Bayou House Beauty!
Our family had an excellent stay at this beautiful, quiet, clean property. The kids enjoyed fishing from the private dock (with 3-day visitor fishing licenses) and the fence allowed our dogs to run free. The owners are very attentive and the house was welcoming and well-stocked. We hope to stay there again soon.

Rest & Relaxation
Tiffany & Adam thought of everything! Absolutely spotless, inviting and immaculately decorated. Essentials + fully stocked! Truly home away from home. Husband was in heaven fishing right off the dock! Short drive to the beach, Destin Harbor and Ft Walton Beach Boardwalk for great seafood, atmosphere and touristy shops!

The needed Spring Break!
My husband and I booked the house with the plans to have our daughter and son-in-law come along. They were most definitely ready for a break from work. The huge draw to this house was how accommodating the hosts were over our small dogs, and that it was not in midst of all the spring break people. Since break was in March, we did not want the usual "beachy" break. Instead, we had a "bayou" break and loved it! Quiet and peaceful. That being said, the house is equipped for all sorts of family fun!

Serene waterfront beauty
This serene property was perfect. My father in law enjoyed sitting on the back porch to read his book. The waterfront was so quiet and relaxing. Tiffany was a great manager and easy to contact. We enjoyed fishing off the dock and the fenced in yard worked perfect for our goldendoodle. We loved this property.

Perfect
We were all impressed with the how clean the house is the moment we walked through the front door! It’s the first place we have stayed that feels exactly like home. The quiet neighborhood was just awesome which allowed us to sit on the covered deck and enjoy the spectacular views of the bay. We were disappointed when it came time for us to leave and all of us are ready to go back! I can’t imagine anyone having any thing negative to say about this beautiful place!! And Tiffany is the best in making sure you have everything you need to enjoy your stay!!!! Five stars are not enough to rate this wonderful place.

I am currently a student success coach at a university & loving dog-mom of two Rhodesian Ridgebacks. I am an avid traveler, having stayed in Airbnbs all over the world, from Melbourne to Mexico City to Berlin, so I know what it takes to create a 5-star stay!

My family lives in the Pacific Northwest, and we vacation and visit family in Fort Walton Beach, FL when we get the chance.

I look forward to making your visit as memorable as possible!
