Beautiful Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an absolutely lovely week. I've eyed this home for years, It lived up to our expectations in so many beautiful ways Facing heart surgery, my spouse & I came 4 1 week to rest and connect. Best Things: Sitting in the sun above Bob Sikes Cut; Private Dinner at home courtesy Chef Brett Gormley-exquisite food in a fun setting.. Above The Creek in Appalachicola. Family Traditions Coastal Restaurant. Sunset. Peace & Quiet. So full of beauty. There are things I should mention however. The house is aging and needs TLC. I know what I'm talking about (my home built in 1984 has a lot of similar issues). The small things don't bother us but the (really) heavy table top in the pool area that fell into my lap when i leaned on it was a real hazard. If you've got toddlers (and not a nanny) beware. I had this persistent image of all the shells & fragile decor linking arms and running 4 their lives while chased by our 3 & 4 yr old grandkids-wreaking havoc throughout. The TV is-interesting. I was afraid my spouse would have a stroke trying to make it behave to his satisfaction (1st world problem). Generally: I really wish we'd found GCVP 40 years ago-Awesome people. Layout/Location beautiful despite my physical limitations. Will be great family vacation if you're not hung up on little details-especially if you've got fisherpeople.

The dock rocks!

This was a great house for a family get together. We had 3 individual families and my mother in-law here and we loved it. The pool heater and the hot tub weren't working, but we still enjoyed the patio area and absolutely LOVED the dock areas. There is plenty of room to be together or to sneak away for some quiet time. We saw lots of porpoises off the dock.

Beautiful !

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a nice week, 2 main issues that would have made our stay better were the loss of use of the hot tub and the gas grill not being available for 90% of our stay. The dryer also ate anything with a string, so you should have it checked on, we lost 3 bathing suits to the toothy monster.

Best SGI rental experience in 20 years!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay at above the cut was beyond expectations! This was our best experience in SGI in the last decade. Gulf Coast Vacation Properties have The greatest attention to detail and exceptional customer service to ensure their clients are satisfied. I asked for the house to be impeccably clean for my immune compromised father-in-law's 90th Birthday Celebration and so it was. One minor service call was immediately addressed to our satisfaction. Thank you for making this important milestone celebration a success. See you next year!

Wonderful, Home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is super spacious and enough room for a huge crowd even though there was only seven of us five adults, two small children. Thoughtfully and beautifully built home, but keep in mind there’s a lot of stairs for extra tall ceilings. Had a small problem with the heated pool but Management company addressed it quickly. Loved fishing off the dock!

Awesome family vacation spot!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 weeks at Above The Cut! The location and views are stunning all day long. The property is well-kept and clean. We had a couple minor mechanical inconveniences that we were fairly reimbursed for, but overall - it was the best family get-together we have ever had!

Above the Cut

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful weeklong stay at Above the Cut. There were 10 of us. Our party was 5 college age young adults with parents and grandparents. The location on the cut was amazing because we love fishing and knew we could catch a lot right off the dock of this property. The sunsets were SO beautiful from the many levels of decks and the amenities were great for what we needed. The pool and hot tub were also perfect. It was a great stay.
