Kitchen nicely equipped for cooking. Laundry is on the main floor. There was an intermittent beeping from the dryer so we had to pull out the stackable unit to unplug it when we weren’t using it. We contacted the manager and also left a note so hopefully this little annoyance was fixed.
Two kids (4,7) and two parents very much enjoyed the quick (1 min) easy access to a pool and the beach at this property. Taking advantage of beach rental equipment was very easy (would recommend renting a cart to get items to the beach). Would stay again.
the unit is steps from the beach... great deck with a view of the ocean so a great spot for morning coffee and an afternoon cocktail. We had a great stay.

I always vacation on St George for my birthday and thoroughly enjoyed my stay. I have used Forgotten Shores to book my stay the past few years and they have always been so helpful and kind. The condo was well stocked and so homey and had everything I needed for my week. Will definitely be back!

Reviewer Comments:
Unit was very clean. Great support from Forgotten Shores Properties. Made one phone call on a minor issue and it was resolved very quickly.
I never knew this place existed until I came across it on an Instagram reel talk about a sleepy, quiet beach town, which is exactly what I was looking for. The condo was great. swimming pool was super spotless and crystal clear and only about a 200 foot walk to the beach, which is not heavily populated with visitors we saw a sea turtles laying eggs, crabs all along the shoreline. Water was clean no seaweed overall great experience management company actually let me check in about an hour early because I was coming from such a far distance. Lighthouse tour was very cool too.
Loved the condo and location near state park. But the bed was too soft, so unlikely to stay here again unless it is replaced with a firmer mattress.

Thanks for the heads up, Nancy. We purchased a new manual can opener to replace the old one. Sorry for the trouble but we hope you found the electric can opener in the cabinet ; )
Love ocean mile! We have stayed there three times now but as we get older we have a hard time with the stairs.

We were celebrating our 50th Anniversary! We had never been to St George! We absolutely loved our stay!! Our townhouse was cheerful, clean, and comfortable! We loved the pool and just a minute walk to the beach!! We could sit on our back porch and see and listen to the ocean!!Our bed was so comfortable! And that was very important to us!!Highly recommend Forgotten rental properties.

Unit was as advertised. No surprises which is always a plus! Good View of pool and ocean. Rental agency responsive and followed up to make sure everything was ok after our arrival. Great stay!
We had a wonderful time! Everything was great. But we did not get our $50 gift certificate.

We're glad you enjoyed your visit Glenda, and it was great to work with you both! I regret that you didn't mention the gift certificate during your stay : ( Since you arrived early and checked-in without calling ahead, we did not have an opportunity to inspect the property and place the certificate inside, so the gift certificate was left outside the door. I'm sorry you were not able to utilize this, but when you're ready to return, we'll have another waiting and to the restaurant of your choice! See you soon!

Fun in the Sun
Great property with everything you need for a great week at the beach. It was an added bonus to have the beach chairs and towel provided. It made for an easy trip and a lot less to worry about. The views were also great, as we could see the water from the table on the porch. We could not have asked for a better experience.

Rest and relaxation
My Hideaway provided a quiet, relaxing environment for my boyfriend and me to get out of the hustle and bustle of the city for a while. It was clean and well cared for and the beach was maybe a one minute walk. I've already recommended My Hideaway to family and friends and hope to revisit it again. Thank you to Jamie for helping make it possible.
