About this property
Howl at the Sea - SGI
Come Howl at the Sea in this NEWLY renovated, super pet friendly Beach Bungalow on St George Island, Florida. This light, airy 2 bedroom home is one of SGI's original homes and has been special renovated for you, your family, friends and pets. Located @ 100 steps to the gorgeous Gulf beach on one of Florida's Forgotten Coast areas and on the beach access path. Just walk down our boardwalk and out the back gate and be at the beach in a minute. You can even get a few glimpses of the water from the upper deck and hear the relaxing sounds of the waves. This single story home sits on the ground so you won't have to climb steps. There is a large open living area for relaxing, reading, playing games or watching your favorite tv show on the 55 inch screen. You can also watch the sunset from the living room out our large panoramic dining room window. It is a breathtaking show. The dining room seats 6 and also has a twin day bed for relaxing or sleeping. The fully equipped kitchen is off the dining room and has everything you need to whip up your favorite beach dishes. We even added a slow cooker, blender and stellar coffee/tea maker so bring your favorite single cup flavors or a large bag of your favorite coffee and never sleep. There are 5 TVs - living room, dining room, each bedroom and the screen porch One bedroom has a king size bed and ample closet size, big enough to fit a large dog crate or pack n play. This room has blackout curtains for those mornings you just don't want to get up with the sun. The second bedroom has a queen bed with twin bunk, also with ample closet space. The main bathroom is oversized and has 8 overhead cabinets for all your towels and toiletries. Their is a shower/tub combo with a filter on the shower and a bath ball filter for the tub. This helps to cut down on the chlorine and hard water. There is also a half bath and an outdoor enclosed shower with rainfall shower head, mirrors and a bench. Showering outside is fun and we tried to make it fabulous. And lastly there is a rinse off shower with a filter that is awesome for cleaning up after the beach.
We love our four legged family and we made this house super pet friendly. Our backyard is large and flat and more importantly is fully fenced in for your pups run and play. There is even a doggie pool and sprinkler....and we won't tell if you take a dip or run through the sprinkler too. We have a propane grill and fish cleaning station. Ping pong, cornhole, giant jenga and giant connect 4 outside for your playing pleasure too. Or you can take a nap after the beach in our hammock under the palms. And the landscaping of canna lilies, banana trees, sago palms, hibiscus will help you get in that tropical feeling. Oh, and take your morning coffee or dine under the string lights in our patio bistro or go to the upper deck and dine, drink, play games or just watch the island go by. If you like people watching, sit on the front stoop Adirondack chairs and waive at the passerby's. We have beach chairs too.

The house is really nice, the screened in room w/TV was great. Loved the upper deck with gulf view. Lounges and chairs everywhere in the awesome yard, great for us and the dog. Short walk to the beach, would highly recommend the place for a family with a few kids.
My wife and I had a great stay at Howl at the Sea! The house was perfect, and had everything we needed. It was great to have such a short, easy walk to the beach. Our little pup really enjoyed having a nice backyard to go outside and explore. Wonderful trip and will book again when we need a wonderful place for just the two of us.
This was the perfect house for myself and my beagle. The yard was bigger than my own yard and she loved being able to explore. The house was a great size and everything we needed.
Our family vacation at Howl at the Sea was fabulous! We loved the house and the outdoor space was better than described. We had everything we needed. The hosts thought of everything! We would stay again and again.
We loved this house! It was so cozy and had everything we needed to feel like we were at home! The yard and screened in porch were perfect for relaxing and for our dog to run and play. It was a very quick walk to the beach. We can’t wait to book again!
The house had all the amenities you need. A huge fenced backyard which was beautifully landscaped w lots of palm trees. Perfect for our dogs! The inside was so clean and tastefully decorated. We loved the screened in sunroom which was comfy and airy. One of the best parts was the super convenient location just a few minutes to walk to the beach.
This is the perfect beach house! The house was decorated beautifully and immaculate, but my favorite thing was the back yard. It was like a private little paradise with comfortable seating, a hammock, ping pong table and corn hole. You can walk or bike to everything. Cant wait to stay here again!
By far my favorite host and house on St. George. Very cozy and dog friendly house with a great fenced backyard, screened back porch and more TVs than you can shake a stick at.
Quick walk to the beach and the host was incredibly great to deal with. Will definitely be checking if this spot is available the next time I visit.
My wife, our adult son and I (plus 2 dogs) very much enjoyed our recent stay at Howl at the Sea. It is a neat old school Florida beach house that has been updated beautifully. The owners (Chuck and Christina) have thought of everything you could need and are very responsive. The outside fenced area is a unique on SGI and great for dogs. We especially liked the screened back porch for shade in the day and the upstairs deck/seating area for coffee in the morning and relaxing in the cool of the evening. Highly recommend.
Our stay at Howl at the Sea was delightful. The place was clean and so attentively decorated. You can tell the hosts put a lot of time and love into the place. Speaking of the hosts, they were wonderful. They made it easy for us to check in and out. They were always kind and responded quickly to all of our questions. Great water pressure in the shower. The outside space was also really great.
We rented the house for a beach wedding we were attending. The size of the house and the updates were great. We especially appreciated the water filter in the kitchen and on the shower. We felt clean after showering, not like we showered in the ocean. It is the little things that make a stay enjoyable. The kitchen was well appointed. I cooked every night and had everything I needed. We loved the backyard. It was huge for a beach house. Our dogs had a blast running around. And I loved all the plants. If we come back to SGI, we would rent this house again.
Although the photos were lovely, they did not do this house justice. Deceptively small by street view, we had TONS of room, even when we had 3 additional family members spend the night. The owners were AMAZING to work with and extremely helpful and accommodating. We will absolutely be back to Howl at ghe Moon, as will my daughter and her friends and family. Thank you Howell family for a wonderful vacation home!!!
Chuck and Christina has a great little place on SGI for family and friends(furry ones too). The property can sleep up to 8 with 2 bedrooms. Great amenities for family fun indoors and outdoors. Has ample of indoor space with 4 tvs, tons of board games, and a super cool spacious fenced in beach oriented backyard. Outside one can sit and watch tv in the fan cooled outdoor screen in patio, tan it up upstairs on the sun patio and/or beach it up in their spacious sand filled backyard where you can grill, play beach games, hang out by fire pit, chill out under the umbrella tables or take a nap in the hammock under the shady palm trees. Just a 2 minute walk to the ocean, this beach retreat will have you “howling” to return again soon. Thanks C&C for your communication before, during and after our stay. When we return again to SGI, we will definitely stay again at Howl at the Sea.
This place was great. The house was clean and offered everything we needed. The back porch and sun deck were great and felt very private. The location was perfect and offered access to the beach and restaurants also. We would highly recommend.
Prompt communication by texts. Provided detailed information regarding house, like locks and tv, etc. Every little thing you needed and more was there.
Eveything was wonderful. Plenty of room for everyone. Our hosts had lots of different family oriented games for our use. I especially loved the screened in porch.
