What I really appreciated was the Fenced-In Property for my pup and I also took advantage of the cart to carry my beach supplies to the beach, which was a short walk up the road Very nice.

Great place to stay at the beach

My family and I had a great time staying at Rosemary. The access to kayaks was a great addition. The walk to the beach wasn’t bad at all, and I loved that it was in the woods. It gives it a treehouse feel. Overall, we had a great time.

This is very dog and their owner's dream come true. Plenty of room to run around. All stairs going upstairs to your unit have preplanned gates already built in stairs for your dogs. The unit has vinyl floors throughout. As you can see this unit is very pet friendly.This unit has 4 bedrooms, and you can sleep 2 in each room plus a couch. You also have access to 2 kayaks plus chairs for beach and more. There is parking for at least 4 cars. You are only two blocks from the beech. We have stayed in other units on SGI before, but this is the BEST.Thank YouAngie

Prefect for our family

This home was a short walk to the beach and bay, which was perfect for my fishing trip. The property manager was great and even allowed us to move our vacation due to a work conflict. Home was clean and had a great yard with a fence for the dogs.

Loved it!

Was just what we were looking for..mature tree shade, seclusion, privacy, space, outdoor living, fenced yard for dog, within walking distance to both gulf side and bayside beaches. Stores and restaurants on island very reasonable. We would stay at the Rosemary again!
