The Trolley's long and lean frame now serves as the captivating centerpiece for the living and dining area, providing an unforgettable ambiance.

The first bedroom boasts a king-size bed and a full bath, which leads to the second bedroom featuring two twin beds. On the opposite end of the cottage, you'll find the third bedroom with a queen-size bed and a large alcove that provides additional space for relaxation.

The Trolly House

This was a great location for the beach and town areas. We really enjoyed the time spent on the beach which was a short walk over the dunes. The beach was not busy and enjoyed the long walks during the day and night.

Third year at Tybee

This was our third year visiting Tybee but our first stay at Trolley house. Trolley house was cute and unique with a great location. It comfortably fit our family of 5. We loved getting to easily head to the beach everyday and even when the beach was “busier” we still had plenty of space to have our things and play. We would definitely come back to Trolley House!

Beach trip

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!

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.

Trolley Time

We absolutely loved the cozy trolley. It was clean and decorated so cute. We had everything we needed. Close to the beach which was wonderful. Quiet. The weather could have cooperated a little (rainy) but we had a wonderful visit. Saw places in Savannah and Charleston. I would recommend the Tybee Trolley to anyone looking for that special place to visit.

Charming Beach Property

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.
