My husband and I stayed 12 nights and didn’t want to leave! The house was clean, well equipped and the beds were very comfortable. We watched dolphins every morning from our balcony. The serene atmosphere was perfect for us. The Pickleball courts were a plus! We will be back.

Beautiful location

The Skipper did not disappoint! The house was extremely clean, right down to the baseboards and corners! The beach was beautiful and quiet. We lucked out with a gorgeous week of weather. Found beach treasures galore. Enjoyed sunset walks everyday with the best photo ops because there were no crowds of people to contend with. The ice machine in the freezer was the only thing out of order, but we were able to get ice at the marina very near by! Thanks for sharing your place with us Robin!

Serenity and Seclusion

Our stay at the Skipper Beach House was delightful! We spent New Year's at the Skipper and the beaches were serene and not over run by tourists. The views are absolutely breathtaking from all areas of the beach house! I loved sitting on the balcony with my pups while I indulged in a book with the sounds of the ocean in the background! Robin was a great host! I will definitely be coming back to this piece of paradise!

A quiet, restful getaway.

My husband, myself and our 2 dogs spent a week at this lovely home. Set right on the beach, you can hear the waves lapping all day, and that's about the only sound you'll hear. Beautiful sunsets/sunrises. Absolute tranquility. The house is well stocked, bed very comfortable. Everything as described in listing. Would love to come back.

Fantastic stay at the Skipper!

The perfect place for a group of four. This a not a place to go if you a looking for a touristy area. It was absolutely perfect for us. Quiet, beach access right out back. All the amenities we needed and spacious enough we weren’t in each others way. We’d definitely stay here again.

Relaxing

We enjoyed the area so much, and the house is 'as advertised'. So dark at night we stargazed and watched comets, satellites etc. Eat at Poseys, go to Wakuylla and take the boat tour and have a meal in the dining room. Lot;s of fishing and boating opportunities....or just bring some books.

Great Sunsets

This beach house was very clean and well outfitted. The 2 covered decks overlook the beach and provide the best sunsets. The master bed might be the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in. The living room could use a more comfortable couch. Having laundry was a bonus. We really enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful view and perfect place to get away

The property is beautifully located to enjoy the waves from the gulf. The beach is quiet and the area is amazing. Away from the hustle and bustle. Plan to pack your meals in and the kitchen is well stocked with cookinb essentials. The outdoor shower is great to rinse off the salt and sand. The patios have great outdoor furniture to sit and enjoy the Gulf. Communication with the host was excellent. Dont pass this up!
