The Bunk Room sleeps five with custom built-in luxury bunks which include personal reading lights, a charging station and private storage for each occupant.

The screened-in side porch offers a covered outdoor living and dining space large enough for al fresco dining, entertaining or gaming.
The beach is a short walk, less than 5 minutes on foot with PUBLIC BEACH ACCESS at the outfall. Or, launch in one of the included water conveyances from the dock and paddle to the outfall where the Gulf and lake meet. Kids can swim in the protected pool at the intersection of Gulf and lake water.
Burning Daylight guests can rinse off after a day at the beach in the private outdoor shower and drop towels and bathing suits off in the sand room to take advantage of the full-size washer and dryer. Enjoy a game of ping pong in the garage while your bathing suit is on the spin cycle.
Burning Daylight sits on Eastern Lake, one of the 14 rare dune lakes that dot the 30A landscape. Easily explore all of 30A from Grayton Beach to Rosemary Beach and everywhere in-between. Seaside and all of the resort communities are an easy bike ride or short car ride away. Burn daylight shopping, dining and exploring the amenities each of these communities have to offer and then return to Burning Daylight's outdoor deck, where there's room for your whole group to watch the remaining daylight burn over the lake and the Gulf simultaneously.

This home was ideal for our family. The bed in the primary BR now faces the lake, so when you wake, you're looking out on Eastern lake and seeing the fish jump! It was fun to have bags/corn hole and ping ping, and the kayak to use. Also, the convenience of being able to walk to the Beachy Bean for coffee or pizza was enjoyable. The walk to the beach was quick and easy too-such a great neighborhood, we'd love to return!
We had an exceptional time at burning daylight. The host provided us with excellent communication and our expectations were exceeded from the moment we stepped in this BEAUTIFUL home. The view, proximity to beach, amenities, and host sealed the deal on a perfect trip to seagrove :)
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Burning Daylight. The home is absolutely beautiful and very well appointed. The kitchen had everything we needed and having access to beach chairs, paddles boards, etc. was greatly appreciated. The host was very quick to respond and the cinnamon rolls upon arrival were a thoughtful touch. We will definitely be back!
This house is fantastic! Adorably appointed, fully stocked with everything you will need, and in such a great location. You cannot beat the water views from every room and the high end finishes. You feel like you are sitting right on the lake. The host is very helpful and has truly made it feel like a vacation oasis. We appreciated that we didn’t need to bring a single thing for the beach and the use of all the lake toys made the experience so fun for the kids. Short walk to the beach was so easy with back pack chairs and large wagon. Everything feels new and clean. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us.
Can’t overemphasize how well appointed this place is for groups, especially those including the children. The kitchen has everything you need to cook for large groups, from two refrigerators and dishwashers to high quality cooking utensils, knives, etc. The upstairs has a bunk room with multiple beds and a bathroom with multiple showers making it very easy for groups traveling with multiple children. We’ll definitely be back.
Great location and house! Everything you need is included in your stay…everything! The host is welcoming, responds quickly and is so kind! We highly recommend!!!!
The house was perfect for our family and friends. We loved the view off the back porch and dock. It was a lovely home with all the amenities anyone could ask for.
This house is an AMAZING place to stay! We had four adults and four teenagers and had so much space. The house is beautiful and incredibly clean. It has a dream kitchen, a ton of beach gear, beautiful views, and it’s a short walk or paddle to the beach. Andra is wonderful; very responsive and helpful. We will be staying here again. If you are considering this property, you should book it!
The house was pretty perfect! It was clean, cozy and had everything we needed. The location on the lake was really awesome and we can’t wait to come back.
House was beautiful and well equipped. Having the lake and water toys were a great bonus. We will definitely stay here again!

The house was perfect, lots of space for a family to enjoy. Kitchen is extremely well equipped. Paddling on the lake was fun. It was great to be able to get up every morning and take a walk on the beach.

The house & location is beautiful! Our family enjoyed the unbelievable views of the lake & outdoor activities.

We had the best family vacation ever! The house was stocked with everything you can think of. We played at the lake and walked a short distance to the beach every day. The kids swam, fished & took the kayaks out. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us. The check in process was so easy. We also loved all of the recommendations of places to eat at. We are already planning for next year!!
Family loved this place and all its amenities. The bunk room was perfect for the kids. The queen beds upstairs left a little to be desired but still comfortable.
Would stay again for sure!
