Mary, I wish you had said something during your stay about the elevator. I'm always around and ready to respond to any issues. I went as soon as I read this and found the elevator is working normally. Not sure what issue you had, but there is no problem with the elevator. Sometimes people unfamiliar with the operation of residential elevator don't realize you have to have both doors closed to call the elevator to another floor. We would love to have you back and I'll be sure to come give you a tutorial on the operation ;)

Beautiful Beach Home!
We had a wonderful stay at Alligator Point! The house was beautiful, kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed and the fish cleaning station was a great bonus for our family that loves to fish on the beach. This is our third trip to Alligator Point and it’s always a great time!

Om værten
Vært: Chip Cordell/Josh Simmons
I was born and raised in Tallahassee and our family "beach cottage" was built at Alligator Point when I was 12. My family spent late May through early September and many weekends there. It was Home. My childhood was a grand time of water-skiing, fishing, scalloping, exploring, and numerous other childhood endeavors. I graduated from FSU then Veterinary School at Auburn University. I founded Tallahassee Veterinary Hospital and practiced small animal medicine and surgery for 36 years. I am married to Charlotte and have three daughters and seven grandchildren, all living in Tallahassee. In 1987, I built "Shifting Sands" at Alligator Point as a weekend home for my growing family as well as a future retirement home. We moved to Alligator Point in 2008 and lived at "Shifting Sands" until my wife's health forced a move back to Tallahassee in 2016. In 2021, the house was updated and renovated and ready for others to enjoy as we have. We miss life at Alligator Point and visit every chance we get. It's heartwarming to think of other families making memories doing the same things we enjoyed so much at "Shifting Sands". One of those favorite memories that I'm sure you'll love is sunset walks on the beach. Enjoy!
Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted
"Shifting Sands" is built on the gulf-front property directly across the road from the bay house built by my parents in 1957, the "beach cottage" of my youth.
Derfor er dette overnatningssted unikt
"Shifting Sands" has a comfortable, relaxed beach character with all of the modern conveniences. The view of the beach and gulf from an elevated position gives a good angle to everyone in the kitchen and family room. Porpoise frequently teach their young to fish as we watch. Heron and gulls feed almost constantly. Neighbors wave as they walk past on the beach. The porch swing on the front deck is tailor-made for daydreaming.
