We are from Perry and always come and stay somewhere at the beach for Thanksgiving. This place had everything I needed to cook and was really lacking none. I forgot my cheese grader and was freaking out and when we got to the house she had 2. The house was actually very spacious too. Plan to stay again for scalloping season!

About the host

Hosted by Lisa Maxwell

Host profile image
My husband and I live in Crawfordville. I grew up in Taylor County and have a fond memories of summers at Dekle Beach. We both love fishing and spending time with friends and family. My husband loves to cook so we enjoy fishing and cooking our catch.

Why they chose this property

I grew up in Taylor County so I had many fond childhood memories spending summers and special occasions at Dekle Beach. Many of my childhood friends owned property at Dekle Beach so when I had the chance to purchase property and build a house, I jumped on it!

What makes this property unique

Excellent fishing, scalloping, bird watching and beautiful sunsets and small friendly community. So very Thankful the house survived Hurricane Helene with mostly damage to the mezzanine.
