Reviews
Grandpa's Beach Camp
5/5 Everything you could want in a beach house rental, plus there were kids beach toys and boogie boards. The upper deck is great for your morning coffee, and there is a conventional coffee pot and a Kuric, filters but bring your own coffee and pods. The down stairs patio area is cool even on a hot day. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. You can walk to the beach and a wagon, chairs, and umbrella are provided. I opted to take my truck and a pop up tent for the kids, just buy a beach permit at one of the stores. I hauled in Groceries but then discovered the Big Store about a mile down the street is has most everthing including Hunt Brothers Pizza, Stingaree is just down the road a mile or so. It was great and the kids had a blast. I'll be back.

Wonderful Place!
5/5 We took our teenage son and his friend down to the beach for President’s Day long weekend which also happened to be the second weekend of Mardi Gras. From the ease of checking in to one of the best VRBO we’ve stayed at over the past 15 years, we love this place! They have everything you need. They were very responsive and super nice to deal with. The couches and beds were comfortable. The kitchen well stocked with everything to cook meals. Great location! We loved it so much we tried to book it again for Spring Break, but they were already booked. We’ll definitely be back.
