Great Escape

Reason to Escape is a great property. Had more than a few concerns when first going to the house (turn down a dirt road between some campers with misc. boats sitting around). However, we met one of the neighbors and no longer had concerns. The house has a well stocked kitchen. Great selection of pots, pans, utensils, and dishes. The house has two bedrooms and each has its own bathroom. The addition to the house is where the additional beds are located and this area also has a bathroom. There is a door that can close off this area. We loved how roomy this house is. The only things we did not love were: The AC struggled. It was Upper 90's and we set it at 75. It would definitely heat up in the day and took a while to cool down - all doors and curtains were closed. The refridgerator was not working properly. It took over 24 hours to freeze 16 oz water bottles. After 24 hours, the water bottles in the fridge were barely chilled. Definitely not cold. (We did not overstuff the fridge with "hot" items. Everything except the pack of water was cold and it was room temp). We ended up loosing some food (Milk and lunch meat) because the fridge was not cold enough. Contacted owner and they suggested making sure it was pulled out from the wall to get airflow. That did help a little, but still it did not cool down to the proper temp. (We checked it with a high quality infared thermometer). My advice - Take a Cooler and use it.

Beautiful place

We really enjoyed our stay here, very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. The house had most everything needed! Wish there was an outdoor hose to clean off with, we didn’t want to track sand inside.

Mexico Beach Trip

We had a great time while staying in this property! House was clean and worked well for 2 families. The kids loved having a separate spot to hang out. Both bedrooms were large and beds were comfortable.

Great getaway

Location was amazing. Only 6 miles from beach and restaurants. Not all of our group enjoys the beach equally. Half of the group stayed at the property and fished, and the other half went to the beach. Our family loved that each bedroom had its own bathroom, so we did not have multiple people waiting on shower. Out of 3 couples we gave the property 6 thumbs up!

About the host

Hosted by Stephanie Reason

We reside in Georgia, but our love of the ocean and small-town life drew us to purchase our Reason to Escape. We scuba dive, fish, and spend as much time as possible near the ocean. We love sharing our piece of paradise with others.

Why they chose this property

We love to watch the boats go by! It is the most peaceful and quiet view.

What makes this property unique

Our property is 3 private acres where you can truly escape the cares of life for a while. Close enough to the beach and nightlife, but secluded enough to escape the crowds and just enjoy nature. Best of both worlds!
