Walk from The Light House to the pool area along the nature trail located just outside the back door of the home. From the 4 story observation tower you can see the gulf, the bay, and miles along the coast to Seaside and Sandestin in either direction.

The beautiful large master bathroom has a walk in travertine shower and plenty of storage in a large walk in closet. There are two large, second floor queen bedrooms. Each bedroom is whimsically named and labeled by a painted starfish hanging on the door. There is 5th bedroom on the second floor with two twin bunk beds that sleeps four. In the upstairs hallways are two full bathrooms with soaking tubs and showers. A utility room with full-sized washer and dryer is located just off the kitchen next to a half bath.

AREA ATTRACTIONS: 

Seaside is a fantastic destination, most widely known for being featured in the Truman Show with Jim Carrey. Its incredible architecture has helped to make it famous but also its faithful replication of the kind of seaside town that used to be common up and down the coast. Seaside has its own Farmer's Market, post office, Repertory Theater and neighborhood school. It boasts unique shopping, fantastic cuisine and the incredible architecture that makes Seaside famous, There are activities for everyone; kayak rentals, bike rentals, paragliding, fishing, golfing, hiking, swimming, tennis -- you'll find it all right here.

Bike rentals are available and within walking distance at Big Daddy's Bike Shop (2217 W. Co Hwy 30A) for you to take a ride along scenic 30A.

Bike over to Blue Mountain Beach Creamery for some homemade scoops that will have your taste buds coming back! You'll have an array of dining options to choose from!

The snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Sea Turtle Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 783 feet out from the Grayton Beach State Park access, it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Sea Turtle Reef is at a depth of 12-19 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

Very Deceiving
When looking for a rental home for my family of 12 this property was deceiving on many levels. The sleeping for 12 wasn’t accurate! The bunk beds were not suitable for adults not to mention their wasn’t a door to this room! The parking for three vehicles didn’t state they would have to be compact cars. We had two suburbans and one midsize car that didn’t fit in this extremely small drive. We had ordered two 6 seater golf carts that their was no room for. This caused issues with home next door that called the owner of home which lead to a phone call to me from rental company. Had I known it was not enough room for vehicles and golf carts I would have selected another property! The hall bathroom ceiling leaked and the oven knobs were broken which caused issues with cooking. The bathroom knobs were loose and the bathroom towel rack was broken. The kitchen wasn’t Equipped with the right Kitching cooking tools need it for every day living. The refrigerator icemaker did not work! I had to call maintenance and they came out to say they’ve been to this property very often. For the amount of money I paid for the week I was very disappointed and will never rent this property again. The pool and beach were not as simple to get to as they stated. Our family made the best of what we had to work with, but I do not recommend this property to anyone. It needs great work and would cause the next door neighbor less stress if they would have been upfront on the Accommodations! Very Disappointed Do Not Recommend to anyone!

Lovely Home, issues with dryer, disappointed with property management communication
Lovely home, bare essentials in kitchen, had to purchase a cutting board and acceptable kitchen knife in order to adequately prepare our meals. Blender and toaster barely worked. Dryer was in need of repair. Property management told me the issue would be resolved on Tuesday. I called on Thursday to find out when the issue would be resolved. I was told someone would contact me, however no one did before we checked out on Saturday. Beds were uncomfortable for several adults in our family. There were spiders in one of the bathrooms, but it was manageable. I thought the management company would want to know. We have celebrated our family reunion in the Santa Rosa Beach area for the last 7 years and have never had issues like these before. For the price of the rental, I was expecting a better experience.

Blue Mountain Ahhhhhhh
The neighborhood is lovely. The house suited our needs with the exception of having enough seating in the living room. And really this was only an issue in the evenings when we were “in for the night”. Bedrooms were very spacious. Make sure you run the bathroom fan in the upstairs hall bathroom when showering otherwise the steam will set the fire alarm off!!! Overall, a great place to stay for our two families(4 adults, 4 teens)

Great vacation
Overall, we loved the house. It was spacious and well kept, and a great location to the pool and beach. There are a few maintenance items that need to be attended to, that are likely overlooked in the in-between guest stay cleanings. And we had to re-wash all of our clothes when we got home because it all smelled faintly of smoke.
