Sapelo is a true escape
While it is a remote island with beaches, Sapelo isn't a spa or resort. Get ready to slow down your pace, to forget about appointments or reservations, to plan your day around tides and sun instead of the clock. There are dirt roads that go on for miles (restricted to walking or bicycle only) and remains of settlements that were populated 4,000 or more years ago. Amazing. No condos, no beach cottages. On two trips to one many mile long beach, we saw nobody. Not one soul. Our hosts were friendly and knowledgeable. Don't expect amenities except solitude, privacy and completely unspoiled terrain as it was before Europeans arrived.
Wonderful time on beautiful Sapelo!
My family had a blast on this vacation. It felt like an adventure back in time of simpler days gone by. The car given for our use was perfect for the occasion and fun to drive. We enjoyed being both Cabretta beach as well as Nannie Goat many times during our stay. Mike was a wonderful tour guide of the North side and we saw many sites we wouldn’t have otherwise. He is full of knowledge and fun stories of his adventures on Dialin’. 🙂 (his book) Also, I highly encourage you to reserve a delicious meal by any of the amazing cooks that live on Sapelo! We used them all and I can vouch, they are all fantastic cooks. The whole adventure was a treat for the family! Thank you so much Mike and Lucy
After second trip, we can't wait for the third.
Can't say enough good things about this place. It's like staying with family. If you want a place full of nature and scenery, this is the place. The peaceful laid back atmosphere on the island is unmatched.
Wonderful stay on Sapelo!
We had a lovely stay - thank you so much Lucy & Mike!!!
Very comfortable stay
Very friendly and accommodating hosts. Will definitely be back!
Map
My Sapelo Retreat is on Sapelo Island which is 4 1/2 mi. from the mainland. On the Island there is only 1 small convenience store and a post office. Several of the things I have commented on are in the historic fishing village of Darien, a frequent overnight before the trip over to Sapelo. The restaurants I've commented on are in Darien and there is a fine gourmet wine and cheese store and wine bar there, Waterfront Wine and Gourmet on the waterfront on Broad Street. Some types of activities require hiring a guide, deep sea fishing, kayaking, scuba diving but I can connect you with the folks who do those things. Just ask! I'll be glad to answer your questions.
