Our Beautiful Beach House

This post is primarily for me.

I want to remember all the little details of our beautiful beach house on St. George Island.

We have been on the Island 16 times.  I like to try a different house each time we go.  It is exciting to see how they are decorated, fun to have a look into so many people's houses.

We did rent a house called Margaritaville two years on a row because we really liked it and it fit our needs so well, but this year's house may have surpassed all the others.

Our house was The Coppertone House.

It was actually situated across the road from the beach with the bike path running behind it.

Because it was so tall, we were easily able to see the water from all the decks and from the living room and bedrooms which made it so nice.

As you walked in the front door, you came into a foyer with an elevator, which was a great feature and the steps going up.

On the second floor there were two huge bedroom suites with huge bathrooms and a smaller kid's bedroom with double/single bunk beds and an attached full bathroom.

All suites had TV's and king beds.

The bathrooms on this floor had Jacuzzi tubs and full showers.  one even had a private toilet room with its own fan.

On the top floor there was a large kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a large dining area with a table that seated 8 and a breakfast counter as well as a large living area with three couches, large screen TV, and full windows to the upper deck.

This entire area was one big room.

There was also a laundry room, small bathroom, and one more bedroom suite with large bathroom.

Absolutely perfect for the 8 of us.

Lots of room for togetherness, but also lots of room for privacy, too.

One of the best features of this home was our pool and hot tub.

The pool was big enough for all of us to relax on rafts and jump in.

The hot tub was perfect for Soli since she thought it was her won personal pool.  It was fun to jump off of the area by the hot tub into the 5 ft. of water in the pool.

There were lots of chairs around the pool for lounging, too.

Beyond the pool is the beach.  We would walk past our pool and then past that house you see in the back ground, cross the road, and take the boardwalk to the beach.  Less than five minutes and we were there.

 Here is our beautiful beach which of course, changes many times during the day with the high and low tides and the storms that come in.

Always endless white sand and beautiful greenish blue water though and big waves.

Always little critters and lots of shells, too.

Always room to sit on our chairs and just relax.

 

This is our boardwalk to the beach from the road which we had to cross.

Now on to the inside of our home:

 Our top deck where we all spent so much time reading, talking, and just taking it all in.  The best part was that the decks were all in the shade.

 View from our top deck looking west.

 Our living area with beautiful views of the water.

 Our kitchen area and breakfast bar.

 John and my suite.

 Another view into the kitchen.

 An area off of the living room full of games, videos, and books all for our enjoyment.

 John and my bathroom which included

 a rain feature in the shower.  The girls loved to take showers in there with me.

 Tiz and my mom's room.  They were great roommates.

 Alissa's room.

 The private toilet in Alissa's room.

 Alissa's bathroom

 A small bar and fridge on the second floor.

 Tiz and Marge's deck off of their bedroom.  This is in the back of the house, not by the pool.

 Our fireplace and pap zon chair.  That is how Soli says it.

 Washer and dryer off kitchen.

So, there you have it.

Our beautiful home away from home.

You just may see this one again in a year or two.

It is a keeper for sure.
