Great location, Cozy Cottage with lots of character. The Tyree trolley is exactly as described on the rental page. Very neat rental with lots of cottage type character and charm. Well decorated and stocked with everything you need to make a memorable vacation. Perfect location with easy beach front access. Everything we wanted to do on Tybee was within walking distance.

The Trolley is our favorite place to stay on Tybee. It is a little funky and very cozy, so from the minute we open the door we start to relax and feel at home. We love the location because we can walk or bike to our favorite places. We always look forward to our stay at The Trolley and are never disappointed.

Perfect location, beautiful views, NO steps! The "Trolley Car" nostalgia was a definite draw. Would have loved more history, maybe a page in the info book provided at the property.

This property is very cute and snug! The cleanliness of this property was terrible. The first night we had to have them come out and clean the bathroom as it has not been clean. No pillow cases on the pillows. Most of the doors on the property interior you could barely get open(it took an act of congress to do so) *EXTREME FIRE HAZARD* and the sun room floor fell in while we stayed there. Oh and there was broken windows being held together by tape. During the stay the company was very responsive with our concerns and was prompt to fix what they could but after you check out they did not want to help you resolve any issues/compensate for your troubles. Very disappointed with the stay especially for the price paid. They wouldn’t even compensate the cleaning cost of the property very disappointed! Will never stay with Tybee Cottages/ Lucky Savannah again!

The cottage is unique with the 'street car' being a wonderful element. The beds were very nice, everything was clean and in order.
There is a roach problem but can tell its being worked. The kitchen is well stocked.

Showing a little bit of age but very unique compared to all the typical condos. Still don't know how the trolley got there...

Tybee trolley was definitely old. The trolley portion of the house was unique and interesting. The house was clean and most everything worked beautifully. The water smelled horrific, but after running it for about 45 minutes the smell was much better. The roaches were our company day and night dead and alive. it was not very appetizing! As described in the write up about this house, the view of the beach was totally obstructed. However, we knew that before we rented it. Tiger trolley is definitely a house that would hold four people comfortably. Any more than that It’s a tight fit everywhere.

Myself and two of my sisters wanted to relax and enjoy the beach for a few days and found the Tybee Trolley to be the perfect answer. It’s quaint and comfortable. All one level and right on the beach. Loved the decor and whitewashed interior. It’s a 2 mile walk on the beach from it to the point (past the pier) so perfect for getting four miles of exercise everyday or an easy walk towards the channel to view the ships as they come in or also visit the lighthouse and museums by it. Perfect accommodations for 3 to 4. Think that 6 may make it a bit crowded but could accommodate up to 6. I will definitely be back and would recommend the Tybee Trolley to those who appreciate some time period surroundings and uniqueness in their cottage. Had a great time!

This is the most adorable property and right on the beach! We loved it and enjoyed our stay!
5.0
Though it's small, with few frills, the beds were comfortable, the neighborhood was quiet, and it had everything we needed. And it was cool to walk around inside the old trolley. Being right on the beach was so convenient. The beach wasn't over crowded at all and everybody is so friendly. I would stay here again!

What a wonderful trolley beach house- we had a great, peaceful beach weekend and will definitely stay here again. It’s vintage, different and comfortable- on a private part of the beach & we all really enjoyed! For a mom & her two grown daughters it was perfect.

We had a wonderful time at the cottage! The property was just like the pictures, check in was easy, there are restaurants and shops within walking distance, and the location right on the beach was super convenient. We are a family of 5 and the space was just perfect. We would definitely stay here again, thanks so much!

This was perfect for us. Two adults and two kids. The ambiance of this little house was wonderful. Loved all the little details of the trolley in the house. Access to the beach was easy and close. A little hard to find the house when we first arrived but didn’t mind it being hidden during our stay. I would definitely recommend to family and friends!!!

They said that there was a gas grill, there was not. Although the coffee maker did not work, it was replaced with a new one that day. There were roaches that were almost dead that really left me feeling unhappy with the rental. For $350. a night, I was not a happy camper with this rental.

We stayed for our summer vacation(about 5 days). The cottage is very cute with loads of charm. It's a little older than I anticipated and needs a few minor updates, but overall it was great.

This is not a new, sterile property. But rather a quaint house built around an old trolley car. We loved it because we like to stay places that have "heart". Even my gr. grand 12 year old loved the place. We had everything we needed space wise and beach wise. Had a table outside get blown over and broken, but the management people were very responsive in getting all the glass cleaned up. Would definitely stay here again.

This property was great. I wouldn't do a big group here but a small family of four or five, mother daughter/s would be perfect. I went with my mom and my sister and had a fantastic time. Loved that it was right off the beach and pretty quiet when I went. The only thing I would have to say I didn't like was the showers, not to much room to move, mostly turn around in. Overall, for my trip it was pretty perfect and very soothing.

As always a stay in a Tybee Cottages home was awesome. The Trolley is not a 5 star resort, but it wasn't expected to be. It's very comfortable for 3 people, and I'd definitely rent again with 4. Being beachfront is special. Thank you, Jim!

The Trolley house is an excellent property. It is right on the beach and near everything. It's an older home and has a small kitchen, but has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. Its very unique due to the inside is actually an old St Louis trolley. So if you are a history buff, you will enjoy staying at this home.

Like a lot of people, my wife and I have really needed a break, but with aging parents and people in the family with underlying health issues, we've been very hesitant to take a trip during Covid. We could not have chosen more wisely for so many reasons.First of all, the area of Tybee Island and Savannah was relaxing and as safe as I could imagine any tourist place being. We were always able to eat outdoors and most everyone we encountered was wearing a mask. We really enjoyed the hospitality and beauty of the area.As for the cottage, this charming little cottage built around a trolley captured our hearts! We don't just want to come back to Tybee, we want to come home to the Trolley at 1 Second Place! Nothing was missing - we had every comfort. The beds and sofas were incredibly comfortable. The ability to step from the backdoor right onto the sand spoiled us! We hardly left the cottage. My wife would have taken the blue denim sofa home with her if she could have figured out a way to fit it in her bag.Because of illness, we actually cancelled the trip and then with the doctor's ok, we booked it again - all with no problem at all.Altogether as wonderful a vacation experience as we have ever had and we are sure to come again to the Trolley at 1 Second Place.Bob & Dianne MatthewsSection, AL

Everything was great! The cottage is so unique & the location can’t be beat. I would literally open the back door & let the boys run straight to the beach. We loved everything about the cottage, from the trolley itself to the linens, amazing sink, super-comfy couches, and the beach chairs provided.
