Experience Your Vacation Haven
Charming, colorful and just minutes from nearly every amenity available, this delightful 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom cottage is in the community of Bay Pines. With expansive views of the Choctawhatchee Bay wetlands and completely surrounded by tall pines, you will almost forget you are just minutes from the crystal blue water and sugar white sands of the Gulf. In the thick of everything, it’s perfect for those who are active and ready to go – or equally relaxing for those who want to sit back and take in the views.

Inside, the open floor plan leaves plenty of space to relax or ample room to maneuver for a gripping game of cards or full-on charades! When it’s time for bed, there is a full master suite on both the first and second floors each offering a king bed and en suite bathrooms. The third bedroom is on the first floor with two twin beds. Escape your escape with spacious bedrooms equipped with TVs and DVD players, perfect for winding down on your own or the perfect place for movie night with your family!

The updated kitchen offers expansive granite countertops, coordinated appliances and plenty of space to cook up your favorite meals. Save the precooked seafood for another time, in this kitchen you’ll want to do it yourself. Serve-up your guests comfortably with plenty of seating between the eat-in breakfast bar and six person dining area (plus amazing bay views!).

For the adventurers, walk to Jolee Island for a picnic with your family or bike the miles of dedicated bike paths right outside your door. Walk to the Village of Baytowne Wharf where family fun like the zip line, playground and marina all offer a unique family experience. Seasonal fun, like bay water sports, seasonal concerts, and fireworks happen nightly. During the day take in the many retailers of Baytowne and more!

Oh – and the beach! Bay Pine is centrally located so the beach is just a five minute bike ride away. Grab your towel, tablet and sunscreen and you’re off for a day of lounging, swimming, and repeat.

Family Beach Trip Joy!
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved this home, the view of the bay, the golf cart and easy access to Baytowne and the pool, etc. We especially enjoyed the screened porch with our 3 year old grandson. The only suggestion I would make to New Haven rentals is not to contact guests during the stay unnecessarily. We received some type of call regarding a windshield repair on the golf cart when nothing was wrong with it? Even if there had been a needed repair, these should be handled between guest check ins and check outs. However, this would not hinder us from renting this home again, but maybe not in July(?), as the beach access was extremely crowded & that is why I am giving an overall 4 star rating. Again, the home was clean and comfortable and we loved being within walking distance to the pool!

Overall great vacation
We had issues the first day getting signed into the WiFi. The information on the app was incorrect. We also had some difficulty and delay in getting assistance with the WiFi issue. The house is perfect for family. We brought elderly parents with us and it was nice to have master suites on both the first and second floor. Plenty of space to be comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with what we needed to cook meals. The furniture is a little old in the living room and the carpet in the house is worn. The location is great. A short ride to Baytowne Wharf and Publix. Love having the golf cart! Overall we had a great trip and would stay here again!

The space in this house was perfect for our family. Grandparents had privacy upstairs and the 2 bedrooms downstairs were comfortable for the rest of us. We could walk to pool and take green golf cart to the beach and Baytown. We had a great time would stay again.

"Short getaway to the beach.
We enjoyed the property and would book again. There was a strange smell when we first entered the house. We determined it was from the fridge and smelled like fish or seafood. WE sprayed air freshener and it went away after a short while. Liked the convenience of the Golf cart especially.

We loved the location of this home and the size of the bedrooms with 2 king beds and one with two twin beds. The home was perfect for our family getaway. It was close to everything: the pool, shopping, grocery store and even close enough to walk or ride bikes to the beach!

Perfect getaway with my parents ( early 80s) and my kids. Relaxing atmosphere that offers plenty of entertaining options nearby. My son and Dad enjoyed a deep fishing excursion while me, Mom , and my daughter enjoyed shopping at the nearby outlet and Baytowne Wharf.

Beautiful.
Everything was perfect. The only thing that I can add is basic cooking items would be nice. We asked too check in a little early because we were flying in early but they charged us for half a day of rental fees and the WiFi was not good at all. Otherwise beautiful home. Thank you for all the reading materials.

Wonderful Home
We loved this house and location so much. My favorite spot in the house was the screened in back porch, so quiet and relaxing and watching the sunset through the trees beyond the bay was magical. I was super disappointed that the Golf Cart was not working, and that was a big issue because we needed it for my parents. It was a big reason we chose the house. That was really a bummer. Other than that our stay was perfect!

Beautiful Home!
This was a last minute vacation for my family of 4 before we send out daughter off to college. So glad we found this property! It is a beautiful home, very clean and spacious. It has a lovely covered patio with a wonderful view of nature and the marina in the distance. It has everything you need for the beach. We loved the golf cart, except it broke down day 2. The office was quick to respond and get someone out, however, they could not get it fixed during our stay. We were bummed about not having it, but luckily we had our bikes. Great access to restaurants, ice cream shops, shopping, the bay side and the beach, all by bike or golf cart. We had a wonderful time and great family memories made!

Perfect for our family of 5!
We really liked this property. It was perfect for our family of 5. The only complaint I have and it isn't really a complaint but the rug in the living room is very uncomfortable. It hurts to walk or sit on. But other than that we loved this property. The pool is very nice and huge. We would definitely stay in this property again!
