Great home

This is an exceptional home. It was fabulous if you have a boat which is always hard to find dock space on VRBO. The communication with the owners was above average and always prompt. I can’t say enough great things about the space.

My family and I stayed at this incredible Fort Walton property for the 4th of July, and it was truly unforgettable! The house was absolutely perfect — clean, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a relaxing, fun-filled vacation.One of the biggest highlights for us was the private dock, which made bringing our boat so easy and convenient! We spent our days out on the water and loved coming back to unwind in the huge backyard — perfect for grilling, games, and just soaking up the sunshine. The property also had plenty of parking, which was a big plus for our group.Terri, our host, was absolutely amazing — so kind, responsive, and thoughtful. She even left us a sweet welcome gift, which made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived.The location couldn’t have been better for the holiday weekend. We had easy access to beaches, fireworks, and restaurants, but still felt like we had our own private oasis.We’re already planning our return — it was that good. If you’re thinking about booking this property, do it. You won’t regret it!

Just Perfect!

This beautiful home has everything you need for a relaxing weekend on beautiful Cinco Bayou! The hosts are as wonderful as the property, and the property is superb! We honestly would not change a thing about the place. The lot is gorgeous, the dock is large and inviting, the home is spacious, comfortable and well-appointed with bayside living in mind, and the outdoor patio deck and outdoor kitchen are ideal for enjoying the view of Cinco Bayou day or night. The fire table just adds to the ambiance. We will certainly be coming back if the hosts will have us! A+++++!

Fantastic property

This was my first time booking a Vrbo. So I wasn't entirely sure what to expect but this house was amazing, clean, spacious. and the VIEW is amazing. We saw so many dolphins a turtle and a blue Herron. The owner responded right away when I reached out regarding a light issue. But it was only to make them aware. Highly recommend! if we happen to be in this area again for softball I will absolutely rent this house!

Highly Highly Recommend. My Family and I loved this house. Large and Roomy for Everyone. Grilled steaks outside while watching outdoor patio large screen tv, watched dolphins surface several days in a row and even caught a few fish. Looking for crabs on the shore was also a huge bonus for the little one. Great location, not far from Walmart or the White Sand Beaches. Hoping to book again soon for another family vacation.

Excellent for stay with boat!

Our stay was excellent all the way around. Home was clean and in good condition. Standout was dock and back deck, could not ask for better. I hate to go from that to “issues,” because they do outweigh the good and would put in category of recommendations. Large TV in seating area near kitchen would not connect to streaming devices. The second, much bigger, was the number of security cameras everywhere. A bit of uneasiness, regardless of being on/monitored or not. But would stay again without second thought.

2023 Destin vacation

House & boat dock was perfect for our family of 8, especially the boat dock. We had easy access to our pontoon boat & 2 jet skis. Plenty of room for all 3. The only thing negative I have to say is the mattress on the pullout couch was pretty rough, mostly springs. Other than that it was by far the best location for us that we’ve rented in Fort Walton/Destin area. I definitely recommend this property & the host were great!

Excellent Dock

Excellent boat conditions. The dock seems brand new, has really nice bumper pads on the columns, has shore power and strong water pressure from the water hose. Public boat ramp at the PNC up the street less than a half mile away. No line to put in. 20 minute boat ride to crab island on plane no idling the whole way. Near ideal boating scenario. Very happy.

Heaven on the Bayou

We had an absolutely wonderful time staying at this home for Thanksgiving. There was plenty of room for us to congregate together or spread out if we needed some space from each other. The kitchen is incredibly well stocked with any pot, pan, and utensil you could need and we cooked a huge Thanksgiving dinner with ease. The beds are very comfortable and the view of the bayou from the back deck is gorgeous! We had lots of fun fishing from the dock. We had a minor issue while staying there (technology always likes to remind us how much we depend on it) and the owners responded IMMEDIATELY and went out of their way to fix the issue - even on Thanksgiving day. Some family members have already talked about wanting to stay at this home again in the future. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us!
