We just left Moon Baby an hour ago and we haven't stopped talking about the wonderful time we had at Grayton Beach. Thank you for allowing us to use your cottage, bring our dog and enjoy one of the most beautiful places we've ever been. The weather was incredible and we love the quaint and charming feel of Grayton Beach. Our 15 y/o rode his bike to Seaside every day to hang out with friends and that made it easy on us not to get caught up in that Spring Break "mess" over there. We much preferred the calmness of Grayton. We hope to return to the area soon and we'd love to rent from you again. With many thanks,Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

Just wanted to let you know what a WONDERFUL time we had in Grayton Beach. The cottage was perfect for us, so cute and so convenient to everything...especially the beach. The weather was perfect which made the vacation that much more delightful GB is a pretty special area. We arrived home with the Wisconsin weather turning frosty the past two nights with temps in the 20's. The memories of our time at Moon Baby in Grayton Beach will linger forever. Hopefully, we'll return again, perhaps with our son/daughter-in-law and grandson..they will love it, too. It was a pleasure to meet you and I wish you many happy seasons in the sun.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

After a longer than expected drive in and arriving much later than anticipated, my husband, dog, and I arrived at Moon Baby. My dog took right to the fenced in yard and as my husband and I entered the house, we both instantly felt right at home. The whole house is absolutely charming. The place is nicely decorated with a well appointed kitchen. Only minor complaint was the house was a bit dark in the evening. But under cabinet lighting and another lamp in the LR would do the trick. The screened in porch AND the front deck was such a great asset to have and each got used a lot. Little touches like extra pillows and blankets, an iPod/iPhone docking stereo, tons of games (even Twister!), supplied beach towels & chairs, full size washer/dryer w/supplied washing soap, even QUALITY toilet paper were so very appreciated. And the master closet! Such space, you could almost put a twin bed in it. Speaking of the master bedroom, it was SOOO large with separate seating area and cozy, large bed with a lovely down comforter. Perfect for the chilly nights we had during Thanksgiving. Moon Baby is located on a lovely, tree-lined, quiet street. The only noise we really ever heard was the A/C unit of the house next door. It was a bit noisy when it came on, but we quickly got used to it. And when the surf picked up, you could just hear it down the street. The lovely Grayton Beach was a VERY short walk down the street to the board walk. Just know, take a flash light if you go at night as GB is very dark at night. That was supplied too! Had we chosen to, we could have remained in GB and had all the food, drinks, and entertainment we could have ever needed, all within a VERY short walking distance. And a special thank you to Kitty, the owner, who was so easy to work with. When we briefly thought we might need to change to a bigger house for possible friends joining us, she was totally willing to transfer our deposit, etc. to Cole Baby, her other property. And when that didn't happen, she was kind and patient with our course changes. Such a special property for a couple to relax over a long weekend. And our dog, Roux sends a special 'WOOF WOOF' and a paw pump for the awesome yard.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, pet owners, romantic getaway, age 55+, girls getaway, tourists without a car.

For the second half of our vacation, we enjoyed the spontaneity and wonder of youth. My boys enjoyed the ocean and riding the bikes. Even some rain couldn't dampen our spirits as we all enjoyed more of Moon Baby's magic. Thank you for providing a lovely home-away-from-home.Did you find this review helpful?

Thank you for allowing us to vacation at Moon Baby in Grayton Beach. We both sooo needed some down time from work and bringing our furry babies with us for some R & R was a plus!! They so enjoyed their morning walks. Well, it's back to the salt mines next week. One day soon, we will return and our hope is to retire at a place just like the laid back style of Moon Baby at Grayton Beach. Thanks again for a wonderful-much needed vacation!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

We had such a wonderful and very relaxing stay at Moon Baby. My family immediately felt so at home in your beautiful cottage. The weather was perfect and the kids had so much fun fishing, swimming, and crabbing at night. What a great place to wake up Father's Day morning. We never want to stay anywhere else. Thank You!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

Thank you for a magical experience after a first-time visit to Grayton Beach. It's a tapestry of lovely color and texture and a feast for the senses. I feel like I have visited a place far, far away, even though this is an easy day's drive. I will be back again to share the experience with others.Did you find this review helpful?

Owner info
Year Purchased: 1997
About the owner: I am a local Broker/Owner of Grayton Coast Properties, a small boutique real estate company located in Grayton Beach. My husband and I love to watch Grayton sunsets. We also enjoy the many great restaurants along 30A. When we aren't working you'll find us with friends cooking out at the beach or boating on the bay aboard the "Grayton Girl."
Why the Owner Chose Grayton Beach:
I grew up running around Grayton Beach as a youngster. My grandmother had a cottage called the "Cole Bin" and it's still in the family. Grayton has a great beach, beautiful gulf water and a coastal dune lake that sometimes flows into the gulf.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
Walk to the Red Bar Restaurant-a fun and funky place with live music and great crabcakes. Borago Restaurant is also nearby and boasts wonderful Italian cuisine and to die for maritinis. Bike paths are nearby and connect you to Watercolor and Seaside just a couple of miles away. Rent kajaks or YOLO boards and enjoy paddling along Western Lake.
