Amazing!
Cute, quaint cottage in a phenomenal location! It is a quick, short walk to the beach; no more than two blocks. You can see the beach access from the front door. It is also a block’s walk to The Red Bar and Chiringo’s. It was exactly what we were looking for; an original beach cottage vs a new build. It is clean and the owner was easy to work with. Our teenage girls loved the freedom to walk to the beach and various coffee shops.

We loved this beach cottage.
My family of 5 (all adults) were very happy with our stay at Grayton Presence. We had everything we needed in the kitchen, plus beach chairs, skim boards, and a cart for the short walk to the beach. I especially liked the screened porches on the front and back of the house and the outdoor shower - it kept us from getting sand everywhere in the house. It was great having the 2 bikes, and also the grill and patio table outside. The beds were comfy so we slept well. Another plus is that the owner was always available and helpful if we had any questions. Overall, we were all really pleased with this property. The kids told me how much they enjoyed spending the week together and how glad they were that I’d found the property. We’d definitely stay here again.

A Glimpse of Old Grayton
Sweet little cottage 10 minutes walk to the beach and restaurants. Built in 1925, Grayton Presence stands in contrast to the towering condo buildings nearby and the fairyland of Seaside and other glitzy modern developments. If you prefer classic to crass, this house is the one for you. Jim is a cordial and attentive host who sincerely wanted us to enjoy ourselves, and we did. The only dark note for us was the parade of bikers who seemed to appear 3-6 p.m. each day intent of making as much noise as possible as they sped by.

Charm & location!
This charming beach cottage on Garfield Street was so lovely. I love the historical aesthetic and the original wooden furniture. Two bathrooms, one with a tub and one with a shower stall, were perfect for our family of 5 (me, my partner, and my three daughters ages 5, 7, and 9). The outdoor shower was a great perk as was space to hang towels and such after a day at the beach / dune lakes, which was conveniently a block away. I loved the proximity to the dune lakes because the surf was dangerously high, but we didn't have to miss out--the kids splashed in the not-too-deep lakes and had a great time. They swam, skim boarded, built sandcastles, and frolicked for hours each day of our stay. The house is less than a block from the charming artsy Zoo Gallery (I got some beautiful earrings for myself and a friend), the iconic Red Bar, and delicious Chiringos. With a nice pad of grass outdoors and cornhole boards, we had a great time frequenting this restaurant / bar. We didn't dine on the roof; though, that's an option. In the evening, we strolled down for sunset. While we visited other parts of 30A (only twice), I was in the happiest place to just stay at the house, cook, enjoy time with my girls, and play at the beach. It was perfect, and I'd absolutely visit again. As my girls get older, we'll opt to bring our bicycles, so we can explore a little more, but for now, this was everything we needed to make lovely memories in a charming space!
