  I did not write in your guest book...so I wanted to let you know how great our stay was in Peace of Mind last week....We have been down to Seagrove at least 10 times in the last 12 years and we have stayed in very beautiful homes...but almost all have maybe one draw/back....some the pool .... some other things....All I can say about you home is that we had not one complaint....it was so equipped with everything we needed (and we had people from 7 months old, 10 year old and 2 teens ....up to mid 60's ....all my 3 grown children with their spouses .....It was the closest to the beach ever and we have stayed Gulf Front....it was immaculate and the people you have to clean and rent it(Cynthia at Seacastles Escape ) were just great....we had no problems with anything. When we return, I am sure we will be contacting you. Also I wanted to say, I am in decorating and you did a fabulous job putting this home together. It must be very rewarding to know you did such a good job.

  We have been going to 30A for over 10 years on our beach trips and this was one of the best we've ever had - mainly due to the Rice's home. It was wonderful - cozy, soo beach worthy, and fabulously decorated and outfitted. Everything we could have possibly needed was provided and in great shape.The owners were exceptionally friendly and helpful. It is a truly stunning home and I would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone going to the Seagrove area. Again, thank you for letting us share your home on our trip to the beach!!

  Great house with plenty of room in a fantastic location. The beach is just steps away and the view from the house is great. The house is well maintained, great floorplan and nice balconies to site out in the evenings on adn enjoy the salt and a tasty beverage. The owner, Jill, is awesome and very easy to deal with. Thanks and we will be back sometime soon.

  My family and friends were fortunate enough to stay a beautiful week at Peace of and Mind and also Sea you in Paradise in April. The week included a beautiful beach wedding and reception at Peace of Mind with the breathtakingly beautiful view throughout the day and evening. Our guests were astonished by the house and all the comforts. We will hope to return to this fabulous beach front home soon and have the opportunity to relive only a portion of the wonderful experience we had this year, JIll and Rick have spared nothing in making this home beyond your wildest dreams for comfort and relaxation...try it...you will love it!!!

  We had our annual Family Bake & Burn at Peace of Mind (POM) or Paradise Found as we called it. Everyone from ages 22 to 81 LOVED this house, location, furnishings, pool, beach, amazing beach views, etc. Even though you're across the street (dead end, non busy) from the beach, it's only about 20 seconds from house to beach. You walk out the pool gate, cross the empty street, there's the beach. The pool area has 2 outdoor showers for washing sandy bodies & beach toys-very easy. We loved the 2 icemakers (great for the margarita machine), 2 fridges in main house, 1 fridge in guest house, & fabulous kitchen where several folks can cook without bumping into each other. Plus the kitchen is equipped with everything you need to cook for a crowd & has a convenient separate bar area. There's a pool alarm that sounds everytime you open the door to the pool unless you push the button to prevent it, so it's good for families with smaller kids. Look at the photos and that's what you get, only much better. There's beach toys in the garage, 2 separate washer/dryers, all beds are kingsized-great when you have tall men with you & the house is decorated so beachy & fun with fabulous beach views. The Rices are so easy to work with, & a local caretaker is available if you have any issues. When we could drag ourselves away from POM, we ate at Red Bar (Grayton Beach-cash/check only), Louie Louie's-(A cleaner Red Bar w/ similar menu). Uncle Ernie's in Panama City, McGuire's & Pompano Joe's in Destin & donuts from the Donut Hole (in Destin & Santa Rosa Beach-freshly baked at 6AM-try the red velvet donut & apple filled). We walked down the beach to WaterSound & explored there. Plus the Outlet Mall is in Destin & Pier Park (stores, bars, restaurants) is at the western edge of Panama City, then you have the beachside communities of Seaside, Watercolor, Alys Beach, Grayton,etc to wander through. POM is located in beautiful & calm Seagrove Beach. It's not as frantic, crowded, congested with traffic or overbuilt like Destin, where we used to stay. The highest praise for Peace of Mind came from my parents, who have been all over the world. They said the Rices thought of everything you could possibly need in a beach house, & they couldn't see how any other beach house could be better than this one, so we should book POM for our next Bake & Burn. Everyone agreed-POM is the best, so I'm booking for next year. We found paradise!

  Just returned from a great vacation @ Peace of Mind. Our group of 15 included 4 generations, and all enjoyed the house. Especially nice were the large kitchen and main living area - big enough for all on game nights. Like the ads say - secluded yet close to everything. We are already looking at the calendar for next year. Thanks a bunch!!!

  We rented "Peace of Mind" in October 2009. The house was everything you could ask for. Views were fantastic and the furnishings were excellent. Everything was very well thought out. Our quote of the week was, "They thought of everything a person on vacation would want and need." We have been visiting this area for thirty plus years and have rented many houses and condos. For large groups this is by far the best we have rented. Hopefully, we will have an opportunity to rent from the Rice family again. They were very helpful and accommodating when we were making our arrangements. What a great vacation!

  There are 11 in our group and we have vacationed at the beach together for 20 years. When we can here 4 years ago, we've never looked anywhere else. We have kids, seniors and married couples and this place has enough for everyone to be happy and private. We watch for dolphins every morning on the deck, we swim late at night in the pool...it's really the best. Can't say enough good about it. Totally worth the $$$.

  This was our 2nd stay at "P.O.M' and it was as wonderful as the first stay. This house is ideal for large groups. The decor is superb! Very good customer service. The owner will go out of her way to please! I can't say enough about the great experience we had staying here. The house is very spacious with enough privacy for everyone. The view from every room is spectacular.
