The location is perfect, literally steps to the beach & a short walk to nearby restaurants. We had our dogs with us & they settled really well, the front balcony was probably their & our favourite spot! Ideal spot for a morning coffee & perfect for a glass of wine later. The host was very responsive to any questions I had & were very clear with check-in & checkout information. The house is well stocked with everything you need to enjoy your stay. Felt very comfortable in the house & I’m sure we’ll be back to enjoy another wonderful trip!

Manager Response: Thank you for your review and for being our guest at Stones Throw Cottage! We are so glad you loved this spot and its awesome location! We love that your dogs settled in so well here and that you enjoyed your time on the front balcony too! We hope we can host you all again next time you are in St. Simons for another wonderful trip!

We had a wonderful stay at Stones throw cottage, the location is just perfect! There is a beach access point just steps away from the house, it was great to have such easy access to the beach. There’s a good selection of restaurants nearby & the village/pier area is only a short walk away. We really enjoyed sitting on the front balcony with our morning coffee, our dogs loved this spot too - perfect for a rest after a long walk on the beach! The rental management were very responsive to any questions we had, they were very informative regarding check-in & check out procedures excellent communication throughout. The house had everything we needed to enjoy our stay & I’m sure we’ll be back again.

Manager Response:  Thank you for your review and for being our guest at Stones Throw Cottage!  We are so glad you had such a wonderful stay here and that enjoyed the awesome location too!  It sounds like you all had a wonderful vacation and we hope we can host you again next time you are in St. Simons!

Enjoyed our stay. Very close to the beach which was very convenient. Only complaint is that the TVs were a little wonky.

Manager Response:  Thank you for your review and for being our guest at Stones Throw Cottage!  We are so glad you enjoyed your time here and the close proximity to the beach as well!  Thank you for letting us know about the TV's.  We will take a look at them to make sure they are working properly for future guests.  We hope to see you all again next time you are in St. Simon!

This was our second stay at a stones throw and it was just as great as we remember it. Location is awesome and very comfortable and clean!

This property included everything one could ask for… location was SO convenient to the beach, for waking, as well as near restaurants. The house was perfectly clean and comfortable! Already missing enjoying morning coffee on the front patio. And the communication from the owners could not have been better (the App was such a plus!) Will most definitely be staying here again.

Manager Response: Thank you for your 5 star review and for being our guest at Stones Throw Cottage! We are thrilled that you all had such a lovely time here and that this property had everything you were wanting! You really can't beat that location. We hope to see you all again soon!

Very nice home, and a great location. Quite a lot of stairs to walk up and down both to enter the property and travel between the 2 floors so keep that in mind if you are interested in renting this property. Re the steps, the ones leading from the main level to the loft are quite slippery and could use a strip or carpet across each step to make them safer, but, other than that, we loved the house. It's only about 150 feet to the beach and there are a number of shops, eateries and bars within a 3/4 mile walk. Thanks for the great trip!

Manager Response:  Thank you for your review and for being our guest at Stones Throw Cottage!  We are so glad you had such a fun time here and enjoyed the close proximity to the beach, shops and restaurants!  We appreciate your feedback as well on the slippery stairs.  We will be sure to make note of that and make sure it is not an issue moving forward.  We hope to see you all again when you visit St. Simons!

Place was great. The only issues were in the downstairs bathroom. The shower did not drain so each shower included a small bath. Also, the shampoo and soap in the shower did not work - nothing would come out of each bottle.

Manager Response: Thank you for your 5 star review and for being our guest at Stones Throw Cottage. Thank you for letting us know about shower and shampoo and soap dispensers. We will be sure to look into those items so it isn't an issue for future guests. We are glad you had a great time here though and hope to see you all again when you visit St. Simons!

Stone's Throw Cottage was everything one could want for a beach getaway. It was immaculately clean and well appointed (right down to the Stone's Throw Cottage-branded cocktail napkins!) and ... it's a less than 2 minute walk to the beach. Location, location, location, as they say! And the property management was exceptional; our first day there we had a problem with the AC, and in less than an hour after we called they had an AC repair service there to fix the problem. Would definitely rent here again, or would rent any other property Lilmar Properties owns/manages. Overall, five stars!

Manager Response: Thank you for your 5 star review and for being our guest at Stones Throw Cottage! We are so glad you loved this property and the awesome location as well! We hope to see you all again soon!

The location is perfect. You are steps from the beach, an easy walk to village and to other shops/restaurants near the King and Prince. We barely ever used our car. The house is very well stocked...everything you might need in the kitchen, plenty of towels, games, yoga mat, they thought of alot. The house gets great natural light and in January we had great afternoon sun on both balconies. Highly recommend. And Lilmar was super responsive to any emails.

Manager Response:  Thank you so much for your 5 star review and for being our guest at Stones Throw Cottage!  We are so glad you loved this spot and its awesome location.  We hope to see you again soon!

After a hellacious first night of the burglar alarm repeatedly going off with no accessible help, the remainder of our stay proved very pleasant. This cozy townhouse was perfect for three of us and our dog. We loved long walks on the beach and easy walks to the village. The furnishings are very nice, especially for a dog welcoming home. The beds are comfortable and appliances new. We appreciated the welcome supplies left by management company as well as some staples in the pantry such as salt/pepper and olive oil. We loved being able to park our cars in the garage, which was clean and well organized. Even though we didn’t use any of the beach chairs, they seemed to be in good condition. The shower/hose outside was easily accessible to clean the sand off of our feet and our dog. We had both warm and cold weather during our short stay so we used both AC and heat. They both worked very well. Management company handled the first night’s mishap in a fair and equitable way. Overall, we would highly recommend Stone’s Throw Cottage.

Manager Response:  Thank you for your review and being a guest, Cynthia!  We are so sorry for the alarm issue you had on your first night there and understand the frustration with that, but glad we were able to take care of it for you.  We are so glad you enjoyed the rest of your stay here and were able to enjoy the beach and close proximity to the village as well!  We hope to see you all again on your next visit to St. Simons!

Relaxing week stay. Within steps of the beach without the (foot / vehicle) traffic. Quiet (and preferred) location. Nicely furnished and layout lends itself to privacy as needed. Security system continued to beep after we gained access to the unit one day, and management promptly addressed. Had no other on-site issue. Having beach chairs and similar on-site was welcome. Would heartily recommend.

Manager Response:  Thank you for your 5 star review, Brian!  We are so glad you all had a nice, relaxing week at Stones Throw Cottage!  We hope to see you all again soon!

The townhome was very clean and we loved that it was a close walk to the beach. It was also close to the downtown area, restaurants and shops. It was equipped with all the necessities for a 5 day stay. The only complaint we had was that the neighbors were doing construction and it was loud throughout the day and evenings. The construction crew were staying there throughout the time so it was difficult to enjoy the outdoor balconies.

Manager Response:  Thank you for your review, Myra!  We are so glad you loved the proximity to the beach and Pier Village area!  We are so sorry for the construction that was going on next door during your stay and that it made it difficult to enjoy the balconies during that time.  We do hope to see you all again and will make sure that construction is not an issue next time.

Husband and I stayed here with our dogs. Highlight of the property is the proximity to the beach-seriously a 5 minute walk. Two porches and a grill were nice too. Whole property needs to be scrubbed with a magic eraser as it has clearly seen a lot.of traffic, and the floors and walls need a touch of TLC, but we would be open to staying here again.

Thank you for your review, Emily. Your feedback helps us do better and we take our guests' suggestions seriously. We look forward to seeing you again.

Another great stay on SSI and this property is in a perfect location for walking to the beach and restaurants. The property itself is as pictured, comfortable and clean. We would definitely recommend.

Thank you for the excellent recommendation, Michael! It's good to hear you enjoyed Stones Throw Cottage and it's great walkability to many of the things we all enjoy on the Island. We hope to see you again soon!

We had a great time at A Stone ‘s Throw. The kids loved riding bikes and sitting on the upstairs porch. It is a short walk to the beach path. We all enjoyed our evening walks on the beach looking for crabs. The rental was very clean and well decorated. Most everything that you need for a pleasant stay is provided. All of the fun places to visit in St. Simons are only a short ride away. We will be back again someday soon!

My wife and I had a great honeymoon at Stone’s Throw Cottage! Very clean and management was very quick to help with anything we needed. Very short walk to East Beach as well as 3 good restaurants. We would definitely vacation here again or anywhere else Lilmar Properties manages.

As returning guests of the property we can’t say enough good things, from the location, to the ease of checkin and amenities - it feels like home every time we return. If you want to be close to the beach, restaurants and shopping this is the property for you. Thank you again for a wonderful family vacation.

Manager Response: Thank you very much . We are so happy to know that once again you enjoyed your stay.  We look forward to the next stay!

Christina - Posted: 6/15/2021

The Stones Throw is located close to beach and lots of restaurants, and we appreciated that it’s pet friendly. It’s a little misleading that it sleeps 8, because you pull both couches out at the same time..they’re too close together. (The pullout mattress is in dire need of replacement.) Kitchen stocked well, with the exception of cutlery (only two teaspoons). Decor is very nice, and great attention was given to ensuring cleanliness. All in all, we had a nice visit and were grateful to find a spot close to the beach and that allowed us to bring our dog.

Manager Response: Thank you for your review, we are glad that you enjoyed your stay!

Clorinda - Posted: 6/5/2021

My family loved staying at Stone's Throw for our family vacation. Our four kids claimed the upstairs and the parents enjoyed the master bedroom downstairs. There was plenty of space for the six of us to sleep and hang out. The dining room table was snug, so the adults usually sat in the living room or at the kitchen bar. Everything was sparkling clean! The porches were especially lovely and enjoyed frequently. We hope to return soon!

Manager Response: We are so thrilled that you and your family loved the Stones Throw Cottage. Happy that everyone enjoyed their stay. We look forward to the next time. 

Leah - Posted: 5/14/2021

This rental is beautifully appointed and designed. We enjoyed sitting on the front deck and catching up with family. We were a party of 6 and the kitchen/living area was a bit too small for all of us to hang out there at once. Lovely decor! The beach is within a close walk - we even let our 8-year-old walk it alone a few times. St. Simons island has many great shops and restaurants. We rented bikes and it was the best decision of our trip. The nearby beach disappears at high tide but during low tide we had a great time out there.

Manager Response: We are so happy that you and your family had such a great stay at the Stones Throw Cottage. The tide does come in and out so yes you do have to catch it at the right times but we are happy that you had a great trip here on St. Simons Island shopping, riding bikes, and beach. St. Simons is a great place for vacation. Glad you enjoyed it! 
Thank you

We had a great family trip to SSI. The townhouse was beautiful, very clean and a great location.

Emily - Posted: 3/19/2021

We loved everything about Stones Throw Cottage. The one block walk to the beach is on a quiet street. With two spacious floors plus a huge garage it had plenty of space for our group of 4 adults and 2 kids. Great restaurants are also a short walk. We highly recommend Barrier Island Brewing but there are lots of good choices. We will return as soon as possible.

Literally just steps from the beach. Makes setting up for a day on the beach a breeze. The house was perfect for two couples, providing plenty of privacy when needed. It could easily accommodate larger groups though.

Alex - Posted: 9/9/2020

We had a great time in St Simons and the location of this 2 story cottage had a lot to do with it. About 100 yards to the water made the beach simple. Easy 3 block walk to Crab Daddys, Barrier Island Brewing and Beachcomber BBQ. Short 5 minute bike ride to town center. Cottage was very clean and comfortable for 4 adults but workable for 5, and the neighbors were friendly and neighborhood was fun to explore. Rental team was easy to work with as well.

Matt - Posted: 8/21/2020

This was our first trip to St. Simons. The home was very clean and well -furnished. It is located just a VERY short stroll from the beach in a great area of the island. We enjoyed bike riding and had very relaxed time on the beach. Everything was perfect!

John - Posted: 7/19/2020

Such a wonderful house. Very inviting, bright, and clean, and maybe a 1 minute walk to the beach. It was perfect for a getaway with my husband. There are a lot of stairs, so maybe not the best option for people with joint problems/older individuals.

Stephen - Posted: 6/26/2020

Great experience for our family! It’s literally a stones throw from the beach and has a very deep garage that we were able to get two long trucks into. Lots of toys for the kiddos too! If I could suggest one addition to consider, adding a baby gate that you store in the washroom so that it can be pulled out and installed at the top of the stairs for families traveling with small children. It’s really an impeccable place though and we had a wonderful time!

Stephen - Posted: 10/29/2019

Beautiful house, close to the beach, perfect place for relaxing weekday getaway.

Bo - Posted: 7/15/2019

Great place and location a few doors (or a stone's throw) from the beach. Also within walking distance to several restaurants and close to the SSI village (longish walk or short bike ride).

Edward - Posted: 7/15/2019

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage is very comfortable and clean. The area is quiet and relaxing. Access to the beach is good. Dog friendly beach is a little misleading. From Memorial Day to Labor Day can only take dogs on beach before 9:00 am and after 6:00 pm. Grocery store, restaurants, and activities are close by. Loved the bike trail. Providing all the beach stuff, towels, chairs, wagon, etc is a big plus. It eliminates having to bring all that from home. This was our first trip to Saint Simons Island. We will be back for sure.

Edward W Or Debra - Posted: 6/8/2019

I'd like to keep this place to myself, but in the name of fairness, please be aware that this is a GREAT place at the beach. Here's why: 1) Super-Clean place; 2) Great floor plan and decor; it looks new!; and 3) an amazing location. You are only a few steps from the beach and with a ground-level garage, you can keep your gear packed and ready to go each day. The property management team was excellent, thorough, and made it all easy. Like I said before, keep it to yourself, though; if everyone knows about this property, it'll stay booked all the time! ;-)

Mark - Posted: 5/25/2019

Our family really enjoyed our first visit to St. Simons Island. The home was great-so close to the beach and really nicely furnished. We would definitely recommend this beach rental!

Carin - Posted: 4/29/2019

You can’t ask for a better location to the beach and town. House was clean and up to date. It also has all the beach chairs, toys,etc you could need which made packing easy. Definitely will be back.

Andy - Posted: 4/18/2019

Great location, 1 block to beach, close to villiage, etc. Very clean and well stocked kitchen. Nice linens and comfortable beds in the two bedrooms. The two pull out sleep sofas ok for kids not comfortable for adults. They even provided beach towels and chairs. Parking for up to three cars. Quiet street. The only negative for me was the stairs. (garage on 1st, townhouse on the 2nd and 3rd floors)

Lisette - Posted: 3/13/2019

Our family spent the week in this home. We have four small kids and the space was perfect. Everything was super clean and updated. The beach is right across the street so we were able to take the wagon filled with beach toys and chairs and walk right over. Close walk into town too!! We will rebook this home again next year. We had a blast! Owners are very prompt with responding with my questions too. Thanks for the great stay!!!
