About this property

Bayfront Cabin-A Unique Serene Getaway on East Bay

NOTE: If your group is large and need more accommodation, please see my adjacent larger vacation rental at Vrbo # 1014271.

This is a 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath, located right on the water. An expansive lawn and gorgeous custom dock for viewing spectacular sunsets.

This cabin is located only 15 minutes from the pristine Navarre Beach, one of only ten National Seashores and eight miles undeveloped Gulf-front. Four out of seven of the world's sea turtle species nest along this seashore - also home to towering dunes, migratory birds, and miles of trails for exploring. Not too far from Pensacola Beach, not too far from Navarre Beach, but very quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of Pensacola. Everything you need is close, but you are still nestled in a residential neighborhood.

Private and serene, this unique bay-front cabin boasts the tranquility of a lake house, the recreational potential of a beachfront cottage, and endless possibilities for summer entertaining or an engaging winter get-away. Enjoy watching dolphins swim around the dock.

The boats and boards are an extra fee of $150 for your entire stay.
If you're planning to host an event at Bayfront cabin, there is a venue fee. Please message us for further information. We'd love to explain our in house amenities that we include with this!

Fun and relaxing family vacation

We had such a great trip to the Bayfront Cabin. The property had everything we needed and more to enjoy our time there, plus was just a short drive to a day at Navarre beach. The setting at the cabin is very relaxing, with amazing views, beautiful yard, and our own dock. Exactly what we were looking for!

Amazing

The cabin was amazing! Couldn't have asked for a better place. It was located close to all the beaches and restaurants. We spent all of our evenings grilling and enjoying the beautiful back yard and watching sunsets off the deck. The tide was low in the evenings so it allowed the kids to play for hours.

Great location & setting with well maintained grounds. The house itself is setup perfectly for multi families with each bedroom having it’s own bathroom plus a powder bathroom. I was very impressed with the property & management company.

We had the absolute best time at Bayfront Cabin! Diana w/ Bayfront met us after we arrived to show us everything and was a joy to talk to. The cabin and property had everything you could possibly need and then some. The kayak and paddle boards are worth the rental fee - our kids had a BLAST. The beauty is unmatched and the photos seriously do not do it justice! We'd stay here again in a heartbeat!

A Hidden Gem

This is our second time to stay at the property. Our kids love it and it's just a beautiful spot. There is so much to do without even leaving the house. The sunsets are the most beautiful you will ever see. This year, we were there for July 4th and were able to view the beautiful fireworks from the pier. 5 stars all around!!

Reunion trip

4 couples that graduated together in 1962-63 have gotten together every spring for last 16 years (one of the couples actually lives in the area). The cabin was the perfect getaway location. The beds were very comfy. The views spectacular. The property manager was the BEST!!! and it has the most well stocked kitchen (pots, pans, every kind of baking dish and bowl)of any I've ever stayed in. We look forward to staying at the cabin in the future.

Great Accommodations!

The Bayfront cabin is the perfect vacation rental!! Everything you need is there. It's very clean and presentable for any occasion. Waking up each morning to the lovely view of the bay was calming and exciting at the same. Ms. Carol (the owner) and Ms Diana and the management team are very kind people that are eager to please and accommodate! We had a small celebration there and our guest absolutely loved the cabin and the environment. I strongly recommend this place for your vacation rental and get-away; you won't be disappointed!

This was our second time staying at these properties- this time the cabin, last time at the lodge- and both are absolutely perfect! We brought a variety of aged kids and everything single person enjoyed. They enjoyed the water sports, fishing, crabbing and a fun game of volleyball. The cabin was equipped with everything we needed to stay in and enjoy the property and one another. We are already missing it and can not wait to be back next summer!

Beautiful & Cozy Cabin on the Water!

Bayfront Cabin is such a wonderful vacation spot. The bay is so serene and peaceful, and the view from a rocking chair on the porch through the classic Live Oak trees is amazing. At dusk there's nothing quite like turning on all the magical lights on the lawn and watching the sunset over the bay. During the day my grand kids loved swimming in the shallow water and my adult kids loved going further out to paddle board and canoe. There's a gorgeous master with a bay view downstairs, another queen-size bed upstairs, and such a fun bunk room for the kids (also a real hit with the grand kids!) All in all, there is something for everyone here and this cozy cabin will make great lifetime family memories!

First beach trip

We are normally Mountain vacationers, living in the Midwest, so this was our families first trip to the beach! This home did not disappoint at all! We loved having the seclusion that the bay offers from the world but the short drive to the beach. Having a waterfront was perfect after the long visit to the busy beach and provided much relaxation and tranquility for our two families. The home owners are the best I’ve ever dealt with through vrbo or any other app. They were so easy to talk to and provided a lot of local information that was helpful (photographer, ect) When we plan another beach trip this will be our first consideration and we will highly recommend it to our friends!

About the host

Hosted by Carol Litz

Host profile image
It’s hard not to fall in love with the unique tranquility of East Bay. That’s exactly what happened when we dropped by one summer to visit some old family friends. When we purchased the Lodge and later the Cabin, we didn’t see countless months of repairs and renovations, we saw dream homes with eccentric character. Leaky ceilings and damaged walls seemed to be a distant footnote in light of our vision to use this plot to foster and encourage community and family.

What started as a family project quickly morphed into a community affair. As weeks turned into months and these projects continued endlessly, we became acutely aware of how many people were needed to get these homes repaired and running. We are so grateful for all the help we’ve received and the lasting community that was built. The result of this nearly two-year-long project and seemingly elusive dream, is a unique get-away space that can be tailored and utilized in countless ways.

Bayfront Lodge and Bayfront Cabin, rented together or separately, make up the ideal location for family vacations and your next important occasion. You will not find a more peaceful or unique setting in the area.

Why they chose this property

This beautiful home became a family project/adventure, and they've enjoyed every step of the journey. They hope you enjoy the peacefulness and adventure potential of this place as much as they do.

What makes this property unique

The trees and lawn of this fabulous property are gorgeous. It has a lake house feel and the custom dock is the best place to watch the sunset. Beautiful white sand beaches within 15 minutes; Fishing; Paddle Boarding; Kayaking; Volleyball net in the water. So much to do!
