About this property

Perfect Couples Getaway - Canal Front Apartment

In 1957 my great-grandmother became one of five permanent residents on St. George Island. This place has been a part of our family ever since. Whether it's your first trip or you've been coming for years, I invite you to stay at Little Tradition and experience the quiet beauty of SGI. Maybe you'll make it part of your history too.

Here are the details:

Cute and colorful, ground level, dog friendly apartment in a tranquil setting. Dock and fenced yard. Queen size bed and twin size sleeper love seat. Full kitchen, washer and dryer, large shower. Charcoal park grill outdoors.

Good for a couple, but the quiet, canal location also makes it ideal for a solo traveler wanting to fish or just recharge. The beach is an easy 1/2 mile walk away. Kayaks are available and included in the fee. Several island businesses have golf carts and bikes to rent for a fun, leisurely way to get to the beach or restaurants.

I hope you enjoy this little piece of paradise!

***

My family and I no longer live upstairs but may be there visiting. Otherwise, no one should be there. If you need space for a larger group ask about renting the upstairs (sleeps 6).

Great spot to unwind and relax

The property was tidy and well equipped for a couple + dogs in need of a break. We really enjoyed morning coffee in the dock and dinner on the picnic table. My husband caught plenty of blue crab for a lovely seafood boil to celebrate our anniversary. The house is minutes from everything SGI has to offer. One of our favorite spots was Regatta Park, a great place to swim dogs and catch stunning sunsets. Ashley was very responsive and highly recommended as a host. Thank you for sharing your home with us! Tips to future guests: Select dry setting on the air conditioner if the air feels damp. Pack beach towels. Survivors has a great natural bug spray. Grab some on your way in. Bring a cheap plastic table cloth for dining outside. Bring a big pot if you desire to do a crab boil. Have fun!!!

Excellent Spot for a Couple

This spot is located on the bay side of the island, but it's only a 15 minute walk to the beach via public access routes. We had no problem walking the dog and carrying our stuff. Also, the space is pet friendly. There's a small fenced-in yard to let the dog run around. There's also a dock and kayaks on site if you want to paddle around. To be fair, this is not a luxury apartment, but you're also not paying luxury apartment prices. If it's just the two of you and maybe a dog, and all you want is a place to crash with some convenient amenities, like a kitchen and some outdoor space to chill on a dock with relative privacy, I couldn't recommend this place enough. We'll most likely use it again, if it's just the two of us.

Serene, private pet friendly stay on the water

This is our second stay with our 2 dogs and it was perfect! We will come back every year for as long as they let us. So many plusses! Right on the water, with a dock, kayaks and covered seating! Fenced yard and tile floors are so pet friendly. This time we brought our 16 foot boat and it was so easy to put in at the boat ramp and such a luxury to have it in the front yard at the dock all weekend. The host was of course fantastic as always, just a text away and so responsive and friendly :)

Good location. Musty smell.

First, the good. The location is nice and convenient. Ashley, the host, was responsive to messages and even gave us a heads up that someone else was coming by to get something from the garage. Now the bad. The apartment had an awful musty smell that was still in our unworn clothes and suitcases when we returned home. The place could be nice but it has been renovated by someone that obviously didn’t know what they were doing (walls patched together, tile unfinished, sheetrock unfinished, etc). The dock is old and patched together as well. The bed is listed as a queen but we are certain it is a full. Overall, we wouldn’t recommend.

We loved the location, sitting on the dock in the afternoon especially! The place was clean and comfortable and Ashley was a very attentive host! We found the mattress on the soft side and we sleep best on firm beds so that was the down side of the place for us.

Great stay!

This was an excellent place for my friend and me to spend a quiet Thanksgiving week! Great location and the property was just as listed. We appreciated that it was very clean overall. We especially liked that the kitchen isn't cluttered with past guests' leftovers and old packets of condiments, etc; and the bathroom doesn’t have a bunch of old, half-used soaps and shampoos, etc. It was very nice to have hotel-style toiletries and kitchen items. Both beds were comfortable and linens are nice. We would stay again.

Great place to stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here on St.George. Little Tradition was the perfect place for me and my husband. The neighborhood was very quiet and the view was great. My husband mostly stayed at the covered dock and fished. The beach was a close walk and the bike/walking trail was an added bonus.

Gorgeous pet friendly stay!

Everything was a described and what can't be described is the peace and beauty of the place. Host was so communicative and 💯 we would love to return here. To help the next person, if you plan on doing any cooking you'll need to bring anything not dish related- so bring salt and paper, coffee filters etc. If you forget anything, not to worry, the Piggly Wiggly down the road has everything you need.

About the host

Hosted by Ashley Kim

I'm Ashley, owner and host of Little Tradition. I live above the apartment with my husband, two children (ages 10 and 13), a dog, an old cat, and a kitten.

A visitor to St. George Island since childhood, we moved here full-time in 2020 and recently purchased this property from its former owners/hosts, Frank and Laura (my mom). I'm now the 4th generation of women in my family to have owned property here and the second, after my great-grandmother in the 1950's, to live here year round.

My goal is to continue providing the great service returning guests have come to expect and make new visitors into returning ones.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

I look forward to meeting you!
