Great family place!

We had 16 adults (19-88) celebrating my 80th birthday. The location was perfect with lots of privacy in native Florida surroundings. We all enjoyed having fun in the pool and on the beach every day. The younger generation enjoyed fishing, kayaking and 3 of the bikes were usable. Be sure to bring extra towels, beach towels and kitchen towels.

Great house for big family vacation

We really enjoyed our stay. The house had plenty of room for my parents, siblings and our kids. We loved all the big decks with plenty of seating and the convenience of being such a short drive or walk to the beach. Ashley, the host, was super responsive when needed and we’d definitely stay here again.

Nice place for large group

The pool area was nice and the kids loved it. Views from the balconies were beautiful. Not a bad walk to the beach. We never did figure out how to turn the light on in the downstairs bedroom. And could use some minor repairs. It would be helpful if the remotes were labeled. And if the fans in the pool area worked we did enjoy our time there!

Relaxing getaway

We loved our stay at Happy Trails. We had a few minor issues but they were quickly resolved. The property was clean, nice private location and easy drive to the beach access. We also enjoyed the community pool area as the house pool temp was still a bit cold in early May. We definitely want to return.

Happy Trails

Our family group of 6 adults and 5 children (age 13 and under) fit comfortably in the house and there was ample space inside and out to accommodate everyone for meals. The walk to the very private beach was pretty direct and took 8-10 minutes to walk. We very much enjoyed our stay!

Perfect!

We stayed here to have an adult weekend away and it did not disappoint. The house has a perfect location, close to amenities but not right on top of your neighbor. The amenities of the home are great; pool, bikes, cornhole, etc. The beds were comfortable and the house has everything you need. We can't wait to have a return stay!

Secluded, clean and fun!

This was such a fun place to stay! The home was clean upon arrival and there was plenty of room for our group of 13 to spread out. We loved the private feel of the property on this secluded street. We were able to bird watch from the back porch. We made plenty of use of the pool, bikes, corn hole and especially the ping pong tables. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Place

We loved everything about Happy Trails. We had a party of 7, young adults and a child…also our Bulldog came for the trip. It was super clean and included all the basic needs we could think of. Plenty of space for everyone, and the arcade games were a big hit with everyone on the cooler nights. We enjoyed the area!! I would recommend this for anyone wanting to enjoy St.George Island.

Great place, loved the pool and location/neighborhood

We gathered here for large family anniversary celebration and were overall very impressed and loved staying here. The best feature was the private pool, which we used with our young kids extensively. The rooms and beds were very nice and comfortable. You get a good exercise walking to the beach, but it's very doable. The property is within a gated community and feels very well maintained and protected, with many additional features beyond the rest of St. George Island, like a nice large community pool, hikes, and beach access with fewer people on the beaches (public access is farther up the beach). Highly recommended.

Great place

This is a nice, clean house just a short walk to the beach or Bayshore. They have stocked it with just about everything you would want for an outdoor activity from bicycles to kayaks and fishing poles! The pool was very nice and offered another choice for getting wet. Although this is a community, the way it is laid out gives every lot privacy and you will quickly forget you have neighbors! There are a few maintenance items that need to be taken care of but nothing major. We will definitely be back!
