We really enjoyed our stay and appreciated the well stocked kitchen for the family. Close walk to the beach and local restaurants shopping are short drive. We rented a golf cart and made parking easy at the beaches too.

Pride of ownership is evident in this little cottage. It was meticulously cleaned prior to our arrival and we felt very, very safe and comfortable. Nothing was outdated nor out of place and we would highly recommend this home.

On-line pics were just as in person, very clean and cozy cottage. Love that we could walk to beach and that chairs were available to use from property (could have used a couple of regular chairs for us older ones who have trouble getting down), as well as an umbrella. Loved sitting on porch in the evening and a very friendly neighborhood experience. In our group of 5 girls (women) we could use more wash clothes especially the makeup ones. Great time by all, we are from the west coast so everyone wants to come to Florida now instead of San Diego where we usually go.

We had a great stay at Sea Dog. We were disappointed that the pool was closed due to a fire. With 4 young kids we were looking forward to a safe location to swim outside of the ocean. The owners gave us some money back due to the inconvenience. Just a short walk to the beach we are looking forward to another stay in the future.

We loved the location of this home. On a quiet street with super friendly neighbors! The home was perfectly clean and just as pictured. Would recommend this home to anyone staying the area.

Absolutely gorgeous. Was perfect for our family get together. The openness of the kitchen, dining room and living room made our togetherness more enjoyable. I’m sure there were incredible restaurants nearby, but the house felt like home so we enjoy cooking our family favorites. The location was awesome. A few minutes walk or bike ride and we were at the beach. Such a Hallmark like neighborhood. Loved it!

Great place. Agree it’s slightly overpriced but 2021 summer is overpriced. Had one issue with uhaul trailer(wasn’t listed that it wasn’t allowed.). Midway thru the stay I was asked to move it kindly by one person managing the property. However the other part of management was less understanding and rude. Nonetheless overall pleased given the appropriate responses by Bruce. Would stay again!

We had a great stay. The owners couldn’t be more gracious and quick to respond to any questions we had. Their place is updated and extremely clean. Fantastic location just a couple blocks from the beach and located in the heart of Destin. Bigger and more spacious than shown in the photos. We enjoyed our stay. Thanks again!

My family of 5 was quite comfortable in this lovely home which is located in a charming neighborhood. It is a 6 min walk from the front porch to toes in the sand on a spectacular stretch of beach. The neighborhood pool is located only 2 houses down and although not huge, was never crowded so it was perfect. Spring Break is a very busy time of year (and especially with everyone desperate for a much needed vacation this year!) but the Publix grocery store, mall and numerous restaurants were a very close and convenient drive. The owner, Bruce was very friendly and responsive. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
