After the 4th of July, summer kind of loses its magic for many of us. It's easy to feel like the season is over and done with and simply count down the ways for fall. Summer in Georgia doesn't have to be like that, though. There's plenty more time to enjoy the season, and in actuality, summer doesn't technically end until late September! If you're looking for some fun spots to enjoy a last-minute getaway and soak up the last days of summer, we've done the work for you and found some great Airbnb properties that are just perfect for an August or September getaway.
1. Houseboat: Tybee Island
What screams "summer fun" more than a stay on a Tybee Island houseboat? The home is located right on Laaretto Creek on the island's western side. You're not far from restaurants, shops, and, of course, the beach!
With a queen-sized bed, 55-inch TV, full kitchen, and electric fireplace, the home has everything you need for a great stay for one or two guests. Dolphin spotting is very common here, and there's nothing like enjoying a sunset or sunrise on the water! To book your late-summer stay, check out the property's Airbnb listing.
2. Beach Bungalow: St. Simons Island
Another popular summer destination in Georgia is St. Simons Island, and that's where you'll find this colorful little bungalow. The cottage has a new air conditioner and a 65-inch smart TV. You're able to walk to all of the island's top destinations, and it's even dog-friendly, with a privacy fence perfect for letting Fido romp and play.
The two-bed home can sleep up to four guests, and note that management approval is required before bringing a dog along. The outdoor shower is perfect for hosing off after a sandy day at the beach, and it's such a unique design - it's made from an old surfboard!

3. Pine House: Monticello
Prefer freshwater fun? This wonderful Jackson Lake cabin is just what the doctor ordered. There's no shortage of opportunities for fun here, whether you want to go sailing or relax in a hammock. There's even a "game shack" where you can enjoy ping pong or basketball.
