The space
This property is one of a kind on the Georgia coast. You'll have 7 acres to yourself along with your own private dock.
The home itself is a restored long cabin. We have lovingly brought her back to life, providing you with a clean, modern amenities experience while also enjoying nature, wildlife, and quiet you didn't know still existed.
If you long to see what paradise looked like before they paved it over and put up a parking lot, this is the place for you.
That being said, it is a quirky 50 year old cabin with a different type of layout. The Airbnb software and photos don't allow to completely explain it.
The listing says it sleeps 8 and indeed it can.
Just understand: There are two regular bedrooms. One has a king-sized bed. The other features two queen-sized beds.
What is listed as the third bedroom is the front sitting room. It is roomy and has pocket doors that allow you to create a separate private bedroom.
The fourth sleeping space is the roomy upstairs loft. Both of these spaces have sleeper sofas that pull out to queen-sized beds. They honestly can be some of the most popular sleeping spaces in the cabin because they offer the most incredible views. And we do have nice bedding to make them very comfortable.
We share to say if you are looking for a cookie cutter McMansion where everyone gets their own room and bathroom, Ms. Lou's Cabin is not for you. But if you're looking for a clean, updated quirky space on a marsh that you will never forget, then please come see us!

Lives in Shellman Bluff, Georgia
When my husband and I moved to this remote section of the GA coast, our city friends thought we were crazy. We haven't looked back. Our neighbor, Louise, took us under her wing, teaching us the ways of the marsh: the tides, the critters, the weather and the beauty. Lou lived here for more than 40 years with her beloved husband. When he passed away, Louise decided her time here was done. We couldn't bear for the wrong people to get their hands on her precious log cabin and the 7 wild acres it sits on. So, we bought the cabin, lovingly restored it and are now ready to share her with the world. When you come to Ms. Lou's Cabin, know that you are staying in a home built on love and you are helping us do our part to keep this precious section of the coast wild and undeveloped. Come see us for your first visit to Ms. Lou's. It certainly won't be your last.
