Verbo needs to check on this property.

First was the toilet in the front yard , south and west yard looked like a snake haven ,junk everywhere called about air mattresses not holding air, the one used had to be pumped up every three hours ,no one got a good night sleep. Host never called back. Learned a few new words coming from homeless everywhere.

Family gathering

We had a baby shower at the Oyster and everything turned out perfect. It was enough parking as well as enough tables for all the food. The house came supplied with a lot of amenities which was nice.

Perfect location

The house is small but cute. It was perfect for our family of 4. It was clean and the host was very responsive to our messages. Felt safe and no one bothered with anything we left out over noght or while we were gone. We also loved it was close to Destin and Navarre.

Great Location for Travel Baseball Families!

Our son had a weeklong travel baseball tournament in Fort Walton Beach, and this location was PERFECT! We had easy access to a majority of the ballparks where the kids compete, and there were plenty of options for food. It's also a short drive from the beach. We highly recommend John Beasley Park. It offered public beach access and there were restrooms to shower off and tons of parking. We also enjoyed dinner one night at Ali's Bistro. During months that end in R, we highly recommend High Tide Restaurant!
