Location: Grove by the Sea, Seagrove Beach, Beaches of South Walton, Florida North West, Florida, USA (Walk to Seaside or Bike Along 30A to Watercolor or Rosemary)
Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms + Loft, 3 Baths (Sleeps 8-11)
This beautiful house is named "Making Memories" because our wish is it will give everyone happy memories! It is in the lovely community of Grove by the Sea in Seagrove at 26 Cullman Avenue. It is less that a mile from Seaside with all its shops and attractions without the higher rental prices. Located right off of 30A west of Panama City, you'll have close walking access (about 1/4 mile) to the sugar-white sandy beaches, emerald green water, and unbelievable sunsets. Nearby are two great community pools, a tennis court (which you can see from the upper deck), and a playground for the kids. The bike trail runs all along 30A and gives you miles of level, easy riding adventures.
Nearby are the recreation areas of Camp Creek Golf Club (5 miles), Grayton Beach State Park (2.5 miles), Point Washington State Park (1.5 miles), Deer Lake State Park (3.5 miles), and our favorite, Eden State Park with lovely grounds and gardens and its historical plantation house (3.5 miles).
Our house is newly decorated with our own touches of bright, happy colors, including original whimsical paintings by our daughter Tricia Robinson and lovely blue pottery by our daughter-in-law Carla. A new plus is the handicapped ramp that has been added to the house to make easy access for wheelchairs.
The main floor features a large wrap-around screened-in porch with plenty of chairs and rockers and a table for outside dining. The house has wireless internet connection for all of us laptop lovers. The inside is open with a spacious, fully-furnished kitchen, dining area, and living room. The dining table seats 8-10 plus 3 more at the bar. A laundry area is off the hall plus a full bath. The cheery first floor bedroom has twin beds and French doors to the screened porch. There is also a TV and DVD player.
On the 2nd floor you'll find two roomy and colorful bedrooms with queen beds, a single roll-away bed for extra sleeping space, a porta-crib and an umbrella stroller for small children, your own bathrooms, TV, DVD players, and doors out to the porch with its comfy chairs and a table for enjoying a cup of coffee or even a private meal. You can relax in the jacuzzi tub off the master bedroom. Go up the stairs to the "tower room" and find a great area for the kids or a get-away for adults with TV and a wet bar boasting a sink and fridge. Each end of that room has decks overlooking the lovely homes and streets of the community. You can get a breath-taking view of the starry night-time skies. There is sleeping for 4 with a queen futon sofa bed and bunk beds.
Outside the house you'll find a secluded shady yard with the sweet scent of magnolia trees and Rosemary bushes. The outside shower is a convenient way to wash away the sand. There are 3 bikes for children plus water toys for the pool or beach and a handy wagon to carry chairs and more to the beach.
There is parking for 3 vehicles. Smoking and pets are not allowed.

Your house is the best! I think I have finally redeemed myself with my family for all the other places we have stayed that "looked great" on the internet. We enjoyed the porches every morning, lunchtime, and evening. What a blessing your beach house was to us all.

Thanks for allowing us to rent your beautiful house. We had a wonderful time. We had a lot of great family time and really hated to leave. We really loved all the scripture throughout the house. We even saw one of your daughter's paintings in a shop at Rosemary Beach. Thanks again--hopefully we will be able to vacation there again next year.

We were so blessed to have a wonderful few days at the beach and your lovely home. We were so pleased! Everything was beautiful and cheerful and well kept. We definitely want to return. Your daughter's art work is simply gorgeous. We enjoyed all the wonderful pieces. We also took advantage of your restaurant suggestions and were pleased as well. You and your family have a wonderful place to enjoy. Congrats!
