Jun 6, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Nice little water front house .The host was great .Its is private and it has it own pier they are still working on improvements. The only things that wasn't up to par is the fridge wasnt cleaned out had old food in the freezer and fridge and the mini fridge was full of out dated drinks so we didnt use either of those and the water pressure was awful but we just dealt with what we had but all and all it was good . ##### Emmy A. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bruce M. May 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Best Place to Relax If you enjoy the water, great views, awesome sunrises and sunsets, this cabin is for you. You can experience all that Destin as to offer and come back to recharge. The neighbors are nice. You can catch bait fish off the dock and fish all day. There is a small park and free boat ramp next to the cabin, but the water is shallow. You can boat to Desin but we found it better to haul the boat closer to Destin to enjoy the beautiful blue water. The Emeral Coast is a must see. ##### Bruce M.
