PLEASE I WOULD APPRECIATE IT IF YOU DO NOT ALLOW PETS ON THE BEDS. It’s very difficult for our cleaning staff to keep their fur out of the sheets.

This home is very nice and the owner has it stocked with everything you might need. Being in St. George Plantation is a plus and access to their pools is great. It is a short walk through a well kept path to a level boardwalk onto the beautiful beach. The kitchen has everything you will need plus a gas stove. We appreciated the provided beach chairs. Communication with the owner was prompt and friendly. We definitely would stay here again.
Good clean accommodations, 4 minute walk to the beach via nature path. Enjoyed that there are 2 pools available in the community, the children especially liked the zero entry pool.
Great stay! Quiet and private while still having great access to all the fun things. The nature trail right outside the back door provides great access to the beach as well as the main trails. There is a nice yard space for the puppy too!
This house was exactly as described. It was exceptioonally clean, with a very nice kitchen and woderful decks on both levels. Very easy access to the beach. The week was terrific!
Excellent location and experience at this sweet home. Details were well attended- we can pack a lot less next time because the owners have thought of everything (for us and our dog)! Highly recommend!
This home had everything we needed to enjoy life at the beach for 6 weeks. Well appointed kitchen, comfortable beds, quality towels and linens, a short and scenic path to the beach. Very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. We will be back!
We loved the easy access to the beach for walking. The house was comfortable and nicely laid out for 4 adults. Our hosts were very responsive and easy to work with. Very quiet with a lovely porch swing to enjoy sunrises.
Had a great time at the beach. Great location in the plantation with excellent access to amenities and the beach. Well appointed with everything you need in fine working order.
This was our first time at SGI, and we loved it! The island is wonderful with great places to eat, lots to do, and the house was perfect. We would love to stay here again.
We repeated our stay this year for another 2 weeks. The house is well appointed with linens and towels in like new condition. My dog loves the big yard. I did wipe down the kitchen when we arrived. The views from the upstairs master are great. My husband really enjoyed the screen porch. I would suggest adding bath mats in the bathrooms and some additional large size mugs.
Two of my best friends and I spent five nights at this beautiful property. It was perfect for us. The location was so private, and the walk to the beach is quick and easy. I definitely recommend gojng in
Great outdoor spaces, especially the decks and extras for the beach provided. Easy walk to the beach. Great kitchen amenities. Very comfortable beds and furniture. We would stay here again.
Very nice house! Nice neighborhood! Very close walk to the beach which we loved because we mostly stayed at the beach. Very nice hostess! We would stay again!

Thank you for your review. We would welcome you back any time.
Thank you for a wonderful stay! The house was absolutely perfect for my wife, my son, and I. The house was immaculately clean and well-appointed, and as a rarity on the island, not too big. The beds were very comfortable. We loved the short 2-3 minute walk to the beach, and from there a short 20 minute stroll to the jetty or the pool. (or a two-minute car ride). The beach chairs and the beach cart were a huge bonus. Thank you, we plan to be back!

Thank you so much for your kind words and wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you, your wife, and your son had such a great stay. It’s fantastic to know the house met your expectations with its cleanliness, comfort, and perfect size. We’re glad the short walk to the beach and the provided beach chairs and cart added to your enjoyment. We’d love to welcome you back next time—safe travels until then!
We had a very enjoyable stay at Argonauta in the Plantation on St. George Island. The lush native vegetation around the property really stood out. It provided a welcome sense of privacy and made the setting feel peaceful and natural.One of our favorite features was the short walk along the nature path to the beach. It made access easy and added to the overall charm of the location. We also made great use of the screened porch, which was a lovely spot for meals and relaxing.Inside, the home is simply and tastefully decorated, creating a comfortable and uncluttered space to unwind. We appreciated the thoughtful touches throughout, including dish soap, dishwasher and laundry pods, tissues, liquid soap, dog waste bags, and a small selection of candy.There were plenty of towels, along with brand new beach chairs. The beach cart, additional chairs, umbrella, and toys were all very convenient and made beach outings easy to enjoy.Overall, the home was comfortable for the two of us and our two Weimaraners, and the natural setting and beach access were highlights of our stay.
Great house in an excellent location. Privacy and quiet away from the hubub of town; walk to beach in 2min. Furniture and bedding was clean, comfortable, and well appointed. Host was incredibly easy and prompt in communication. Highly recommend!
