Barefoot Children Got No Need To Explain

Barefoot Children got no need to explain.  It’s just like the lyrics to a Jimmy Buffett song, “Show me yours and I’ll show you mine… Take me back to days full of monkeyshines… Bouncin’ on a bubble full of trouble in the summer sun.”  Luckily, you can do more than just hum along.  You can make that one tank trip down to Tybee Island and have your own Barefoot Children experience!

This sun-tastic and family-friendly two-story cottage is packed with fun details and cheerful decor! Conveniently located on Lovell Avenue, Barefoot Children is a quick two block walk to the beach and it’s only three blocks to the Tybee Pier and Pavilion. It’s also close to everything you love to do on Tybee.  There’s shopping, the beach, and a great selection of restaurants.  With four bedrooms, 2.5 baths and some especially fun kids’ rooms, you’ll be barefoot your entire stay!

The front staircase leads to a great screened porch with colorful pink and green chairs and lots of bright, beachy décor.  The entry opens into a large family room with denim beach-friendly furniture.  Enjoy the wonderful art and photos and the big flat-screen TV.  There’s even a vintage locker cubby that has a place to hang and store little ones’ beach gear.

Along with the family room, the first floor features a fully-equipped kitchen with a cheerful aqua china cabinet in the kitchen nook and a whimsical blue and white polka dot chandelier over the dining table. The dining seating is for eight and there’s even a spacious laundry room.

We’ll let you choose from the two downstairs bedrooms.  If you just have to be the adults, there’s one with a queen bed.  Children and the young at heart will want the pirate-themed bedroom that has bunk beds with lots of personality.  Life is good with a full bath and a half bath on the first floor.

Upstairs, the large master bedroom offers a king bed and a separate lounging area, an aqua dresser with a lime green mirror and an aqua, pink, lime green color scheme that’s perfect for the beach.

The reading nook is perfect for a little girl, as it’s decorated in pink patchwork with shelving for books and stuffed animals. Across from the reading nook is an aqua chest with large, fun blue tin tubs on top (read great storage!).

The reading nook leads directly into the master bathroom, complete with double sinks, beachy blue decor and a fun wire basket on a stand filled with super soft towels and washcloths!

The other upstairs bedroom offers a double bed with lavender accents and fun wall art!

The upstairs landing is a fun spot for kids.  There’s an antique highchair, an antique aqua dresser and a kids’ table and chairs set. Don’t overlook the great mermaid rack with hooks located in the stairwell, too.  It’s just the right kitchy-kitchy cool!

This cottage is brimming with fun, bright, kid-friendly decor and it’s the perfect family vacation cottage.  Book it now and you’ll understand why Barefoot Children got no need to explain.
