About this property

Newly Remodeled House with new Pool! Only 6 miles to beach!

The Area:
The house is only 6 miles from the beautiful Emerald Coast beach! Also, within our neighborhood it’s a five-minute walk to small beach on the bay where small boats can also be launched at no cost! There are at least 5 other launches nearby for larger boats. Nearby are state parks, museum, 3 golf courses, the Gulfarium Marine park, Okaloosa pier, Okaloosa island beach access, Destin Harbor walk, putt-putt golf courses, go cart tracks, adventure park, and MANY fun things to do within 15-minute drive! If you adventure further, you can drive down scenic 30A to Panama City or to Navarre and Pensacola to the West. I recommend you check out the many Destin travel videos on YouTube. One in particular by Tampa Aerial Media is extremely detailed and even shows you the prices of the various activity and event options.

The Home:
The home is located in a quiet cul-de-sac with absolutely no through traffic. Great for your peace, relaxation and safety of your children. This home was recently totally remodeled and is FULLY furnished for your vacation! Large 2,100 square ft home with 3 bedrooms. Master has a large King bed. Second bedroom with a Queen and third bedroom with 2 twins. Two bathrooms. The master has a walk-in shower. Massive open area with kitchen, dining room and living room combined for plenty of room to spread out. Large modern washer and dryer.

The Pool and Backyard:
Brand new pool going in NOW! The old pool was 12 feet deep and a hazard. This new one is only 4 1/2 ft at the deep end. Perfect and safe for the entire family. As of 29 April, the liner is in place and it is being filled. They then geal coat the sides (paint them) and it should be ready for swimming by 4 May for guests to enjoy. I do however, require all adult guests to sign safety and release waiver for them, their guests and their children. See rental agreement for details. The outbuilding has its own bathroom with indoor and outdoor shower for your use when enjoying the pool. There are several chairs, tables and area to spread out by the pool or under cover by the back of the house. The grill is available for your use as well.

Need Extra Space?
If you have more than 6 guests, you can also rent the newly built cabana (mini apartment) by the pool for small additional fee. It has a new Queen bed and pullout sofa as well as its own in unit refrigerator, sink, microwave, coffee pot, and refrigerator with downstairs bathroom.

Other Amenities:
You get much more than any standard rental. We provide a complimentary bottle of wine, coffee and some drinks. The remodeled kitchen not only has all what you would expect but also includes extra amenities such as air fryer, rice cooker, and MANY cooking containers and utensils. Cupboard is full of pots, pans, dishes and everything you would have at home, plus more! You can borrow an extra fold-out table for your grilling. I also have probably dozen beach towels, a beach umbrella, floaties, inner tubes, several coolers and plenty of extras you can borrow for the pool or the beach!

We aim for your Satisfaction!
We live just across the street and available for your questions, concerns or perhaps to let you borrow something not in the house. Check my satisfaction rating on my other property at listing 2115124. I am one of very few with over 70 ratings and they are all 5-star! I aim to satisfy my guests.

Rental Agreement:
Please read the rental agreement for your safety and ours. Each adult will sign a copy upon arrival to ensure a safe and responsible environment.

Fishing trip
We have a boat at two George’s marina and didn’t want to stay on the beach. This property is very convenient to get to the marina. We stayed in the main house and the pool house. Both were perfect for what we were doing. The main house has lots of space and even with seven people we never feel cramped. All the beds were very comfortable and the main house bathrooms were very nice. The pool house bathroom is not air conditioned so it gets a little stuffy in there when taking a shower. That really didn’t bother any of us but if that is a concern you could always go in one of the main house bathrooms to shower. Will definitely stay here again!

Overall
Overall a great experience. The house host was super friendly and helpful. The house was clean and we really enjoyed the privacy of being in a house as opposed to a large condo. Conveniently located close to the beach. Quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed our stay and we will be booking again when we get ready for another family beach trip!!

About the host

Hosted by William M Ford

Host profile image
Mike is a retired Army Officer. Chi works locally on Eglin AFB and takes good care of the property. We live directly across the street to be able to answer any questions or take care of issues. We also manage a property in Destin at the Emerald Grande. We maintain a 4.9 star rating there! We hope to match it at this house as well. Just give us a try.

Why they chose this property

This property is minutes from the beach but allows some seclusion since it is located on a quiet cul-de-sac. Huge outdoor pool with an 8 ft. deep end. Charcoal grill by pool for your use. House was completely remodeled last year as was the cabana.

What makes this property unique

Huge open floor plan encompasses the Living and Dinning Rooms, Kitchen and a sitting area. Your own private swimming pool with an outdoor shower and a separate bathroom in the cabana by the pool. Extra guests can stay in the cabana for a small extra fee. Even though this is a new listing, just check out our perfect rating for our other property in Destin under VRBO listing 2115124.
