Before Beau and I actually got to Coconut Grove, FL we spent a week at one of the Idyll Cottages on St. Simons Island, GA.  The cottage was charming and fantastically located right in the ‘ village’.  There is a public beach across the street from the Idyll Cottage where pets were allowed before 9 am and after 6 pm which Beau thoroughly loved!

The nicest part of our week on St. Simons was that Beau and I had family come to visit!  My parents and my son Robb all came to spend a few days and we had a wonderful time!

St. Simons offers a huge selection of outdoor pet-friendly dining and as we discovered one evening, so does River Street in Savannah, GA.  Savannah was about an hour and a half drive, but lots of fun once we got there.  The picture above is of my two beautiful boys on the Riverwalk in Savannah, GA.
