HEALTH AND SAFETY

April 25, 2018 By John Winter

Health and safety are very important issues for the St James community.  We have EMS equipment and trained staff here, inside our gate, to insure very quick response time for any emergency.  The closest hospital is only five miles away.  There are also two care and rehab facilities just outside our gates.  The availability of these services is taken very seriously and constantly being upgraded.  Our fire department and EMS service are preparing to construct and to operate a second location, to insure they have in order to provide the fastest possible response times.

The St James Property Owners Association maintains a guarded gate situation, including video cameras, for entry into our community.  Non property  owners must check in at the gates  to insure they have an adequate reason to be here.  If you have guests coming, you need to notify the guard service of who is coming and how long they will be here.  The guard service also provides roving guards to keep watch and will ticket speeders as well.

I have often stated that the two best features of St James are the security and all the nice people that live here.  So come and enjoy living in a secure environment with many friends and neighbors.

ST JAMES MARINA

February 27, 2018 By John Winter

St. James Marina, Southport NCSt James Plantation includes a beautiful marina on the Inter Coastal Waterway.  We have 155 wet slips from 30 t0 50 feet in length.  For the smaller boats we have 300 inside dry slips.  With just a phone call you can have your boat picked up in the dry storage and launched and ready.   When you are finished, they will pick up your boat, flush the engines, pressure the outside of your boat and put it back in  the boat storage building.

This marina is the most secure of all the local marinas in case of nasty weather.  We have the lowest fuel prices and the best marina staff of all the local marinas,  There is a very nice restaurant on site, open from 7am till 10 pm.

If you like to just cruise, Myrtle Beach is  just a little south and Wrightsville Beach, Wilmington and Baldhead Island are just a little ride north.   There are several places to eat with boat docks in both directions, also.  If you are a fisherman, the inshore fishing for sea trout, red fish and flounder is excellent and all along the waterway and branch streams.  If you prefer off shore fishing, there are exits into the ocean close by.  We managed to catch one sailfish and eleven king fish just this past week.

Having your own boat very close to your home is an ideal set up.   Come take a look and maybe even a scenic boat ride with me.

TOMMY THOMPSONS

January 24, 2018 By John Winter

Tommy Thompsons is a great place to eat on the marina.  They are open for breakfast, lunch and dinner and have the greatest view.   Dine inside or outside with a great choice of food and beverage.  Breakfast features a wide selection of egg dishes, pancakes, french toast, omelets or A LA CARTE choices.   Lunch features a beautiful soup and salad bar,  lots of sandwiches, baskets and my own favorite,  clam chowder.  The dinner menu includes, many appetizers, soups, salads, beef and fish dishes and even sandwiches if you prefer.

On the outside deck is the TIKI Bar which is open when the weather is comfortable.  During the warmer weather, they have a small combo providing music and dancing on the outside deck.

The originel Tommy Thompson was a sea captain who became famous as a “Blockade Runner” during the Civil War.  As Captain, his ship made several round trips through the Union  blockade carrying cotton to Nassau and bringing war materials back for the Confederate forces. He also got very rich doing that, as did the well known Rett Butler, friend of Scarlett O’Hara.

Tommy’s is a very popular place to eat and enjoy the company of your friends and neighbors.

If you prefer, takeout is available by calling ahead (910-253-0767) and then picking up your order.

SNOW IN ST JAMES?

January 4, 2018 By John Winter

Snow in St James?  Not quite impossible.   I have seen snow here six times in twenty-five years.  Three of these times it was gone two hours later.  The other three times there was a little left the next morning.  I do wish you would keep your snow up north.  No shovels needed here.  Maybe a broom for the porch once every five years or so.

Our temperature is forecast to hit 58 degrees by Monday.  Golfers, tennis players and boaters need to work out in our fitness centers for a couple days.

Check Out St.James In North Carolina

December 6, 2017 By John Winter

In St James, you can buy a house like this one above on the golf course for around $500,000 or like the one below on a nice lake for around $400,000.   Taxes between $2,000 and $2,500 per year.  Sell your house up north for $800,000 and put the balance in your savings to help you enjoy life in St James.  You can mimic the actions of Mary and I  and buy a house on the marina and go fishing. The weather down here is amazing.  We do not get hardly a trace of snow,  sell all of your snow shovels and big coats behind and stock up on beach chairs, towels, and a good umbrella!  There are many year-round activities in the area. Recently a flotilla just happened less than 30 minutes away. Christmas parades are almost weekly because each town has their own. Little markets pop up here and there and the locals sell their goods. Buying a home in St.James is one of the best investments, we have ever made!
