Why the Owner Chose Summerhouse
We fell in love with Destin when we first visited in 2001. Consequently, we purchased our two end units in Destin, hired local property managers to manage our property. Our local managers are instructed to keep the property in tip top shape and ensuring 100% satisfaction to our guests. Most of our business is repeated business and word of mouth referrals. We look forward to serving all of your vacation needs in Destin.
The Unique Benefits at this 2 BR/2.5 BA Townhome
When we started looking for vacation property in Destin, we wanted a location that was friendly, family oriented, clean, well manicured and close to the beach. By sheer luck, we ran into Summerhouse and we felt this was a well kept secret in Destin. Summerhouse townhomes is a beach subdivision with only 29 units shaped in the letter U with the tips of the letter U facing the beach. Within 3 years we purchased the best two units in the complex. Both end units are facing and closest to the beach.
