A sweeping stairway takes you to the main level of this thoughtfully furnished beach retreat. The large, covered deck space is the perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee as you watch the sun rise over the Gulf. Ocean views and the soothing sound of the sea lull your senses as you relax into the comfortable outdoor seating.
When you’re not at the beach, you can enjoy a family movie on the large, flat screen TV with Blu-ray player or lounge comfortably with a book or indulge in a board game or puzzle. The restful and beautifully furnished living room shares a gas fireplace with the dining space that seats up to 6, and the bright and airy kitchen offers additional seating at the breakfast bar. Our well-equipped kitchen with brand-new stainless steel appliances has room for multiple cooks and one can easily access the covered deck from here. Panoramic window views of the Gulf greet you in every room of this shared living space.
A split bedroom floor plan allows for the utmost of privacy and relaxation in the evenings. The master bedroom is located just off of the living room and boasts a King-sized four-poster bed with swivel rocker, flat screen TV, a private bathroom and access to a screened porch. The spacious master bath has a vanity space, large walk-in closet, soaker bathtub and separate tiled shower. The screened porch overlooks the driveway and pool area, and is a great spot for an outdoor card game or meal or to watch the colors of the changing sky at sunset.
On the opposite end of the home is a private Queen bedroom with view of the pool area, hall bathroom with combination tub/shower and laundry room with front-loading, full size washer and dryer.
A ground level bonus room offers a studio layout or “mother-in-law suite” with an additional living space with TV and Bluray player and half bath. This area has a private entrance and ground level deck space, there is no interior stairwell connecting this room with the upstairs of the home. Sleeping accommodations include a King sized bed and Queen sleeper sofa. A convenient morning kitchen offers plenty of counter space, mini-fridge, microwave, double sink and standard coffee maker. The full bath is located just off of the kitchen space and is accessible from the pool area as well. This is a great room for teenagers who need their own space!
Enjoy your own private swimming pool with ample deck and lounge space and hot/cold outdoor shower. The pool deck area offers a propane grill, with an additional park-style charcoal grill at the entrance of the home. A fish cleaning table is available just outside of the pool deck.
Situated on a corner lot, beach access via a community beach boardwalk is just a short and easy stroll from the property. Our home is also located just across from the paved bike path, for easy access to the Island center. We are also located about 3 blocks from the public East Hole access to the Apalachicola Bay. This is a great place to walk the dogs and explore the bayside of the Island. Up to 2 dogs 50lbs or less are allowed with advance approval, for a $200 + tax pet fee.
We look forward to hosting your family during your next beach getaway. Come and see why The Stork Nest delivers!

Another absolutely beautiful stay in a beautiful home in a beautiful place!!!
Very nice well decorated house. Being on main island road was a bit noisy at times. A lot of steps to negotiate. Would have been extremely helpful if the baggage lift was not locked out to guests. Microwave turntable was broken, the detergent door on dishwasher was broken, and only one of the two burners on gas grill worked. However kitchen was well appointed with various appliances and plenty of dishes and utensils.
We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful home. They had everything we could possibly need. We were just a short walk to the Gulf and the pool was wonderful. We would love to come back next Easter!!
We thoroughly enjoyed staying here for our annual family vacation! We’ve been coming to St. George Island for 26 years now and this house is easily one of our favorites. The house is located with easy access to the beach and the pool area is like a private oasis for when the beach gets too crowded or hot. The house is decorated beautifully on both levels and it is equipped with everything you could possibly need. We look forward to staying here again!
We really liked the house and area but the pool was too small

Thanks Lisa! We would be happy to host you and your family again!
We enjoyed our 3 weeks at the Storks Nest. Owners are friendly and the management company was very responsive (the wifi dropped once during our stay but they got it up again within an hour). There are a few repairs needed that they will be addressing but nothing that impacted our great stay.
Perfect location, great property, highly recommend
This is a wonderful property, with a nice private apartment on the lower level if that’s what you need. Built-in privacy for the special guest. The wraparound balcony was incredible. Unfortunately they do not allow access to the elevator. Conveniently located, bike trail right across the street. My only complaint, burn the sofa. The beds are great, the sofa has seen better days.

Very clean and so welcoming! Lovely view of the ocean from the front porch. The screened in porch was great when evening bugs started to bite. The pool was awesome! The mother in law suite was great for my in laws. We’d come again for sure. 😃

We loved our stay at The Stork Nest! It is a great home in a convenient location. It is a quick and easy walk to the nearest beach access. Our group consisted of 6 adults and one very busy and active baby who celebrated her first birthday during our stay. This home was perfect for us because the upstairs deck had a secure gate at the stairs, as well as a screened in area which was safe and secure. This helped give us peace of mind while enjoying the outdoor area. The kitchen was very nice and had plenty of dishes and pans for all of our needs. This is a great home!

Our family of 3 + our dog had a fabulous time. I always want to stay on the beach, that's becoming unaffordable for us and The Stork Nest was perfect, not "on" the beach but an easy quick walk. We will certainly be back as soon as we can!

This was my fourth visit to The Stork Nest and it has never disappointed. My family and I love to stay here. The location is perfect and the updates keep making this vacation home one of our favorites. The private pool is great for evenings spent with family and the kitchen is fully stocked for preparing meals together.
Everything matched the description. It was a wonderful house in every respect. Super clean, great master bed, well equipped kitchen, big master bath. The in-law apartment came in handy as a part time office while I worked a few hours a day upstairs in the main house. The location, 200 yards from the beach, in the middle of the island, was ideal. I would highly recommend.

My family spent the last week at The Stork Nest as first-time visitors to SGI. It felt like staying in someone's home as opposed to a rental: Fully furnished and decorated, full kitchen chocked-full of anything you may need, outdoor spaces are a great combination of shaded, screened; house was incredibly clean and the location was perfect for beach and overall access.

This was our first trip to SGI and The Stork Nest was in an excellent location. Very short walk to the beach. House was clean and had everything we needed and then some. Very well stocked! We enjoyed the pool in the afternoons after we came back from being on the beach and eating supper. Very relaxing and quiet vacation. Would definitely rent this house again.

The Stork Nest fit all of our needs! Very clean. The Kitchen was well-stocked. Comfortable mattresses and seating. The only thing we would like to see added would be a staircase down to the pool area, off of the screened-in porch. But, that is just our opinion!

This house feels like home. The decor is personal and truly invites the occupant to sit back, take a deep breath, and relax. The color palette is soothing, and the view to the beach from the porch is perfect. The home has everything you need and is well stocked with necessities. I always stay here when I come to SGI because it truly gives me a sense comfort.
