We had a very peaceful and quiet visit at this lovely, bespoke, Grayton beach home. It was just as described on the website. Our host was always accessible and gracious.The location is an easy, short to walk to the beach, The Red Bar, and to the gallery and shops nearby. The perfect weather, water and sand came together for a beautiful vacation!

We loved staying in this cottage. We walked to restaurants. We used the wagon and chairs and walked 5 minutes to the beach. The cottage is adorable, well stocked, updated and well maintained. The host was available by phone and text, was helpful with all of our inquiries and wanted us to have a good experience. There are lots of books and my favorite spot was the front porch. I hope to visit again.

Great location! Perfect spot for our crew.

Over all excellent location, and space was great. Owner showed up at 10, and surprised we weren’t gone when check out is at 11, and seemed annoyed we hadn’t left yet. We had previously communicated we would be leaving at 11am.

Spotless! Classic old school beach town vibe!

This bungalow in the heart of Grayton was perfect for walking to the beach and restaurants. The home was absolutely spotless and the old world southern beach town charm was perfect for a relaxing weekend. I took several pics to use when we build our retirement house. We had a minor issue that was addressed asap. Great host who responded quickly. We will definitely stay here again!!

Great place to relax and bring in the new year! Short stroll to the beach, local restaurants and park. We were at home the minute we arrived and found the house to be clean, comfortable & cozy. Both the deck and front porch were our favorite spots to spend hours talking and simply relaxing. Sherry was great to work with and we are looking forward to returning soon!
