We had the best time imaginable while here. perfectly located on the harbor with a huge boat dock and perfect area for swimming in front of the house. the house is pretty huge on the inside. the only thing I would say is make sure you read every word when booking because it points out quickly that there is a boat dock and to bring your boat but not till further down does it mention you'll have to pay 50$ a day to keep your trailer because you can bring your boat but not what comes with it. very inconvenient to put your boat over then drive almost 30 minutes from the house to store your trailer at an expensive rate and then have to do it again when it's time to leave. other than that, we would Definity recommend this house to anyone wanting to use their boat every day like we did. 100% would recommend to anyone. Also, the neighbors are very nice and willing to help with any little things.

Thank you for your detailed review! We’re thrilled to hear that you had such a fantastic time and enjoyed the harbor location, boat dock, swimming area, and spacious interior. We appreciate your feedback regarding the trailer storage fees and understand how that could be inconvenient. We always encourage guests to review all listing details, including the information about boat and trailer arrangements, to plan accordingly. It’s wonderful to hear that the neighbors were helpful and friendly. You were great guests, and we’d be happy to host you again in the future!

The view of the Destin Harbor was amazing.! The house is very cozy! The house has a fantastic gaming table if you enjoy card games. It is located in a perfect spot on the harbor. We saw Dolphins right off of the pier... So special!! The kids enjoyed the sun and the sand and played in the water every day. There is a nice shady area under the main deck where we played games and chilled in the heat of the day. The upper-level deck and pier were the sunset spots with great views of the passing boats and night lights. We will definitely book this house again. We even extended our stay, it was so easy with the management company. They made Mother's Day a very special day for our family. Thanks so much GW!!!!! The Lazors

Best location in Destin!! Backyard has an amazing dock with running water and lights to park my boat for a few days. The location of the home can't be beat, with access to the boat taxi for a night out, to the beach access point during the day just down the street, this home has it all! The inside was extremely clean, beds were comfortable and the A/C kept us nice and cool. Fishing off the back dock at night kept us entertained in the evening and the firework shows they have in town can be seen from the back patio as well. The whole backyard is such a great place to entertain and be entertained. Checking in and out was a breeze with no issues at all. I really like how they communicate via text with all info but if I had any questions I could pick up the phone and give them a call. Thank you and we will be back!!

The location and water access was great. The patio and dock was a hit with our grandchildren and the hoses to spray off sand was a hit with the adults. Several things were not working, the refrigerators, the downstairs dryer, and the garage door. The property manager was very prompt in getting those things fixed except the garage door was not functioning again the day we left so we had to leave it open. I was surprised that the two floors did not connect internally, that was NOT in any of the descriptions of the property so I felt that was a little misleading. Overall, we had a wonderful time and the property was great.
