This charming cottage with elegant appointments is in a prime location.. hence acquiring the nickname 'The Shizzle'. Its rustic charm and perfect location to all the area restaurants and bars makes it a top choice to many visitors.
One of the oldest areas along the emerald coast, Grayton Beach, Florida is still thriving. On a stroll down one of its shady streets, you may hear stories about the roaring '20s at Grayton's Grand Hotel or the time the Coast Guard was stationed here during WWII. Nature trails, swimming, fishing and many more of nature's unspoiled treasures are what make the Grayton Beach community unique. Its key location makes Grayton Beach a prime place for antique shopping and fabulous dining. So whether you're looking for relaxation, fun in the sun or sea turtles! Grayton Beach, Florida has it all.

Grayton Beach, Florida is a laid back place with quaint historic cottages next door to modern beach homes. It's an eclectic beach town with good times, picket fences, old oak trees, funky art, and great dining & shopping. If you walk down one of Grayton Beach's well-worn roads, you get the feeling things haven't changed much in the last hundred-plus years since the town's founding. Magnolias, pine and oak trees surround the authentic beach homes.
Be sure to spend a sunset strolling on the beach before visiting the famous Red Bar, the most popular spot in the area which is located across the street from 'The Shizzle'. The Red Bar and Shorty's Restaurant (which is next door to 'The Shizzle', are favorites for fun with friends and family while listening to live music and enjoying great food and drink.
Grayton Beach is home to the natural beauty of Grayton Beach State Park, along the Gulf of Mexico and most of Western Lake. Western Lake is perfect for families with children due to its location of being on the beach - next to the ocean. The Grayton Beach hiking trail is one of the most scenic in the area, circling sand dunes, skirting the coastal dune lake, and cutting right through a dense oak hammock. A public dock allows boating and fishing.
One thing you are sure to notice in Grayton Beach is how friendly everyone is who lives there... and their unique ability to remain unspoiled by the beauty and history that surrounds them.

                        After a wonderful long weekend at The Shizzle, I have come to realize it can truly appeal to all who visit. Location location location is an understatement when discussing The Shizzle; you cannot ask for a better setting in Grayton to meet every need for all members of your group. The Shizzle is literally in the hub of Grayton’s treasures whether it be the beach, the bay, shopping, dining, nightlife, boating, etc., nothing is more than a couple of blocks on foot or a few blocks on bikes. The home itself is a relaxing retreat as well; once inside, one does not realize they are in the heart of Grayton’s excitement due to the comfort of the lovely cottage. I especially love the outdoor tub and shower after a day of fun in the sun. The Shizzle is perfect for groups of all ages, with or without children, who enjoy getting away while feeling the comforts of a real home. I highly recommend this beautiful cottage and cannot wait to return to The Shizzle very soon!!!!

                        Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, families with young children, pet owners, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

                        This cottage is so adorable. Completely updated but still keeping the charm of the cottage feel. It is spacious and in a great location to visit many local attractions.Within walking distance of many locals places in grayton beach. Just a stones throw from the beach and The 'famous" RED BAR. The outdoor showers are a bonus after a hot day at the beach. Will definitely be back. Coudln't see staying anywhere else after staying here!

                        This house is great for a group or a family. We went as a group of 11 and there were plenty of places for us all to sleep - made it perfect! Also, it is within walking distance to a number of restaurants (I mean a block or two to the furthest one!) and shops and it is at the beach! Parked my car on arrival and didn't have to move it until I had to leave to go home. Can't wait to go back! We are thinking of doing it once a year at this very house because it was so perfect!

                        The minute we parked out front of this Beach Cottage I could see and feel the charm it had to offer and we could not wait to get inside....And once we did, we knew we had picked the perfect place. We all felt right at home with lots of room inside and outside. I must say the outside bathing area was a huge hit!! It was definitley a favorite with everyone... This is truley a special place and I am so glad we found it.... Already looking to rebook! :)

                        Me and my family have traveled using vrbo and are always excited to walk in for the first time. The "Shizzle" took the cake! This cottage isn't your typical "beach" unit. It has beautiful traditional decorations and you can tell a lot of care has gone into this home. We were so close to the beach and right near everything, we couldn't believe it. The cottage is so comfortable and the kids loved the bunk room too. My personal favorite was the outdoor shower that has a wooden tub. That was the ticket - after a long day on the beach, we all would go in there and either shower or get in the tub..so it really minimized tracking sand in. We are excited to return next year! Thanks for a job well done.
