First off, if you want literally right on the beach this is it! We had a great stay, and the AC unit is ice cold. The only complaints (first world problems) is wished the bathrooms were bigger, just not enough counter top space. The host is excellent! There were plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas, sand toys and a kayak. The outer deck is wonderful, and 2 grills ready to go for cooking. Iâd definitely come back. Some will say âitâs dated a bitââŠ..well a little but we werenât here for a 5 star resort. Bottom line, if you have a big family or several and want right on the beach this is it.
Excellent location right on the beach. The property itself is little run down and for a very small investment it could easily become just as beautiful inside as the views it commands.
The house was in a great location and we loved that it was just steps to the beach. The house could use a little updating and new furniture and I didn't care for the shared pool situation but overall it was great! Family concensus is that we would definitely stay again.
Loved this property! Easily accommodates every age group from infants to older adults. Steps away from the beach! Perfect!! Will absolutely stay there again!!!

I rented this property for my family to stay at for my sons wedding. This was perfect for us. Well stocked with towels, cooking utensils, games, puzzles, and much more. There were lots of sand toys for the children to play with on the beach. We loved this place and will definitely be coming back here!
This place is great for large family groups. Plenty of space. True beachfront location sand right off the front porch. Itâs a true traditional inlet beach experience. Not many spots like this left in inlet beach. 5 stars.
We greatly enjoyed are stay at Katherine's Sandcastle! The location was wonderful from being right on the beach to only minutes from 30A to only about 40 minutes from Destin and about 20-30 to Panama City. The home was spacious and comfortable. The extra fridge in the garage was a nice added touch and the gas grill was stocked with propane for cooking. We enjoyed having the chairs setup for us everyday and great private beach! Would definitely stay here again!
Comfortable beach house in a great location. It was lovely to wake up and walk onto the beach. House comfortably slept the 11 of us. Host provided water toys (boogie boards, paddle boards, life vests) as well as beach chair and umbrella set up. I would have given it a 5 star rating if linens, towels, and dishes were in better condition and quality. I would definitely recommend this host and home if you are looking for a beach getaway.
From booking to staying, this property was great! The hosts were very friendly, very helpful, and very accommodating. The weather was temperamental, but Jay (Damonâs brother) was VERY helpful with setting up chairs, giving us advice about the beach, and coming to set up whenever we requested if the weather got better. There were plenty of activities and water toys to enjoy and we even enjoyed a bonfire one evening (would totally recommend spending the money for this!). The house was lovely- furniture was a little outdated and rundown, but to be expected with a rental thatâs rented out all the time. Overall, we couldnât beat the location and helpfulness. Thanks SO much!
This house is absolutely perfect for beach lovers. The views are spectacular. The host and family are super nice and helpful.
The ONLY negative is the house is a little shabby. Old wobbly furniture with stains. Shag carpet on stairs and second floor.
I would definitely stay here again.
****Also be aware your dog is NOT allowed on the beach and Code Enforcement is very aggressive in enforcing this. Drive by the house EVERY 30 mins and stare to make sure the dog is not on the beach. This was a huge negative and I also went on the county website and left the same information,***
There is something magical about this house. We've been here several times the past six years and each stay has been exactly as expected (although, to be fair, the first time exceeded our expectations). The updates are nice, although I miss the carpeted areas (I am not used to walking on stone all over the house).
Location on the beaches was wonderful, having access to pool was great. We had a wonderful week. While I realize itâs hard to do with back-to-back rentals, this home could use a thorough deep cleaning.
We've stayed here four times (and counting) over 3 years. The location absolutely cannot be beat. The home is comfortable and can accommodate extended families easily. The views are so peaceful I truly feel rested and ready to take on the real world when I have to leave. I don't want to go anywhere, just cook and watch my family play and hang out and truly be in the moment.
This was our 3rd time staying here. I never want to leave the house while I'm here. This time, I brought friends and their families to celebrate my birthday. So many wonderful memories were made and I look forward to the next visit, already on the books. This house is 100% the best beach house. You can't get a better view and the area is not as crowded as other places.
The property was first purchased by my grandfather around 1949-1950. He built the first "beach houses" for the family to come to from Enterprise, Alabama in the 50's. My parents took over in the 80's and decided to update the homes. This house was built in 1992 for rentals and family enjoyment. My kids are the 3rd generation of kids growing up on this beach.
The house is unique because we have nothing between the house and the beach. The house was built with multiple family use in mind. We have 1 bedroom down stairs which is helpful with grandparents that come and cant climb stairs. It also helps that there is minimal stairs to beach and grandparents and parents can feel close to kids on beach while staying on porch or inside. The houses bedding it set up to maximize comfort for splitting ups group need for kids, baby's and parents.
