Gulf Front House, BoatDock/Spectacular View, Central A/C

Looking to get away from it all? You have found it! Quiet,
peaceful Horseshoe Beach - Florida's Last Frontier in the heart of
Florida's Nature Coast. Enjoy spectacular sunsets and starlit
nights with only the sound of mullet jumping in the Gulf waters
merely steps away from this beautifully-furnished home.
Excellent Speckled Trout and Redfish fishing await you inshore in
the grass flats and offshore you'll find great grouper, snapper,
sheepshead and king fishing. Horseshoe Beach is the best area to
get scallops when in season (mid June thru early September).
The house has a very private location at the end of a street. Relax
and unwind....

The house had amazing views. The dock was perfect to hold our two skiffs, 18 foot and the other 24 foot. The only two things that I would say were a problem was no garbage pails on the ground floor. The other was trying to park trailers under the house. The neighbors wire their driveway entrance which doesn’t allow you enough room to work your truck into appropriate angles parking a trailer. We unhitched the trailers and manually pushed them under the home. It really wasn’t too bad. Other than that we will stay here again

Weather didnt cooperating our last 2 days but we enjoyed relaxing amd playing games as a family indoors. The house was beautiful, and check in was easy. If your looking for a secluded, quiet, peaceful place this house is what you need.

We had a great stay at Nancy’s place. The lot was terrific, and when we weren’t out on the boat, we spent most of our time relaxing on the deck. We’d definitely stay here again.

Best home in Horseshoe

I’ve stayed at several different places in Horseshoe over the years and this was by far the best. Spacious home, great views and the dock stayed wet!

Lovely views! Spacious home. Easy check-in and check-out. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and the little neighborhood of Horseshoe Beach. Made friends with some locals, rented a boat from Sea Hag marina in Steinhatchee, scalloped our hearts out and made lasting memories with our 5 youngest (of 7) kids. A vacation for the books! Don’t walk….RUN TO BOOK YOUR STAY!

Boat dock

One of reason we book the Gulf front house was because of the boat dock, but at low tide there was no water so we couldn't leave or return to the dock. So, we had to use the boat ramp every day for our four days stay. This made it very incontinent for us and wasted a lot of our time. If we know that we would have booked a place cheaper to stay. Other than that, the house was very nice.

Beautiful views

Our overall stay was amazing. We had 11 people total and had more than enough room to accommodate us! We planned on scalloping but it seems the recent hurricane has made it more difficult to find them. Luckily the weather was beautiful so we enjoyed boat rides and swimming around sand bars. We were unfamiliar with the area so we did not know about the tides and their effect on the inner canals. Plan your boating trips carefully. Other than that hiccup we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This was our first full family trip with my husbands family and it was a memorable one. <3

The best of the best

The house was very clean and spacious. Had everything needed to make our stay perfect. Any question I had, Brad answered almost immediately. Plenty of parking. Dumb waiter available and working perfectly. The deck goes around the entire house and there’s 2 levels. The middle level is large enough for the kids to enjoy. Definitely will be renting again.

Perfect quiet getaway

Horseshoe beach is an isolated getaway to the Gulf of Mexico. The property is well maintained. A quiet area that allow friends and family to come together for some relaxed boating for the experienced captain. Tides can be a little tricky and need to be referenced before planning your day on the water. We definitely enjoyed our stay. Brad was a wonderful host and excellent communicator.
