About the host
Hosted by LaVeda or Glenn Bailey
We live in rural Indiana, but enjoy spending time in Lido Key, Gatlinburg and Nashville. After a lifetime of social work, we are looking forward to some down time. For now, our grand kids are keeping us busy and young at heart.
Why they chose this property
This area has been a part of our lives since the 70s. We have always dreamed of owning a beach house with Old Florida charm and this was the perfect choice. We hope you enjoy the home and area as much as we do.
What makes this property unique
Antique, unique furniture and artwork. Cozy front porch and backyard courtyard. Bikes available for guests. So close to the beach, shopping and restaurants.
