Highly recommend

Wonderful place! Right on the sound with a dock to fish. Pool right in the back door. You can monitor the “big kids” at both places from the deck. A bit of a walk to the beach, but worth it! Owners fill the spice pantry, which was a plus. Good communication with owners as well. Highly recommend Perk and Pop’s Perch!

Great stay on golden pond

My family of 5 and our friends family of 4 stayed on golden pond for our fall break. There was more than enough space to accommodate us all. The beach gear was ample. Kitchen was stocked so well! Spices galore and that was a big plus for us as we cooked most meals in. Everything was clean and well kept. Would absolutely be back if the occasion arises.

Wonderful stay!!

This house was so cute and the location was awesome. The owners were great with communication and were quick to help with the washing machine when I had an issue. The house was clean and well stocked. The pool location was great and the dock and lagoon were a great addition. The walk to the beach was very easy to do daily and there was plenty of beach supplies in the downstairs shower. My family loved it and cannot wait to return.

Beach and Softball

Great property. Everyone had plenty of room and bathroom space. Pool is very close. But a bit crowded for the size of the pool. The kitchen had everything we needed. 30 minute drive to Foley Softball fields. Great stay overall. Highly recommend.

Family vacation

We've stayed here twice now. Owner responds immediately with issues. Beach stuff is there too is, even a wagon. I would suggest going to The Hangout and using Bay Side Boat Rental. The only issue was the weather; it messed up our boat ride, but the owner was great to work with. It's always nice to work with people with integrity, and that's what you get with this owner.

Family Vacation

The house was perfect for our group of 5 adults and 4 kids. The best part was being directly in front of the pool and having the lagoon views. The pool did get a bit crowded at times, but wasn’t terrible. The pool does need some love- the bottom is very rough and over the course of our week stay was never vacuumed. Sand covered the bottom of one end. This was at no fault of the unit owner though, as it is a shared community pool. We had some issues with the unit’s lock, but the owner was very prompt and helpful. We were very happy with our stay, and would definitely rent this unit again!

Superbly Perfect Get Away

Not one thing would I change about this property! The location is stunningly beautiful with the gulf, pier, and swimming pool directly in front of us. The couple block walk to the sandy gulf shore was quick and easy so that going many times a day is so easy! The kitchen was amazingly stocked with essentials like tea, coffee, spices, utensils, cookware, and place settings. I packed many kitchen items that I would not have needed to bring. The beds were super comfortable and the sheets and towels were (I am guessing) professionally cleaned. Everything was very clean and well thought through. Interestingly, we did not use the multiple television systems because we spent time rather enjoying the accommodations, family time, and surrounding area, but we did enjoy one movie night at the house. There are boogie boards, mats for the beach, and sand toys to make enjoying the beach possible without making those investments. Seriously, not one thing would I change about this property, and all six of us (ages ranging from 60 - 14) agree!

Love the Lagoon

Our family had a wonderful stay at 8B. Public parking near the beach made transporting all of our paraphernalia to the beach not such a hassle. The very young grandkids enjoyed the lagoon beach area. The house size was just right with 3 bedrooms and 4 baths. Ronald was a very attentive host.

Perfect Fit for Everyone

We had such an amazing time at this property. My husband, our three year old boy and girl twins, my niece (who turned 8 while we were there), my 10 year old nephew, my sister and her husband and my parents all loved it. It had been five years since we had a beach vacation together. The last one was canceled because of C0vid. The timing of this vacation ended up being perfect because we got to also celebrate the adoption of our twins out of foster care that had been with is for 1195 days prior. We had so much fun on the beach, in the pool, and on on the pier in the lagoon. My nephew caught three crabs in his crab net. He was SO excited. He came running down the pier with a huge smile on his face. It was priceless. Walk to the beach was easy. We were excited to find the boogie boards and sand toys we were able to use. We got to watch some really awesome lightning shows from the pier (from a distance of course) 😉. The house was very nice and clean. I would definitely stay here again!!!

Perfect place for our family (ages 8-11). We could come and go from the beach with ease- and have a view of the kids playing on the pool or lagoon from the balcony. Nice walk to lagoon peir - 10-20 minute car ride to groceries/Walmart/etc. wig we are able to come again- this is where we will want to stay.

Great place to stay by the dock.

The location for this property was great. We had great access to a fishing dock and a beach in the lagoon. Our boys fished for hours and had a great time. It’s also a few blocks from the beach so we were able to spend time there. The e house itself is great and it’s so handy that it’s actually stocked with easy to forget products!
