Awesome place

Beth was a great host. We stayed for a month and she regularly checked in to ensure we had everything we needed. We have stayed in many guest houses over the years and this was by far the best furnished and equipped home we have had the opportunity to stay at. We would highly recommend Summer Salt cottage. Thank you for sharing your wonderful home.

The Best Time!

Beautiful house with all of the amenities! So close to the beach but a lovely pool right outside the door. Close to all of the conveniences but still felt very private. We had a beautiful view of the harvest moon, enjoyed lovely meals, and had plenty of space for our group. We loved how thoughtful the hosts were - so many amenities on hand. We already made reservations here for our next trip!

LOVE SUMMER SALT!

Not only is this home comfortable, it’s fully stocked, perfectly located, and you cannot find a better host! We stayed the month of February, cooked most meals at home without needing anything ( utensils, pots pans etc ). Spices are even provided! Beds are comfortable, the shower is amazing, extra pillows and blankets. You name it , the owners have thought of it and provided it! Can’t wait to return! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!

Heaven by the Gulf

Although the weather was terrible, we had a blast. The home was decorated perfectly, very clean with an outstanding view. The hosts were exceptional. We enjoyed cooking and going out, even in the rain.

Summer Salt, the Perfect Vacation Home

Summer Salt has become a favorite vacation home on SGI for our family. It is sparkling clean and well equipped for cooking and other activities. The pool is perfect for our family. The easy access to the beach, children's playground, and center of the island are also plus factors for us.

Perfectly appointed beach house

We loved staying at Summer Salt. The cleanliness, comfort, and accommodations made it a home away from home. We enjoyed the view of the gulf from the balcony and the convenient location relative to St George Island restaurants and shopping. Would recommend the location and the host! A+

Our Favorite Home Away from Home

Summer Salt is the best in so many ways. There is a beautiful view, nice pool, and the perfect location on SGI. We have lodged several times here and will continue to go back. The home is comfortable and relaxing and a short distance to our favorite restaurant Paddy's. The host is very accommodating and will answer any questions. Thank you for sharing your home with us on SGI. Here’s to more memories there in the future.

Best Property Managers

Summer Salt is a dream place to stay! We loved the location, right on the corner across from the beach access. Normally, when we vacation there is always something in the kitchen we end up needing, but not at Summer Salt. Our favorite part about this rental is how personable the property managers are. They reached out several times seeing if we needed anything. To our family, that means so much! We can’t wait to vacation there again next summer!

A Cottage Paradise

Our stay at Summer Salt gave us what we so desperately needed ... relaxation. Staying there felt just as comfortable as being at home - minus the worries. The cottage was impeccably clean and well stocked. The view from the front porch was amazing! Everything you could ask for was provided. The hosts were readily available and more than accommodating. We were able to enjoy several activities suggested by Beth to make our December visit to the island quite memorable. We're already looking forward to our next visit.
