Memories at CSB

Baytripper is a beautiful home in a very well maintained and quiet neighborhood. The house is in a great location on the North end between the beach and the bay. The house is very well appointed and was spotless on our arrival. The beds were super comfortable. We enjoyed the infinity pool overlooking the bay. We plan to return as soon as we can!

Family Thanksgiving

Great home, great location, exactly as described. The home is well stocked with everything you could possibly need. The views and ocean breeze were amazing. The best part however, were our hosts Donna and Brian, they were tremendously helpful and responsive, each every recommendation they made for our family turned out to be prefect. Trust them, they know what they are doing and they know the area!

Coming back next year

We loved our stay. The house is a great set up for the 2 couples and a single that stayed. Even had room for a couple of sort term guests. We rent a lot from VRBO, and I have never seen a better stocked kitchen in any of our previous rentals. Lots of good quality pots and pans, dishes, glasses and every kitchen tool you need. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms great, nice living room setup and the location is excellent. We’ve already booked it for next year.

Can't beat Ovation at Cape San Blas

This was our 5th time to the Cape. We love it there and would never stay in any community besides Ovation. The infinity pool on the bay side is like being at a resort. All of the amenities are top notch. We really enjoyed this particular house. It is very well appointed and had everything we needed. We also rented a cart, bikes, chairs and an umbrella with the included rental credit. That worked out extremely well. Would stay here again for sure!

Ovation is a great development on Cape San Blas. The pools, hot tub, tennis courts, fitness room, pier on the bay and easy beach access make this community a winner. Bay Tripper offers awesome access to all amenities and delivers amazing accommodations. The home is almost new, upscale and exceptionally well appointed. Be Our Guest again soon!

50th Wedding Anniversary

Celebrated my parents 50th wedding anniversary and absolutely adored the property, location and region. We have been to Ovation before, but this is the nicest home we have stayed in. Our family cam in form Utah to join us and loved it. The property is clean, new, full of amenities and beach toys and the property manager went above and beyond to communicate with us and ensure that we were having a wonderful time. We will be back for sure. Thank you!

Wonderful House!

We fully enjoyed our stay at BayTripper! The house was clean and well maintained. The kitchen was very well equipped. It was the perfect size for two adults and four teenagers. The king mattress on the upper level was a bit hard for my liking but my husband liked it. The teenagers each reported comfortable mattresses in the rest of the house. We loved having the bayside amenities and the kayak and fully enjoyed the outdoor deck space.

Big 4 bedroom house in amazing location.

This house for our group of 9 served us well. Lots of room for everyone to sleep and spread out with the porches and seating. Beautiful views and the house very nicely furnished. Loved the extra beach towels, paddle board, and beach chairs. Those came in handy. We love the bayside of Ovation for our boat and the beautiful pool. Not too far from beach either especially with the golf carts we rented. There is construction going on directly in front of house which wasn’t mentioned but it didn’t mess up our stay. Whoever gets downstairs master bedroom needs to know sun comes up in those windows so very bright very early. If you like to sleep in choose any of the other bedrooms. Overall we had a great week at this house and neighborhood. Definitely recommend it!

First Time on Bay Side

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family has been traveling to CSB for several years now and this was our first trip staying on the bay side. We absolutely loved everything about our 2 week stay at Bay Tripper. The house was beautiful and extremely clean. We were able to enjoy the amazing view, short walk to the bay and beach and the had fun at the pickleball court. The house has everything anyone could need or want. Great location, nicely stocked kitchen (appliances, pots/pans, spices) and other household items (shampoo/conditioner, bath soap, laundry detergent, trash bags, dish soap), plenty of seating inside and on the porch, board games and outdoor games and beach gear in the garage. We rented a golf cart to get my mother in law to and from the beach easily and we all had a lot of fun driving it to the beach. Donna was amazing to work with. She was easily reachable, answering all questions, which made everything easy when arriving. And although we had no issues, I felt I was in good hands if there were any.
