• Jul. 6, 2009 - Planning a trip to St. Simons Island? Traffic Pattern is now changed.

Effective 7/5/09, all traffic coming onto the Island will bear right on Kings Way and continue straight to the Village area. If you wish to go north, you will still come in on Kings Way and then take the first left turn on to Sea Island Road. This project they are calling the Gateway Project will ultimately be a loop among Kings Way, Sea Island and Demere Roads, much like a huge traffic circle. 

 The two round-abouts which were finished last year—the first at the north end close to the Sea Island Stables and Christ Church and the second one at the intersection of Demere and Frederica Roads, are in my opinion a successful tool to keep traffic moving. 
 
If you have any questions about these changes or any questions about our area, please give me a call. I always welcome the opportunity to talk about my favorite place on earth!

• Jul. 1, 2009 - Movie Night Under the Stars on St. Simons Island

Looking for a FREE fun, family outing on St. Simons Island? In Neptune Park right at the Casino in the Village you can view on a 36 ft wide, 25 ft. high movie screen movies under the stars. All you need bring along is your lawn chair or blanket and enjoy the movie while visiting and picnicking with your friends and family. The Park opens at 4 pm and the movie presentation begins at dusk. 

 JMM Productions is presenting Transformers on 7/3/09 and then on 7/19 Grease, 8/14’s selection is Harry Potter and then 9/6/09 is Star Wars, Return of the Jedi.
 
I went to this summer’s first movie selection and took my two grandchildren along and a great time was had by all. I don’t think I am alone in savoring a fun recreational opportunity at NO CHARGE!

• Nov. 17, 2008 - Shoe Drive to Benefit SOLES4SOULS!

Nashville based Soles4Souls facilitates the donations of both new and used shoes to aid the hurting and needy worldwide. It is estimated that Americans have 1.5 billion pairs of unused shoes lying in our closets. This charity can use these shoes to make a tangible difference in someone’s life. Here at Beachcomber Properties, we want to participate in this cause and ask that you clean out your closets and come by our office at 539 Ocean Blvd. in the Village on St. Simons Island to drop off your “gently worn” shoes. These donations can include shoes for men, women and children, casual, sport shoes or dress shoes. 

 If you would care to read about the organization, you may go to www.giveshoes.org
or call our office 912/638-0697.
 
Thank you!

• Jun. 24, 2008 - Calling All Fishermen!

If salt water fishing is your thing, allow me to introduce you to St. Simons Island, GA. Whether you want to charter a boat, crab, fish from a pier or bridge, or just explore our vast estuary system-the Golden Isles is just the ticket.

Right off the Torras Causeway coming on to St. Simons Island, you will find the Golden Isles Marina which is a full service facility offering dry dock storage or wet slips, marine supplies, gas and oil, laundry facilities and plenty of dock space for transient traffic. Service to the local airport in Brunswick and courtesy cars are available for overnight guests. Local businesses are located there to aid you in exploring the wonderful fishing and tour opportunities our area has to offer. The marina is adjacent to the Inter Coastal Waterway, making it a perfect location for all boaters.

Adjacent to the Marina is a condo complex called Riverwatch where I have a gorgeous unit listed for sale. This unit even comes with 2 Schwinn scooters, so if you arrive by boat, you don't need to keep a car here! Your scooters will be available to take you where you need to go, and at 117 mpg, you can go quite a ways!

I have included below a link to view this phenomenal unit that boasts a separate lock-out unit for additional rental flexibility and potential. Come visit our delightful locale and try it on for size. You just may want to purchase your own Island retreat.

Click Riverwatch Condo to see this great property.
