We loved staying in this cottage. We walked to restaurants. We used the wagon and chairs and walked 5 minutes to the beach. The cottage is adorable, well stocked, updated and well maintained. The host was available by phone and text, was helpful with all of our inquiries and wanted us to have a good experience. There are lots of books and my favorite spot was the front porch. I hope to visit again.

Great location! Perfect spot for our crew.

Over all excellent location, and space was great. Owner showed up at 10, and surprised we weren’t gone when check out is at 11, and seemed annoyed we hadn’t left yet. We had previously communicated we would be leaving at 11am.

Spotless! Classic old school beach town vibe!

This bungalow in the heart of Grayton was perfect for walking to the beach and restaurants. The home was absolutely spotless and the old world southern beach town charm was perfect for a relaxing weekend. I took several pics to use when we build our retirement house. We had a minor issue that was addressed asap. Great host who responded quickly. We will definitely stay here again!!

Great vacation house!

This house is so beautiful. Although it is old you can really tell that the owners have great taste. Everything has been updated and is quality. It is pretty close to the beach and a few restaurants. It is a small house but gorgeous. The beds were so comfortable and I loved the kitchen. I would recommend this house to the pickiest renters.

Thank you so much! We are happy to have helped your family create some memories that will last a lifetime. Spending time in Grayton Beach is like going back in time and is a unique area. Our cottage was actually built in 1938 one of the originals. We find it quite comfortable ourselves . You all are welcome back anytime . Thanks

Just Perfect

Great place to relax and bring in the new year! Short stroll to the beach, local restaurants and park. We were at home the minute we arrived and found the house to be clean, comfortable & cozy. Both the deck and front porch were our favorite spots to spend hours talking and simply relaxing. Sherry was great to work with and we are looking forward to returning soon!

Pefect Little Beach Cottage!

Wow...our stay at this adorable little cottage in Grayton Beach was wonderful. The location is perfect, just a few short blocks from several great little restaurants, bars (with live music nightly), shops and the white sand beaches; no need to drive anywhere once you arrive. The cottage is very well appointed with nice furnishings, comfortable beds (even the sofabed was very comfortable) and every amenity you can think of. The property owner, Sherry, was so helpful and ensured we had everything we needed during our stay. This cottage will be my first choice when returning to Grayton Beach!

A Great Place and a Great Area

Perfect For Couples - my wife and I found that to be the case. Everything we were told would be there was - and more! Sherry has this down to an art. Very attentive both before and during the stay. The house and yard are exactly what we would be looking for if we were buying in the Grayton Beach area. I could go on and on about the property - but we want to go back next year and would hate to have someone trying to get our week!
Response from VrboOwner on 14 May, 2020
We are so glad you enjoyed our cottage. We feel so blessed to have found it and are able to share it with others. And of course Grayton in such a unique little area with such Old Florida charm. You two were great guests come back anytime.

Home is very well done. Small but was very comfortable for the 5 of us in my family. Nice short walk to the beach and everything else needed. Bike access was greatly appreciated. Having Beach chairs, umbrella, wagon, etc. Most places don't have all of this to offer the guest. Couldn't of ask anymore from this one.
Response from VrboOwner on 31 Mar, 2020
I am so glad you enjoyed our cottage. It is very cozy yet the perfect size for a smaller group. we are happy you were able to utilize some of the equipment that is available for all of our guest. It is a much more pleasant experience when you have a lot of the comforts of home already there when you arrive. You and your family took great care of our cottage and are welcome to come back anytime!
