I surprised my wife and took her their for her 50th birthday and the views were amazing. We loved the house and the area was quaint. It was a great time and peaceful! Only down side was not being able to check in that much earlier.
This was the only house I could find for our dates in July so went in knowing there were some issues but reserved it anyway.
I would say thereâs lots to love/hate about this place-
Loved -
Large home
On the bay
Fantastic views
Spotless inside
Kayak launch 2 doors down
Fish were biting
Hated -
No useable deck furniture (no cushions)
Jacuzzi dirty/not serviced
Fish-cleaning sink outside full of trash
No bath mats
Very minimal kitchen provisions
Outdated furniture and no dresser in primary bedroom
No dock ladder so not useable by boat
This house is not rented by owner. Itâs managed by a vacation rental business and has obviously not been used by the owners in many years.
A simple maintenance punch list might include-
Replace burned out light bulbs
Fix broken blinds
Fix broken door locks
Repair damaged ceilings - level 3
Bathrooms on levels 2,3,4 are all wheelchair accessible but elevator is non-functional.
A tiny, but telling, little thing is that the guest book ran out of pages in 2021 and has never been replaced or removed.
Would love to see this house transformed with a little TLC. Maybe the owners are ready to sell?
St. George Island is worth the trip no matter where you stay!
First of all I want to say this house was clean and has amazing sunset views. Those were the two best things about it. Unfortunately this house is not stocked with much at all. If you need it, you should bring it with you. It also has LOTS of stairs so it is not well suited for small children or anyone who may struggle with stairs. It has an elevator but I guess the owner does not want guests using it. We had to carry everything up 2 & 3 flights of stairs. The furniture (beds & sofa specifically) are very uncomfortable & the sofa smelled awful. The small deck/porch areas on each floor were not at all inviting or comfortable as the only seating was 3 lounge chairs that were not very comfortable. The hot tub had just been cleaned (the guy who cleaned it was leaving as we were arriving) and it was nice.
