This property is superb! The house is beautifully decorated in a great neighborhood. The host is amazing. I can't rave enough about our wonderful stay! The game room is fantastic, love the shuffleboard and jenga! We also loved the karaoke mic! We brought our whole family and it was wonderful for all my kiddos. This is the perfect place for a family or friend trip. Close to the beach, shopping, restaurants, you name it. Perfect family vacation.

My family took a quick, last minute trip to FWB & this was a great place to stay. The kids loved that they had their own rooms & the beds were comfortable. The location was great & the house is so cute! The host was very responsive when we had questions & had awesome recommendations for restaurants in the area. We will absolutely stay here again.

Wonderful Place!
Super cute, super clean little home in a great location. The fenced back yard was perfect for our dog, and it was stocked with everything we could possibly need. King bed was very, very comfortable. Rae was a very responsive, excellent host. The neighborhood was quiet, safe and walkable, and we loved having the Fort Walton Beach Recreation just two blocks away--very inexpensive for daily workouts, with a large ball field area behind for walking. Just a short drive to the beach and to Liza Jackson dog-friendly park. Lots of shopping and restaurants a short drive away as well. We'll definitely be back for another stay some day!

Nice place to stay
This was my first VRBO experience, and it has set the bar very high for any future VRBO stays. This was a very nice place to stay. It was decorated nicely and felt very warm. I felt like I was staying at a friend’s house. There were extra towels, pillows and blankets, and the kitchen was stocked reasonably well with dishes, pots and pans (and a dishwasher). As for cleanliness, it was spotless. The host was very easy to work with and responded to my questions quickly.

Perfect House Close to the Beach!
I actually hate leaving reviews when we find a hidden gem because I want to keep the hidden gem all to ourselves! :) We have stayed in a lot of VRBO’s and pay attention to detail, and this house checked off all of the boxes for us! It was clean, nice, roomy, and had everything we needed. It was a quick 8 minute drive to the beach with plenty of restaurants and stores close by. The backyard was huge and gave ample room for our dogs to run and play. The decor was defiantly my style, which made it feel like home. I loved all of the details they paid attention to like the extension cords on both sides of the bed in the master bedroom! I know that sounds silly, but I hate going to a rental and not being able to charge my phone and items at night because all of the plugs are being used. I also loved the full length mirror! The host was very easy to communicate with, kind and gracious. He made sure we had all we needed (and our dogs). We will definitely be back. Thank you for such a wonderful stay.

Auwful owner
The owner accused me of a dog causing dog fur with a dirty window. Both are lies by the owner!
Then they changed me extra cleaning fee. The owner is a thief and a criminal!

This property was quite, clean, and close to the Destin / Ft. Walton attractions. Property manager was very flexible with our plans and quick to respond. House was stocked with everything we needed from an awesomely cool AC to salt and pepper shakers for cooking. Yard was spacious for playing with our dog. Would highly recommend to stay here again!
