Absolutely fantastic stay!! The condo was perfect for our stay to celebrate graduation with my family. The owner even decorated and left a flower display and sweet treats for our arrival and promptly assisted us when we needed help finding more toilet paper! The views are amazing and we watched dolphins play right outside on a couple mornings. I would definitely love to stay again!

We needed a serious break with peace and quiet. This place was all that and more!!! Loved the balconies and the decor was so nice. We only left one day for awhile, but cooked in every night we were there. We probably saw less than 10 people on the whole beach the 4 days we were there. We definitely recommend this property if you need solace and time to relax.

Quiet, peaceful, beautiful getaway!

This is a lovely home in a quiet, family oriented development. The house was clean, nicely furnished and stocked with everything we needed for cooking (including a grill), laundry and beach time. I like to enjoy the beach from under an umbrella but here, a palm tree provided plenty of shade. The water's edge is truly just a few steps from the house. We walked a couple of blocks to the bay side, seeing beautiful homes, boats and gardens. This area is apparently a fishing haven.The views from the decks were amazing! I spent a lot of time just sitting there reading, wine drinking, and watching sailboats, fishing boats and dolphins.The owner/POC (Toni) was so helpful, responding quickly to my calls and texts and even recruited neighbors to help with our questions about nearby dinner options. There are plenty of grocery options in nearby Crawfordville. We even found a meat market with beautiful filets! We drove to Wakulla Springs in less than 20 minutes where we had surprise visits from the manatees and were in Apalachicola in less than an hour for shopping, oysters and local craft beer. If you are looking for the high-rise condo Destin-like scene or close proximity to the clubs and amusement parks, this is NOT for you. Instead, this is the perfect, peaceful place to get away from all of that.I was sad to have to leave!

Super close to water this is on the bay.

Very quiet clean and comfortable not your place if you are a in water person. Apparently there are water condition issues here frequently they are posted at the bathhouse. But for water view and relaxing cannot be beat.

Great property!

If you want to experience the "not-crazy, no-spring-break, non-tourist", side of Florida, this property is for you. The townhouse is right on the beach, and waking up to the quiet sound of waves breaking on the beach was so relaxing.The property itself is wonderful; clean, nicely decorated, and comfortable. It is on a dead-end of a quiet street, sitting right on the beach. There are two decks to enjoy spectacular views of the ocean, the second floor off the main living area, and the third floor off the master bedroom. We loved having breakfast every morning on the deck overlooking the ocean.If you want peaceful vacation with a ton of nature-related activities, this is for you. My wife and I had a wonderful time of rest and recharging. Definitely would stay here again.

This was just what we wanted. Very quiet and peaceful. If you're looking to party this is not your place. If you are looking to unwind and slow down, this is the place you want to go. The property was very well stocked. Had plenty of pots and pans for cooking and a grill outside. We will be back.

Great communication with the property manager. Nicely appointed and supplied. Perfect place for my mom to stay while visiting us nearby. Loved sitting on the bay/gulf front covered decks and watching the surf, birds and boats go out and in. Great spot for families, fishing enthusiasts or a romantic getaway. Enjoyed our time and recommend highly if you don’t want a loud tourist trap.
