We had a great time. The house is excellent but the pool steals the show - our kiddo loved it. Easy access to all of Jekyll’s amenities especially the bike trail and the historic district. We will definitely be coming back and hope to stay at Lifelong Dream in the future.

Lifelong customer

The house was truly amazing, very well kept and spotless. The location was great, 15 minute drive to everything, beaches, restaurants, shops. There are trails within walking distance or you can rent bikes for easier access. If we weren't out, we were hanging out at the private pool. My family wants to make this a yearly vacation.

The best time ever!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This cozy get away island had it all. My family got back to a time when riding bikes, walking the beach together and family cookouts were our everyday events. Jekyll island is the safest, sure real family destination that we all could connect during the days and play games in the evenings together. Lifelong dream is a perfect name for this rental. The historical area and turtle hospital added to this fun experience. Your island has some of the most fun restaurants and we loved the exceptional foods. Most certainly, we are going to be coming back as a yearly family retreat.

Another great Jekyll Island vacation in the books! Our house was just wonderful, it had everything we needed and more. A well-stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, and the swimming pool was awesome. The beach gear credit was an added bonus that we used for bikes. Great weather, good fishing, super vacation.
