Enchanting Spacious Beach House With Hot Tub, Game Room, Tiki Bar & Fishing Dock

As 3 families, 9 people total we spent 8 days (a few spent 9 days) at this hideaway in paradise. The home and location offered everything we could have never ever imagined, even after reading the reviews, looking into amenities offered and checking out the pictures. We all had lots to do collectively like sunning, fishing and sport challenges in the game area. Several of us took over the amazing kitchen and soon decided eating out would be less enjoyable than cooking everyday and eating on the balcony screen porch or downstairs. The kitchen had everything to make anything one could desire. My daughter learned how to make an onion mum simply because there was an onion mum maker in the cabinet, although we weren’t initially sure what the contraption was! I guess because you can catch a ton of crabs, there was everything needed to make anything crab and fish related. Even a crab and black redfish recipe in our welcome gift bucket with blacken spices and lots of other goodies we were given. The house was spotless and smelled heavenly the moment we walked in. We set off the smoke alarm twice so my only suggestion would be to highlight that easy fix on the check in information sent to us. Once we re read it, after the 2nd time it never went off again despite our onslaught of cooking. The owners were quick to respond to any questions we had before we arrived and during our time there. Great suggestions every time we hit them up for info! Christina and Mark, thank you for helping us make lasting memories. We have a family Xmas list started now. My brother in law wants a barbecue grill like yours, my daughter wants that fondue set she didn’t get to try (she took a pic) and I want a real Wok again. I forgot how fun and easy it is to cook Chinese food in a real wok. We’re all talking about coming back next October. Your home is the best rental experience we’ve ever had!

Planned a Florida beach trip and had to cancel/reschedule because of red tide/Hurricane Michael. We had an awesome trip. House was in a great location for our family. My husband and I, two grown sons and their families with young grandchildren and family pet. Plenty of room for all. Easy beach access for the little ones going back and forth from the beach. Plenty of room in the house for everyone to have a little privacy. Ground level area is amazing. Something for everyone. Fell in love with the kitchen. Husband is now upset about expense to redo our kitchen at home. Cannot say enough good things about this house.

Would for sure rent again as for my friends and I was perfect.Much to entertain with and the drive to and from in the morning and evening was beautiful!

There were so many great things about this place that I don't know where to begin. First of all the location between the river and the Gulf was perfect. My husband loved the river and he spent most of the time fishing and crabbing. It was so cool to see my grandkids bonding with their papa while he was doing what he loved. My kids and grandkids loved the beach. The weather while we were there wasn't all that great for a beach trip. But this place had plenty of other things to do between rainstorms. We all enjoyed the downstairs area with the pool table, the pingpong table, and lots of space to just sit and make memories. The house itself was decorated beautifully. In addition, it was spacious and had all the comforts of home. I can't forget to mention how Christina treated us so kindly. Any questions that I had were answered quickly and respectfully. I surely would recommend this place to others. My kids and grandkids are hoping to make this one of our regular vacation spots. I'm looking forward to returning as well.

I honestly don’t have enough space to give the rave reviews to the Island House that it needs. But, to start, you come down the most quaint beachfront road to a fully equipped oasis. The house is amazing & prepared to entertain your family. You come in the house to a welcome basket with things for the kids, adults & animals in your party. The gaming area downstairs is absolutely an amazing space for all ages. We had so much fun playing baggos & darts. My husband & children spent hours at the dock catching crab & watching wildlife. And the beach is heavenly. It’s just a minutes walk from the house AND they have an outdoor shower so you don’t track sand in the house! Christina is fully available to communicate with if you need anything. We were so impressed with this house & hope to be back in the very near future!
