Waterfront vacation home built in 1930s, right on the Gulf. Well-chosen updates make it clean and modern, while retaining old-world charm: solid windows downstairs flood the house w light and provide views of passing dolphins and diving pelicans. The open kitchen lets you watch the kids playing on the sandbars while you're cooking. The outdoor shower under the oak trees with Gulf view - doesn't get much better than that!

Our sleeping porch upstairs means fun for kids old and young. Four more cozy BRs make this charming home perfect for your family reunion or peaceful getaway.
If you can tear yourself away, go explore nearby fishing villages of Carrabelle and Panacea, historic Apalachicola, and the spectacular wide beaches of St George Island.
Just under a one-hour drive from Tallahassee Airport.
Air conditioned. Washer and dryer.

    The house is old school cool on the Forgotten Coast. We had 6 adults and 6 kids and there was plenty of room for us all. The ocean view is awesome as it's just steps away from the house. Love the area's undeveloped feel. It's a great place to just get away from it all and relax.

    Quaint home right on your own private beach!! We rented kayaks and paddle boards. We had a fabulous time with our entire family. Played games, cooked dinners together, sat by the beach.....it was wonderful!! Plenty of room for everyone! We will be back!!

    This was absolutely the best place we've ever stayed! There were 10 of us and we ranged in age from 2 to 70. Great fit for everyone and the proximity to the beach was wonderful. Every adult (6) entered the house saying Wow, this is great! There was plenty of room for all, and no one complained about anything. We stayed a week and only ate out one meal. When we realized we were going to run out of garbage space in the bear proof can, Tracy and her brother came up with a solution. My daughter said it was awesome and my daughter in law said it was the most relaxed she'd been her entire furlough. It was great to have all our family in one house since this was the first time we were all together in 4 years. We plan to stay here again!

    This was the most relaxing vacation property we have ever stayed at. Such beautiful views and scenery in such a unique setting. It was a step back in time, which was truly appreciated by all of us. The house and surroundings were a true picture of my vision when reading novels like Sullivan’s Island. The gazebo was everyone’s favorite place. We hope to return soon.

    Perfect location for a low key family get together. Very comfortable and quiet location with all we needed to prepare family dinners, play cards and relax on the beach. Plenty of room to travel with extended family thanks to the kids room with 5 beds. Owners are easy to contact if needed.

    This property is basically on its own private beach with a few other houses. The house set up with beds and furnishings was ideal for our large gathering. Kitchen had everything we needed and with the out door shower we were all able to get ready easily. We sat on the dock over looking the beach and ocean each evening watching the storms rolling in and it was heaven. If your looking to go out to eat your looking at driving 20 to 45 mins so plan to cook at home some nights. We loved our stay.

    We had an amazing time on our vacation. The house was very spacious and homey. Lots of bedrooms and never felt crowded with our group. The AC was nice and cold. Lots of bathrooms with great water pressure. There were two refrigerators in the kitchen which worked out great since we traveled with two family’s. Every morning we walked out to the gazebo to enjoy the beautiful beachfront views. It was so easy to relax in the shade of the gazebo while the kids enjoyed playing in the sand and water. The beach is very private and just the local residents are on it. It has a very friendly welcoming feel to the beach and surrounded by nature. The waters are calm and easy to play in with small kids. There are also sandbars to you can walk out and fish off the beach. The beach is in the backyard so we could easily enjoy it throughout the day and evening without having to tote a bunch of stuff. The hosts were great and helpful. We look forward to revisiting again.

    Had a great time. Even with 3 solid days of rain the house had enough spaces for people to get away in order not to get stir crazy. The outdoor deck is fantastic!

    It was a great week. Twelve of our family members spent time on the beach fishing and taking walks. The gazebo allows you to be near the beach without walking in the sand if that is what you prefer. The owner was always available When I had questions or concerns. Thank you, Tracy!
