Family vacation
This property is wonderful, the house is amazing, plenty of room for 15 of us. Direct access to the beach, nice pool and the location of the home is remote enough (10 minutes from town) that we did not leave unless we went as a group. Great place for a family get together. We already booked for next year

Big Family Get Away
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great destination for multiple families. Plenty of space to get away from loud children or if you just want some peace and quite to read a book. Public trail was busier than expected but not as problematic as feared.

Spring break - Turtley Rad
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The vacation home has a lovely view and decks were amazing. Comfortable beds, plenty of towels and beach towels. As the weather wasn’t overly warm we enjoyed the heated pool. The staff at the rental company was amazing with answering all my questions and helping coordinate this last min rental. We saw numerous large sharks very close to the shore.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Many electrical outlets don't work (on all floors). One dishwasher doesn't work (this has been reported in many reviews). One washing machine works sporadically, one washing machine smells rancid (don't wash your clothes in it).

Wonderful Week on SGI
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have been taking family beach vacations for over 40 years and this ranks up as the best one every! Turtley Rad was a great layout for socializing with family or finding quiet time to relax. The kitchen is on the smaller size for a house that big, but we found it to be well equipped with all the pots, pans, serving bowls, dishes and silverware that we needed. The house is about a 20 minute drive from "downtown" but we don't go out to dinner so that was fine with us! The house is older, so it could use some TLC like fixing some cabinets in the kitchen and repairing the second dishwasher, but that didn't detract from our stay. The biggest inconvenience was no bathroom on the first floor for our son staying in that room...but he showered in the outdoor private shower and loved it and just used our bathroom as needed. We already booked our trip for 2024 and are looking forward to another great trip to St George Island!

Turtley Rad review
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Extremely disappointing house. The trundle bed upstairs has springs sticking through. My niece had to fold 3 blankets to be able to sleep on. The furniture is very tired. The individual sofa sleeper looked like it came from Goidwill. Sleepers r usually in a separate room or game room. Two were in the main gathering room where u would not put ppl. We could not use them. Several receptacles didn't work. One person could not use their C-pap bc of this. There was an open, moldy hold leaking water above one shower. Tge kitchen was full of useless trinkets. 4 wine openers, 3 cheese graters. Every drawer n cabinet was filled so we had to compact all to be able to put food items in. There were about 15 beautiful serving bowls n platters but the cookware was abysmal. Looked like beat up items from thrift store, no large pots. If u want to cook for more than 10 ppl bring large pots. There were 2 6 at slow cookers, one did not work. Coming down from the top floor in the elevator it paused so long between each floor that I started reading the emergency info. We did enjoy the icemaker and my king size mattress was excellent.

Wonderful Memories
Our family of 12, ages ranging 59 to 1yr., had such a wonderful, relaxing family vacation. The home was beautiful, comfortable, so well stocked, and abundance of room. Having the beach just outside our door was amazing. The neighborhood was peaceful. We had such a good time on the Island.

Big Family Vacation
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was well-stocked and laid out to enjoy for an extended family vacation. Room for everyone to eat and relax (two living areas and two large dining tables). Easy beach access and the elevator was key to my grandmother getting up and down between floors. Three total fridges, two dishwashers, and two sets of washers and dryers made this perfect for our group. Everyone talked about how nice and comfortable the house was. We immediately settled in.

Large party home
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved the location and the amount of guests this home could accommodate but it is a little tired and in need of some love! The bottom floor bunk room and pool room are not air conditioned and the top floor including a king bedroom and 2nd bunk room stay very warm all of the time. Fans in these rooms help but if you need to be cool at night you may find this miserable. Love the 2 large dining tables in the common area but all the chairs and stools are in need of attention - very worn and wobbly! Love the seating on the balconies and the location to Bob Sykes Cut. The kitchen appliances are all due to be replaced as well but pretty well stocked.

Great Family Week on SGI
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our second year staying at Turtley Rad and it was another great year. The owners have made some really nice improvements since last year (new living room furniture, repaired the ice maker and second dishwasher). While it is definitely on the more secluded side of the island, we enjoyed watching the boat traffic through Sikes Cut, and the sunsets were beautiful. We saw countless dolphin through the week. The only reason we aren’t returning to this amazing house next year is because we need a smaller sized. If we ever need an 8 bedroom again, we’ll do our best to come back to this one!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First, the size of the house was perfect for our reunion of 16 adults and two small children. The view from the house is to die for. Wonderful covered porches to view the ocean. The beds were comfortable and the beddings were clean. However, there were a few issues: one of the double door in the main room was not functioning. The light in the main room was out so it was hard to see to do laundry there. The kitchen was disorganized in that it took some work to find things. The ovens were somewhat dirty and there was no oven mitts anywhere. The furniture were well worn. Despite those, our stay was wonderful. Forgotten Shores staff were helpful, friendly, and communicated consistently with updates as needed.

A big shout out to Lindsay and Jamie at Forgotten Shores - they are professional, friendly and go out of their way to ensure you have a great trip.

Review of stay at Turtley Road
Rating Details: The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was nice for our group of 17. A few surprises , 1. The downstairs was not used at all due to the bedroom being isolated with no bathroom on that floor . (2) the price was increased due to availability which I understand, but the increase was too much for the actual condition of the house It is an older house at a prime location We would return to the house, but would hope a few minor needed repairs would be done..Overall a 3.5 compared to expectations The general condition wasa 4. The location was a 5.The property was clean and rated a 4.The property management group was responsive and rated a 5.

Wonderful time at Turtley Rad
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a wonderful week in a beautiful home. It was our second year with 19 people, good weather and a comfortable and well-furnished home. We eat in for all of our meals, and one could not ask for a better equipped kitchen. Everything one could one and a few more tools. Two dishwashers (though one needed repair), an ice maker, two refrigerators, all kinds of small appliances and utensils. We did have to call for a door repair on Sunday and Monday morning the repairman was there and did an excellent job. The pool was clean and the outdoor equipment was very welcome. Also, the bikes and canoes through VayKay were well used and in great condition. Our family ranged from 2 years old to 78 and everybody had a great time. The elevator was especially great for our older folks and for transporting luggage and food. We hope to return next year if the price isn’t too much more!

Ultimate Beach House
Our family of about 20 loved the House. Four stories right on the beach and loved it. Each floor has a balcony facing the beach! It’s a great set up for big families. The pool was perfect..we had some maintenance issues but they were fixed quickly. I stayed on the very top floor which I would recommend to grab..it has a steam option in the double shower. Two dishwashers made our big meals easier to clean up as well. Bring your grocery essentials (like your hard to find off the path stuff) the store on the island is small. Everyone in our crew had a great time here!

Christmas Stay
Overall the house was well laid out and in good condition. I would say that the size of the kitchen for the size of the house was fairly small and the appliance in the kitchen needed some love. One dishwasher door was extremely difficult to close and the oven was a bit scary to use.
