Loved the view over the water! We caught fish and enjoyed having our boat parked at the dock. The house was great. Rooms were nice and clean. Would recommend St. George rentals to anyone they were awesome

Great location and beautiful home. Loved the screened in porch with bed swing that overlooks the river. My daughter and i spent lits of tine out there reading and enjoying the view while my husband fished from the dock.
Had a great stay here. Property was clean and well thought out with lots of outdoor spaces. Boat ramp was convenient but a little tough for bigger boats. Around a 30 min idle out to the bay. Overall great experience!
None of the kitchen knives are sharp. Had a very hard time filleting a fish. Kitchen cooking utensils and pans are minimal.

Thank you for your feedback and for choosing Fish & Dog Cottage for your fishing trip. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention. A sharp fillet knife is definitely a must when cleaning the day's catch, and we're sorry the kitchen inventory fell short during your stay.
We will be completing a full kitchen inventory and will replace any dull knives as well as restock any missing or worn cooking utensils and cookware. Guest feedback like yours helps us make improvements for future stays.
We're glad you stayed with us and hope to welcome you back to the river again soon!
