Perfect Spring Break

The option to heat the pool was just what we needed for this breezy spring break. We enjoyed the warmth of the community pool as well. We spent hours outside on the patio playing games and eating. The house was extremely clean and well cared for. Thank you for a great stay!

Great family house

We’ve stayed here two consecutive years now and this house is excellent for several couples staying together due to the number of king rooms and bathrooms. Every year we take a trip with ~5 couples and 4 children and this house works perfectly. My only wish is that it was closer to the beach- but given the reasonable price and bedrooms we are likely to book again next year!

Great for a big family in Destin.

The house was big enough for all 13 of my family members to stay and have room for the week we stayed. It's conveniently located in the back of the neighborhood and the golf cart is perfect for most places you need to go. I would definitely stay here again.

Incredibly nice accommodations

The property was nothing short of wonderful! We enjoyed are stay not only at the home but in the gated community. The location to the beach was so convenient and the Crab Trap is a great restaurant. The location of the home in that secluded lot makes it so cozy too! We will definitely stay in this home again!

Family escape

Spacious enough for 8 adults and 6 children with beach time in am and pool in afternoon and evening. Kitchen well stocked with cooking supplies and utensils. Needed to stagger some grocery purchases due to size of group. Bedrooms were great with king size en-suites but some mattresses will need replaced soon. Golf cart was very helpful with runs to the beach.

The house was very nice along with the pool and golf cart. The refrigerator was very slow to make ice so we had to keep buying it. Side by side refrigerators are not big enough for that many people in one house. We also had a lot of aunts in the house.
