Neighborhood
The Cottages at Jekyll Island are nestled in a premier oceanfront residential community on the beautiful barrier island of Jekyll Island, Georgia—one of the serene Golden Isles along the Atlantic coast. This exclusive neighborhood features modern, townhouse-style cottages (primarily 3+ bedrooms) designed with coastal charm, offering spacious layouts, high-quality finishes, and private outdoor spaces ideal for relaxation and entertaining. Residents and guests enjoy direct or very easy access to the island's pristine, uncrowded beaches, with multiple dedicated beach access points just steps away, panoramic ocean views, and the soothing sounds of the surf. The community includes amenities like an oceanfront pool, clubhouse, and a peaceful, low-density setting that emphasizes the relaxed island lifestyle. It's located along the island's signature northern stretch of shoreline, providing a quiet, family-friendly retreat while remaining conveniently positioned for exploring Jekyll Island's highlights. Surrounding the neighborhood, you'll find Jekyll Island's renowned natural beauty and attractions: Miles of unspoiled beaches, including nearby Americana Beach and the iconic Driftwood Beach with its dramatic, sculptural driftwood formations. The island's National Historic Landmark District (a short drive away), home to beautifully preserved Gilded Age "cottages" (grand mansions), the Jekyll Island Club Resort, Faith Chapel, and other landmarks from the era when millionaires like Rockefeller and Morgan wintered here. Extensive biking and walking trails winding through ancient live oaks draped in Spanish moss, salt marshes, and maritime forests teeming with wildlife such as sea turtles, deer, and shorebirds. Popular spots like the Georgia Sea Turtle Center, golf courses, Summer Waves Water Park, and nature preserves. Jekyll Island itself is a state-managed gem with a focus on conservation, offering a peaceful escape with limited development—perfect for those seeking tranquility, outdoor adventure, and Southern coastal charm. Just across the causeway, the vibrant Golden Isles area provides additional dining, shopping, and entertainment on nearby St. Simons Island and Brunswick. Whether you're strolling along the water at sunset or exploring historic sites, the Cottages of Jekyll Island place you in the heart of this idyllic, nature-rich paradise.
