Perfect getaway
We had a great stay, it was suppose to be a beach vacation; however, the house was so comfortable and had many activities to do outside with a perfect secured yard for our Frenchie we didn't even have time to miss the beach. Tiffany is a responsible and caring host, easy to reach and very understanding of guests' needs. The property had no surprises, everything was just as decried, perfect. The time went by way to fast. We will try to get back.

The BEST !
This house is absolutely gorgeous. It was extremely clean . I can not say enough. On the first night , we were able to have a personal dolphin show . We caught plenty of fish ! There are 3 kayaks to use as well. The house is close to Destin which is where we spent our days . It was so nice to go home to our pretty home . I will surely go back and 1000 percent recommend this home to others .

Bayou House Beauty!
Our family had an excellent stay at this beautiful, quiet, clean property. The kids enjoyed fishing from the private dock (with 3-day visitor fishing licenses) and the fence allowed our dogs to run free. The owners are very attentive and the house was welcoming and well-stocked. We hope to stay there again soon.

Rest & Relaxation
Tiffany & Adam thought of everything! Absolutely spotless, inviting and immaculately decorated. Essentials + fully stocked! Truly home away from home. Husband was in heaven fishing right off the dock! Short drive to the beach, Destin Harbor and Ft Walton Beach Boardwalk for great seafood, atmosphere and touristy shops!

The needed Spring Break!
My husband and I booked the house with the plans to have our daughter and son-in-law come along. They were most definitely ready for a break from work. The huge draw to this house was how accommodating the hosts were over our small dogs, and that it was not in midst of all the spring break people. Since break was in March, we did not want the usual "beachy" break. Instead, we had a "bayou" break and loved it! Quiet and peaceful. That being said, the house is equipped for all sorts of family fun!

Serene waterfront beauty
This serene property was perfect. My father in law enjoyed sitting on the back porch to read his book. The waterfront was so quiet and relaxing. Tiffany was a great manager and easy to contact. We enjoyed fishing off the dock and the fenced in yard worked perfect for our goldendoodle. We loved this property.

We were all impressed with the how clean the house is the moment we walked through the front door! It’s the first place we have stayed that feels exactly like home. The quiet neighborhood was just awesome which allowed us to sit on the covered deck and enjoy the spectacular views of the bay. We were disappointed when it came time for us to leave and all of us are ready to go back! I can’t imagine anyone having any thing negative to say about this beautiful place!! And Tiffany is the best in making sure you have everything you need to enjoy your stay!!!! Five stars are not enough to rate this wonderful place.

Our vacation was awesome!
We visited this property for our honeymoon and were not disappointed. It was one of the best equipped and clean properties we have ever stayed in. It was very quiet and peaceful and we relaxed and enjoyed the views. Unfortunately, we did not have great weather so were not able to visit the beach much. Even so, we had a great time and would definitely go back in the future. Tiffany was great to deal with and communicated everything in detail and timely replies. It's a beautiful property and would highly recommend it for any vacation stay!

Great house to bring your boat to for the week. The house is open and spacious with plenty of parking and a wonderful backyard leading to the bay. Kayaks and hammock were a nice bonus. We will be back.
