Family Fishing Trip

We arrived from Charleston SC at check in, enjoyed the beautiful view until two more family came. Lovely house, lots of room and the porch view was incredible. Easy to put the boat in, the ramp was across the street! We caught enough fish to feed our crew each day at the only restaurant and they include cook your catch on the menu. We caught Red Fish and Speckled Trout

Business Stay

We enjoyed our stay. Just know when you go to this area, dogs are not on leashes. Most of the dogs in the area seemed to get along well, but we're used to leash laws in Georgia. The weather was beautiful and we loved the screened in area. Sunsets were my favorite.

It is an absolute gem!

The location is perfect. Convenient to the beaches and landing. The community landing was a plus. The home is beautiful. I love the set up and it is so cozy. The evening sunset views are amazing. Fishing and scalloping in this area was great. I will definitely save this home for future trips.

Dog Feedback

everyone in the neighborhood knew one another and so did the dogs. it was like a group of canine children going from house to house to play. all the dogs were friendly and the people too. this is not a complaint against anyone - again, everyone was helpful and great! this did present a challenge though as our dogs are not used to this and can be a little reactive to strange dogs approaching them. perhaps a warning about this or a fence of some sort could help. also, we had to use a piece of sheetrock from the carport to stop dogs from coming all the way to our front door. if you need us to replace this, please let us know. i cannot say enough how great of a time we had, the location was great, and the people were great. we are going to keep this property in mind for future trips too.

Wow - Amazing

We recently spent Memorial Weekend at this incredible rental, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. The place was absolutely beautiful and peaceful, offering stunning sunsets and perfect tides and weather. It was a family-friendly environment where the kids could play safely, and we could enjoy activities like boating, fishing, walking, golf cart rides, and swimming. The property exceeded all our expectations, providing the perfect setting for a memorable and enjoyable weekend. We look forward to return several times throughout the summer. We give this place the highest rating possible and highly recommend it to anyone looking for an ideal getaway.

Fishing with friends.

Spent a long weekend fishing with friends and family. Really enjoyed making new friends with people in the community. I will definitely book another trip here soon. The house was great and having a private boat ramp is very convenient.

Family trip

We absolutely loved the area and amenities! The only draw back was our pontoon boat would not fit on the property. Luckily my brothers family had also rented a place close by and they had room for us to park to boat there. We also had a smaller boat without a canopy with us that fit fine in the underneath area. The private boat ramp is a great advantage. We would definitely stay again.

Middle of nowhere quiet

The 3 story home is a challenge to go up and down. The direct tv didn't work. We were looking for a quiet weekend for our 53rd anniversary. That was it. Internet wifi worked. We visited Steinhatchy and did a seafood boil from Winn Dixie in Perry.

Wonderful!

The place was exactly what the pictures showed. Super clean, stunning views, comfortable bed. Lisa was wonderful and easy to communicate with. The house had absolutely everything you could need. I am a travel RN that came to have a quiet spot to read my books with my dogs and have a nice view… and I had exactly that. Would most definitely come back :)

Great location and just as advertised

Everything was as advertised and very nice. Only drawback for me was we had to haul our trash off which is very inconvenient. Never stayed at a vrbo where you had to do this.

Very welcoming

Absolutely loved the location, private boat ramp and house. Lisa was great at answering all questions as I was new to VRBO, and they were the best at sending information on surrounding dining and anything we may need in their welcome letter. This is a very dog friendly quiet fishing community and we loved it and the layout of the house. Our only suggestion would be to update that the outside shower did not work and that there was no Kayak. These were things we were looking forward to. Other than that we were extremely pleased with the price, stay, and area as it kept us out of Steinhatchee's craziness during a holiday weekend, and was a true relaxing getaway.

About the host

Hosted by Lisa Maxwell

Host profile image
My husband and I live in Crawfordville. I grew up in Taylor County and have a fond memories of summers at Dekle Beach. We both love fishing and spending time with friends and family. My husband loves to cook so we enjoy fishing and cooking our catch.

Why they chose this property

I grew up in Taylor County so I had many fond childhood memories spending summers and special occasions at Dekle Beach. Many of my childhood friends owned property at Dekle Beach so when I had the chance to purchase property and build a house, I jumped on it!

What makes this property unique

Excellent fishing, scalloping, bird watching and beautiful sunsets and small friendly community. So very Thankful the house survived Hurricane Helene with mostly damage to the mezzanine.
