Old friends catching up

This was a lovely place and so convenient to things on the island. Could have used a couple more chairs on the porch. We had a great time and we would rent this place again. Thanks

Get away

Had a great time. Location was perfect and house was clean. It is a little older home and could use a few updates but was perfect for myself and my husband.

Great location - house needs some work

The location cannot be beat. On the beach! Walkable to everything St. George has to offer. We loved the location of the home. The house itself feels like it needs a facelift - new showers, appliances, one of the beds. The property manager was very easy to work with. I feel the price fairly reflects what you get with this property. We would not rent again.

Spring Breaker

Even during spring break season the beach still had that private beach feeling!! We love SGI overall but I would not recommend for teenagers who need more to do than renting golf carts. We try to keep SGI a secret from our coworkers, lol. Will be a yearly trip

Like having your own private beach!

Direct access to the beach and no crowds to deal with. Found what we needed in the kitchen. I would stay there again.

Loved It

This property is right on the beach. The view of the ocean from the living room and sitting on the balcony watching the sunrise was refreshing. We found everything to be just as advertised or better.

Nice place, GREAT view

The views are nothing short of amazing. Very short walk to the sand. Plenty of cookware, silverware and small appliances. After a week of being there though, I am exhausted from climbing stairs.

Wonderful beach experience

The house has all you need for a relaxing time at the beach. The porch is a great place to enjoy the ocean view and sun. The bedroom is great and the kitchen well equipped.

Happy Days

We absolutely loved the proximity to the beach. St. George Island provides a beautiful peaceful experience in November. The house has the wear and tear that you would expect from being right on the ocean but was what we were looking for with our group.

Right on the beach!

Location, location, location. Right on the beach. With a wonderful panoramic view from balconies on two levels. The house was spotless and the interior decor and furnishings far superior to any of the other homes we checked out. Comfortable beds, good linens, clean, well stocked kitchen (appliances and cookware only -- absolutely no food supplies, not even salt and pepper or aluminum foil). The only drawback was how close you are to neighbors in the rentals on both sides. If they're loud or leave lights blazing all nigh in violation of local ordinances, it really does make the experience a whole lot less pleasant.

our stay at Happy Days

We just spent a week at this house and we enjoyed or visit. The location is very convenient to the beach and to island retail. We foujnd the house nice and clean but it is definitely in need of a refresh of finishes. The hardwood floor on the main level needs refinishing, many of the windows have insulated glass with broken seals so they are cloudy, most of the windoews don't have screens in them and we were there when the weather was great for opening up windows. The kitchen is not very well equiped and there is not a single sharp knife to be found. The king size bed in the main bedroom is very comfortable.

Just OK

Management did not maintain outside or inside. Trash (ice bags and beer can) outside property. Master bath had mold that can not be treated with bleach. Would need to be re-caulked. Shower curtain was nasty. Master bath was tiny and both full baths were dated. While inside was decorated nicely, the home smelled musty. This property is for sale. The owner should have management address these issues as well as the gable at the back of the home. The driveway was full of weeds and home did not look inviting. We won't be back.

Great location but needs maintenance

This house is in a great location and we really enjoyed the short walk to beach and minimal crowd with room to set up. It was also close to the restaurants and shopping. The house itself is just ok. It was not cleaned very well with sand still on floors. The downstairs bathroom shower doesn’t drain so you stand in dirty water and takes over 15 mins to drain so next person has to wait as well. Neither tv worked downstairs. However the main turn off for our family is that we cook at the house every night and Almost every dish we pulled from the kitchen was dirty, some even still had food on. We also had a pipe burst (late at night) and it was not a great experience getting someone to the house to fix. We ended up fixing ourselves and they finally showed and said would come back next day with parts and never came the final two days we were there. While it did the job as far as staying in the beach, we won’t be visiting again. Some routine maintenance and updates would go a long way for your visitors.
