Great location

The house is located within easy walking distance to several beaches, restaurants, and Destin Commons. It is a great small house that was clean and had everything to enjoy both our time there and at the beach. The host was very easy to work with and even approved us extending our stay on short notice. The neighborhood is quiet at night and the person staying at the main house was very private and we felt comfortable chilling in the pool.

Perfect Anniversary Getaway !

A great place for a couple. The private pool was clean and refreshing. The location was excellent! Many great restaurants and necessary shopping near by. Although it rained most of our stay, the short walk to the beach made it very nice when we did go. Very private setting and everything we needed was provided.

Prefect trip

We loved the cottage and the neighbor. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed for our trip. It was close to the beach, restaurants we wanted to try and it had everything we needed for our trip. We would love to come back and I already have recommended the cottage because it was so great.

We loved everything about this place except the distance to the beach was a little further than we expected , we drove to the public beach access area but you have to get there very early or you'll never find a parking spot. We loved everything except that
