Adorable cottage! Fun, colorful, gated-fenced, meticulously maintained. Privacy!

818 W. Pine Ave., St. George Island, FL

Truly an 'Island Secret'! Very 'BEACHY' & fun 950sf coastal cottage! Only 4 rows of homes between you and the beach! A short walk to the beach boardwalk located only a football field and a half away, (150 yards), at the end of 8th Street! Enjoy the lush & knarled coastal oaks on our 2nd floor covered porch or screened porch! When we have 10-15 knot winds from the south you'll enjoy listening to the ocean waves. Complete privacy from neighbors!

Our fully stocked kitchen offers stylish quartz solid-surface counters, under mount sink and white bead board cabinets!

The kitchen, dining, and comfortable living areas are all open to each other and overlook the deck & island vegetation.

Each room in the house is a fun coastal color! You're at the beach on an island and on vacation! Bead board ceilings too for that cottage feel! Two bedrooms and one bath are upstairs along with one bedroom and one bath conveniently located downstairs on the ground floor with a separate entrance. Perfect for two couples wanting a bit of privacy or adult children! There is a laundry room with a washer and dryer located downstairs too!

You have a extra large private hot/cold outdoor shower, park style charcoal grill and a large swivel charcoal grill, along with a fish cleaning sink & table located downstairs. The property entry at the street offers a 16' wide gate and a fully fenced yard! Yes, we love your 4-legged children and are pet friendly! You'll love the securely fenced & gated property for your dogs!

A short walk away is Regatta Park! This is a bay front park that offers parking, covered picnic tables, park style grills, a white sandy beach nestled on a cove, and a kayak launch site!

Our other VRBO listing located near St. George Island is 60 minutes N.E. at beautiful Lake Talquin, VRBO 765447.


NOTE:
3 night minimum stay requirement except during the peak summer season when we have a 7 NIGHT MINIMUM STAY REQUIREMENT. Summer season: 7 night minimum stay with Saturday to Saturday rentals.

Sorry, we do not offer a monthly rate.

If you bring your dog, unlike most vacation rental homes, we DO NOT charge you extra for your 4-legged children, and we DO NOT charge you a pet security deposit. IN EXCHANGE, we simply ask that they'd be well behaved & trained, supervised at all times, current on flea/tick meds, non-scratchers on doors/windows/furniture, to keep them off the new Lovesac couch, (or bring blankets for the couch), & off beds, keep off the fence, avoid digging in the yard and that you'd pick up after them in the yard & tidy up. Due to the fact that your pet is not familiar with his/her surroundings at the house, PLEASE bring a kennel in case you plan to leave him/her alone so that your dog does not scratch our doors, door frame and sliding glass doors.

*We cater to family groups and cannot accept reservations for vacationing students or house parties. We do not rent to students or to groups under 25, even if one or more parents or legally responsible adults accompany them.

Cleaning/linens/bath towels fee is $150.00

In the event that you need to cancel, we provide a full refund 60 days or more prior to arrival. Within 60 days there is no refund. Trip cancellation/interruption insurance is strongly recommended because you never know what unexpected life event or weather event can occur.


Up to a $300 damage option will be automatically charged to your credit card within 14 days of check out if any damage occurs.

Tropical tree house

We LOVED this place. It was everything we expected and more! Comfy, close to everything, clean, private, and had everything we needed. We had a place booked for next year but cancelled 2 days into our stay here so we could rebook with Glen and Lawson. If you want fancy don't stay here.. but if you want to walk in and feel right at home at a very reasonable and affordable price..this is your place! Thanks a bunch to our fabulous hosts!!!

Our Perfect Island Escape

This was our second stay at Island Secret, and it won’t be our last! We first visited for a week in February last year and loved it so much that we returned for two weeks this time. The privacy of this charming cottage, nestled in a treehouse-like setting just a few blocks from the beach, is truly special.One of the biggest draws for us was the fully fenced yard, which made it easy to relax and enjoy our time with our two dogs. The soothing sounds of the ocean combined with the beautiful collection of wind chimes placed by the hosts created a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere. Inside, the kitchen is impressively well-stocked with everything you could need—pots, pans, utensils, dishware, and even a variety of spices for cooking up a great meal.We had a wonderful time – thank you!

Sweet Little Hideaway

If your looking for a secluded little beachy home in the trees this for you. It was a easy walk to the beach . The kitchen was very well stocked. Just big enough for the 2 of us and a dog! Quiet, except for the sounds of the waves at the beach!

Treehouse vibes

This property was really neat, convenient to public beach access and island amenities. The yard is fenced in, but if you have a smaller dog who likes adventures, there are a few places in the perimeter big enough to escape. The balcony is gated though, so that was a nice place to sit outside with the dogs. Owners were very communicative. We did not need to reach out during the stay, but they were very helpful during the booking process.

Fabulous second stay!

This is our second stay at this property, and we loved it just as much this time! We enjoyed having coffeee out on the balcony, hanging out inside and cooking dinner and breakfast, and walking down to enjoy the beach. We love St. George Island and Apalachicola and already can’t wait to return! The property is perfect, quiet, and exactly as described. Be sure to check out the outdoor shower as it’s fabulous when it’s not too cold out!

Sobre o anfitrião

Anfitrião: Glenn and Lawson Smith

Imagem do perfil do anfitrião
Island Greetings, Friends! We both grew up around Tallahassee where we still live today and started enjoying nearby St. George Island as kids since the '60's. My wife has fond memories of the island while visiting her family's beach house on East Gorrie. Oh my, have things changed! Fortunately, with 16 of the island's 27 miles preserved along with low density zoning & height restrictions, our island will remain pristine.

I have treasured memories during Middle School in the mid-70's of a buddy & I camping for a week at a time on the beach at the end of the island, without a tent, miles from the nearest house, long before the state park existed.

Our first experience of building on the island was in 2004 when we custom built our dream home, a large 4 story beachy home with all the resort amenities imaginable. We later sold the home and desired to create a cozy island vacation experience that is perfect for a small family or couples that want an affordable get-a-way. The 2nd time around is the best, 'Island Secret'!

Lawson is a 4th generation FSU graduate and lifelong teacher while Glenn enjoyed hospitality in a long airline & travel agency career. Both careers allowed us to serve others & to understand peoples needs.

Our family of 7, (plus spouses and grandchildren), enjoy boating around the area, shelling, and spending time together on an island that they also grew up on!

We'd love for you to create memories too & experience St. George Island in a laid back setting and a relaxed island atmosphere.

Thank You for viewing our page! We hope that you'll be our guest at Island Secret!

Glenn & Lawson Smith

Por que o anfitrião escolheu essa propriedade

We purchased this property as we love beach cottages! Not everyone wants to spend a small fortune for a short vacation. Why pay more?! Whether you're a couple, two couples, or a small family, you'll find everything you need at Island Secret in a fun and beachy surrounding!

O que faz essa propriedade ser única?

Our family fell in love with this property because of it's privacy among native island vegetation and still being so close to the beach where you can enjoy the sounds of the waves. You can have family-or-friends time on the deck without seeing a neighboring house.
