Set up on stilts, this lovely cottage features a huge screened-in porch with loads of comfortable seating. The galley kitchen has everything you'll need and you'll also have the convenience of a stackable washer and dryer. With a queen bed in the master bedroom, a twin over full bunk bed in the guest bedroom, and a sleeper sofa in the living room, this cozy cottage sleeps a total of 7 guests comfortably. There is also an outdoor shower, to rise off all the sugar white sands after a day at the beach!

Come fall in love with Grayt Escape and make it your family vacation tradition!

Grayton Beach is a laid-back, organic beach town with old-style wooden beach bungalows and narrow neighborhood streets lined with live oaks. You'll also get a “hippie kitsch” feel having the iconic Red Bar a stroll away. Take the neighborhood boardwalk to the beach or hop on the bikes and head 2.4 miles to explore Seaside. This cool little beach town is also home to the diverse coastal ecosystems of Western Lake and Grayton Beach State Park, and is a gateway to a large expanse of sugar-white beach that is a haven for fishermen, boaters, and beachcombers alike.

Bed Setup:

Master bedroom: Queen Bed

Guest room: Twin-over-Full Bunk Bed

AREA ATTRACTIONS: 

30A is a fantastic destination, the beaches are some of the world’s best with sugar white sand and emerald green waters. You will find plenty of beach accesses along a 17 mile stretch of Santa Rosa Beach. It boasts unique shopping, fantastic cuisine and the incredible architecture that makes 30A famous. Grayton Beach not only provides you with stunning views, it provides you with activities for everyone; kayak rentals, bike rentals, paragliding, fishing, hiking, and snorkeling -- you'll find it all right here!

Enjoy this Funky, Free-spirited town where you will find quaint historic cottages next to modern beach homes.   It’s an eclectic beach burg with good times, picket fences, funky art, and great dining and shopping. You’ll enjoy the many shopping and dining options such as Grayton Seafood Co, or Trattoria Borago. This is much more than a cool beach town, this location is the best of both worlds, enjoy a quiet relaxing getaway while still having a lot of action packed activities at your fingertips. 

The snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Sea Turtle Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 783 feet out from the Grayton Beach State Park access, it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Sea Turtle Reef is at a depth of 12-19 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

Cute little home that was perfect for what we needed. The area has lots of little local fare and the surrounding state parks are beautiful. Having the bikes to ride was a nice little perk

Hmmmm…
Mattress are really old and you sleep in “indentations”. Every shift in the night is accompanied with the bed creaking, squeaking or the headboard banging on the window sill. Overall cleanliness was below average. All sorts of hair in the bathroom floors and shower. Spray more for bugs. Killed multiple roaches. Can understand why as you can see daylight around the back door in the kitchen. May visit Grayton again but definitely won’t stay at this place.

Perfect quiet family vacation
Grayt Escape was perfect for our family of four. Quiet street and an easy five minute walk to the beach access. The house had everything we needed. The screened in porch and outdoor shower were amazing to have as well. We can’t wait to return!

What a Grayt Escape!
Grayton has long been our family's destination for vacation. This was the first time staying in a rental. While small, the cabin is beautifully maintained, in a perfect location, comes with bikes!, and the management company was very responsive.

We loved it!
My daughter and I really enjoyed this little house. It was a perfect size for the two of us - it would also work well for a small family. We were happy to be just a short walk from the beach and loved that there were bikes also available to use. There are some very small improvements that would make this property more comfortable, but overall we loved it.

We loved it!
Our place was very clean! No cobwebs on the porch like some places have. The bikes were in excellent condition. The beach was not overly crowded like Destin tends to be. There were plenty of places to visit within biking distance. I love that the cabin is on the edge of the neighborhood with the woods right across from us. There wasn’t a lot of traffic on our street. I was at peace sipping wine on the screened in porch with no mosquitos or other bugs bothering me.

We enjoyed our stay here. The home is tucked away on a quiet street. This was our first time staying at Grayton Beach, but it won’t be our last. The home is exactly as pictured & perfect for a couple. The bikes were an added bonus.

Clean, convenient and love the area. Bikes were great. Few basic amenities would have been nice as we arrived by plane i.e beach chairs, beach towels, kitchen basics like foil, Saran Wrap. Lighting in bathrooms not great . Regardless, comfortable and enjoyed it all!

The house was perfect for our family of four. Our college age daughters took turns sleeping on the upper twin bunk. We all loved the outdoor shower after the beach, which is a short walk down the street followed by a short hike on a sandy path. My husband loved biking to the local coffee shop and checking out the surrounding area in the morning when it was cooler. The limited beach access meant smaller crowds. We would love to rent again.

Grayt Summer Getaway
We definitely loved the location of this property. Easy walk or bike ride to anywhere we needed to go. It was just big enough for 4 of us. Kitchen is very small, but it was fine for cooking/preparing light meals. The dishwasher and washer/dryer were great! Needs a larger non-stick pan added to the cookware supply. The primary bedroom needs a new mattress. We "rolled to the middle" on that one. Primary bathroom needs more lighting. The one light fixture was very dim and was hanging down from the ceiling. A tv in the second bedroom would also be nice. The front porch swing was great. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the front porch every day. The interior of the porch could use a paint touch up and there were several places in the screens that need repair/replaced. The outdoor string lights need to be replaced as well. The outdoor shower was great added touch. RealJoy rental company was awesome to work with. They were very efficient and kept us updated and notified as our trip approached. House entrance and bike codes all worked properly. We never had to contact them for anything. The only code/password discrepancy was the WiFi password info listed on the refrigerator. It's not correct. The password given by RealJoy is the correct one. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our vacation to Grayton Beach and will definitely be returning to that area in the future.

Great location and beach access
Best feature was the easy beach access. Property was large enough for a couple or small family and was accurately described in the listing. Beds were comfortable and we never ran out of hot water. Outside storm doors could use a little maintenance. All in all a very positive experience. We would stay here again.
