Great location
Really enjoyed the proximity to the beach. House was somewhat dated, but that was fine. We really ljked the deck - If weather had been warmer, we would have enjoyed the deck even more!!

Fantastic Holiday Getaway location
My husband and I, along with a couple of our friends stayed for several days over Christmas at this fantastic little house. It was the perfect size for the 4 of us. St. George was a wonderful town and people were scarce at that time of year. The owner of the house was very communicative and he has a local contact who manages the property and she was very communicative as well. We did not need any assistance while there. The house was very easy to access and had plenty of parking. It's nestled into some live oaks so it's very private, while also being just off the main island road. The walk to the beach is about a block, but the house provided beach chairs and a cart. We grilled a couple of times on the two charcoal grills present downstairs. They have a combo Keurig coffee maker where you can brew a pot or K-pods. The beds were comfortable and the house was clean. If I had to complain about anything it would probably be the low water pressure, but that's not a deal breaker for me. We cooked a lot while we were there, and the house had just about every kitchen utensil you can think of. The house also has a second refrigerator and a washer & dryer in a room downstairs. Also....the highlight of our stay was the fabulously huge deck out back that we gathered around and talked most of the day. All in all...this was a great VRBO and I highly recommend this location. The owner was very kind and offered many suggestions for things to do in the area. We will be back!

Convenient location
Overall good experience. This is a good bungalow home for a couple or family. It is a short walk to the beach and the owner provided nice beach chairs and a beach buggy. The kitchen has all of the necessary basics, the washer & dryer were handy, the outside area was convenient for washing off sand and washing the pets. The deck was large but not screened in.

Good location
This home is in a good location on the island. It’s an easy walk to the beach. The beach chairs provided are a nice addition, as is the outdoor shower, even though we didn’t use it. Grill worked well (bring charcoal). Beds are comfortable and A/C works well. Kitchen could use an update of cooking utensils. Oven is a wall oven and smaller than a conventional oven. Dishwasher is dated but works well, as does the washer and dryer. There was a bit of miscommunication about trash pick up so it would be wise to confirm pick up days. Overall, we had a really nice stay!

Great place for beach vacation
My family and I had a wonderful at this rental home. The location was great very close within a few minutes walk to a beach. The check-in was a breeze and the owner even called to give me tips about restaurants and what to do in town. Highly recommended.

About the host

Hosted by Dr. David 'Bucky' Wagmer

Host profile image
We have had our home on the island since 1972 when I was a coach and administrator at Florida State University. Our children were raised on the island (we spend most weekends here) and they still call it home. We completely remodeled and enlarged the property in the early 2002. It is virtually a new home. In the last two years I have replaced the air conditioned and heat pump, the dish washer, the clothes dryer and the refrigerator, painted the interior and the outside decks, installed new carpeting throughout the carpeted areas and added new larger flat TV's to the great room and the master bedroom. The home is again like a new home. We currently live in Statesboro, GA where I have retired as Associate Professor of Sport Law and Athletics Director at Georgia Southern University. I have also retired from my own athletics consulting business am a licensed real estate broker. My wife has retired from being a manager at an electrical coop. We have four children, all married, all college graduates, and all able to pay their own house payments.....We are in love with the island and hope to spend much more time here in our retired years. I am an avid fisherman and can tell you where to fish and when to fish and my wife knows every restaurant and every shop in the area. Please feel free to ask out advice about anything pertaining to your vacation.
