This serene retreat on the private barrier island of Little St. Simons houses 16 rustic but comfortable wood-paneled rooms in an original hunting lodge and several outlying cottages. Opt for the brighter, cheerful Tom House or Michael Cottage. An atmospheric lounge encompasses a massive stone fireplace, bookshelves and an open bar. Other common areas include a cozy dining room where simple and delicious Lowcountry dishes are served family-style. This virtually unspoiled 11,000-acre island provides sanctuary for a wealth of wildlife, including nearly 330 species of birds. Naturalist-led bird-watching walks along wild beach are offered. This property is not especially luxurious, but rather the embodiment of rustic comfort. Children under the age of 6 are not permitted.

The attention to detail and meticulous service.
The many tall trees tend to make some rooms dark; the accommodations in Helen House, Tom House and Michael Cottage are brighter and more cheerful.
Given the location, it is not surprising that it can be quite buggy.
