Catbird has the best location for a quiet and convenient beach vacation! Just 20 min to the amazing St George Island State Park and a 3 min walk to the beach from the house. Perfect views from the main floor balcony!

Location was everything

We enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect with quick walking access to the beach and stores with a beautiful view of the ocean. The property has been neglected and would benefit with some cosmetic improvement, but is reflected in the price compared to others. Check in wasn’t friendly, as if we were not welcome, but they did allow us to stay an extra night. We would stay again.

We enjoyed our stay

Here's our only criticism: insufficient supplies (toilet paper, tissue, no filters for coffee maker) and the A/C system was loud enough to wake the dead.

Great Stay

We enjoyed our stay at Catbird Seat. One thing I did not realize is that the bottom bedroom is completely separate from the rest of the house. It has its own entrance on the ground floor and this is where the washer and dryer is located as well. Check in was a breeze and we were able to check in at 2 instead of 4. The views were nice and the AC kept the house freezing. I had to turn it up from the normal temp that I keep my house at because I was always so cold!

Nice house, great location

We loved our stay here. The house was perfect for my family. My only suggestion would be to provide soap of some kind in the kitchen area and provide extra towels.

Great location-Needs updating!

Great location and view of the water. House is very dated and needs new deck furniture. Only has 2 low sitting chairs so you cannot see the ocean. However, the bed was very comfortable and we had a great time.

Catbird Seat Stay

Great location. Comfortable home that felt like a time capsule back to 1977. No updated anything which was fine by me. The bedroom setup was nice for separation although the light switches upstairs weren’t working which was an inconvenience. The management were helpful when needed which was nice.

Nice vacation!

A lovely cozy house with a beautiful view of the bay. Clean towels and bed linens were provided. I ran a bit short on funds for laundry and showering; there was also a shortage of toilet paper and paper towels. Additionally, there was inadequate outdoor lighting on the first floor and external power outlets. Apart from that, everything was good.

Enjoyed this place!!

Great location. The walkway to the beach is right across from the house, on the beach in 1-2 minutes. Also liked the fact that there was a small but well stocked grocery a few blocks away (Piggly Wiggly Express). The house was open and airy - great size for my husband and myself. Would return.

Quiet stay

Cute little house but needs a little TLC. This was a girls trip and advertised were three bedrooms. Unfortunately we weren’t aware that the first bedroom on the bottom floor was not attached to the main house upstairs. Not a big problem but a little disappointing. Great location with just a few steps across the street to the beach and very close to restaurants. We enjoyed our stay and the island is very quiet and not overrun with tourists!

Interior and patio pictures need to be updated. Not all furniture in pictures there. Washer and dryer were a bonus. Kitchen was awesome, just needs a new coffee maker. Good area, quiet, within walking distance of town center. Would stay again. Lee
