Beautiful place!

This was the perfect spot for me and my friends to stay for an extended weekend. The views are gorgeous, the house was wonderful, with more than enough room for the 5 adults and one child in our party. The stairs to the bedrooms are a little steep, if that’s an issue, but the view from the upstairs balcony at sunset was well worth it!

Our stay

I was a little surprised by the minimal beginning supplies that were given. We've stayed several other places and it seemed pretty lacking in that area.

Beautiful and Comfortable House on the Water!

My family and I stay on Tybee every year. This was our first time staying at the Doc House, but it was our favorite! The furniture is spacious and comfortable with enough seating for all of us. The beds were lovely. The showers were very nice. Check-In and Check-Out were painless, no-contact experiences. I highly recommend staying here if you are looking for something in the area.

GREAT MINI-VACATION

The house was great. 10 out of 10 Would definitely recommend this house for anyone with a large family. House had everything you could need and plenty of space. The only downside of the weekend was the weather (rain all day Saturday and 30 mph wind), but the house was plenty big enough that even though we were inside all day we did not feel couped up. Thank you for your hospitality.

Doc House for the win

I’ll start off by saying this house was in a wonderful location and the view was beautiful. It was equipped with everything we needed for our stay and we had a great time. We definitely used the doc a lot, for coffee, fishing and just hanging out. However, we did have an unfortunate plumbing situation which made half the bathrooms and showers unusable for most of our stay. That was a huge inconvenience. With that said, the communication with the property manager was awesome through out all of these issues. They were always very responsive and compensated us for our issues without even having to ask, which I truly do appreciate. Once those plumbing issues are fully fixed I would totally recommend this house to anyone and everyone! Check in was a breeze, the maintenance guy they use, Andrew, was amazing and super helpful.

Family Week

The house was nice. There were a a few issues. when we arrived there was a broken wall picture that had been placed on top of the dresser but whomever “cleaned up” missed broken shards of glass on the floor. Luckily we spotted them before someone was injured. Later in the trip when we loaded the washing machine we noticed that it had stained and ruined our clothes. The manager asked to come inspect the washer but we were out and eventually never showed up. I sent multiple pictures of several pieces of ruined shirts and shorts. They seemed unconvinced that this was a problem. The house was nice and the space was comfortable but leaving with ruined clothes really cast a black cloud over our stay. We left feeling the price was too high for what we got.
