Sunset Retreat - 2 Bedroom, 2 Bath Bayfront home with private pool & Hot Tub

This beautiful bayfront home has many things to offer. It has wonderful open views of the bay and is truly a "sunset retreat". The sunset at this home is like no other! View from the spacious deck or from the private pool or hot tub. Any way you like, you will be amazed and simply fall in love with this home!

The home accommodates 6 people.

The floor plan is open and spacious. WiFi throughout the home. It is a very roomy 2 bedroom, 2 bath. Bedroom one has a king bed with master bath that includes a walk in shower. Bedroom two has a set of twin bunk beds and a queen bed with the second bathroom right outside the bedroom door.

The kitchen has been fully renovated with stainless appliances and is fully stocked with anything you should need for your stay. Plenty of utensils, pots, pans, a Keurig, a regular coffee pot, baking pans and more.

There is a private dock you can tie your boat to if needed. The dock has a fish cleaning sink and electricity as well as a bench for fishing from the dock or just relaxing by the water!

Under the house is a game room with a full size pool table, a picnic table, hot tub and outdoor shower. There are also bikes in the game room area for your use. The backyard is fully fenced for your furry friends.

Sunset Retreat is only minutes from local restaurants and shopping and beach access is only a couple blocks away.

We enjoyed the beautiful sunsets, the pool, and fishing from dock and all the extras this house offered! Loved that it was pet friendly! We’ve been to SGI many times but never end stayed on the bay before and this was a nice surprise and very relaxing! Only went to the beach twice since the house had so much to offer.

Dirty!!! But decent.
After we cleaned the house it was more comfortable. Quiet location. Beautiful sunsets. Nice pier Hot tub has been neglected for a LONG time. We added water (H2O was below filters) added chemicals and scrubbed the scum line. Filters need replaced unfortunately we only rented this place because of the hot tub and sunsets. Comfy couch and beds. Great TV. Great kitchen fully stocked. The potential is there to have a truly wonderful rental but the cleaning crew needs replaced and the amenities need better maintenance.

We totally enjoyed our stay. We enjoyed the beautiful sunset view from the back porch. We wish it wasn't as cold ( it was in the 30's at night ) but we still had a wonderful time. We are looking forward to returning in the spring.

Sunset Retreat (a little piece of paradise!)
Our stay was wonderful and relaxing thanks to the host supplying all the comforts of home. So quiet and peaceful with amazing views. Even our dogs felt right at home - thank you so much for allowing us to include them on our vacation. We only wish this place was closer to home so we could come visit more often!

Very Relaxing Vacation
You can't go wrong staying here. For the most part, this is a great property. Heather is easy to communicate with and is very responsive. There are a few things that need attention and hopefully after the summer rental season, they will be taken care of. Those things are the tiles in the main living/kitchen area are loose in places and 1 of them is cracked and the sink's faucet on the dock is plugged up such that the water pressure is only suitable for washing your hands. The sprayer doesn't work, so cleaning up is very difficult. I had to bring a bucket of fresh water out there to clean up. As for fishing off the dock, the fishing is good but don't fish straight out because boats come zooming by close in and will snag your line. Ask me how I know. The only safe way to fish is off to the side away from the bay (left as you walk out). Even then, be watchful and don't cast beyond the white stake. Fishing like that, I was able to catch 3 keeper sized reds and a few trout. I also caught 2 reds that were too big to keep and 2 sea monster sized reds I couldn't get all the way in. I used a carolina rig and finger mullet steaks on a 1/0 hook, if that helps at all.

Quite bliss
House is as described. It was very clean and well furnished with everything you could need. The king size bed was very comfortable. A great area, perfect for sunsets, watching the boats coming in and out and dolphin watching. The dock was great for fishing from. There was new house construction happening next door but they were very respectful and quite when they could be. The only glitch was a water leak at the meter so we were without water for about 8-10 hours but it was fixed the same day. Communication with Heather was quick and easy. A very relaxing vacation.

Dolphins Galore!
Amazing. The house was clean and exactly as described. We loved jumping off of the dock, playing corn hole and pool, paddle boarding on the bay and watching the dolphins come right up to the dock. The view reminded me of a corona commercial! Very quiet and relaxing. Cannot wait to go back!

Spring Break
We had an excellent time at this location. The listing is very accurate and has all the accomodations one could possibly need for a relaxing stay at St.George Island. The kids fished off the dock every single day, even in bad weather. We also enjoyed the use of the bikes to explore the island . We are looking forward to a return soon!

Great place
Loved the location. We were there to fish and this allowed us to fish off dock, walk to surf, and take a 10 minute drive to launch our kayaks at the state park. My only criticism-and this is really minor- was the TV. We weren't able to connect to anything but a few stations and could not log into Netflix to watch any movie. We didn't try very hard and never asked the property manager to remedy, so it wasn't a case of lack of response on their part. Kitchen was VERY well equipped too!

Fantastic
The owners of this property have thought of everything. Right on the bay with unobstructed amazing sunset views. This property is great for small families with four legged friends. Close to everything that is St. George Island. The property next door was under construction but they weren't working during the holiday season. If you want tranquility with all the amenities, this place is for you. We had a slight problem when the pipes froze in unusually cold weather. Heather was immediately responsive and it certainly was a rare cold snap for Florida. Can't recommend this place enough.

Incredible Sunset View and Dock
This home was the perfect place for our multi-generation vacation. When you walk in the door, the view is breathtaking! Spend every evening on the deck watching the sunset! We enjoyed fishing off the dock and jumped in the pool a time or two. It is easily accessible to the main area of town and a quick hop and skip to Eastpoint and Appalachicola. The property manager quickly corrected an issue with some missed housekeeping items. That was the only downside of the entire trip! Seriously, the sunset and dock makeup for any of that!
