New management and renovated just in time for 2021 Beach season! Custom Built for family and relaxation, this private spacious home features amazing views of the Gulf of Mexico and Alligator Bay in a private one acre compound away from the crowds. Pull on to the property through the gated entrance and escape the crowds you find at other beaches. The grounds are planted with citrus trees and a huge lawn leads you to your own 100' private white sand beach. Take the private elevator or ascend the front steps to a massive deck and pergola to relax and enjoy 4 seasons outdoor dining or take in the sound of the ocean just steps away. The interior features floor to ceiling tongue and groove walls giving it the Old Florida charm. The main living space is an open concept layout with a spacious, fully appointed kitchen that opens to the family room with a large island, wet bar, and huge pantry/laundry room. Immediately off the Family room, find a cozy screen porch to relax and watch the dolphins at sunset. The master features a Comfortaire king bed and private bathroom en suite with private access to the screened porch. The views only get better in the second spacious private bedroom with a comfortaire king bed. The third bedroom will be a favorite with the kids or grandkids with two queens and a Roku TV. Outside you'll find a private outdoor shower to wash off the sand after a long day at the beach, a screened rec room for beach games, and corn hole for the kids. There is tons of storage for all your beach toys and fishing gear. There's even a cleaning station for your catch. This is the vacation location you've been looking for to start or continue the family tradition away from the hustle and crowds, but close to amazing seafood and restaurants.

Amazing vacation
This is our second time staying here. Since our last vacation, there has been a new deck added to the back of the house. So relaxing as we watch dolphins swim in the morning. We love the setup of the house. Everything is just so comfortable and relaxing!!

Fabulous getaway!!
We had the best time at Shifting Sands!! The decks on the front and the back of the house are amazing! We spent a lot of time on both of them! The view from inside of the house was incredible and we couldn't get enough of it! The house was very comfortable and very spacious. We loved the layout. Everything was just as expected! We enjoyed long walks on the beach and watching the birds and the dolphins! Josh was an excellent host and we really appreciated him.

Beautiful Oceanfront View
The location is very quiet and private with a beautiful oceanfront view. The living area was open and spacious. Living area was neat and clean. It looked like there had been some damage to the screened in porch area and underside of home from recent hurricanes that had not been fixed yet, so the porch area doors did not close properly, but had no effect on the living area, just cosmetic fixes that needed to be complete. The place is quiet and remote, so it took around 30 min to get to a grocery store.The coffee pot quit working one morning, but the property manager had a new one delivered to us within minutes! We very much enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful Beach Home!
We had a wonderful stay at Alligator Point! The house was beautiful, kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed and the fish cleaning station was a great bonus for our family that loves to fish on the beach. This is our third trip to Alligator Point and it’s always a great time!

About the house and the host...
We arrived, got inside easily, loved the place. Cometh then the hurricane. Josh urged us to leave, told us why, and later refunded us the 3 days lost. I almost told him to keep it in exchange for a future stay but we'll take the money and pay it back to him if we're fortunate enough to get back there.

Perfect secluded getaway!
Perfect family vacation spot, especially during the pandemic when being away from crowds was highly desired. Josh is a great host- easily accessible if anything is needed and he even checked in during our stay when he was planning to come to the point for something else to see if we needed anything!

Perfect getaway
The property was the perfect getaway. It was clean and spacious. The screened porch was perfect for the evening sunset. The owners had all of our basic needs to be comfortable. The personal elevator was very helpful in moving our luggage to the main floor. Thank you for allowing our family the opportunity to stay in your home.

Amazing
Everything about this home was amazing! The view speaks for itself, the beds were very comfortable, easily slept our family of 7 with plenty of space. The kids being able to play on the beach and still see them from the porch and living area was awesome. It is secluded you basically have the beach and whole island to yourselves but still close to many things to do. Would definitely stay here over and over again!

Cousins Getaway
We really enjoyed our “long “ weekend at Shifting Sands even though it rained the entire weekend. The screen porch and the view from the living room area were wonderful. The kitchen was well equipped and having two refrigerators was nice. The elevator was certainly a bonus for us as we were a group of women 60-74 years old. We will certainly return as a group or with our families.

Qui vous reçoit ?
Vous êtes reçu par Chip Cordell/Josh Simmons
I was born and raised in Tallahassee and our family "beach cottage" was built at Alligator Point when I was 12. My family spent late May through early September and many weekends there. It was Home. My childhood was a grand time of water-skiing, fishing, scalloping, exploring, and numerous other childhood endeavors. I graduated from FSU then Veterinary School at Auburn University. I founded Tallahassee Veterinary Hospital and practiced small animal medicine and surgery for 36 years. I am married to Charlotte and have three daughters and seven grandchildren, all living in Tallahassee. In 1987, I built "Shifting Sands" at Alligator Point as a weekend home for my growing family as well as a future retirement home. We moved to Alligator Point in 2008 and lived at "Shifting Sands" until my wife's health forced a move back to Tallahassee in 2016. In 2021, the house was updated and renovated and ready for others to enjoy as we have. We miss life at Alligator Point and visit every chance we get. It's heartwarming to think of other families making memories doing the same things we enjoyed so much at "Shifting Sands". One of those favorite memories that I'm sure you'll love is sunset walks on the beach. Enjoy!
Pourquoi avoir choisi cet hébergement ?
"Shifting Sands" is built on the gulf-front property directly across the road from the bay house built by my parents in 1957, the "beach cottage" of my youth.
Quels sont les atouts de cet hébergement ?
"Shifting Sands" has a comfortable, relaxed beach character with all of the modern conveniences. The view of the beach and gulf from an elevated position gives a good angle to everyone in the kitchen and family room. Porpoise frequently teach their young to fish as we watch. Heron and gulls feed almost constantly. Neighbors wave as they walk past on the beach. The porch swing on the front deck is tailor-made for daydreaming.
