The Sea Biscuit Cottage is a charming and nicely appointed bungalow located on Tybee Island, Georgia. Originally the cottage was built as a garage, it was also thought to have been used as a servant's quarters for a neighboring home and was left vacant and neglected for many years, most recently used as a storage building. The previous owner realized the potential that this quaint structure possessed and enlisted the help and style of local designer Jane Coslick to completely renovate and redecorate the cottage. Their vision was to create a bungalow that really exemplified the laid back and comfortable Tybee-style. In fact, the inspiration in naming the cottage Sea Biscuit was due to the enormous task ahead; appreciating, believing in and creating a thoroughbred out of what looked to be at best a "work horse".  The many months and labor of love was surely worth it as the cottage is truly a gem; it was even featured as the smallest of seven homes on the 2003 Tybee tour of homes.  There are many noteworthy details from the salvaged Savannah gray brick flooring on the front porch, to the hand-painted seahorses by local artist Pam Martin that adorn the hand-made shutters and picket fence. The new owners and caretakers of Sea Biscuit are Carrie and Scott Efird; they look forward to welcoming you to Tybee and providing you with a truly unique and memorable place to stay during your visit.
