Magnificent Beach Cottage
This is a perfect cottage on a quiet road that's two blocks from the beach. I'd rather stay here any day than in those new elevated houses with no charm or character on the two busy main roads. The yard and gardens around the house are lush, green and tropical with tons of shade. The porch is wonderful with the vaulted ceiling. If you're looking for a quiet private peaceful place with professional responsive hosts, you found it! Thank you for letting us stay at your house!

Great 4th of July Getaway
We had an amazing time. The hosts were super accommodating and helped with suggestions for the day it rained all day among other requests. The house is cozy, well supplied with anything you could need, and the screened in porch area is definitely a favorite during the mosquito times of day. It is like home away from home, only better because it's at the beach. We definitely will be back.

Wonderful place!
This property has great privacy and is really quiet. I would recommend renting the golf cart. It was perfect for running to the beach for sunset or going to get some ice cream. We wished we had planned to stay longer! We’ll be back!

Perfect little getaway
The house was exactly what we wanted it to be. We brought our elderly (15yo) border collie with mobility issues, and she was able to navigate the entire property with ease. We loved the secluded property with trees on all sides, and the proximity to the beach was great. We took advantage of the golf cart and used it for most of our movement around the island. It was a much better value than the rental places on the island! Inside the home, the decor was super cute. Loved the beachy accents all through the house. The kitchen had literally (as Sid said) everything but your food and drink for the week. The shower had amazing pressure and we loved the pebble floor. The bed was ACTUALLY COMFORTABLE. The icing on the cake was the screened porch. We ate dinner out there almost every night and spent every morning listening to the birds. The fans made it super pleasant. Great place to stay, great owner. Watch out for little tree frogs on the windows! They’re super cute! (We had one try to hitch a ride on our car home! lol.)

Fantastic getaway!
My adult son and I went down to kayak fish off the backside of Saint George Island. This was a perfectly clean and well maintained house in the heart of the island. Just what it showed online. The owners were fantastic and actually did some reconnaissance for our fishing trip. Will definitely come back. Thx

A Charming Cottage
This was a quiet secluded cottage not too far from the beach, well appointed and maintained. We lived on the screen porch for the most part and it was a comfortable place to read and relax. We would certainly keep it in mind for a return visit.

Tropical Affair is a perfect little cottage for myself and my best friend. The owners were super responsive when we encountered a slight problem with the lock on the door. The walk to the beach was easy. Very comfortable for a restful week! The two of us will be back when we can sneak away again!

Cozy beachy get-away
This charming beach cottage has a lot to offer from the well-equipped kitchen, attractive decor, easy beach access to the secluded and quiet privacy of its location. There is also a pleasant screened porch for relaxing and enjoying the outdoors without the bugs!Two of the best features are the wonderful owners, who live nearby and respond quickly to any concerns or questions, (not that we had any!). We would stay here again. Thank you Sidney and Joyce for helping to make our stay enjoyable and stress free.

Winter stay
Have stayed at this adorable cottage several times now and continue to go back. Hosts are extremely responsive and attentive to your needs as a guest. Weather was "freezing" but fishing was great! Internet on the island leaves a lot to be desired so, if you're looking to work while here, keep this in mind. Network kept dropping and was out continuously for about 14 hours.

Nice little place on the island
This is a very nice place on SGI. It has a nice, secluded feeling to it in a quiet area. The house has been nicely decorated with a really nice and spacious screened in porch area. It is only a couple of blocks from the beach with a direct shot to beach access parking. I will definitely look to book this property again.

Perfect Beach House with lots of Privacy
Because we were a few streets back from direct beach access, we had great privacy and a wonderful lot.
The beach itself was very quiet this time of year and having a golf cart to get from the house to the beach made everything accessible.
We love SGI and when we go back, we’ll try to get the same house in the future!!
