Great location in Destin!

This is a really cute little property that is only a few blocks from a nice beach. Its right in the heart of Destin so our teens enjoyed the shopping, coffee and ice cream places as they could walk on their own.

Great family vacation spot

We had a wonderful time with our adult children. Great location and in walking distance to almost everything. My only suggestion would be pot holders. We did a lot of cooking and did not have anything you use

Great beach house!

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! There was a short 10 minute walk to beach access and the house was well equipped with a wagon, sand toys, and other beach equipment! The house comfortably slept 8 of us and had all kitchen appliances/utensils to eat at home. The house is located in close proximity to a variety of popular Destin restaurants. Would recommended staying here!

Perfect Beach Weekend

We were in town for a college friend's wedding and a group of us decided to stay an extra couple days after finding this beautiful property. Easy walk to the beach, restaurants like Camille's, and Destin Commons. The beach shower outside was a godsend. We spent hours on the porch swing and screened in porch catching up with dinner we cooked in the kitchen. I cannot recommend this home enough!
