Great property, perfect for families with young children. Located right on the beach, easy access to shopping and food. Home is well stocked so staying in and cooking for a large group is a breeze. Well worth a stay and we are already looking for a return visit.
Our family fell in love with this rental. We have a large group (14) and the layout/spaces worked perfectly for the makeup of our family. The bunk room was great for the kids, parents had their own private spaces, it worked out really well. The views from the porch and inside the house are spectacular. This will be the first place we look to rent for return vacations in the future.
This beach house was perfect for our family including our adult kids and grandchildren. Beautiful home with plenty of space, amazing beach access and awesome outdoor spaces. We will definitely stay here again!
Our group has enjoyed visiting this home since it was built. Kara's renovation several years ago made wonderful improvements to the kitchen and baths. The views (both day and night) and the beach are wonderful and cannot be improved. Our group members are counting the days until we return to Seas the Day in May 2027!
The house was perfect for what our family needed. Having 3 bedrooms on the main floor was a miracle find for us. Such an easy path to the beach from the back porch. All the deck areas and the huge table outside watching the waves! We had more than we needed. We all struggled with the cooktops - temperature control and location - but if that was the only struggle, we're doing just fine! Thank you So much for allowing us to stay.
It was the best stay we could ask for. We wanted a beachfront property and that’s what we got. Kara was great with communication, location was stunning, amenities were great. We will definitely come back again.
We have been vacationing along 30A for years and this was by far our favorite beach vacation! The house is beautiful and spacious and the location is perfection. Can’t wait to come back for another visit!

I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope you come back as well.
Annual 30a Family Beach trip met our expectations. The location of this house is fabulous! Views were gorgeous and savored by all. Well stocked kitchen, ice maker spoiled us all week, extra large laundry, and plenty of outside deck areas for hangouts delighted our group of 12. Thanks!
Kara’s place in Gulf Trace doesn’t disappoint. Beautiful setting, extremely comfortable and clean, tastefully decorated & great kitchen. Plus Kara is always super prompt with recommendations and answers to questions.
Fantastic family vacation! Everything we needed was available. Loved having the chairs set up for us daily on the beach & that we can walk out the back door and are to the chairs in a few steps. Our 2nd year in roll at the same stop. All 12 is enjoyed the whole week. Great family memories!!
Seas the day is perfect for a large group. The house is well stocked.
The location is great. It was a quick drive to anything on 30a and is right on the beach.
Wonderful house for gathering with friends & family! The location was perfect and the house very functional, from the large table for dining to the multi level decks! Very nice it was a private beach with beach chair service! The kitchen was well stocked and the built in ice machine was ideal!

About the host
Hosted by Kara Plaster
We are from Tulsa Oklahoma and purchased the home after searching for a private beach community that is family friendly. We love the proximity to the restaurants that 30a has to offer without the beach crowds during the day. We have a large family and found many houses didn't quite accommodate our family. We bought this home and rent it to families like ours.
Why they chose this property
This is a unique property that is situated in the middle of the Grayton Beach State Park. This stretch of beach remains uncrowded even at the peak of summer.
