Instantly upon arrival, we felt like we were home, there was a wonderful note from the owner, a bottle of wine, coffee, and all the instructions regarding the property and the available amenities. Our teenagers enjoyed the dock and swings, as well as the paddle boards and kayaks. The home has a wonderful view of the bay and the yard is beautifully taken care of (we actually went without shoes because the back yard is so lush). The beds were comfy and furniture was great for hanging out during storms or just to relax. We utilized the dining room for game night (we brought games) for after dinner. We also enjoyed our daily view of dolphins frolicking and hunting in the bay...what a sight! The property was well maintained, everything you need is there, just bring yourself and any food/drinks you want to indulge in while there. We really didn't need to leave the property, but we did venture to Destin for the beach and for fishing on a offshore charter, all were within a 30 mins drive (traffic once entering Destin is the major contributor to time). Niceville is a short drive (les than 15 mins), they have several groceries, eateries, etc. We hope to return annually and I wish I could keep this place a secret because we didn't want to leave.
