Jul 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We always love coming to SGI-the house was the perfect size for our family of 5 and with a golf cart, getting around was a breeze! It was super hot, heat advisory hot for several days of our stay so the pool was more like a warm bath, overall the house was clean and we had a great time!! ##### Jennifer C.

Aug 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family reunion on St. George We enjoyed our stay! Small pool was nice for cooling iff with 2 kids. Concrete parking area under the house was nice for shade, cleaning off sand, and leaving beach equipment., The number of bedrooms and bathrooms worked well for our adult children. Would have been nice to have use of the charcoal grill. 21/2 blocks to the peach was good for us. ##### dixie m.

Great size house for 4 adults and 3 kids! It’s a nice quiet area within walking distance to the beach and the bay. We did rent a golf cart to help with small children getting to the beach and getting around the island. The pool was small but a perfect respite from the ocean each day! Rooms are spacious! Kitchen was well stocked for our needs! Beds were comfortable and linens average but clean! We did enjoy going to see the sunset most nights along the bay! ##### Beth S.

It was convenient to the beach and on a quiet road. We thoroughly enjoyed that aspect. It does need a little more refined housekeeping practices, but otherwise, we had a great vacation. we would book it again! ##### Rodney M. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rebecca K. Jul 10, 2023 #### Vacation Rental The house was plenty big for our party of 10 bc 2 were kids. It would’ve been tight if those were adults as one bed was futon in living room but it was really comfortable! The pool was small but awesome - great for the kids and adults to take break from the beach. We used our beach umbrellas on the pool deck bc no covered seating until later in the day when deck provided some shade. The decks were fantastic to sit outside for breakfast in the morning and star gazing at night - only thing they need is a fan during mid-day heat. We drive to beach access bc of kids but two block walk wouldn’t be bad - recommend a wagon to carry beach gear. Had a great time here!! ##### Rebecca K. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Lori D. Apr 20, 2023 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Nice location lacking in areas The location was wonderful! The house was a quick walk to the beach. Overall we truly enjoyed our stay. There were a few areas this house needs some TLC. The outer decking and patios are very weather and many boards were split which was a safety concern. The kitchen lacked a lot of basics to make cooking and preparing meals a challenge. There were no pizza cutters, large stirring spoons were missing, as well as spatulas, additionallymany of the pots and ##### Lori D.

We have been coming to St. George since 2013 on fall break. It’s one of our favorite places to go as a family. This year we stayed at Sand in Your Shorts. It was a great house that accommodated 10 of us! We loved everything about the house! It was a very easy check in and out. ##### Vickie M.
