Bicycle path runs the full length of the Island and is literally steps from this Property along Gulf Beach Drive. Take the Bike path down to the shops or to the beach.

Nearby attractions: This home is only a short ride, drive, or walk from the 6th East Pine avenue Bayside Nature Reserve, where you can walk the private paths to the beach and encounter hundred's of Fiddler Crabs moving together, Estuary Birds and Cranes, and even get into some great Bayside Fishing behind the East Sandbars!

SGI State Park is also located on this homes side and is only a 4 minute car ride to the gate! This is the longest beachfront state park in the state of Florida, with many Private pull offs to the Beach and Private Boardwalks to the Bayside of SGI. Campground Nature trail to the tip of rattlesnake Cove sandbar is a great trip for the Explorer. Also, my personal favorite is the East end access to through the State Park!!. This is hands down 1 of the Top 2 spots to Fish on SGI. Just ask for the East end gate code at the guard shack, fill out the paper work, and drive to the Most Secluded location on SGI where there is the most untouched Beach on the Island and Deep Water to fish right from the Beach! There are also locations where the water is shallow and Great for the Kids to play. Sea Shells Galore!

Kitchen appliances need some updating. Broken drawers noted in refrigerator. Oven door does not close tightly, therefore anything being cooked in the oven takes forever. I was very disappointed with the communication from the owners/VRBO. We made several requests during the week before our arrival for the code to the door that were ignored—no reply at all until the afternoon of check in and we had to call again to get it then. Also we were never given any check out instructions other than the time. Never were we told the days of garbage pick up, what was expected of us before check out—linens off the beds? Dishwasher ok with clean dishes inside or to be put away? Empty all garbage cans? Most of these things we knew from previous rentals, but I was surprised there were no guidelines given to us. Housekeeping was questionable. We noted children’s clothing left on the floor beside the washing machine, and a pile of dirt in the floor to the right of the dryer. Both were in hard to reach places, but a professional cleaner should have taken care of those.On the plus side, we found the kitchen well equipped with dishes, cutlery, and pots and pans for cooking and serving meals for a crowd. Beds comfortable. Pool nice. Enjoyed the swing on the bottom level. All in all a nice stay—just disappointed with the communication.

Our family of 11 enjoyed a wonderful week on SGI. The house is wonderful. We did have two sets of parents in their 60s and 70s who had a hard time with the stairs and getting up out of the very soft/comfy couch in the main living area. You kind of just sink into it, our teens loved it but it was harder for older people with bad backs/knees to get good footing so they all just sat in the hard dining chairs all week. Overall it was a great experience. My husband and I would have loved some more storage space in the upstairs king bedroom. There are only two small drawers on the night stands and no other storage except for a closet with 4 clothing hangers. We ended up just laying our clothes on the shelf in the closet. Just a minor thing that would make the stay more comfortable. The pool is wonderful and the walk to the beach is very close and convenient. We loved this vacation!
