Owner info
Year Purchased: 2003
About the owner: In 1994 we bought our first St George island beach house ... As the children grew, we spent school breaks and every chance we had to be on St. George Island ... We found a jewel of an island where we could explore the great out doors. A place where we could bring our children and dogs without the pressures and noise of over populated beaches or strict regulations. I was raised in Florida and prefer St George Island over all the other Florida beaches. Not too big and not too small. Just right. As our family grew more than three times in size, we knew we needed a lot more room. As good timing would have it we found and bought An Angel's Dream. The private pool at An Angel's Dream is where many of our grandchildren have learned to swim. We especially enjoy the heated pool during the Spring and Fall when days are warm but the nights are crisp. When we want to be on the water, we kayak, swim or spend the Day on our sail boat. (You can rent all sorts of water craft at Journeys and other places)( they also have guided sailing and fishing trips and much more) At night we often take turns cooking, watch a family movie, swim, play board games or work on a puzzle. We like to sit outside on the top deck or walk the beach and watch for shooting stars or just listen to the night sounds. August and September have the most amazing and plentiful shooting star sightings! We enjoy riding our bikes nearly every day. We recently added 3 more miles of bike paths in the Plantation and more to come. I have no idea the total miles of bike paths on the Island but you can ride all the way to the East end into the St George Island State Park.... Visit the Lighthouse and Keepers House & Museum ( closed on Thursdays) but any other day its worth the climb! If you are lucky enough buy the Full Moon tickets Limited visitors. We hope you enjoy staying at our home and the Island as much as we do and please return to visit An Angel's Dream again and agai
Why the Owner Chose Plantation, St. George Island, FL, USA:
We love this open house and It's private location to the beach. There is no one in your space... And it's a plus to be right on the short beach path. No streets to cross...and No way to get lost.
We have a beach/fishing cart easily carries everything needed plus a holder for the umbrella....When we come back from the beach, the swimming pool and comfort of the house is there waiting with open arms.
There's lots of room to nap on a couch or a lounge chair or dive into the sweet water of the pool.
We loved the colorful tile and views from the great room and the fact that our large family has plenty of room to spread out yet be close together...for games, puzzles and a great mov
The swimming pool can be heated and for me being a creature of comfort, that's a plus. I also love swimming at night with the pool heat on.
We use the large screened room under the house that can be a dinning room or a room to play cards, board games etc.
The Plantation it self is a nature wonderland for those who love to explore the outdoors.
The island has no big chain stores but there is a very good but small grocery market in the gas station.
The Plantation beach is unspoiled, clean and is a quiet family beach... The wild life and fishing is simply amazing.
In the Summer we have had the wonderful experience of witnessing turtles lay their eggs on the beach and dozens of other incredible encounters with dolphin and other wild life... In the Spring we've seen schools of Dolphins swimming in the thousands, "as far as my eyes could see"... Most any time of the year schools of the beautiful Leopard Manta Ray. Late Summer and Fall the amazing site of watching Dolphins play ball with the cannonball jelly fish (no they don't sting) but they are a wonderful food source, high in protein.
You won't believe the number of different types birds, butterfly we see on a daily basis.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
The covered porch is very large and comfortable. It's easy to take a nap, read a book or dine outdoors.
Our grand kids learned to swim in Angel's pool and its so easy to keep an eye on them from any level of the house.
The house and beach is a great place for our children and grandchildren to be free of the rigors of school and work.
This is the place where we can reconnect with the simple life and explore nature... Build sand castles, play board games and gather in the kitchen...
St George Island Plantation has miles and miles of bike paths, 3 tennis courts, an awesome club house and a super club house & pool. (More bike paths are to come )
