Welcome to Saltwater Charlie's!
Located canal-front and just a 6-minute walk or 2-minute bicycle ride to the Gulf beach, this Cypress home is found within the prestigious St. George Plantation community and is surrounded by pines and palmettos for the ultimate in privacy and relaxation. Elegantly rustic, Saltwater Charlie’s has a casual and relaxed vibe with an upscale feel.
The open living area is bathed in natural light w/ water views, 2 leather sofas, recliners and a large, flat screen TV w/ DVD player (sorry, fireplace is not available). A nearby game table is the perfect place for a family boardgame, puzzle or card game and a separate dining table seats up to 6 with additional dining options outside on the covered deck.
The beautifully updated gourmet kitchen boasts granite counters, tile backsplash, gas range and one-of-a-kind Cypress cabinets. Stainless steel appliances, a dedicated food pantry and a separate desk area complete this space, all with a gorgeous canal view! A full-size washer/dryer and utility room are located just past the kitchen and the breakfast bar seats up to 3.
The furnished and screened-in porch just off of the kitchen features comfortable lounge seating and a large, daybed swing for those lazy afternoons.
Just past the kitchen, two guest bedrooms (King and Queen bedroom) share a hall bathroom with combination tub/shower, and quick and easy access to a convenient elevator (the elevator travels between the ground level and the 1st floor only).
The top floor spacious Master Suite features ocean-hued stained-glass windows, a King-sized bed, large walk-in closet and private bathroom with bathtub and separate shower. A furnished and covered private balcony offers grand views of the Apalachicola Bay and is a great spot to enjoy the sunset.
Your private screened pool with spill-over spa is surrounded by natural vegetation for a tranquil swim and the covered carport offers plenty of shaded space to entertain with picnic table, propane grill and fish cleaning sink. A hot/cold outdoor shower w/ waterfall showerhead makes beach or pool cleanup a breeze. (Pool and Spa heat are not available.)

Comfortable stay
The property and house were very clean and comfortable. It’s so quiet and peaceful. The pool was perfect for our kids to play in and the screen added the much needed protection from the bugs. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with what we needed. The beach is not far at all and easy to access.

Anniversary Stay
Everything was well maintained and clean. If you're planning on staying in April the pool will be a bit colder. The dock was great, view was beautiful, but if you plan on being outside in the evening bring bug spray! Overall experience was wonderful!

Our favorite house so far
We have rented a house on SGI twice a year for almost twenty years. This is my favorite so far. Comfortable beds, great showers, beautiful views, really lovely home. Well appointed kitchen. We enjoyed having a private dock. The water is pretty shallow, but perfect for putting in kayaks. Great bird watching
