Great Getaway!

Perfect Stay at the Surf Shack! Our stay at the Surf Shack in Navarre was nothing short of fantastic! This charming beach house not only offers access to serene private beaches but is also conveniently located near a plethora of delightful restaurants. The convenience and ambiance provided the perfect beach getaway experience. What truly set our experience apart was the incredible hospitality shown by the owner. Upon arrival, we were pleasantly surprised to find the house stocked with an assortment of snacks and bottled water. It’s a small touch, but it made a significant impact on our stay. This thoughtful gesture not only provided us with immediate comfort but also showcased the owner's dedication and character. The house itself was cozy, well-maintained, and just steps away from the beach, making it an ideal spot for anyone looking to relax and soak up the coastal vibe. Whether you’re dining out or enjoying the sunset from the private beach, the Surf Shack offers both the location and comforts that make a beach vacation special. We are already planning our next visit back to the Surf Shack. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a stress free and hospitable getaway!

We had a wonderful time. Cat was an amazing host. We couldn’t have asked for a better host. The house was perfect for us. Everything was clean and the house was decorated so cute. Cat communicated with any questions that we had. We would absolutely stay here again!

Surf Shack For the Win

Great house that had everything we needed during our stay. Can’t say enough about Cat and the hospitality she provided as well. She was great about messaging details of the house (checkin process, times, etc. and even recommendations on where to eat/drink nearby). She even had the fridge stocked with breakfast items, cheese and wine as well as cold beer for our arrival which made the full day of travel worth it! We enjoyed the patio deck upstairs and every night and we played board games and cards that were there at the house to use. The Surf Shack is definitely a place I’d stay again!

Happy week at beautiful beach in Surf Shack

The grocery store, restaurants and bars all short walking distance. The house is child and pet friendly with large well groomed back yard. There are stairs in house but also safety gate for protection of pet or child accident. The house has large upstairs porch very nice it has shade(bring big spray).The house is cute and funky, also clean. Plenty of towels for shower time There is a huge beach shower in down stairs bath with three shower heads (very unique). The owner was always avaliable and quick to respond via text . There is no TV upstairs which we found refreshing as it made the visit with family and friends all inclusive. The beach is walking distance about a mile over a bridge we drove. This is a great family or honeymoon get away. Happy Day.

Fantastic getaway in a great location

The property was terrific. The house was immaculate and came fully stocked with everything that you would need for a home away from home. We especially liked all of the beach supplies that were included. It was so convenient to not have to bring them with us in an already packed car. Cat was a terrific host to work with. She was an extremely attentive and responded to all of my texts/emails quickly and in a professional manner. Her restaurant and attraction suggestions were spot on. The 5-mile trip to Navarre Beach was quick & easy (except for the short stint across HWY 98). As far as I am concerned Navarre is in the perfect location halfway between Destin and Pensacola. The beach is not as packed as Destin/Pensacola making for a more relaxing visit but its close enough to enjoy those areas if you choose.

NIce stay at Surf Shack

We are a family of 4 that stayed at Surf Shack in early June. Since we usually visit the area yearly and stay on the beach we were nervous how this location would work out. All of us agreed that it was relaxing being a little further out, and the daily drive into the beach area was no big deal. The home is well taken care of and clean. The kitchen was nicely stocked. The hostess even supplied some basics like bread and eggs. The house had nice outdoor spaces so we spent most of the time on the porch or in the backyard. The hostess was helpful, pleasant, and responded to any questions quickly. The one thing we missed was not having a TV in the upstairs area. There is a large one in a downstairs bedroom but it's not convenient and we didn't spend much time down there. I would recommend this property.

Excellent host.

Cat was probably the most attentive host we have had with a rental. She was kind and patient and had stocked fridge with breakfast items for us to have the day after our arrival. The house was adorable with a well-equipped kitchen (we primarily cooked in). Navarre beach is beautiful with white sand and clear water. The only downside was that we were not as close to the beach as we expected, which was likely due to our lack of familiarity w/ the area. The home is on the other side of the causeway (approximately one mile), and then we drove a few more miles to get to the part of the beach that was recommended/not crowded. All and all, we had a very nice stay in spite of the stormy weather for half of the trip.

The surf shack is a dream!!

Honestly, I cannot say enough good things about Cat and the surf shack!! We had a solid group of people but we were extremely comfortable. The outdoor space was fantastic, we loved the proximity to the pier and beach. We rode bikes around the neighborhood and played with our dog in the backyard. I would definitely come back to the surf shack. Cat was such a gracious and conscientious host, I would give her 10 stars if I could.

Adorable house & big yard

The house was immaculate and very cute. It has a fantastic front porch that would be nice in the warmer months. The backyard was huge and all fenced in. It was a short stay but everything was perfect!

Cat is a great host and very responsive. We had a small glitch with the air conditioner and someone was there right away to fix it. House was in great condition and location is a mile from a good boat ramp so water access was great. Would stay again if I’m back in the area again!

Fabulous Vacation!

Our family of 7 rented Surf Shack and what a lovely time we had! Clean, orderly, and everything we could have needed at our fingertips. We visited nearby beaches and the sound, Navarre park on the water with a splash pad, and were within walking distance to ice cream and a cute gift shop. We were even able to watch Fourth of July fireworks (set off on Navarre beach pier ) from the porch! This owner went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our stay. I highly recommend!
