Prior reviews of this property are very much accurate. The location offers convenience and efficiency to the beach, two local eateries, and a short drive to anything you read about that Destin has to offer. A huge bonus — feel like a beer and a blackened mahi sandwich or a mess of fresh crawfish at a “ local” place, walk 50 feet across the street to Kenny D’s and bam, beer and quick lunch are available in mere minutes; eat-in of take-out are offered. Never got to Capt. Dave’s, which is another 100 feet away. The beach chair/umbrella guy is also great, very accommodating. The house is as described, many new updates but obviously not new construction either. As long as you align you’re expectations with what you’re giving you’ll be a-ok. I enjoyed my stay, no complaints. Fishing from the beach was possible during my stay (likely because weather was not very great), caught some whiting, a catfish, and a real nice redfish (20+ lbs). The deck needs work, it’s rough, don’t let you’re kids walk barefoot on it, splinters and screw heads are everywhere, but it is functional and the furniture is usable/functional. Overall I give the property 3-3.5 out of 5 rating.
