Charming Cottage Experience

Bart N Cleveland, GA
Review Submitted: April 9, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2008
It was love at first sight! We were tired of the 'plastic' condo vacations and were looking for something cozy and comfortable. Lynn and David has provided such a wonderfully relaxing cottage and gave it a bit of a playful atmosphere of peach colored siding, butterfly bushes, pool (woot!), and even a whimsical beach hat collection. Our grandson loved being able to bring the dog along and still talks about our time there, that's priceless. Shortly after we returned home we booked it for the next years trip. This is one of those special places you make memories of with your family and fill up the scrapbook with the pictures, year after year.
Owner's Response: Sandpiper has such a history in itself, and the guests who
return year after year are now part of that story.

Great Honeymoon Get Away

Phouse Atlanta
Review Submitted: November 13, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
We had a great time at Sandpiper Cottage! It was wonderful to be able to bring our dogs along with us. We really enjoyed the short walk to the beach and the closest stretch of the beach was generally empty so it was like we had it to our self. It was great to have a well stocked kitchen and the fish carts just down the road! We really enjoyed all of the fresh seafood we were able to eat. Having the pool was great. We were able to go swimming and still be able to keep an eye on the dogs and were never to far away from the fridge. The best restaurant we found was the Seafood Grille in Apalachacola. The food was inexpensive and great. We also made a trip to Boss Oyster and enjoyed it very much!

Paradise is St. George Island

CoCoShirt San Mateo, CA
Review Submitted: April 17, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
We had such a marvelous time in Lynn's lovely cottage. From the LOCATION to the kitchen and pool to the wrap around porch and fresh daily seafood and sunsets...we couldn't have asked for a more perfect vacation. We will definitely be back again and again!

It feels like home...plus the ocean and pool!

Chickie M. Nashville, TN
Review Submitted: April 13, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2008
The Sandpiper has been our summer destination for three years! We love the privacy, great pool, and we get to bring our dogs. That's the reason we chose St. George Island in the first place....then we found the Sandpiper and we were hooked. The location is right across the street from the beach and you can see the ocean from poolside.

I cannot imagine staying anywhere else on the island. It has a great kitchen and we love to grill our daily "catch" that we get from doug's truck....right outside on the private deck. Coffe in the morning on the beach with no people is our idea of heaven.

You will love the Sandpiper and the whole St. George experience! Have fun, Mary :)

Pet best

Lisa n family South Bend, Indiana
Review Submitted: April 10, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
We took 2 teens and 1 small jack russell. Couldn't have asked for a better place. Kitchen is open to the living area for great entertaining and family time! The porch/deck that is completely enclosed w/ fencing that my wannabe runaway pet would love to escape but couldn't. It made our vacation easy and relaxing. Being straight away from the ocean gave us wonderful relaxing sounds in the evening. Ours was a last minute vacation request and the owners were extremely accomodating! It was so very much appreciated. We will return to Sandpiper Cottage. Thank you.
