About lynn Johnson
We live in John Creek Georgia, a suburb of North Atlanta. We love St George Island and Apalachicola-It is not like Destin, but we find so many fun things to do-usually a week is not enough for us! But we have to plan early because OUR Wonderful Guests always beat us to the punch! We enjoy our guests, they become our friends and many of you stay in touch. Give us a try, we hope you fall in love with the Forgotten Coast, the people, and the beautiful surroundings.
lynn Johnson purchased this House in 2010
Why lynn Johnson chose East End
Growing up on the Georgia coast, a beach town was not a place with resorts and high rise condos. It was a place where you could hop on your bike and not worry about traffic. We spent many years exploring coastal towns from Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, and even California. Our current home is in the Metro Atlanta area, we were looking for a quiet place to get away. The late Celestine Sibley, a long time Writer for the Atlanta Journal Constitution, on occasion would write of her Travels to her 2nd Home on Dog Island, in the Gulf of Mexico. Her writings intrigued us and that is how we found The Forgotten Coast. Finally a place to getaway, to leave your worries behind, and at one time, a place where our cell phones could not get a signal. How great was that!
What makes this House unique
Beautiful, Quiet Beaches. Nature abounds. Get out and take day trips to surrounding areas and small towns. Fish, cook fresh seafood, take a walk or a bike ride on the islands paved bike path. Climb the Cape St George Lighthouse and others in the surrounding area. Visit the Park on the far east end of the island for seashells, fishing, or a picnic. Best restaurants are in Apalachicola. But a trip to the Indian Pass Raw Bar MUST be scheduled in-

Thank you so much for taking time to review Little Palm and your family's stay on SGI. So glad you enjoyed your stay and hope you liked the screened in porch that was added. We thank you for staying with us and hope you will return again and again. Have a great rest of Summer! Hope to see you in 2017! Lynn and David Johnson Johns Creek GA
Little Palm is a great beach house!
We hadn't been to St. George Island for 20 years...
Wonderdul memories
The Perfect Beachhouse
Wonderful place to relax!
Location
No high rise multifamily buildings to block your views, No traffic jams. Truly a place to get away from it all. Various festivals throughout the year, St. George Island and Apalachicola have year round interests. The National Trust for Historic Preservation named Apalachicola as a Distinctive Destination. Beautiful Historic Homes and a true working waterfront are the reasons for this designation. Great Restaurants, Interesting Gift Shops and Art Galleries will keep you busy. Activities for all ages-Camps, Eco Tours, Kayaking, Deep or Bay Fishing, or just read a good book. Lots of small towns for day trips or visit any of the nearby State or National Parks. Excellent restaurants-Owl Cafe, Tamara's, That Place on In Apalach, Magnolia Grill, The Grill, Papa Joe's, Boss Oyster, Verandas, Cafe Leche, BJs Pizza & Subs, The Blue Parrot(beachfront), The Hut, The Indian Pass Raw Bar....
