storage in all the bedrooms (more like cabinets than dressers). I think the indoor spaces would be better served with some updated furniture that wasn't so large for the area and cleaning out some of the items in closets to make room for renters' belongings.

Manager Response:  Thank you for your review and for being our guest at Happy Tabby Cottage. We are so glad to hear you enjoyed the spacious porch, fenced in backyard and that you had a great experience renting with us. We apologize for any inconveniences you faced with the furniture size, bedroom issues, and linens. We sincerely appreciate your feedback, and we will be sure to look into these concerns. We appreciate your suggestions for updated furniture and increased storage and we will be sure to consider making adjustments there as well.  It was a pleasure hosting you all and we hope we can have the opportunity to host you all again next time you are in St. Simons.

We’ve stayed at several different dog-friendly places on St Simons and this was by far our favorite. Loved the location and proximity to beach, the quiet surroundings, and the fully fenced yard! The tabby cottage is so clean and welcoming. It was the perfect amount of space for our party of two dogs and two adults (we each had our own full bathroom which was awesome). The couch was such a comfy spot to hang out on at the end of the day. The communication with the property managers was prompt and polite. We’d definitely stay here again.

Manager Response: Thank you for your 5 star review and for being our guest at Happy Tabby Cottage! We are so glad you loved your stay here and that this is your favorite dog-friendly spot on the island!

This property was even better than posted. It had so much room and space to hang out. It had everything we needed and then some. It was decorated so stinking cute. The location was also GREAT...in the middle of everything. We rented a golf cart and used it the entire week. The house was very clean and we can't wait to stay here again.

Comfortable and clean place to base ourselves for our island adventures. The winter weather was warm enough for a few days that the sun porch became our favorite cottage spot to relax. Close to shops, restaurants, and all outdoor activities that we had planned. We loved the vintage/vintage-inspired décor. Important maintenance issue addressed quickly by property management.

We've never stayed on this part of the island, but I'm glad we did. We could walk the dogs in the neighborhood and to the beach. The house is well-equipped, cleverly decorated and comfortable, and the screened porch is perfect.

This house was perfect for us, the screened in porch was great and I loved have a fence in yard with a swing for our daughter to play on. Great location, it is 5 minutes from the beach and anywhere else we wanted to go. This was our first trip to St. Simon's and we definitely want to go back and would like to stay at the same house.

So glad that Happy Tabby was perfect for your family, Amanda! We'll look forward to your return visit!

We loved St. Simon’s Island. Happy Tabby Cottage was a great find. It is located in a quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed early morning walks. It was the perfect getaway for 3 senior citizens looking for a change of scenery. I’m sure we will visit again.

Loved the house and it was very comfortable for our week long vacation on St. Simons. The fenced-in yard was a selling point for us traveling with our two dogs, who loved it. Kitchen appliances are wonderful, family room was super comfy, and the screened in porch was wonderful.

My husband and I just spent a week in this lovely home. It is spacious, in a quiet neighborhood, in a convenient location to restaurants, etc. We spent most of our time on the lovely screened porch. It is quite large, with multiple tables, places to sit and even a twin bed! Our chihuahua fell in love with it too! If you have family/friends traveling with you the other bedrooms/bath are quite nice as well. The decor is vintage swim-themed and amazing!

Felt very homey unlike many other rentals that look/feel like rentals. Decor was beachy & eclectic and the home was clean with basic necessities like soap, paper towels, etc. Back porch is a great feature and the location is very convenient. Perfect beach home away from home for our family of 4.

I had planned a girls trip with 2 of my oldest friends and had no idea I would be walking into such a beautiful home! Every detail was tended to-- from the beach and retro themed art on the walls to the sheets and towels and appointments on the door handles and kitchen drawers! We were whisked into a mermaid world of comfort and beauty-- seriously! Everything was spotlessly clean and fresh and every room had a special charm. We wanted to move in permanently! The 3 bedrooms were all decorated with detailed care and each wall hanging and pillow felt personally selected for aesthetics and function. We had a multitude of beach towels and blankets and the screened in porch was a huge separate room for hanging out. It felt like we lived there but had the most caring imaginative decorator create our perfect space! I don't think I could say enough to do it justice! As beautiful and comfortable as it was, there was a sense of calmness and purposefulness permeating the interior. If I could live there, I would in a second! The neighborhood was quiet and well-kept. I am in love with The Happy Tabby Cottage and felt like every need was well-thought out! This is a lovely home and it enveloped us in beauty and extreme comfort! Thank you so much for offering this rental! Wish we could be there now!
