About this property
Deepwater retreat with dock and unobstructed views of the North Newport River!
Welcome to our exquisite home listing, where you'll discover our hidden gem nestled on picturesque Colonels Island in Georgia. Behold a truly captivating experience as we introduce you to a stunning 3-bedroom elevated house with a private dock, poised on the bank of the North Newport River.
You will be enchanted by the serene beauty and tranquility that this exclusive rental offers. Set amidst the lush, natural landscapes and spartina of Colonels Island, this vacation home promises an escape from the ordinary and a journey into relaxation and rejuvenation. As you approach, the elevated design of the house not only provides breathtaking unobstructed panoramic views but also ensures your privacy and a sense of being at one with the river.
Step inside, and you'll immediately be struck by the warmth and sophistication of the interiors. The spacious living area beckons with its tasteful furnishings, combining modern comforts with coastal charm. Natural light pours in through large windows, illuminating the decor that perfectly reflects the surrounding environment.
The heart of the house is undoubtedly the fully equipped kitchen, where culinary delights are effortlessly prepared while guests gather around and take in the breathtaking view. Granite countertops, premium appliances, and ample storage space cater to the needs of both aspiring chefs and those simply seeking to whip up some sides to go with burgers cooked on the outdoor charcoal grill.
As the day draws to a close, the three thoughtfully furnished bedrooms invite you to unwind and embrace the comfort of luxury bedding and flat screen TVs. Each room boasts its own unique character, embodying coastal aesthetics and ensuring a restful night's sleep. The master includes gorgeous river views, a King size bed, and ensuite bath with a walk in shower, while the guest rooms located at the front of the house are furnished with a single queen in one and two full size beds in the other.
But the true allure of this rental lies outdoors, where the private dock extends an invitation to explore the natural wonders of the North Newport River, Sapelo Sound, and St Catherines Island. Whether your catch comes after a trip to the gulfstream, your favorite redfish hole, or right off the dock you will enjoy the convenience of the built in fish cleaning station and the shade provided by the roof overhead. Whether you're a fan of fishing, boating, or simply enjoying the gentle sway of the water with a cocktail, the dock provides a front-row seat to unforgettable sunsets and the soothing symphony of dolphins playing.
As the sun rises over Colonels Island, your mornings are destined to be tranquil and invigorating. Sip your coffee on the deck in a rocker while soaking in the breathtaking views, or take a leisurely stroll down to the Half Moon Marina and store.
Your pets will enjoy their vacation as much as you with over an acre of fenced in yard to play and a dog door to ensure they can easily come and go of their own volition.
Conveniently located golf cart distance from Half Moon Marina and fishing Club, and a short drive from historic Ft Morris, Sunbury Crab Company, and Dorchester Shooting Preserve you won't have to leave the island. However, if you choose to make a day trip we are perfectly located 45 minutes from Savannah and an hour from Brunswick and the Golden Isles.
Whether you're seeking a romantic getaway, a family adventure, or a peaceful retreat, this 3-bedroom elevated house with its own private dock promises an unparalleled experience on Colonels Island, Georgia. Book your stay today and immerse yourself in the beauty, comfort, and serenity that define this exceptional vacation rental. Your journey into coastal paradise awaits.
Additionally, we are now able to arrange single or multi day boat and jet ski rentals delivered right to the dock through our exclusive partnership with a local rental business. Please inquire when making your reservation for more information.
