Relaxing

This place was perfect! Tracey answer all questions, and offered to do anything she could do to help. We came down for parents 50th anniversary. Everything was convenient to us. Trying to celebrate my parents, not having to worry about anything else, was great. Everything was very clean, beautiful view. We did fire pit with kids, and smores. We really could not ask for a better place to stay. Thank you so much. We will be back!

Pensacola Paradise

This house exceeded our expectations. So cute and clean inside. Tracey had everything you would ever need and then some. Perfectly located from the places we visited. The dock across the street would be a great place to sit with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine and watch the sunset-we unfortunately ran out of time. Would highly recommend a stay here and will come back for our future trips.

Thank you Tracy & Kevin for being great hosts! They went above and beyond to make sure our stay was the best it could be. The view of the bay is amazing and we loved being able to fish off the dock. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. We will definitely stay here again.

The house was better than expected from the listing. Location is fantastic, bay view from your front door and living room window. Very good use of space, well stocked, one of the best short term rentals we have experienced. Seems remote yet the location is convenient to everything. My wife was concerned about being on a major rd but traffic is not bad on the rd and the house has a circle drive for easy ingress and egress. We brought my mom with us and she was impressed at how clean the house was, coming from my mom that’s impressive. Highly recommend this home.

Holiday weekend full of reunions

We traveled to Pensacola primarily to attend the retirement ceremony of someone I served with in the Army. We ended up reconnecting with some old friends who moved to the area as well. The weekend was full of great and long overdue reunions. The house we stayed in allowed for ample time to relax and recouperate. Clean linens, clean bathrooms, and a great environment overall.

Beyond stellar!

Hosts were absolutely amazing, were so helpful and accomodating with our chaotic situation while evacuating from hurricane Milton. The house was spotless, fully equipped with everything you could think of and even some things that might not cross your mind! Within a couple miles of gas and convenience stores, beautiful view from the porch for morning coffee, awesome back patio, yard and fire pit for winding down in the evenings. Can’t even think of anything that could have made this a better stay.

Away from the Crowds

This house is very well decorated with attention to detail in every room. It is also very clean. We walked to the pier to see the sunset one night and didn't leave for almost 4 hours. That was the most relaxing and peaceful part of our stay and we soooo enjoyed it. It is not as close to the beach as I am used to but in the end- it was perfect. It was so nice to get away from all that traffic and if relaxation is what you're looking for, this is the perfect place.

Clean, Nice House Across The Bay

This home included everything we needed and was very clean and nice. There is an easily accessible pier on the bay which is very peaceful to sit on. You do have to cross the road, and at times, there is a lot of traffic, but it wasn’t hard to do with older kids. Tracey responded to messages quickly and was very helpful. Overall, my family would recommend this home, and we would stay again.
