I can’t say enough great things about the property and the hosts. The house is perfect; strong wi-fi, tvs in every room that work, perfect location, every bed was comfortable, gated deck and property made it easy to keep our dog corralled while being outside.The hosts were wonderful and made every bit of our trip that much more enjoyable.The only negative was having to leave. Can’t wait to come back.

This house reminded me of many happy visits to the beach as a kid. We enjoyed the games, the outdoor playroom, the ease of getting to the park, the comfy beds, the incredible view, the fenced porch and yard, etc. The hosts were very responsive as well. This isn't fancy, but it is just right!

About the host
Hosted by Tom and Lucinda
Hello and thank you for looking at our beach house! We live in Franklin County, FL and enjoy spending time on the quaint island of St. George. Tom grew up in Switzerland and Lucinda grew up in New York state. We are active people that like to travel to unique places - together we have traveled to 5 continents (hoping to hit all 7!) We were exploring the Florida Panhandle when we happened upon St. George Island and fell in love with the tranquil beaches. We enjoy all the beach activities, great weather and friendly people. We hope you enjoy The Blue Marlin and the island as much as we do.
Why they chose this property
After we visited St. George Island, we knew this was a place that we needed to have more connections. The Blue Marlin has wonderful views and a great beach front location. We are just a few steps to the beach which is the perfect location for us! St. George Island has many conveniences we want including great recreational activities year round, delicious restaurants, nice people and small town feel.
What makes this property unique
The outdoor space, large beach front lot and plenty of space to share with your family and friends. The game room is a wonderful place to spend evenings,rainy days or anytime you want to have fun!
