Peaceful escape right on the bay next to 300 acres of natural woods and beach. Tucked in the back of a neighborhood 20 mins from Destin and 30 mins from 30a (depending on seasonal traffic). Property has a dock with a built in hammock and swings as well as a fire fit out back. Amazing sunrise views and plenty of natural wildlife such as dolphins and eagles. A beautiful 16ft cedar table will hold your entire family under the porch. Large property for kids and pets to run and play with a ramp down to the beach for paddle boarding and kayak access. The Boat ramp is also just 2 miles up the road and plenty of room in the driveway to store your boat. Yard games such as corn hole and badminton provided.

Really enjoyed staying at this property. It’s a great home. We spent most of our time in the backyard enjoying the dock and fire pit. Host was very attentive and quick to respond. We look forward to staying there again.
We had the opportuntiy to stay at this incredible vrbo spot. I cannot begin to explain how perfect this was. We had a couple of families come together for new years at this house. The location on the water was exceptional. The house was perfect.
We loved the space this property provide both inside and out. My kids enjoyed access to the water with no crowds! Very peaceful for my husband and I to sit out back and listen to the water at night!
A well supplied water front property. We woke up to beautiful sunrises but also blaring sun in our eyes with no shades. The adjacent beach is cluttered with bricks and debris which this. owner has no control over. Our dogs were welcome and had a blast but the dogs next Door barked and barkedWe would rent it again
Pictures do no justice for the wonderful rental. Questions were answered in a timely manner from host. View was spectacular, home was spacious and equipped with everything. 15 minutes from Destin,Florida by toll. Family definitely want to stay at same home next year.
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.
