Lovely location; very picturesque setting. Delicious breakfast. Debi was a very friendly host. I wish I had returned here for the last few days of my stay on St. Simons Island, instead of the other place I went to. If I come back, I will spend more time at Grey Owl. The elevator was a wonderful convenience; we did not have to tote our bags up and down the stairs.

We needed the lift which was broken. No adjustment was made because of this. No daily maid service was offered or mentioned. Otherwise, the place is lovely with lots of special features. The daily full breakfast is wonderful.
