What is your budget? There's quite a disparity between the island and the mainland. 300K is pretty much rock-bottom on the island; even then, you won't get a lot. A
lot more bang for your buck in Brunswick.
If you like a more 'historic' flavor to a neighborhood, in Brunswick I would recommend either the Union St area (Victorians) or Windsor Park. North of the city I also like the 'island' community of Riverside (priciest neighborhood in Bwk), Country Club Park and Belle Pointe.
On St Simons, the basic rule is that south of Demere is where you find the 'touristier' cottages, condos and hotels (the beach neighborhoods, the Village, King City and the posh Island Club); north of Demere and the airport (mid-island, upper island) are the more 'permanent' residences and lovely subdivisions such as Devonwood, Wymberly, Sea Palms, St. Clair, West Point and waaaay north, Hampton Point (really nice but at least 15 min from even the most basic amenities). Sea Island is developing a
very high-end development upper-island called Frederica; they have also relocated the resort's stables there.
Then there is neighboring Sea Island itself...I would say that 2 million is the very bottom of the market for a SFH over there. But it
is lovely...

If you would like to build a home, I am particularly enamored of this new development on SSI, because:
- It is conveniently located mid-island and has river access, a rarity on the island. Undeveloped lots are also a rarity mid (and south) island unless you do a teardown.
- The developers plan to live there, so the architectural standards are very exacting.
