About this property

One Particular Harbor - St George Island - Beachfront

One Particular Harbor is a “Magic kind of Medicine” The moment you enter, the view will take your breath away. New living room furniture and new dining table and chairs in 2025. The spacious Great Room features an entire wall of windows to the Gulf and a large Covered Deck – Great Place to Relax and watch the world go by. Jimmy Buffet must have been thinking of this very spot when he wrote this song. The dolphins and shrimp boats will keep you glued to your seat. This is a very relaxing, casual beach home, decorated with the intent to be “magic medicine” for stress relief and memory making. The landscaping was designed for maximum privacy which is hard to find. There’s a 46” Flat Screen TV/DVD/VCR, Stereo with smart phone hookup & lots of beach music), books, CD’s – all to get you in the mood for rest, relaxation and fun. The kitchen features multiple seating at the “L” shaped, granite bar or large Dining Table. We’re fully stocked with Dinnerware, Pots & Pans, Utensils and appliances for cooking up some of our fabulous, fresh, local seafood. Lots & lots of original art work all around.

The Master Suite offers King size Bed, 3 sided Mirrored Granite Vanity and the Best View you’ll ever wake up to. The 2nd Bedroom sports a King size Bed, TV/DVD and a view of the Beach. The 3rd Bedroom has flat screen TV & twin beds. Kids of all ages love the 4th, Downstairs Bedroom/Bath featuring a flat screen TV, small fridge, microwave & coffee pot. We call it “Jimmy’s Hideaway” No interior stairway. Probably best for teens or grandparents who don't do stairs!There’s a Fish Cleaning Table with sink & running water, that’s really handy after you catch a few Pompano or Red Fish, & a Hot/Cold Outdoor Shower that’s convenient & fun after a day on the Beach for you or Fido, and a Boardwalk to the There’s paved, covered parking, a picnic table and, Best of all, it’s all just a short walk to everything the Island has to offer.

If you get enough relaxing (Did I say that?), the State Park over the last 7 miles of the Island to the East offers unspoiled, natural beaches, NOBODY around, nature trails, wildlife galore & great shelling and was among Dr. Beach's Top 10 again in 2017. There’s a paved Bike Path from the State Park for 24 miles, wonderful restaurants featuring fresh local seafood that’s worth the trip, shopping, and, of course, you’ve got to climb the Lighthouse and go through the Museum & Gift Shop just a short walk on the beach from the house. There are boat ramps, kayak rentals, jet skis, sailboats, fishing, crabbing, shelling & so much more. A little further out, back on the mainland, there’s great shopping, eating, and exploring in ”old Florida” towns like Apalachicola, full of history & intrigue. Further out, St James Bay to the East & St Joe Country Club offer Golfing to the public AND don’t miss Wakulla Springs, St Marks Lighthouse and much, much more.

My home is Pet Friendly for one small, well behaved Dog. Check with owner for exceptions. We have a strictly enforced “NO SMOKING” policy and 8 person maximum. We want you and your family to have a Great, Relaxing, Memorable Vacation, leave the home like you’d like to find it, and come back year after year for more “magic medicine”. We want to talk to you so call us at 850-323-0046

This home was in the perfect location close to the center of the island but had a secluded feel to it. It had lots of wildflowers in the back with a ton of beautiful butterflies. The beach was very close and the porch had a fabulous view. The decor was interesting to look at with a beachy feel. Comfy couch and beds also. The kitchen could use some some plastic bowls, plates cups and cookware. We were afraid we would break some glassware. We didnt have anything to store leftovers in but bought some at the Piggly Wiggly. The house and owner was great to work with. We would definately stay again!

Back on the Island

We stayed at One Particular Harbor, for the second time, with old friends. It's a perfect place for dolphin-sighting, beach walking, and enjoying each other's company. The house has everything we need and more. The deck was our living room (there's a real living room, too.) We had a great week.

Fantastic views, cozy comfortable house

We had a wonderful vacation here. The beach front location was perfect! I loved having a gorgeous view from every room facing the beach. There was a rainy day with rough surf, and I loved seeing the “angry” ocean from a comfortable, warm location. Beds and bedding was nice; I slept well the whole week.

Perfect family beach vacation stay

The location of this house is perfect. Walking distance to many places but we rented a golf cart for the week and could get to all the main shopping/dining places without having to drive a car. The beach view is perfect. We saw so many dolphins and spent every day on the beach!

One Parrticular Harbor March 2024

OPH is the perfect beach house. We spent countless hours sitting on the porch watching the schools of dolphins swim buy. Sunrises are nothing short of spectacular. Beach lovers step off the private boardwalk right onto the dunes/beach. Owner was very easy to work with. The house is clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend. Be sure to wear bug repellent when going to the beach or outside at night. No see ums are brutal.

The Perfect Magic Kind of Medicine

One Particular Harbor was the perfect vacation beach house for me and my family. We ranged in age from 17 to 81, and everyone (including the dog) was thrilled with the house and the beach. The house was ideal for us. The spacious great-room (large kitchen connected to eating area and living room) was perfect to ensure that no one was left out of anything happening, as well as being a great place to watch the dolphins swim by almost every day. The 17- and 22-year-olds appreciated the wave runner rental location that was about a 1/2 mile walk down the beach, and the Blue Parrot has great grouper dishes and a fun beachside bar. The owners clearly and accurately represented their property and were extremely easy to work with. I recommend One Particular Harbor to anyone seeking the perfect family vacation home.

Perfect SGI beach house

We have stayed at several places in SGI and this was by far the best. The view of the ocean from the bed was the perfect way to wake up each morning. This house has been rented by it’s amazing owners for a long time and it shows in all the details. All things are well labeled, instructions are clear, the kitchen is huge and well-stocked with any cooking utensil needed. I appreciated the plantings around the house and how the palms on either side of the porch provided extra privacy when sitting and watching the waves. The house was very clean and the furniture immaculate. It had none of the yuck factor that unfortunately is common in rentals. Jim was also very responsive and helpful with any questions. The location is perfect. Quiet but within very easy walking distance of the lighthouse, shopping and restaurants. We had a lovely vacation - mostly in the state park - walking to the eastern point and collecting shells and a lot of sand dollars. SGI is an amazing place to vacation and I would definitely rent this house again on future trips.

A True Get-a-Way and So Much More

This property is in a perfect location on the East End of SGI. Close to the city center and yet even in mid-July the beach in front of the house is fairly quiet and not crowded. Main house is all one level and is equipped beyond your need ! Love the open concept of kitchen and living area. The extra BR downstairs is a fun and convenient bonus. We do a lot of our own cooking and the cookware is amazing with a huge variety of nonstick pots and pans. Even two large pots for our crab legs. One flight of stairs up to the house makes it perfect for our elderly moms to navigate. The laundry room is large with a great washer and dryer. TV's in all rooms are easy to use and have lots of channels. That back porch is a paradise with comfy furniture and a view so close to the beach it's almost like being on the beach. Your fur baby will be secure with the gate at the top of the steps on the back porch. Owners are amazing and easy to reach. They truly go above and beyond to make your stay wonderful. Already booked our 4th year for 2022.

A lovely, comfortable beach house with amazing views! Perfect for our family of seven. We loved being able to walk right out to the beach, and the house is close enough to walk to the shops/restaurants on the island. We had beach chairs delivered to the house. If we had stayed longer, we likely would have rented bikes or a golf cart also. Enjoyed ice cream at Aunt Eddy’s and dinner at Paddy’s. Overall a wonderful experience!

Family Beach Escape

From start to finish Jim was wonderful and the property was just as presented! This house was perfect for our family to reconnect with one another; from DC, Montana and Ohio. The view from the front porch and front room are incredible. The beach is beautiful for swimming, walking, shelling, relaxing.The location can’t be beat, very short drive or walk to the main area of town, but far enough away to feel as if you have a private beach area. The wildlife is amazing, right outside your door. Dolphins , several types of crabs and fish seen from the beach everyday; not to mention variety of birds and the many turtle nesting sites!Fully stocked kitchen made family dinners an awesome experience. Everything from several types of fish we caught, on a chartered trip, to a crab boil!It was a wonderful stay and would highly recommend to anyone looking to enjoy beach life with the comforts of home

Amazing view and beach

The house was great. It’s older but the living room and kitchen area is very roomy and can accommodate 6-8 people easily. The view is amazing. Everyone in our family kept talking about how the view was worth the price of admission. The one thing I will note is that our guest who was sleeping downstairs did end up coming upstairs to sleep on the couch because the room was a bit humid but it was a non issue. I would stay here again. Jim was very accommodating and communicative.

I love to sit on the porch and watch the world go by. What a View! Our landscaping is designed for total privacy for our guests. Lush plants and palm trees provide a break from everything but the beach & the ocean.
