Very good

We had a great stay. It is a beautiful home in a very quiet neighborhood only a short drive from the beach. We had plenty of room for our group of 5. The check in process was very easy. We would definitely stay here again.
This property is the perfect distance from the beach and far away from the touristy traffic. We had plenty of room to spread out. Everything we could need was provided.

Definitely bate and switch
Picture on line and actual were deceiving and house can definitely stand more upgrades. Curtains were nearly hanging in one room while house were clean it had an old house order. Recommend a 360 aroma. Yard was over grown looking nothing like the well manicured yard on line. Owner must do yard and house checked prior to rentals arrive.
Absolutely stunning and great neighborhood. We enjoyed the beaches every day and the home was beautiful as well

About the host
Hosted by Melissa Cato
I grew up and attended college in North Georgia and made the move to the beautiful Florida Panhandle in 2005 with my children. Here, I met my wonderful husband, Brett, and together we've created a big, beautiful family. When I'm not managing my small business or working on our rental properties, I cherish the time spent with our five children and five grandchildren. Being a host allows me the flexibility to maximize time with my family. I also take great pleasure in creating beautiful spaces for both our family and our guests to enjoy, fostering memories that will last a lifetime.

What makes this property unique
Private, spacious home that sleeps eight. Lot borders woods on two sides. Just steps from the Bay and a short drive to the beach! The house is located in a safe, walkable neighborhood.
We added a game room recently that includes board games, a dart board, air hockey table and basketball game.
A wonderful family retreat, with plenty of space to spread out, and a cozy place to make memories.
