We had an amazing experience at this VRBO! Communication with the host was prompt, clear, and incredibly helpful from start to finish. The property was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and well-stocked with everything we needed. You can tell the owners put care into the details. We felt right at home and would absolutely stay again. Highly recommend!

Just WOW!

What a phenomenal place to stay!! The perfect price the perfect location everything just perfect. We have been coming to the island every summer for almost 30 years. First as children and over the years as adults but always our mother and my siblings. We’re all grown now and this February we lost our mother. This will be the first year we gathered with out her.

The living space in the center part of the house was pretty awesome. The outdoor area deck behind the house was great! Great view of the water....and a great place to hang out. Very short and easy walk to the beach! All of the bedrooms in the house need a little update. Very basic mattresses. No night stands or bedside tables. There was paint peeling from the ceiling in the master bathroom. Just some little details we noticed could be easily fixed. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay. I just feel like that house needs a little love. PS, The owner was great at communicating with us.

Shark Bait Gets a 10

Wonderful deck with three seating options. NiceView of the ocean. Very breezy when we were there making enjoying the deck even easier! Great kitchen area with seating for 8 at the island. Nicely decorated. Kitchen had all "tools" we needed -- and we ate every meal, except one, there for the week. Would choose this one again!

Perfect house for our family

With four bedrooms and an open floor plan, this house had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay! Heather was very helpful too! The decks out back with ample seating were a great place for sitting in the winter sun and catching up with our out of town family members. We would definitely stay there again!

Family time

This was a great place a short walk to the beach. There is a big porch on the back with a sea view. Short distance to dinning and state park for hiking. Just remember to take bug spray if hiking. We love St George very quit and peaceful place to spend a week to unwind.

We enjoyed our stay.

Shark Bait was a good fit for our group. There was just enough room for everyone to have some privacy, and the living room/kitchen area was pleasant. We ate meals at the table on the porch and at the kitchen counter. Our beds were comfortable and the bathrooms worked well. It was an easy walk to the beach and a quick drive to the shops on St. George Island.
