5 of 5 STARS

We have stayed in Destin the last three summers, and this was by far our favorite location. No busy streets to cross, and the area is quiet and perfect for families. We had two families in our group: two couples and 6 kids. Note that you must go outside to get to the lower level of the house, but this was fine as the older kids were able to use the queen and 4 bunk beds downstairs, and we kept the youngest kids upstairs with us. There was a set of bunk beds in one of the upstairs bedrooms.

The kitchen was well-equipped (two blenders!), coffeepot and built-in grinder, and nice Fiestaware plates and mugs. Most rentals leave me wishing I had my own kitchenware, but not the case here. We never had a shortage of serving dishes, utensils, small appliances, etc. There is a second refrigerator and plenty of plasticware in the second kitchenette downstairs.

The private pool was everything we hoped it would be... the kids really enjoyed coming back from the beach, showering off the sand in the outdoor shower, and then hopping into the pool. There was a huge stock of pool and beach toys. I recommend taking inventory of what toys, chairs, and coolers are there before heading to Alvin's Island for beach supplies (less than a block away).

Dollar General and Walgreens are also about a block away, and Winn Dixie, Starbucks, and the outlet mall are extremely close as well.

If you haven't been to the white, sandy beaches in Destin, you will not be disappointed. We have traveled to several areas of Florida, Mexico, South Carolina, etc., and this is such a clean, family-friendly beach that we haven't wanted to go anywhere else for the last few years!! The water is fairly calm so we are able to take the little kids out in the water without the waves coming up over their heads.

The owners were great to work with, and we recommend this rental property. Thanks again for the great stay!!

You couldn't ask for anything better! Close to shopping, entertainment and restaurants, also very close walk to the beach. We stayed from May 28th and left June 4th. We had excellent weather up until the day we left but other than that it was a perfect vacation. If you ever encounter any problems the owners will help out in anyway they can. My kids favorite thing to come back to was the pool at night. We would definitely rent from them again!

Thank you so much Jay and kristalynn for sharing your beautiful beach home with us. We had so much fun!! The pool and basketball court kept our children busy. We especially love the private street for our children to wAlk to the beach. Very safe and the neighbors were very friendly and helpful. There were some issues but you took care of them promptly. I would definitely recommend this house to my friends and family.

My family spent a week in August at this wonderful beach house. My daughter and husband brought their three month old and were able to have privacy and convenient access to the rest of the family in the fully equipped downstairs space. We spent much of our time in the private pool before and after the short walk to the beautiful beach. The thirty year old boys spent hours reliving their childhood playing basketball on the court. My family had a great time and look forward to returning!!

Everything about this beach house was perfect. It was so clean and well kept. Location was great as well to the beach and for shopping. One thing we noticed was how quiet the street was. Pool was so clean and pretty. Everything was furnished for all your needs. Couldn't have asked for better owners Jay and Kristalyn.

Expectations Exceeded!

This was the my first time renting a vacation home and the experience at the Summerwind Snowdrift home exceeded my family and I expectations. The owner, Jay, was awesome-easy to work with and answered all questions I had. The house was very clean and had every appliance and dish we needed. My son loved playing basketball outside and the walk to the beach was only about 5 minutes away which was amazing. I am looking forward to booking this house again and my hotel stay days are over! I would definitely recommend the Summerwind Snowdrift home to anyone.

Dream Beach House!

This house was amazing! 6 adults & 6 kids (all under 7). Got hit w/ storms from 2 hurricanes so weather was not the greatest but thankfully the HOUSE saved the vacation!Plenty of space, not cramped. Having covered outdoor living space made it very tolerable in the pouring rain. My husband & I thought it would be a nice gesture to take the "less accommodating" downstairs, but we were wrong! Downstairs is the BEST!! We stole a blender and can opener from upstairs and were all set. Never stepped foot inside upstairs just used the grill on the porch. We only used the tub downstairs to let the kids play with floaty toys when it was storming. Everybody used the outdoor shower since it has hot (bonus!)& cold water, that was my personal favorite!Summerwind is ideal for families with small children. It is well equipped while keeping it simple. I am usually forced to walk through the house with a bin collecting breakables before the vacation gets started, which means I have to factor in the time at check out to put it all back. pain in my neck, but has proven very expensive not to do so in the past. I did not have to do that this time! Yay for mama, not having to stress out about crystal mermaid statues and one of kind blown glass crabs!Jay is so easy to work with and put my mind at ease as far as getting settled in and being comfortable during our stay. I had some crazy questions about what to expect and everything about summerwind exceeded my expectation.The private, gated street was a plus. No drive thru traffic was so nice. The walk to the beach was shorter than the walk to my mailbox at home. This really worked since weather was not on our side the entire time. So in between rain bands we would run back and forth, the kids thought it was a game.In the past we have been guilty of vaction home envy once we actually get there. I feel like I start to compare all the surrounding houses, wishing I had chosen something different. Not this time. Could not have been more satisfied!!If you're on the fence to book, don't be! BOOK IT NOW! WE WILL
