GOOD HAVEN HOUSE
See more pictures, get area information, a link to our blog and an interactive map on our web site. The link is below, right under the CALENDAR button.
NEW FOR 2016! We've replaced the carpet with hardwood and tile floors throughout the house, completely remodeled our kitchen and added a 50" LED HD Smart TV and a bigger flat-screen tv in the master bedroom! New pictures posted here, and lots more on Flickr!
You'll find our well-loved family beach house casually furnished in comfortable 'Shabby-chic', 'Country-Living' cottage style. Relax and enjoy yourself - nothing is fussy or precious. Soothing colors, abundant warm sunshine, cooling breezes and life on the water close to nature are what this house is all about.
You'll also find many amenities in our home that you won't find in other vacation homes because we and our friends actually stay here as often as possible!
Our favorites include: Family games, beach towels, sun hats, books, DVDs, cookbooks, tons of kitchen equipment to prepare and serve big meals, charcoal grill, and beach toys are all here for you to use and enjoy. Big chaise lounges to sun bathe, a shady porch swing, and a cozy chair by the fireplace for you to put your feet up for that very occasional rainy day are also part of the package.
All rooms (except the twin bedroom and the laundry room) have expansive views of Perdido Bay. Eight people can sleep comfortably on one king, one queen, two twin, and two sleeper sofas. Also two twin air mattresses for overnight guests or children.
All bedrooms have ample reading lights and ceiling fans and are comfortable places to curl up in for privacy. The master suite (king-sized bed) has its own private bath and the other two bedrooms share a bath. Both baths have tubs with showers. The master bath has a double bowl vanity.
The dining room table seats six and altogether with two loveseats, a huge coffee table and a big round folding table, we can seat fourteen or more in the open living/dining room indoors. Another eight can sit on the open bay side deck at the round wrought iron table with a big umbrella.
Good Haven House is on the shores of pristine Perdido Bay - about halfway out on Innerarity Point. Sun, swim, fish, crab, and snorkel right from the dock in your own front yard! You can also keep your boat, be it kayak, canoe, shallow draft power boat, raft, or jet ski tied up there as well.
Great outdoor spaces include a big sunny 50 foot x 10 foot deck (walk out from living room and master bedroom), 30 foot x 20 foot screen room, a shady patio area under deck on the bay side with a porch swing to while away hot afternoons, an open outdoor shower to wash off sand and salty water, and a bright balcony off the dining room.
The 60 foot private dock features stairs up to a sun deck with lounge chairs. At the end of the pier is the perfect place to renew and do your morning yoga or relax at the end of another perfect day and watch the sun drop down into Perdido Bay, one of the most spectacular sunsets on the coast! If you're lucky you can also watch the dolphins cruise by looking for their fish dinner.
Catch your own dinner right from the pier. Mullet (if you know how to throw a net), red fish, snapper, and crab are among some of the seafood we've caught out there.
A two acre yard for you to play ball, badminton, barbeque, have picnics, catch frogs, play hide and seek, and climb the old live oak with a good book. The kids can pitch a tent and have the thrill of sleeping out under the stars and being lulled to sleep by the waves lapping at the shore. There's also plenty of room for you to park your RV.
Located about 2 miles from 2 large grocery stores, a hardware store, a bait and tackle shop, 2 gas stations, and several family restaurants, and 3 miles to the beautiful beaches on Perdido Key, we're close enough to be convenient, far enough away for the peaceful serenity you come on vacation for.
Our property is a wonderful place to have your small wedding or as a venue for bridal or baby showers.
We welcome well behaved pets to come on vacation with their owners.

Hey Kelley, thanks for the wonderful review. Will pass along the praise to our housekeeper, she works so hard and does such a amazing job of keeping Good Haven House spotlessly clean, stocked and ready for our guests. I don't know what I'd do without her! Have a great rest of your summer, Susan
My family had the pleasure of staying had plenty of room for us and our pets very clean everything was easy to find and it was so peaceful with a beautiful view would definitely stay again if the chance comes forward

Love this place! All the amenities you need for a wonderful stay. Beautiful view of bay. Shopping and restaurants nearby. Perfect location. Will be back again, hopefully very soon!

Hey Kelly,
We're so happy you and your family could come again this year and enjoy the house!
The house was exactly as listed with everything we needed for a wonderful week on the bay. The permanent neighbors on both sides were wonderfully kind and offered a lot of suggestions on local places for food, fresh seafood, and more. Host was incredibly responsive. After our first day, we added an extra night to our stay!

Wonderful
The beach house was perfect for our family it was nice and cozy we had everything that we needed. The scenery at the bay was nice a little to windy and cold but we enjoyed the time we spent there. It was nice that we were able to find a beach house that allowed pets to come along on this trip.
It was perfect for a fishing trip. Communication was great. I wish they had tv's in the bedrooms. Would definitely recommend

What a fabulous week! Loved GOOD HAVEN HOUSE! Was perfect for a family vacation, beautiful setting. Everything you could ever need. Beach nearby. Bay was great for fishing and crabbing. Very peaceful area but not more than a 10 minute drive to nearby shops restaurants etc.
Would definitely recommend GOOD HAVEN HOUSE!
We will be returning next year!

Dear Kelly,
Thank you so much for the lovely review. I'm so pleased that you and your family had a great vacation. We will look forward to having you as guests again next year. Thank you for choosing to stay with us at Good Haven House! - Susan
We liked the house; however the pictures and descriptions were not totally accurate. There was supposed to be a screened in lower level, but there was not. The screened in area was one of the main reasons we chose the house.

Karen, I'm so sorry you were disappointed in our property. Unfortunately we lost our sreen walls around the bottom portion of the house during Hurricane Sally, September of 2020. Due to availability and then to the prohibitive cost of wood we have not been able to replace them yet. I beleive I included an explanation of this in one of the first informational emails I sent. I'm so sorry if this information somehow didnt get to you. We should be able to replace our screening this winter barring any more disasters, natural or otherwise. Please consider giving us another try next year. Best regards, Susan

Wonderful and Hassel free!!!
I do not know were to start! This place is quiet and comfy. The best part is Susan is the best, she was there for our needs and such a pleasure to talk to, which you do not get very often any where, most of the time it is "fend for yourself". We had a wonderful time fishing from the dock and watching dolphins who were in the bay almost everyday. It was wonderful to look out the big sliding glass every morning when we woke up. Agree with the comments, eat at Triggers for breakfast..a little hole in the wall but the cheese grits are wonderful! There is a pet friendly beach on Perdido Bay #3 from 6a-10a, about 10 min from the house. Sadie loved it there to! We will be back :)

Sarah, thank you for your wonderful review. I'm so glad you had a peaceful vacation and that the dolphins visited you. We look forward to having you back again as guests at Good Haven House!
This property and the owners were great! Wonderful location, awesome response time with questions and a very quiet and relaxing stay! We will go again.
This property is perfect for a relaxing vacation! Exactly as described. The house was stocked with all the necessities and more. Close to the beach and great restaurants.
We enjoyed our week at the Good Haven House.! The whole house was very clean. The decor was an adorable cottage feel. Great views from the living/kitchen master and queen bedroom. The deck overlooking the water is large with a table to enjoy our meals and the view. We spent a lot of time on the dock/ sundeck just relaxing and watching the pelicans…. Don’t miss the beautiful sunset from the dock. The yard was huge and wooded/private. Susan was very quick answering any questions I had. Best part we were able to bring our dog along. Hopefully some day we’ll be back.
The property was as described and very quite with beautiful nature experiences. We had a large screech owl bust and a bald eagle, it was amazing! Thanks so much for sharing your home with my family and fur babies!
This home is very comfortable, clean and scenic. We enjoyed fishing from the dock, watching the dolphins swimming by daily and visiting the nearby beach.
This was a truly a cottage by the sea type property. The first thing that struck us was the view of the water from everywhere in the house! The house itself was so comfortable and had a beach cottage feel throughout. We could have stayed here for a month. The dock was our favorite experience of all. Each night we would watch beautiful sunsets and frequently see dolphins pass by. We also enjoyed watching four pelicans dive for their catch right in front of us. Overall this was one of the most enjoyable vacations we have had..... thank you Susan for letting us enjoy your beautiful property.

About the host
Hosted by Susan
We purchased our beach house with the hopes of retiring here one day. In the meantime, our family and friends visit as often as we can. We are happy to be able to share our vacation home with you. Our hope is to have you and your family stay here and enjoy it as much as we do. Relax, spend quality time with the people who mean the most to you and make great memories at Good Haven House. Thanks, Susan and Peter
Why they chose this property
We chose the Perdido area for it's wonderful Southern sensibilities and it's proximity to the pristine, uncrowded, sugar white sand beaches of the Gulf of Mexico. We chose Innerarity Point specifically because it's a 'local' neighborhood. No highrises or traffic here. All of our great neighbors are full time residents.
What makes this property unique
Nature is all around from the dolphins cruising by the dock to birds, small animals and frogs in the woods. Quiet, the smell of clean air, the gentle lapping of the water, a storm blowing up from the Gulf on a hot summer afternoon, and incredible sunsets over the bay.
