Official Description (provided by the hotel)

Prized for its pristine natural beauty, gracious hospitality and secluded worlds-away appeal, Little St. Simons Island is a private barrier island just off the Georgia coast. One of the crown jewels of Georgia's famed Golden Isles, Little St. Simons Island offers 7 miles of private beaches and 10,000 acres of undeveloped wilderness for exploration and relaxation. Privately owned since 1908, Little St. Simons Island has retained the charm and unhurried pace of coastal living. Moss draped live oaks and glistening marshes surround gracious accommodations in six charming cottages for no more than 32 overnight guests. The island is a paradise for nature lovers and offers a host of recreational, naturalist-led experiences including birding, boating, canoeing, kayaking, hiking, bicycling, interpretive tours, beachcombing, fishing and swimming. Accessible only by boat, this extraordinary natural sanctuary-among the last of its kind anywhere- welcomes your discovery. ... more

“What an Amazing Place!”

Reviewed 5 days ago NEW

I love nature. I love being in nature and learning about nature. The Lodge provides an excellent learning experience in a lovely setting. The naturalists were incredible - knowledgeable but able to talk to "real" people - no jargon, but lots of passion. The Lodge offers a wide range of experiences from wildlife viewing (rattlesnakes, mink, dolphin, alligators, and birds... More

“Disappointed”

Reviewed 1 week ago via mobile

We had looked forward to our day trip to Little St Simons as a wildlife and birding opportunity. The most enjoyable part of the trip was the boat ride over and back. I haven't ridden in the back of a pick-up truck since I was nine years old and was surprised to find myself on a bench seat for the... More

1 Thank writerju

I'm terribly sorry to hear that you were disappointed in the day trip and appreciate you bringing it to our attention. During the introduction to the tour, the Naturalist gives the guests the opportunity to use the restroom and pick up a reusable water bottle to use on the tour. It sounds like that may not have been communicated well.... More

“Amazing opportunities to enjoy the natural Georgia coast”

Reviewed August 22, 2016

With three days, two nights, I was able to kayak 3 times, go on two naturalist led expeditions, walk the beach and look for sea shells 3 times. The naturalist/guides are open to suggestions for activities that interest each individual. The food was amazing, featuring fresh produce from their organic garden. The chocolate chip cookies were addictive! The rooms are... More

My extended family and I (my parents; sister and spouse with 11 month old twins; and my spouse and 3 kids, ages 3, 6, and 8) spent a week here in early June.

When my husband and I were waiting for the ferry to take us to the island, the guests at the end of their stay all looked blissed out. I can now see why. Here are some of the highlights: 1. We had a blast. Birding, boat rides, biking, the beach, fishing...we couldn't even find time to do everything. 2. The... More

“LSSI with children”

Reviewed May 25, 2016 via mobile

The reason to stay at LSSI is for its pristine rugged beauty, privacy, and knowledgeable naturalists. The food, libations and accommodations are adequate, but, nothing special. The main building is fabulously rustic. The staff is super gracious and accommodating. True, the wine and beer are included in the cost, but, trust me, bring your own. My 10 year olds tell... More
