Mermaid Tales: Rose’s Folie

3 Comments / Mermaid Tales /

     Every one of our cottages has it’s own personality, and Rose’s Folie is no exception. This little cottage is circa 1936 and just begs you to come in, relax, and enjoy your time at the beach! It’s an easy 10 minute walk to Tybee’s North Beach, and your dog will love relaxing or playing in the peaceful fenced in yard.

     This place is just full of unique touches and fun original art. Even the cottage’s sign was handmade by a very talented artist! Don’t you just love the whimsy of the garden arch?!

     Rose’s Folie sleeps eight very comfortably, with 2 queen beds and 2 singles. The cottage is also close to restaurants and other attractions, like the Tybee Island Lighthouse and Museum!

So, plan a trip to visit Rose’s Folie soon! Slow down, step off the mainland, and enjoy a little Tybee Time.

The Blessing of the Pets on Tybee!

Leave a Comment / Uncategorized /

     The All Saints Episcopal Church here on Tybee is going to be hosting a wonderful event coming up in October! All pets are invited to attend the Blessing of the Pets..and of course, your humans are welcome too! There will be fun for all, a performance by the Savannah Children’s Preparatory Choir, and even the local mounted patrol and K-9 unit will join the festivities! 
      October 4th is the Feast of Saint Francis, the patron saint of animals and the environment. Saint Francis was born in Assisi in 1182. He lived a simply life of poverty, committed to God, and gained a reputation for being a friend to all animals. He established the rule of St. Francis, which today is known as the Order of Saint Francis, or the Franciscans. He died in 1266 at the age of 44. The Blessing of the Pets is done all over the world in remembrance of the love Saint Francis had for all creatures!

     Make sure you save the date! The event begins at 4pm Sunday, October 3rd in the church yard at All Saints Episcopal Church. (Perfect timing after you attend the Book signing and coffee tasting fundraiser at Seaside Sisters!) 
     The church is on Jones Avenue here on Tybee Island. If you are headed in from Savannah, turn right onto Jone Avenue at the second light and go 8 blocks. The church will be on your left! And don’t worry, if the weather doesn’t cooperate, the festivities will move to the church hall. We can’t wait to see everyone there and celebrate that special bond we share with our furry friends!
