2BR/2BA Beach Cottage inside Plantation, Sleeps up to 8, Pet Friendly!

FREE Beach Gear! Guests of this home will enjoy a complimentary beach gear credit toward items such as bicycles, kayaks, beach umbrellas and more!

Welcome to "Finally"! This quintessential beach cottage offers 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and can accommodate up to 8 total guests. 1 small dog under 30lb will be considered for an additional fee.

The open living space features a large great room with vaulted ceiling, large, flat screen TV and DVD/VHS player and Queen size sleeper sofa. For your entertainment, we have a collection of movies and a book library for those lazy afternoon beach reads.

The dining area can accommodate up to 8, with 4-5 at the dining table and an additional 3 at the breakfast bar. If you prefer to dine in the lush vegetation, a dining table for 4 is available on our covered deck.

The kitchen is well-equipped with all basic appliances and everything you may need to prepare your St. George Island catch of the day. A separate laundry room with full size washer/dryer is located just past the kitchen.

The first of the 2 bedrooms is our King bedroom. This oversized master bedroom is light and airy with a sofa, flat screen TV, DVD player and access to the covered deck. The private bathroom has a separate vanity area, walk-in closet and shower stall with hand-held shower head.

The second bedroom is located on the opposite end of the home and offers a Queen size bed, a Queen sleeper sofa, flat screen TV and VHS player and access to the covered deck. The adjoining bathroom also has a separate vanity area and a combination tub/shower.

The covered deck is a great spot to relax in the shade or you may decide to lay in the sun on the furnished widow’s walk with peek-a-boo views of the Gulf of Mexico.

Nestled in a wooded ½ acre lot, ‘Finally’ offers privacy and seclusion surrounded by natural vegetation. Beach access is just a 4 minute walk via the nature path or a 5 minute stroll along the residential streets of the St. George Plantation community.

Outdoor amenities include an enclosed hot/cold outdoor shower, park-style charcoal grill, picnic table and covered parking. If you have younger children, underneath the home offers a large, shaded concrete pad--a great place to escape the sun on those hot summer days with little ones who just want to be outside to play, the perfect space for riding toys!

And as a guest in the prestigious St. George Island Plantation community, you will have access to the many amenities which include the state-of-the-art Plantation Clubhouse, 2 community pools, tennis and pickleball courts and the fitness center. You also have access to Bob Sike's Cut where you can fish from the jetties or photograph some of the most amazing sunsets. And then there are the miles of bike path that extend the length of the Plantation, a great and memorable way to explore the area and become familiar with our forgotten paradise.

Beds: 1 King, 1 Queen, 2 Queen sleeper sofas

Our home requires a Sunday turn day in Spring Break and Summer seasons

Love the Plantation!!
It was ideal being in the Plantation. We played pickleball, tennis, rode bikes. Will stay there again. The outdoor shower was a wonderful addition. Definitely use your rental credit for bikes and a cart! Made it so easy to get to and from the beach boardwalk. Dishes had been put away dirty and the ice tray had been empty. No ice trays so we had to wait a long while for the machine to start making ice again. More than normal amount of clean up required for checkout. They ask that beds and linens be stripped and that all dishes are washed, dried and put away. Timing that with a 10 am checkout is not easy and added stress, especially bc we needed to eat before we left. Also explains dishes being put away dirty. Overall, great place and wonderful time.

Perfect place for just the two of us
Not sure where to start...great location with a Gulf view, beautiful deck and widow's walk, great living room and beautiful, spacious kitchen and laundry area and the beds were super comfortable. We walked to the beach access most days (not even 5 minutes) and rode bikes, sat waterside for hours. It was incredibly peaceful. We loved being so close to the water without paying front tier prices not to mention alot less wind than beachfront but you could still see AND hear the waves from the deck and widow's walk. Plus, with just the two us and not wanting the condo experience, it isn't always easy finding a house that's just the right size. This house fit the bill. We ventured out, here and there, to grab some things from the market but there restaurants and bars you can go to if you get cabin fever. We've had many a fun night at Harry A's and good eats at BJs Pizza. The island has so much to offer. But again, this trip, we stayed close to home which was the best place to be. I also need to commend Jamie and the rental/management company. They were friendly and quickly responded to any questions I had. The house is beautiful and you can't beat the location; it's definitely where you want to be if you're looking for tranquility and a restorative getaway. We'll be back.

Perfect !
Such a sweet property !! Spotlessly clean upon our arrival. Loved the layout - open with high ceilings and master suites on both end. The 3/4 covered porch around the home was a real highlight for us. We loved sitting outside n the deck in the evenings , where we could see and hear the ocean easily. The privacy of the property was ideal for us. We would love to come back. Always love the Plantation - so quiet we could hear a pin drop at night. Finally was just the right place for us at the right time !

Our stay.
A beautiful beach home. The only complaints are, there were insects throughout the house and saw roaches in the kitchen. Also, for our stay of 5 days…we were limited towels and wash clothes. True we had a washer and dryer.

Two thumbs up
Firstly a big thanks to Jamie the property manager, so helpful, responsive and thoughtful. The house was perfect for our needs and we enjoyed staying in the plantation. Amenities are great & close by. If you love to cook, we appreciated having every gadget or utensil needed in the kitchen. I would recommend a lot of bug spray, the mosquitos are everywhere and a trip to Doug’s fish truck, superb fresh fish and seafood.

Great house for family vacation.
The house was very clean and actually more updated than the pictures online. Kitchen is up to date with new appliances and new flooring throughout. The layout was great for our family of five. Plenty of room for the three kids in one bedroom (bed plus pullout couch). Short distance to beach and pool. We rented bikes through VayK. They were a great addition as the bike trails are great for cruising. The kids are already asking when we can go back.
