About the host
Hosted by Chuck Howell
My husband and I found this little gem at the SGI Chili Cookoff 2022. When we walked by and saw the for sale sign in the over grown yard, we knew this house was meant to be ours. It was in pretty bad disrepair but we just knew that we were meant to bring one of SGI's original homes back to it's initial glory. 2 months later we drove down for our closing with our 2 dogs and a mini U-Haul to get started on our little fixer upper.
But....there was a bad wreck on Highway 98 and traffic wasn't moving and according to the local sheriff, it wasn't going to move for at least another hour. We were in a pinch to get to the closing agency by 4pm. We were determined to make it to closing because if we didn't close that day, interest rates were going up. So, the sheriff told us about another route through Tate's Hell forest. Oh and did I mention it was raining and Tate's Hell is dirt roads with no road signs and no cell service so if our GPS went out, we would be, well, lost in Hell. It was a rather scary drive on thin roads with large trucks flying by and kicking up all kinds of dust, making it even harder to see. Luckily, we made it, late, but we made it and our wonderful agent waited on us. The deal closed!
To say we were excited when we pulled into the driveway is an understatement. Over the next few years we worked fixing up this beach bungalow, while stopping often to enjoy the island. We put a ton of blood, sweat and a few tears into this endeavor but seeing our before and after pictures makes it all worth it. We hope you enjoy Howl at the Sea and find a little piece of paradise and some rest and relaxation. We are so happy to share this with you.

Why they chose this property
We began looking for an investment property at the beaches close to Tallahassee where we live and after much consideration of places like Panama City and Destin, which we thought was too commercialized, busy and not super pet friendly, we then looked at Alligator Point, which we thought didn't have enough to do, so we decided St George Island was the perfect fit for us. Our kids have 4 legs and we just fell in love with the fact that our dogs were allowed on the beach (leashed of course) and even to the restaurants. Not to mention SGI is peaceful yet has many dining and entertainment options but isn't overly commercialized, keeping the quaint feeling.
What makes this property unique
We think our property stands out from many on the island because of our yard. It is large, flat, fenced and very useable. So let those pups run free and enjoy the sand between their toes too. We have taken advantage of this large yard by adding many games such as ping pong, giant jenga and connect 4, and cornhole, as well as a nice relaxing hammock under the palms and a patio bistro under string lights. We also have 2 kiddie and pet pools and a few sprinklers for even the adults to cool off with on the hot summer days. Come frolic in our backyard and get to the beach in a minute out our back gate using the beach access path.
