Beach Lovers! - Beautiful House, just steps to the beach. Great Location!

The Summer Salt underwent a complete renovation in 2013, and feature large decks on the West and East ends of the house. The West Deck provides a great unobstructed view of the Gulf. The house has 2 bedrooms and 2 baths and a very large great room/kitchen.

We provide satellite TV with televisions in all rooms and wireless internet access. Parking under the house for 1 car with parking for 2 additional vehicles in the driveway.

The maximum occupancy is 6.

The master bedroom has a private bath, patio door to the deck and a king-size bed.

The second bedroom has a twin bed and two bunk beds (sleeps 3). An additional cot sleeps 1 if needed.

Summer Salt is a non-smoking house, and pets and firearms are not allowed.

We’ve already booked it again!

Simply a perfect little house, cottage, bungalow by the beach! Donny & Kay are wonderful hosts, the house is just as pictured including the view of the water, and it’s clean and well stocked for a vacation stay. We had beautiful weather and an uncrowded beach; we’ll definitely be back! Thank you both!

Father's Day getaway

The house was clean and had everything one could need to cook/eat in for the family . Everyone were happy with their beds ( we didn't use the extra since we were 5ppl. The 100 or so steps to the beach = awesome. We hope to be able to come back some day.
