We are considering renting a beach house in May in St. George Island, and would appreciate any information and photos anyone has about the island. Good restaurants? Nearest grocery?

Thanks in advance!

I think there are a few shops and restaurants on the actual island, but mostly you cross the bridge and go to Apalachicola for dining and grocery shopping.
There are many fine restaurants in Apalach, and the Piggly Wiggly is okay (actually, their wine selection is quite good, and reasonably priced.)

Oh, terrific! Thanks--I didn't know Apalachicola was that close, I figured it was about 30 min away.

There's also a small market on the island that's very handy if you run out of something. They have a very good meat section.

Well, that's about right. It's 20-30 minutes away.
There is Eastpoint, too, but it does not quite have Apalach's charm.
With a small grocery store that Casey mentions, I think you will be fine.

Thanks again. Do you all know, is it as pretty as Ft. Walton, etc?
