About this property

Perfect Couples Getaway - Canal Front Apartment

In 1957 my great-grandmother became one of five permanent residents on St. George Island. This place has been a part of our family ever since. Whether it's your first trip or you've been coming for years, I invite you to stay at Little Tradition and experience the quiet beauty of SGI. Maybe you'll make it part of your history too.

Here are the details:

Cute and colorful, ground level, dog friendly apartment in a tranquil setting. Dock and fenced yard. Queen size bed and twin size sleeper love seat. Full kitchen, washer and dryer, large shower. Charcoal park grill outdoors.

Good for a couple, but the quiet, canal location also makes it ideal for a solo traveler wanting to fish or just recharge. The beach is an easy 1/2 mile walk away. Kayaks are available and included in the fee. Several island businesses have golf carts and bikes to rent for a fun, leisurely way to get to the beach or restaurants.

I hope you enjoy this little piece of paradise!

***

My family and I no longer live upstairs but may be there visiting. Otherwise, no one should be there. If you need space for a larger group ask about renting the upstairs (sleeps 6).
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Nice little place but a couple of things that would have made out stay better. We love to cook and a Air Fryer would have been really nice. Also there was no instructions on how to operate the dish washer and the washer and dryer. Trying to figure them out was frustrating, at best. We enjoyed the dock, caught a lot of Blue Crab and that was fun. One other thing, went to wash off our car from all the sand and bugs, but thr hose was split and not usable. Overall it was a great week, but a few little extra details would have made it better. Would rent again.

Nice location on the canal. Construction going on on 2 sides of property-so no quietness, workers parking in street making it difficult to enter and exit. Basement apartment on a canal so damp, and oderous. But worst was fridge dying. ever smelt spoiled shrimp after 3 days? not nice. Host not too concerned about repairs. liked tile floors and new washer and dryer. Shower head plugged with calcium and limestone. Sparsely furnished with very worn loveseat and armed chair only. Crab Shack and dock badly in need of new lumber and repairs. will never stay again. note carefully features on VRBO because this is all thats usefull.Standard home items lacking and few. Dark because of low powered lights. You definately get what you pay for. And the Island is no longer a place for medium income folks-Everything is so high priced. Goodbye Harry A's. Road construction everywhere. Detours abound. Last go around for us!

Awesome place to stay. It’s just right for a couple and their fur baby. I enjoy coffee on the dock while watching my husband peddling to bay In his kayak to fish. We’ve stayed here 3 years in a row and hope to come back many more times.

Great stay!

This was an excellent place for my friend and me to spend a quiet Thanksgiving week! Great location and the property was just as listed. We appreciated that it was very clean overall. We especially liked that the kitchen isn't cluttered with past guests' leftovers and old packets of condiments, etc; and the bathroom doesn’t have a bunch of old, half-used soaps and shampoos, etc. It was very nice to have hotel-style toiletries and kitchen items. Both beds were comfortable and linens are nice. We would stay again.

Would book this property again!

We cannot think of anything that we did not like about this property! It was exactly like it was described; very clean and tidy; the owner thought of everything a person would need to enjoy a home away from home! It had beautiful decor! We loved the quiet location but close enough to hop in car to go to the beach or restaurants. The management was prompt to response to us which made it very helpful. St. George is a gem!! Would definitely return and book this home again! 💕

Great winter escape to Little Tradition

The location is beautiful with the dock on the canal close to the entry to the bay. Several kayaks allow padling on the bay. Good area for biking and walking. Not far from the beach. Frank and Laura were extremely flexible with us changing the dates. Frank welcomed us and showed us around. The apartment has everything a couple needs for a comfortable stay, but it is one space (not a separate bedroom), so the third adult person would not have privacy. We had a great stay and will be back.

The apartment was clean and very well stocked. I have limited mobility due to a knee injury so I purposely looked for a place with fewer steps. This was ground level and easilly accessible for me. There were 2 steps to get into the bathroom but they were easy to manage. The kitchen has lots of appliances, pots, pans, plates, cups, silverware. The linens were sufficient for two people and clean. The washer and dryer were also convenient. We went out to the dock every night at sunset and it was so beautiful. I could have stayed there forever. One word of caution, bring bug spray if you are going to the dock. The mosquitoes love it out there also. We will hopefully be coming back to this lovely place sometime in the future.

Great Stay!

We loved this spot! Loved being on the water and the apartment was cozy and clean with a comfortable bed. The dock was a favorite feature - a fantastic place to watch the sunset over the water. Our dogs also loved it and we are always so grateful for rentals that allow our furry family members! The space did have a bit of a musty scent fyi for those that are sensitive, but it didn't really bother us. We would recommend this rental and would definitely stay again!

This was everything we needed for my husband & I & our dogs. Small but sufficient. We appreciated the heaters as it was cool. Short walk to wonderful beach. We sat on the dock & my husband threw in a few fishing lines. Thank you to the owner esp. for the fenced in spot for the dogs. Pet owners who come, please clean up after your pups! Leave it nice for the next guest.
