This place is absolutely the cutest. I stayed here for my birthday and we had a wonderful time playing games in the outdoor living room. The kitchen/dinning room is also a great spot to host and cook dinners together. Next time I come here, this will definitely be at the top of my list.

My family had the absolute best time at the SGI Cottage! It was a literally a little hidden oasis in the middle of the island. It was so clean and perfect size for our teenagers and us to enjoy our space, but the back deck was such a great place for us to come together and enjoy family time. We loved that it was enclosed completely, and our son loved finding the geckos and frogs that would randomly appear on the screen and wood around the deck. It was about 9 blocks from the main area of the island, so it was a quick trip to the Piggly Wiggly if you need something. We tried pretty much every restaurant on the island, but Blue Parrot and Paddy's were definitely our favorite. We loved that they had the beach wagon ready for us to use and it made the short 3 minutes trek to the beach so much easier. The kitchen had everything that we needed to make breakfast and lunch at the house easy to fix. We also loved the refrigerator on the back deck. We had that as our drink fridge and was so nice when we were hanging out on the deck. The beds were so comfy and the theming was perfect! We honestly had no complaints! My husband and I are elementary school teachers and this was the perfect start to our summer break. Thanks Rebecca. We can't wait to come back.

The SGI Cottage is located close to the beach and bay. It feels like an oasis away from the traffic of the main roads. The cottage was very clean and is much more spacious than I thought it would be. The crowning gem is the screened in patio. Your family will definitely enjoy this outdoor area. We will be back, you should check it out!

Great location and out door space. We spent most of our time out doors! They do provide a beach wagon which was very helpful!
