Coastal Home Drive-bys in St. Simons Island, GA

by Rhoda on April 4, 2012

in Out'n'About

I can never visit a coastal town without drooling over the beachy homes along the way.  St. Simons has its share of beautiful low-country style homes and I took the opportunity to take photos of them, cause I knew all of you would love to see them too.

Just now getting around to sharing the rest of my St. Simons trip with you and these were too pretty not to share.

This post is going to be all about the pics, so enjoy!

Now, wasn’t that a fun tour of homes?  Without ever leaving your sofa.

Hope you enjoyed these homes as much as I did.  Coastal St. Simons Island, GA.  It’s a beautiful place!

I lived there for 3 months and it was beautiful! I moved to S. Korea a year and a half ago and I miss St. Simons sooooo much.

St. Simon’s is one of my most favorite places! My mother grew up near there, but I haven’t been there in years. Thank you for a virtual tour!

Wishing this post was a Give Away! I’d take any one of them. So pleased that you’re back on the road to having your own home.
Happy Easter!

Awww… My parents have a place on East Beach. What I wouldn’t give to be there right now?! Sadly for me, but good for them, it has been rented for the entire month of April.

Rhoda- Those are just gorgeous- I love the charm of island homes. Sooo very pretty- I could move into any one of them…wait a sec…as long as I am dreaming along those lines I will ask for the one with the best view! Love the little Ruby Cottage sign in there. xo Diana

Good Morning. I have been following along with you about a year and half now. Love my doses of pretty from Rhoda. I was even a giveaway winner last fall! So now, I have to share, this is where I live. Yes, yes, yes, I am one of the lucky girls to have left ATL and moved here. And I would love to have the chance to meet you and show you around. I am a designer and am getting a chance to work on some fun projects. Happy Easter!

Love them! I’ve never been to that part of the country, but any kind of coastal home works for me, even the ones that I am used to on the shores of Lake Michigan :)

Rhoda,
I’ve never been to St Simon’s Island but it looks like a beautiful place. It always amazes me how coastal towns each take on their own character and charm.
Your Friend,
Deborah

Oh how I love the GA coast. I’ve never been to St. Simon’s but it reminds me of Tybee. The homes are gorgeous and I love the Spanish moss. I need a beach trip badly!

Oh to be rich wouldn’t it be wonderful. I would gladly take anyone of those just to wake up and smell the salt air. Now that’s heaven.

I do love this island. It is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been. Of course, I feel like I have friends there since I am a huge Eugenia Price Book fan. Time to break those out and read them again. Thanks for sharing these photos.

These homes are just beautiful, thank you for sharing!
