Welcome to Gratitude Cottage!

A home of true craftsmanship and woodwork, this lovely 3BR/2BA home features a gorgeous wood interior with high ceilings and an open living space immersed in natural lighting. A wrap-around sundeck faces the sunset with seating and a hammock for lazy days.

The living area offers a large, flat screen TV and DVD player as well as a music player to connect your music streaming device. The dining room seats up to 6 and is a step away from the well-equipped kitchen with tiled countertops and custom wood cabinets.

The master bedroom with Queen bed opens to the wrap around deck and has a private bathroom with a large, tiled shower. An additional Queen bedroom can be found at the opposite end of the hallway, just past the shared bathroom with tiled shower and deck access. Both bedrooms have a flat screen TV.

At the top of the spiral staircase is the loft bedroom where you can observe the beauty of your surroundings with 360 degree views of Gulf waters and lush vegetation. This space is open to the living area below and offers tenants a 3rd bedroom option or a cozy reading nook with a single futon (sleeps 1) and book library.

The laundry room with full size washer and dryer can be found underneath the home in our storage room. An enclosed hot/cold outdoor shower and fish cleaning sink can also be found in this shaded space and a nearby park-style charcoal grill is available to cook up the catch of the day.

Under-house concrete parking offers covered parking for 1 vehicle with additional paved parking at the front entrance of the home.

Beach access is an easy 3 minute walk along the quiet residential roads of the St. George Plantation and the Plantation Clubhouse with community pool, fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts is just one street over, a convenient walk or bicycle ride away. Enjoy the amenities and explore the St. George Plantation along the bicycle paths that weave along and away from the beach or delve deeper into the hidden coves and bay access areas offered by this prestigious community.

Gratitude Cottage is an expression of the simple appreciation of the beautiful and tranquil surroundings found on St. George Island. We hope to accommodate you!

Grateful for Gratitude Cottage
I have always been a fan of this little cottage. It is built from a variety of beautiful woods which have been left to naturally weather on the outside. Inside they are naturally turning their beautiful shades of gold. When the sun shines in the space just glows with warm light. It has a lightness of spirit too with just enough art and furniture to keep it feeling airy, uncluttered , comfortable and peaceful. The kitchen is showing a bit of wear and tear but everything worked and the pots and pans were excellent. The loft is a fabulous fun space but I didn't spend as much time up there as I thought I would because there was no place to sit. How about a bean bag chair? One would fit up the circular stairway, be great for reading or knitting and give one the feeling of being in a tree house. Lots to be grateful for here. Thank you.

Great Location to Beach and Pool!
Our family enjoyed being so close to the beach and the pool. The neighborhood was great for riding bikes, and we also had fun at the pickleball courts. The area is peaceful and relaxing. We had a fun family vacation!

Quiet and relaxing
This was one of the best vacations we have had and that is coming from 2 teenage boys. The island is quiet and relaxing especially where the house is located. Plenty of beach, fishing, biking, boating, etc. Main thing would be to stop at a grocery store before going on island as it is limited once you get there. Would definitely return!!

Nice family house
The house was great for a family vacation and we loved the natural interior. The long dinner table made it a perfect place for meals and games. The main issue was that the cable and internet were not working which combined with very weak cell service made things frustrating at times for communicating while at the beach and sports of interest were on. Feedback was that it was the recent tropical storm, but storm was weak and all surrounding houses had both.

Pleasant
We had a pleasant stay. I felt like the pictures were way old and really didn’t truly depict the house very accurately. There was lots of climbing up and down steps on the front and the back for washing clothes, would recommend for younger adults. The ice maker and water dispenser didn’t work on frig. The washer and dryer worked good but you can’t leave the washer closed very long because it smells bad. The house is very hot for the weather there. I had it set to the lowest temp aloud and wouldn’t get below 74 during the day. We also couldn’t really see sunset from the porch. Wording in contract needs to be more clearly spelled out. It was nice to be able to use the pools on the plantation and the beach walk wasn’t too far. We enjoyed the island.
