Lazy Daze, St George Island, Florida Vacation Rental by Owner

This is our second year staying at Lazy Dazs, it’s been great two years in a row! The view of the gulf is great even though you aren’t beach front. The path is right across the street and very convenient. The little ones liked the pool on rougher wave days and the fenced in yard for dogs is great!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hi Erin We are so happy that you enjoyed your 2nd stay at Lazy Daze! We hope you will return again! Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

We love Lazy Daze! We have stayed multiple times and will continue. The house is clean and well appointed. Beach access is easy and the amenities are abundant!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hi Megan We are so happy that you enjoy Lazy Daze and the amenities it has. We hope you will return again!

We have been coming to SGI for many years, but this was our first stay at Lazy Daze. We loved it! Our family of four and little pup found it to be perfect for us. The hot tub, pool, and game room were a hit with our teenagers! The fenced area for dogs is great (yet our little naughty pup squeezed his way through the slits in the fence!). The beach path is right in front of the house and the gulf views from the front deck are amazing. Even the large living room TV was a hit so we could watch the March Madness finals. We will definitely be back.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hi Kelly We are so happy that you enjoyed Lazy Daze and al the amenities! The game room is great for families to enjoy time together! We love that the beach is just steps away! It is amazing that your dog squeezed through the picket fence! Luckily SGI is slow moving so he was not hurt. We hope you will return to Lazy Daze or one of our other properties in the future. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

Just got back from a spring break trip! The hot tub was amazing bc the weather was chilly. It also gave the teens a place to hang out. We will definitely be back!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hi Allison, We are so happy you enjoyed Lazy Daze and the many amenities! SGI is a great place for an uncrowded spring break. It can get a bit chilly but the hot tub at the house is a great solution!! We hope you will return to Lazy Daze or one of our other homes in the future. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

We are SGI visitors since 1991 and so happy we found Lazy Daze a few years ago! It's a perfect home for our family and fur babies! Love the location, the house, the deck and beach/ocean view. The pool is wonderful and the hot tub & games are so fun! Tom and Lucinda are great about responding if anything is needed. 10+!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Cecilia Thank you for once again staying at Lazy Daze. We are so happy that you enjoyed New Years at Lazy Daze! We appreciate you staying at our home when you come to SGI. We look forward to your next visit! Warmest wishes for 2024! Tom and Lucinda

We stayed two weeks for Christmas this year, our second time staying at Lazy Daze, and we’re already booked to come back in July. We love the location, the view, the well-equipped kitchen, the fact that our fur-babies are welcome…..well, just everything about the place. Can’t wait to return in July.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Happy New Year Alan and Renee! Thank you for once again staying at Lazy Daze. We are so happy that you enjoyed Christmas on SGI and at Lazy Daze! We look forward to your stay in July! Warmest wishes, Tom and Lucinda

We had an awesome week at the Lazy Daze home. Tom & Lucinda have seemed to go to great lengths to make a great vacation home. The kitchen has everything you could need to prepare any meal and we cooked most meals in daily. The only issue we had with the home was deciding what to do next! There are various board games, a game consule, many books to choose from for both kids and adults for the readers in the family and even a stereo system. The views from both decks are wonderful for sunrises and sunsets. We were even able to watch dolphins frolic and play near the beach most days! A beach access path located directly across the road from the house made it a quick walk to having toes in the sand. The pool and hot tub was regularly maintained and very clean. A pool table and foosball underneath the home was a great bonus and used often. There is an assortment of beach supplies that includes chairs, umbrellas, coolers, a wagon to haul your stuff in, toys for the kids plus much more. They even provided a credit through VayK Gear for extras such as bikes, skim boards, kayaks, etc! Thank you Tom & Lucinda! You not only have a great home, but provide a wonderful experience for making a relaxing and memorable vacation.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hi Karen, we are thrilled that you and your family enjoyed your stay at Lazy Daze! We try hard to provide everything we think guests would like during their vacation- thank you for noticing!! We hope you will consider staying at Lazy Daze or one of our other homes again in the future!

Just finished a week at Lazy Daze. It was probably more than we needed, but it was clean, across from the beach, and the pool was wonderful for the August heat. Could not have picked a better place to stay and are looking forward to coming back again.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hi Ted, We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay at Lazy Daze! We love the the views and the pool too! Hope you will return to Lazy Daze or one of our other homes in the future. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

This was our 6th stay at LazyDaze! We love it! It's perfect for our 2 kids and 2 dogs. Very well appointed, accommodating, comfortable and clean!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Megan Thank you for once again staying at Lazy Daze! We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay and look forward to your next visit. Have a great day, Tom and Lucinda

What a great trip to SGI! The stay at LazyDaze was awesome! Perfect location. Lots of amenities. Easy walk to beach with path right across the street. The water parade was lots of fun! Our grown kids and grandkids had a blast! Owners Lucinda and Tom were very easy to work with! We will definitely be back! Didn’t want to leave!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Arnolds! We are so happy you enjoyed Lazy Daze and July 4th on SGI! We hope you will return again soon!! Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

We stayed at Lazy Daze for a week and loved every minute of it. We still had a great view of the beach and a very short walk on a private path. The home was super spacious and open and in great shape. We had 5 adults, 2 kids, and German shepherds without issue and with plenty of room! The pictures did not do it justice. The pool and under home game room were great! I highly recommend and look forward to staying again!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Erin We are so happy you enjoyed Lazy Daze and all the amenities. We love the location and views from the house! We hope you will return again in the future! Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

Just finishing up a month at Lazy Daze! Had a wonderful time and great weather. We were fortunate to be able to rent due to a last minute cancellation. We would love to stay again next February but it is already booked. Great views, nice outside furniture, hot tub, pool table, even a wagon for our grandson who visited. Quick responses from Tom and Lucinda to any questions we had. Well stocked kitchen, great views. We would definitely rent again!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hi Bart Thank you for staying at Lazy Daze for your winter vacation. We are so happy you enjoyed the house. Sorry the house is not available for next year. The regular winter guests (the ones that canceled) will be returning. We will let you know if we get any openings in our homes. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

We enjoyed this lovely home for the month of January! Tom and Lucinda are perfect hosts! We appreciate all the info about things to do in Saint George. Also your offers to assist us when we had car trouble!! Loved the view of the beach and how easy a walk it is! Your home was equipped with everything you needed. We will always choose one of your homes when we come to Saint George.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hi Carolyn and Carl Thank you for your re[eat stays at our homes. We appreciate you selecting our homes and look forward to your next stay. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

Dec 26-Jan 1 . We had a wonderful vacation with our son , daughter in law and 3 grand boys. The house had everything we needed and we used every square inch. We very much appreciated the beach equipment and bicycles! I appreciated the memory foam bed in a great big way. The only soreness I had was self inflected from climbing the steps at the light house. Weather was to cool for the pool, but the hot tub was used daily. I highly recommend renting a golf cart. We don’t live close to town, so for everything to be within walking distance or a short golf cart ride was nice. This location was also close to our Florida friends that we were able to visit. The owners were always available for questions! Thank you for the memories. We hope to come back.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hi Karen We are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay at Lazy Daze! Thank you for selecting one of our homes and hope you will stay again in the future. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

We just spent a wonderful week at Lazy Daze. This home is so fun and has a great beach vibe. We loved it. Great hot tub, fenced yard, pool table and even a video game. Ocean views from the windows and deck. We usually stay on the beach side, but will definitely be back to Lazy Daze! Owners are great at responding to questions. Thanks Tom and Lucinda for sharing your house with us.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hi David and April Thank you so much for staying at Lazy Daze. we are so happy you enjoyed the house and the many amenities. We hope you will stay again. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

Just returned home from a week at Lazy Daze. This home was perfect for our small family. The location was great and beach access was perfect. Couldn't believe a hair dryer was furnished, as well as beach towels! Not to mention all the other things like the hot tub and pool table. We found the home clean and were even able to access it early. We will definitely be staying here again. Thanks Tom and Lucinda!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hi Debbie We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay at Lazy Daze! We look forward to your returning again! Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

I have never rented directly from owners but after this experience, I will never rent any other way. Tom and Lucinda have thought of everything to make your stay enjoyable. Beach towels, beach gear, a cart to haul things to the beach, bikes and a hot tub. Can't forget the pool table, Foosball table and video game console. The house was very clean, kitchen well stocked (though we did little cooking!). Furnishing a notebook with all the local information was nice. The view from the deck was amazing and the wire guard made it safe for both kids and pups! Internet access was much appreciated, as two of us had work emails to answer. Great location with easy beach access directly across the street. The house is perfect for smaller families. We will definitely return to Lazy Daze.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Dear Debbie We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay at Lazy Daze. We try hard to provide all the amenities that guests will enjoy. We hope you will stay again in in the future. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

We agree with all the positive comments already posted in the previously submitted reviews. During our recent stay at Lazy Daze we personally experienced the timely responsiveness of the owners, a fabulous rental property, relaxing location, overwhelming amenities and a thoroughly enjoyable, and pleasant experience on the island. Tom and Lucinda are absolutely world class owners and execute to perfection as rental managers. They are professionals, intimately involved in the day to day operation of this lovely home, were responsive to our needs, and take pride in ensuring a high quality experience for their guests. We feel blessed to have had the opportunity to stay at Lazy Daze and to be pamper with the owner’s outstanding service, clean, organized well cared for rental property, out of the ordinary amenities, etc. They make every effort to think of everything and to make your stay enjoyable. We absolutely recommend that you consider this experience.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Peter, thank you for the wonderful compliments, that really means a lot. We are so happy you enjoyed your stay and hope you will return again in the future. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

Our stay at Lazy Daze was amazing! We will definitely stay in this home again. Perfect location and extremely easy access to the beach. The pool, game room and mini-arcade were perfect compliments when you are not on the beach. Tom and Lucinda were great to work with and are extremely attentive. The home was very clean and we really appreciated the Keurig! Wonderful experience!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Michelle; We are so happy that you enjoyed Lazy Daze! We hope you will return again! Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

This was our second time staying at Lazy Dayz ! This home has everything you could ask for. It is convenient to town, right across from the beach, has bikes, a pool, a hottub, pool table, floats, beach chairs and everything else you would need for the beach. The owners are always in touch to answer any questions and are very nice and easy to deal with if anything comes up. I highly recommend their homes!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Christy We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay at The Blue Marlin. We appreciate you returning to our home and hope you will stay again in the future. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

We stayed for a week. House was well stocked and clean. Owners were very responsive. View from the deck was amazing, and the beach access was directly across the street. Pool and hot tub were well-kept and clean. The game room was great for the entire family. Would absolutely stay here again! As a matter of fact, we tried booking for next year even before we left, but the week we needed was already taken. Great property. Great location. Great owners. Would absolutely recommend!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hi Susan We are so happy that you enjoyed Lazy Daze and its location. Thank you for being flexible with dates for next year- we look forward to your return! Have a great summer! Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

We have stayed at Lazy Daze several times throughout the many years. It is by far our favorite. The house is perfectly located, has the best lay out, well equipped kitchen and easiest set up for dogs. Our kids love all the extra amenities they have to offer as well. We will be back!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Megan Thank you again for selecting Lazy Daze for your family vacation. We are so happy that you enjoy the amenities. We look forward to you staying again in the future. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

First of all Tom and Lucinda are the best! This is the second vacation home of theirs we have stayed in and they never disappoint. Extremely clean and well stocked. They think of everything. Beds were comfortable and we had plenty of room for 6 adults. You feel like you are beachside with the great views and very short walk. The pool is amazing and perfect for the hot July afternoons. We had great weather and the best week! Thanks again to our wonderful hosts, we will definitely be back!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Lisa We are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay at Lazy Daze! We appreciate you thinking of us when you come to SGI and hope you will return. Warm regards, Lucinda and Tom

We had a fabulous week at Lazy Daze! The house has a great layout, a well-stocked kitchen, plenty of towels and amenities. The location is great and the view is amazing! The beach is such a short walk. We didn't miss being beachside at all. We loved the deck and spent every morning and evening gathering and enjoying the views. The pool, hot tub, and pool tub made this place a level above! We traveled with our teenage boys and they never wanted for anything to do. They've thought of everything here! Tom and Lucinda were excellent to work with and super responsive. I highly recommend Lazy Daze and wouldn't hesitate to rent from these owners again. SGI is our happy place!!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Karen, We are so happy that your family enjoyed Lazy Daze, the location and amenities. We appreciate you staying and hope you will stay at one of our homes again n the future. Warm Regards, Tom and Lucinda

We can't say enough good things about Lazy Daze. Tom and Lucinda made the reservation process simple and kept us informed of everything. The house has everything you need (kitchen very well stocked). The views of the Gulf from the front porch were awesome all day. Walking to the beach will not take long with the pathway directly across from the driveway. This made it easy for us to take our beach items and paddle board over to the enjoy the warm gulf. Plus it was easy to get over to watch the sunrise each morning. The pool, hot tub, pool table, foosball, bike and other beach items were a great addition too. There were plenty of things to do and still feel relaxed at the end of each day. Certainly would recommend this place for anyone. Our pet loved the place as well and the fenced decks allowed her to enjoy things too. You will not be disappointed. The owners quickly responded to concerns (ie cable/internet outage) that came up during our stay.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Greg and Tracy, We are so happy that you enjoyed Lazy Daze, it's location, views and amenities. We hope you return to SGI and stay in one of our homes again. Have a great summer, Tom and Lucinda

My family had the privilege of boing able to stay at Lazy Daze for January and February. The kitchen is well-stocked, the beds are comfortable, and the layout of the house is ideal for multiple people. The location provides easy access to the beach for plenty of walks to see the sunrise and sunset. It truly made for an amazing two months, and I would definitely recommend this property. Also, Tom and Lucinda were very flexible, responsive, and hospitable during our stay. As further proof of how much we enjoyed the trip, we have booked another of their properties for January and February of 2022z.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Robert, We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay at Lazy Daze! It was a pleasure to meet you! We look forward to your stay at Sunset Retreat next year!! Have a wonderful summer. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

This was our first visit to SGI and it won't be our last. It is a wonderful, quiet island and our stay at Lazy Daze was perfect! The home was clean and extremely well stocked with everything you need for your beach vacation. Tom and Lucinda were the perfect hosts, very responsive and took care of any concerns we had immediately. The views from the deck were amazing and we were fortunate to see dolphins and beautiful sunrises and sunsets. It is ideal for pets and our dogs had the best time traveling with us and seeing the beach for the first time. I can't say enough about our visit and our perfect family Christmas!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Kimberly, We are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay at Lazy Daze and wonderful SGI! We hope you will stay at one of our homes again in the future. Happy 2021, Tom and Lucinda

This was our first time visit to St. George Island. The Island is wonderful and the Lazy Daze beach house was a definite plus. It was clean and extremely well stocked with anything you would want or need during your stay. The location was perfect, right across from the beach with very easy access. The views were amazing, we watched beautiful sunrises and dolphins swimming in the ocean. Tom and Lucinda are very available if any questions arise so communication was great. St. George Island is dog friendly and Lazy Daze has a fenced in yard so it is perfect for dog lovers and ours were very happy to get to join us. It was wonderful Family Christmas!!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Kimberly, We are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay at Lazy Daze and wonderful SGI! We hope you will stay at one of our homes again in the future. Happy 2021, Tom and Lucinda

St. George is a hidden gem when it comes to Florida Beach destinations and that is a good thing! St. George offers the quintessential laid back beach vibe. We had a great week for our Fall vacation. Lazy Daze was the perfect place for our time at the beach. The location was fantastic - close to shops, restaurants, fishing, etc and just just across the street from the beach. We appreciated all the activities for our little kids from the pool to pool table, foosball to beach toys. There was tons of room inside and we were certainly spoiled by the large kitchen! We had everything we needed during our stay. The outdoor space was wonderful from the deck to having multiple places to wash off after beach time. We were afraid it would be too warm to enjoy the hot tub but it was perfect. We hated to leave but look forward to returning next year and hopefully for many more years to come!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Lindsay; We are thrilled you enjoyed Lazy Daze and St. George Island! We agree that it is the perfect place to relax and unwind. We try to provide all the amenities guests would enjoy while they travel to our homes and are so happy that you enjoyed them. We hope you will stay at Lazy Daze or one of our other homes again in the future. Happy holidays, Lucinda and Tom

Loved loved loved Lazy Daze. Will definitely stay there again. The house was perfectly situated immediately across from the walking trail onto the sand and ocean. We cooked all meals at the house (because of Covid concerns). The kitchen and house was extremely well stocked with everything from dishes, pots, pans, spices, etc. it’s a perfect set up for our fur babies. They could meander around the property freely while we were at the beach. They mostly hung out on the deck and ‘people watched’. No concerns about them escaping. Lazy Daze has been our favorite rental on SGI. We’ll stay there again for sure! Lots of toys and the pool and hot tub was perfect too. Highly recommend!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Alta; We are thrilled you enjoyed Lazy Daze and had a wonderful vacation! We try to provide all the amenities guests would enjoy while they travel to our homes and are so happy that you enjoyed them. We agree the location is perfect and our pups like to watch the action from the deck as well!! We hope you will stay at Lazy Daze or one of our other homes again in the future. Happy holidays, Lucinda and Tom

Owners are very involved with their rentals, good people! Only had one issue that was not resolved quickly, (hot tub not operating correctly) Owners got us a gift card to a local business as an apology. House was VERY well equipped. Cant believe we didn’t even use any of the extras , game room stuff, bikes, etc. Only draw back, and it’s small is that each bedroom doesn’t have it’s own bathroom. The pool was great . Plenary of seating outside in deck and pool area. Great house I would rent again, definitely will look at their other rentals as well!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Terri, We are glad you enjoyed your stay at Lazy Daze and SGI! We are so sorry that they could not get the hot tub working properly. As mentioned, it is a brand new hot tub that the company was having a difficult time pinpointing the issue- as you know, they replaced many parts trying to repair it (it has since been repaired). We are glad that your family were still able to enjoy the hot tub even though you could not adjust it to your specifications. We do have 2 houses that have a bathrooms for each bedroom if you are interested in the future. Have a great day, Tom and Lucinda

This house was amazing! Met Lucinda and Tom both in person and they were absolutely wonderful! The house (including kitchen) was fully stocked with everything we needed!!! We will sure be return renters to their propeties!!!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Sara; it was so nice to meet you!! We are thrilled that you enjoyed Lazy Daze and all the amenities. We hope you will return in the future. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

This was our first time staying on the West end of SGI and we absolutely loved it! The unobstructed views of the ocean were incredible and we watched the dolphins from the deck and living room windows everyday. Being able to come back from the beach and then enjoy the swimming pool in the evening was heaven. The hot tub was also a great way to relax at the end of our day. Tom and Lucinda were great to work with from the moment we booked our stay and were quick to respond to my husband with a question he had during our stay. We can't recommend this house enough. We stay on SGI twice a year and this has been my favorite stay so far with all the amenities this home provided. We are already looking at our dates for next year. Thanks Tom and Lucinda for sharing your home. It was perfect!!!!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Kim and Ken; thank you for staying at Lazy Daze. We are thrilled you enjoyed the amenities and the location! We hope you will stay at Lazy Daze again or one of our other homes on SGI or in Gatlinburg, TN. Have a great day! Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

Was our first time coming to SGI we love the house that we rented which was Lazy Daze from Tom and Lucinda. The house had everything you could ask for plenty of kitchen ware. We spent a lot of our time at the pool which my daughter loves to swim. I love the table arcade brought back some memories. Also loved the Island wasn’t commercialized very peaceful and relaxing!!! Thank you for letting us rent your beautiful house for a week!! I didn’t want to leave!! Hope to come back in the future!!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Pam We are so happy you enjoyed Lazy Daze and St. George Island!! SGI is a special place - very peaceful and beautiful! We hope you will return to one of our homes in the future. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

Our July stay at Lazy Days was wonderful. The well equipped kitchen made life so much easier. The house is clean and well cared for. We traveled to SGI with five adults, a five year old and a two year old. They loved the pool, the short walk to the beach, eating on the large deck and enjoying the view. The gates to the front and back decks are perfect for traveling with a two year old. The abundance of umbrellas to take to the beach along with beach folding chairs and even a cart to help carry it all to the beach made the whole thing even more enjoyable. Any questions I had were quickly answered by Tom and Lucinda before we left and during out stay. After a thirteen hour drive to arrive at SGI it was a wonderful experience. Thank you again.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Debbie We are thrilled that you enjoyed Lazy Daze and all the amenities. We try to provide our guests with everything they need for a relaxing enjoyable stay. We hope you will consider staying in one of our TN cabins or SGI homes again for your next vacation. Have a wonderful day, Tom and Lucinda

Lazy Daze is a great First Tier home with excellant ocean views. It is a short walk to the beach, and centrally located on the Island. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool and hot tub. The house was well appointed and the owners Tom and Lucinda were wonderful communicators and answered questions quickly. We loved the dining room and deck looking out over the ocean. I recommend renting from these owners.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Elaine; we are so happy you enjoyed Lazy Daze and all the amenities we provide. We hope you will stay at one of our homes again in the future. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

Lazy Daze is a great home, with wonderful views and a VERY short walk to the beach trail. The kitchen amenities were perfect and we enjoyed eating all of our dinners outside while taking in the ocean view. The hot tub, game room and pool are a must! Tom checked in on us day 1 and they sent a follow up email, answering any questions promptly!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Elizabeth; We are so happy that you enjoyed Lazy Daze and all the amenities. We love the location too!! We hope you will consider one of our homes again for your next vacation. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

Tom and Luncinda thought about everything with this house and were so easy to work with. Lazy Daze was perfectly located to everything on SGI and had beautiful gulf views from the kitchen table and front deck. Super pet friendly! We have stayed at several properties over the years but Lazy Daze was by far the best as it had a great fenced in yard for our pups and the new deck with secure fencing and gates was a huge added bonus for us since it allowed us all to kick back and completely relax on the front deck without keeping the dogs on their leashes or worrying about them getting out. Our teenagers LOVED the game room downstairs, the bikes, pool and especially hammock where they spent several hours a day when not at the beach. We will definitely return in the coming years...just maybe a little later in Spring when it's a tad bit warmer. Nonetheless it didn't stop us Michiganders from taking a brisk dip in the pool and ocean. We definitely fell in love with SGI, the people, beaches, restaurants and Lazy Daze!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Francine; Thank you for your kind words! We are so happy that you enjoyed Lazy Daze and all the amenities. We try to offer all the amenities our guests would enjoy. We look forward to your return! Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

From day one, Tom and Lucinda were excellent to work with, taking time to answer all of our questions, and very communicative. The property was as described and the extra amenities were wonderful (bikes, games, detailed book with lots of useful and fun information, well equipped kitchen, etc.) After having a not so great rental experience in the past (NOT with these owners!!!) they set all of our worries to rest and we would not hesitate to rent from them again in the future! We had such fun exploring this section of the "Forgotten Coast" and look forward to a return trip in the future. Thanks so much Tom and Lucinda, for being excellent hosts!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Ron and Cherie; We are thrilled that you enjoyed Lazy Daze and we were able to change your impression of vacation rentals. We try hard to provide all the amenities that guests enjoy. We hope you will stay at one of our SGI homes or Gatlinburg Cabins in the future. Happy Holidays, Tom and Lucinda

T
om & Lucinda were terrific hosts. We were very happy with how well equipped the kitchen was since we have to cook most of our meals due to family member food allergies. The house must have been recently remodeled and is in great shape. Pool was clean and temperature perfect when there in October. Unfortunately we had to evacuate early from hurricane Michele and again owners kept us informed and what was expected of us to stay safe. Hope to return again in the near future.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Dear Todd: We are so happy that you enjoyed your time at Lazy Daze. We provide many amenities in our homes to make our guests stay comfortable. The house has been recently renovated. Unfortunately Hurricane Michael interrupted your trip. We hope when you return to St. George Island you will stay in one of our homes again. Warm Regards, Tom and Lucinda

We had a wonderful time. Great location, Great Home.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Paul We are so happy that you enjoyed Lazy Daze. We try to make all of our vacation homes comfortable for our guests and supply many amenities to make their stay enjoyable. We hope you will stay at one of our homes in Tennessee or Florida again in the future. Have a wonderful day, Tom and Lucinda

Enjoyed Lazy Daze a lot! The home was spacious and close to the beach. The home was well equipped. Enjoyed the pool also!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hi Sandy We are so happy that you enjoyed Lazy Daze and all the amenities. We hope you will return to one of our homes in the future. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

Lazy Daze is a great place for a family vacationing. The pool, hot tub and gaming area are such a bonus. The house is well stocked and felt like home away from home.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Stacy We are so happy you enjoyed Lazy Daze. We feel that a vacation house should have many amenities that guests will enjoy. We added hot tubs and game-rooms to all our homes and they are a big hit. The well equipped kitchen is also very popular! Please consider our home again for your next stay on SGI or in Gatlinburg TN. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

Great experience! House was wonderful!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Arrice Thank you for staying in one of our homes again. We appreciate you selecting our homes for your vacations. We are so glad that you enjoyed Lazy Daze. We look forward to your next stay. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

We've been coming to the island for the last 15 years and this has been our favorite house so far! It is spacious, well-equipped and comfortable for all (including your furry friends) . We had a blast playing the arcade game (took us right back to childhood!) and loved the amenities this house offers. We will definitely be back next year...and the year after...

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hi Alicia We are so happy that you enjoyed Lazy Daze and all the amenities that it offers! we try hard to provide a fun comfortable atmosphere for our guests. We look forward to your repeat visits! Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

I took my Mom and my niece on vacation and we had a great time! Lazy Daze was very clean and well stocked. We did not want for anything. Tom was very responsive to phone calls and took care of us immediately. We will definitely be coming back. Loved it!!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Christopher We are so glad that you and your family enjoyed Lazy Daze! We try hard to equipped our homes with everything guests may need. We appreciate when guests tell us that something needs attention. We always respond immediately. We hope that you will be back to stay in one of our homes again. Have a great day, Tom and Lucinda

We had a fabulous relaxing vacation at Lazy Daze! We really enjoyed the pool and arcade table. Though across the street from the beach, we still had a great view of the water and dolphins swimming in the morning. We are ready to book our next stay!

Hello Jennifer We are glad you enjoyed Lazy Daze. We actually find it more interesting being across the street than right on the beach and watching all the activities from the deck - golf carts going by, dogs being walked etc etc We will be up after Thanksgiving and actually blocked Lazy Daze for us to stay rather than any of the other houses Thank you for staying at lazy Daze Tom + Lucinda

We stayed at Lazy Daze in mid-July of 2017. I have threee girls and they all loved having the pool in the backyard as well as the bikes that came with the rental. My wife and I enjoyed the close proximity to the beach (access across the street) and we really enjoyed sitting on the front deck in the morning for our daily view of dolphins cruising along the shoreline. We also brought our 2 dogs and they enjoyed playing in the island's dog friendly beaches. I would recommend this house and St. George Island to anyone looking for a place to really unwind and get away from the typical busy Florida beaches. We did have a few issues with light bulbs being out and the kitchen sink leaking but we notified the owners and the issues were taken care of that day. Great home, great location and excellent owners.

Hello Nick Thank you so much for your nice review and comments. We are glad the whole family enjoyed the house, the amenities etc. We are sure the 2 dogs liked having direct access from the deck to the fenced in yard (which makes the owner's vacation much easier). Thank you as well for letting us know that 2 light bulbs where out outside and about the kitchen drain dripping. We are happy that we would take of these items immediately. We hope you will consider St. George Island again for next year and would love to have you back at lazy Daze of one of our other 4 houses on the Island Tom + Lucinda

First time at St George Island. Awesome place to relax and enjoy the beach. Our stay was comfortable. The house has all you need. We will return to St George Island. So happy we stayed at your home!

Hello Carla Thank you for the nice comments. We re glad Lazy Daze is everything you wished for. W hope your 4 legged family member liked the newly installed fenced in yard. It makes life easier for them and for the owners. Thank you for staying at lazy Daze. Tom + Lucinda

The house is perfect. The front balcony porch was great for relaxing in the warm sunshine, my dog loved the porch as well, watching the ocean and activity on the street below. Perfect placement on the island! Close to everything and still quiet. very nice surrounding neighborhood and beautiful homes. Fun walk to the shopping area for a refreshing lemonade in the late afternoon. House was really decorated beautifully, and beds and living room furniture were very comfortable. Kitchen was wonderful and dining area was perfect for sunset and ocean viewing. We really enjoyed our stay, and we loved everything about the house. No complaints at all!! Very easy ,close entrance to the beach boardwalk where I spent early morning and evenings walking my yellow lab who also had a great time and we were happy he could join us on vacation. Pool area was fun , private and refreshing. BBQing ribs and shrimp in back by pool- it was great!

Hello Stacy we are thrilled your vacation at Lazy Daze was everything you hoped for. It is a great spot as you described and the fenced in dog yard with direct access from the deck makes it a good fit for them as well and makes our guests live easier that bring the dogs. We hope you welcome you back in the future Thank you for choosing Lazy Daze Tom + Lucinda

Plenty of things to do in this house on a rainy day. The weather was great for us we spent much time riding the bikes and exploring the island. Beach access is about 1 block away. All in all we had a great family vacation and would book this house again.

Hello John We are happy you enjoyed Lazy Daze and it's amenities. At this time of the year when it cools down the hot tub seems to be a big hit. We hope to see you back again in on of our houses on St George Island. Thank you for choosing Lazy Daze Tom + Lucinda

The family and our two dogs stayed at Lazy Daze, SGI, last week. House was perfect for all of us, especially the dogs. With a group I’ve always had to be concerned about someone inadvertently letting the dogs loose.....not at Lazy Daze. The house was packed with entertainment and well stocked. The grandson said it was his favorite stay at SGI. We cooked all our meals at the house instead if out among the unmasked visitors. We’ll definitely stay at Lazy Daze again as it has been our favorite rental in the past eight years of renting on the island.

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Alta, We are thrilled that you enjoyed Lazy Daze and all the amenities! We hope you will return to Lazy Daze or one of our other homes in the future. Warm regards, Tom and Lucinda

This was our second trip to St George Island and by far the BEST! Lazy Daze was the perfect spot for us and we're already planning to book it for our next trip. Lucinda and Tom are very attentive and accommodating, and the house was well equipped. We enjoyed the pool, and the close proximity to the beach. Thank you again for a wonderful week!

Lucinda and Tom Roenicke's reply:

Hello Ann and John; We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay at Lazy Daze and all the amenities. Thank you for booking with us again! Happy 2021, Tom and Lucinda
