One of the last of the true old beach house types. Rustic porch with hammock facing sunset. Lots of cool New Orleans and Redneck Riviera art. Outdoor shower stall and easy beach axis.

Lovely Grayton Beach House
Beautiful views of sand dunes, white sand & crystal-clear waters. Very comfortable eclectic house. Easy easy walk to beach. When not at the beautiful beach I was in the hammock on porch. Walking distance to yummy food. Plenty of shopping nearby. Basically the perfect house for my family in Grayton beach. Ty! ♥️

This is wonderful location in Grayton Beach. House is convenient to all things 30A has to offer including being steps away from the white Sandy beach. Excellent and easy communication. We look forward to returning.

Old Florida Gem!
We feel so lucky to have found this house! A wonderful slice of Old Florida, charmingly decorated for a comfortable modern vacation (and becoming increasingly hard to find). The location is awesome - a short walk to a wonderfully uncrowded beach and an easy bike ride to lots of great restaurants and coffee shops. The exterior looks even better than the photos - having been recently painted in shades of grey with bright turquoise shutters and orange doors. Private outdoor shower and storage area were great for coming back after a day on the sand. The front porch is the best part of the house - plenty of room for our family of 7 to play games, lounge, and watch the sunset over the dunes - we spent all our time out there. The interior of the house has a wonderful vintage aesthetic - bright and colorful compared to the neutral palette preferred by most designers these days. Every little detail was thought of - from straw bags for the beach to a wagon to carry all our gear to a large selection of games for nights on the porch. No, it's not like the luxurious new houses popping up all over 30-A, and that's what makes it so special. It's old and retro and comfortable and a little weathered the way a beach house ought to be. We had a lovely relaxing week and can't wait to go back!

Fantastic - the way 30A used to be
My family and I absolutely loved our time at the house. I grew up going to the beach over in Santa Rosa and in Grayton, back before all of the massive houses for 20+ people were built. This place embodies all of the best qualities of the way things used to be, but also with the modern amenities you expect today. The location right on the state park is great as well. We'll definitely be back.

Great location in Grayton beach
Great location in Grayton beach. The house was as pictured on the listing. To make the stay better it could use some updates. The mattresses and bedding felt very dated. New pillows and bedding would go a long way.

Great Week in Grayton!
My wife, our two daughters, son-in-law and grandson had a fantastic week in Grayton and loved this house. We basically lived on the front porch if we weren't at the beach or out around town. The weather was perfect and that porch was awesome! We had coffee each morning on it and just enjoyed the views. Siestas on the hammock and evening meals were also highlights of life on the porch. It was an easy walk to the beach as well as Chiringo's which we hit up a few times. The house is in the middle of a bunch of newer/bigger houses, but we really loved the feel and charm of this house.... it felt like what Grayton was and should be. Hope to go back next year.

The location and property is perfect. Being able to see the Gulf Dunes and incredible sunsets is priceless. Short walk to pristine, uncrowned beach is easy. The beach home was spotless and very well appointed for a vacation atmosphere. The communication was excellent. One of our family members was diagnosed with leukemia when we first booked and we were able to move dates a number of times. Thank you for great vacation!!!

Perfect beach cottage
My family and I felt like we had been welcomed into someone’s cozy and very interesting home. We loved all the personal touches and unique art work. One of our favorite places was the screened porch with the hammock. We ate every dinner on the porch, after watching the beautiful sunsets. We hope to visit this special place again!

Old house with ants
Small house on a great street. Would not rent if you expect to spend time in the house as there is little space for cooking and relaxing. Ants throughout the top floor. Property manager kept deposit with a long list of false accusations and has not responded to my request for an explanation. We’ve stayed in Grayton for years and this was the worst house and worst overall experience.

This home has a wonderful screened in porch ! We spent hours out there looking at the beautiful dunes, playing cards, talking, and reading books. We ate dinner on the porch each evening. The colors of the house are bright and cheerful. The furnishings are cozy and comfortable. We also feel at home at this special house.
