We love this beach house! Perfect location with direct access to a quiet beach, far away from any condo. We’ve booked this house for 2 families with small kids and it’s the perfect size with 3 bedrooms. Be sure to bring salt, pepper, spices and hot pads for cooking as we could no find any.

Good for quick access to the beach

I love that it was really close to the beach, with small children that made it really easy to go back-and-forth for nap time and diaper changes, etc. However, it’s very expensive for a really rundown house.

We had a blast

The location is unmatched. We had an absolute blast. The house is older but still great, especially for the price. My family had a fantastic time. The only thing I would recommend be updated, is the flooring in the bathroom downstairs. The floor is giving out right up against the shower and my daughter hurt her toe from it sliding under the actual shower. It’s not obvious unless you step in a specific spot and it’s not something I believe they are aware of. Other than that, it was a beautiful stay and we would love to go back

Spring break for college kids & parents

Overall we enjoyed the house & location. It was within 100 steps or so to the beach with a great view. It met our family of 5 with a dog’s needs.

We got to the house and there is a strict check in at 4 pm only so we waited around, noticed that there was no picnic table which we had brought food to eat while we waited, the description said picnic table. Got inside and none of the doors have deadbolts and sliding door has a thing to stick in where it wont open. The floors are super lumpy, and theres a sunken place at the shower area i about fell in multiple times trying to bathe my 3 little ones. The bedrooms shake really bad when walking upstairs or driving off the concrete from under. The steps to the front door are in need of serolious repair due to rotting. The view and beach access was the best part of this place and being able to bring our dog. Otherwise this house is in serious need of remodeling.

Cute bungalow for a family vacation

Being so close to the beach without crazy traffic of a condo was great. We loved being able to have our Granddogger with us too!!

Perfect Location

We loved our stay at this house. It was so easy to go from house to beach with private access. The house is older and well loved but it was very clean. The kitchen was lacking some utensils (measuring cups, decent knives and some pots and pans) and extra blankets would be nice. We would definitely stay here again!

A wonderful get away

The perfect location! I absolutely recommend. The house was clean. The beds were clean. The beach was clean. The den furniture could be updated and more comfortable, but we spent most of our time on the beach.

Unbeatable beach view

Although the house was a little outdated it did not matter to us. The beach access and view was unbeatable. We had little kids and it was great getting them to and from the beach.

Great Beach Front In a Quiet Location

This is a great little house with a nice deck view and easy access to a beautiful and quiet and beach with no crowds to contend with. The house and furniture inside is a little dated but functional. Overall a great experience.

Incredible Gulf-front location. House was very comfortable. We were missing some bed linens and a grill when we arrived but the online Vacasa agent notified the local management right away and they reacted quickly and courteously to provide them.
