Come stay on 30A in Old Seagrove Beach, where old fashioned, small town ways still exist in this fabulous Key West inspired home we call "Vacherie". Relax on the double front porches overlooking the beautiful Gulf of Mexico, which is a short 1 to 2 minute walk away. Enjoy the unobstructed views of the Gulf of Mexico from the porch rocking chairs and the large open 26 x 40 living room/kitchen/dining room as well as the master bedroom, den and upstairs bedrooms. From our porches, you can watch the famous Seaside 4th of July parade right in front of the house.

"Vacherie" is located one mile east of Seaside, convenient for biking on the paths to Seaside and Watercolor. The Watercolor Publix is less than a mile away. After a day on the sugar white sands of the beach, come up and relax in your own private 12 X 24 heated pool with patio furniture and tables for relaxing, BBQing and eating. Let the kids swim while you grill dinner. After dinner, pull out the cue sticks and challenge dad to a game of 8 ball on the Olhausen 7' Pool Table.

Everyone can spread out in the five large bedrooms, five baths, plus a den with a pool table, where the kids can hang out in their own space. The living room is also equipped with an awesome 42" TV, great for watching sporting events and movies. The house sleeps 16, including three king beds, two queen beds, and a bunk room with three sets of bunk beds. Our continuous hot water Rinnai system allows all 16 guests an endless supply of hot showers. All bedrooms have televisions w/ DVD players and the family room and downstairs den have surround sound speakers. The family room also has an iPod docking station.

Everyone can enjoy a meal together with a large dining room table seating 12, plus a large bar separating the kitchen and living room, plus a breakfast nook/game table. You'll love the open floor plan upstairs, with the living room, kitchen, and dining overlooking the beach, plus two bedrooms (one king bed and two queen beds) and a bathroom. Downstairs includes the master bedroom and bath, with garden tub, separate shower. There's also the bunk room and a king bedroom, each with their own baths and a den with sleeper sofa.

There are gorgeous stained concrete floors downstairs, and beautiful travertine upstairs. The custom kitchen is warm and inviting with pine cabinets, DCS double ovens and gas cooktop and stainless appliances. There's room for more than one cook here, and you're still visiting with the family in the living room.

Enjoy the Old Florida style decorating, making this home look like it has been there for years, with a mix of antiques and reproductions your grandmother would love, in beautiful ocean colors of aqua, blue, and green. There's even a 100 year old canoe in the den!

Around the house and pool, relax and enjoy the lush, tropical landscaping consisting of over 20 palm trees, fragrant gardenias, confederate jasmine, flowery agapantha, Rose of Sharon, split leaf phylodendron and wax myrtles.

So you don't leave without enjoying one of Seagrove Beach's most popular activities, Bike riding, Butterfly Bike shop will rent bikes to you. The pool can be heated for your enjoyment for an additional charge.

  • This was the perfect spot for my friends and I to bring our families. There were 5 families and 7 kids under the age of 2. There was plenty of space for all of our toys and pack-n-plays. I have stayed in other houses in the same area and this was by far the best. We had such a good time just hanging out in the big kitchen and at the pool. We are going to be coming back, when our kids are little bit older!

  • The entire family loved every minute of living at Vacherie this week. Mackenzie, 10, said it best: I [heart] this house best of all! We've stayed in several VRBO homes, but this one fit us best of all, from the spacious pool room just perfect for endless games of Wii, to the wide-open family area where we cooked, ate and painted pictures. We did have a mishap - a plastic pitcher broke, so we replaced it with a palm-tree pitcher to match the gorgeous trees in the front lawn. The balcony with rocking chairs was a huge hit with adults seeking a few minutes solace from our madding crowd. Thanks for sharing such a wonderful vacation place. Know that we'll be in touch for a return visit.

  • Vacherie was just the perfect place for our family to celebrate Thanksgiving and my 70th..ouch...birthday.....We've rented other places over the years and I can say without reservation that Vacherie immediately impressed me with the cleanliness and superb condition of everything both inside and out!!! Sometimes these places are a little "worn around the edges" but you all do a wonderful job with ongoing maintenance to provide an A+ property for your guests! The floorplan was great...we loved the privacy of the master being on the first floor...away from the early morning sounds in the kitchen area as I had a week holiday from all cooking!! The bunk room and other bedroom downstairs were great for our grandchildren and the parents of our youngest who is 2 1/2....He got to "bunk" in with his big cousins but still his parents were in close proximity!!! We spent lots and lots of time in and around the pool..After one little blip on the first day...which Andy responded to in about 5 minutes...the heated pool was just the ticket after a trip to the beach...since we did have surfers and kayakers they loved to go from the rather chilly waters to the warmth of the pool. Some of us just enjoyed the very ample seating and lounging areas poolside! All in all I couldn't imagine any other house working so well for us...when someone wanted to "get lost" from the crowd everyone had their own private suites....and as you had assured me the kitchen was outfitted to the hilt for our Thanksgiving meal.... Enuf said....WE LOVED IT AND WILL RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE WE KNOW WHO MIGHT THINK OF HEADING THAT DIRECTION!! Best wishes for a wonderful holiday season!

  • Loved the house and location. Short walk to beach with easy access. Floor plan of the house was one of the best we have seen. All bedrooms and baths were spacious and perfect with 3 bedrooms (master and kids bunk room) on the first floor with 2 large bedrooms on 2nd floor. Open concept of kitchen/dining/den area on the 2nd floor with balcony overlooking the gulf was great. All amenities including the pool table, gas grill, pool, kayak were put to good use by Team Langston.

  • The house was great. We had a group of 14, 6 adults and 8 kids. We've rented big beach houses in Seagrove for 7 years now and this one was our favorite overall. The pool area is nice and the walk to the beach is short. The upstairs living area is very large which allowed the whole group to enjoy the area at once which is nice. But the thing that puts this house over the top is the pool table. The kids loved and the adults too. Probably try to rent again next year.

  • The property was great. We had plenty of room and the walk to the beach was short and easy. We drove up and down 30-A to see the other communities and were thrilled to be in Seagrove. We loved the outdoor shower and the kids used it often after the beach. Even when the neighbors were outside at their pool, there was plenty of privacy. I liked being able to walk to the fitness classes just down the road. We also found a great restaurant, Angelina's within walking distance. Thanks for a great vacation. I will recommend this house and community again and again.

  • The home was very comfortable for a large group. There were 8 adults and 7 children and we had plenty of room. The pool area was great, especially for the young children we had with us. We enjoyed renting bikes, swimming and kayaking. It was one of the most relaxing vacations we have taken in some time. The landscaping was very well done and made it very enjoyable while sitting out on the decks and front porch. We really enjoyed sitting upstairs on the deck and letting the little ones run around with no access to stairs. We did a lot of people watching. They did a lot of looking as they went by too, the house is beautiful. I was dreading the walk across the street to the beach, but it really was not bad. We usually stay on the beach side of the road, so weren't sure about the trek to the beach. It was nice having the ramp to the beach so we could roll the wagon with all our stuff in it so we didn't have to carry it. The kitchen was very well equipped. The dishwasher was not working the week we were there, but there was plenty of soap to wash. We cooked in almost every meal since we had so many little ones and the kitchen was a great size. It's a great place to stay. We enjoyed it.
