This was our first trip to St George Island. The property was just as advertised. We enjoyed biking through the Plantation and the island. The Jetty was just a short bike ride and then a quick walk.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our first time at SGI and we loved staying at Deacon Blues! The property is on the bay side of the plantation which is a bit more private than some of the beachside homes. Many trees and plants surround the property giving it a very natural, secluded feel. The home and property were very clean and well-maintained. We enjoyed all the various decks and porches where you could sit outside and enjoy the surroundings. Stars/milky way were very visible at night, great view off of master bed deck. The walk to the beach is not bad at all (about 5-7 minutes) and worth it in my opinion for the extra privacy. We enjoyed Aunt Ebby's ice cream on the island. Also recommend taking a drive up to Wakulla Springs (about 1.5 hour). The boat tour of the river was wonderful. Also Millender seafood in Carabelle has a great little seafood store. Very clean, great selection. We almost rented another home not on the planation and I am glad we did not. The plantation is so much of a nicer setting compared to the other parts of SGI. I highly recommend Deacon Blues and would definitely stay again.

We loved the thoughtful details such as comfy outdoor seating, screened in porch and abundance of games to play as a family. It was a short, easy walk to the beach, tucked away in a quiet part of the Plantation. So thankful to be able to bring our four legged family members too. We would definitely like to come back!
