Gulf Front House, BoatDock/Spectacular View, Central A/C

Looking to get away from it all? You have found it! Quiet,
peaceful Horseshoe Beach - Florida's Last Frontier in the heart of
Florida's Nature Coast. Enjoy spectacular sunsets and starlit
nights with only the sound of mullet jumping in the Gulf waters
merely steps away from this beautifully-furnished home.
Excellent Speckled Trout and Redfish fishing await you inshore in
the grass flats and offshore you'll find great grouper, snapper,
sheepshead and king fishing. Horseshoe Beach is the best area to
get scallops when in season (mid June thru early September).
The house has a very private location at the end of a street. Relax
and unwind....

    We had a great stay at Nancy’s place. The lot was terrific, and when we weren’t out on the boat, we spent most of our time relaxing on the deck. We’d definitely stay here again.

    Lovely views! Spacious home. Easy check-in and check-out. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and the little neighborhood of Horseshoe Beach. Made friends with some locals, rented a boat from Sea Hag marina in Steinhatchee, scalloped our hearts out and made lasting memories with our 5 youngest (of 7) kids. A vacation for the books! Don’t walk….RUN TO BOOK YOUR STAY!

    Boat dock

    One of reason we book the Gulf front house was because of the boat dock, but at low tide there was no water so we couldn't leave or return to the dock. So, we had to use the boat ramp every day for our four days stay. This made it very incontinent for us and wasted a lot of our time. If we know that we would have booked a place cheaper to stay. Other than that, the house was very nice.

    Beautiful views

    Our overall stay was amazing. We had 11 people total and had more than enough room to accommodate us! We planned on scalloping but it seems the recent hurricane has made it more difficult to find them. Luckily the weather was beautiful so we enjoyed boat rides and swimming around sand bars. We were unfamiliar with the area so we did not know about the tides and their effect on the inner canals. Plan your boating trips carefully. Other than that hiccup we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This was our first full family trip with my husbands family and it was a memorable one. <3

    The house was very clean and spacious. Had everything needed to make our stay perfect. Any question I had, Brad answered almost immediately. Plenty of parking. Dumb waiter available and working perfectly. The deck goes around the entire house and there’s 2 levels. The middle level is large enough for the kids to enjoy. Definitely will be renting again.

    Perfect quiet getaway

    Horseshoe beach is an isolated getaway to the Gulf of Mexico. The property is well maintained. A quiet area that allow friends and family to come together for some relaxed boating for the experienced captain. Tides can be a little tricky and need to be referenced before planning your day on the water. We definitely enjoyed our stay. Brad was a wonderful host and excellent communicator.

    Amazing views!

    The views at this home are absolutely amazing! Our family has been coming to Horseshoe Beach for about 15 years and have rented many homes. This house had the most beautiful views. There were a few downsides such as dirt in front of the parking pad that actually required us to use 4wheel drive. The grill was not functional which was an issue as we brought food that needed to be grilled. The bedrooms need work and just felt like it was in need of some minor upkeep that the pictures do not reflect but we had a great time during our week stay. We we’re going to have Check in is at 4pm, no early check in, which seems late.
