Here are what our past renters have to say:
"Wonderful cottage", "Great place", "Perfect Spot", "Perfect Cottage". "Cute beach cottage", "Great getaway", "Perfect", "Adorable cottage", "Perfect getaway".

This cottage was built in August 2018. Super clean, and a great location.

Pet friendly. No smoking. Minimum of 3 nights $75 nonrefundable pet fee required. 50lb limit.

One bedroom, one bathroom, open kitchen with bar, brand new washer and dryer, built in day bed with a trundle. Sleeps 4. Covered front porch. Parking in front.

Includes dishwasher, refrigerator with ice maker, oven, stove, microwave, coffee maker, linens, towels, dishes, and fully equipped kitchen. 32" Smart TV in the bedroom and a 55" Smart TV in the living room. Free WiFi. The coffee maker is the filter (drip) type.

Discounted Rates for Weekly and Monthly available. Contact us to inquire.

REMINDERS: This Cottage is attached to our main house. We use this Cottage frequently for our family and friends.
No smoking means no smoking inside or anywhere on the property. This includes vaping as well.
Please do not unplug the cables to either TV. Both have additional HDMI slots if you want to plug something in. We have had occasions where it was unplugged and not plugged back in and the next guest called about no TV service. This also causes the router to be reset.
Max is 4 persons.
Dog weight limit is strictly adhered to. Contact us if you have a question.
No early (4pm) or late check outs (10am) without prior approval.
We do not accept a reservation with a check in or check out the same day as another existing reservation. The reason is because we follow the protocols for Covid cleaning and it requires about 4 hours to clean. We simply cannot get this done and schedule the cleaner in time to meet the 4 pm time.
We ask that you follow these and the other guidelines.

Perfect Getaway!

This was our second time staying at the Salty Dawg Cottage and just like the first time everything was great! The property is clean and spacious all while being conveniently located close to the beach, restaurants and shops. The screened in porch is an added bonus! We would definitely recommend this rental and can’t wait to come back again!

Great location wonderful host

Tastefully decorated and very clean, we loved the property. We were there for 16 days and never saw our host but she was responsive to our questions and supplemented with some kitchen equipment we needed. The beach is really close. The folks we met were kind. We walked to the village as well as the brewery the only reason we won’t return is our need for dining chairs instead of a counter

We had a wonderful stay at this cottage. It was so clean and had everything we needed. The screened in porch is a huge added bonus to this cottage. We dropped our beach stuff off on it each day. Kitchen appliances are very nice and the AC was nice and cold. We will absolutely be staying here again!

A great place to stay’

The Salty Dawg is a wonderful place to stay when at St Simons Island. The cottage is immaculately clean, up to date and the owners are very responsive to any need that you may have. The location is situated within walking distance to the Village, restaurants, shops and Neptune Park. We absolutely fell in love with the neighborhood and St Simmons. My husband and I traveled with our French Bulldog and the property, neighborhood and St Simons Island is so pet friendly. The cottage has a screened in porch which is perfect for morning coffee or an afternoon glass of your favorite beverage. The added touches of coozies and the welcoming atmosphere makes this cottage feel like home.

Never been here … but we’ll be back!

I didn’t know St Simons Island existed, but now I do, and I know where to stay. This place was EXTREMELY CLEAN, and well prepared for all of us, including our young pup. (The owners even delivered dog bowls, biscuits, and a mat for the bowls on the floor.) The shower water was HOT! It was close to town and the beach. The neighborhood was wonderful, very quaint. SO GLAD we found this place!
