About this property

Bayfront Cabin -A Serene Getaway On East Bay

NOTE: If your group is large and need more accommodation, please see my adjacent larger vacation rental at Vrbo # 1014271.

This is a 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath, located right on the water. An expansive lawn and gorgeous custom dock for viewing spectacular sunsets.

This cabin is located only 15 minutes from the pristine Navarre Beach, one of only ten National Seashores and eight miles undeveloped Gulf-front. Four out of seven of the world's sea turtle species nest along this seashore - also home to towering dunes, migratory birds, and miles of trails for exploring. Not too far from Pensacola Beach, not too far from Navarre Beach, but very quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of Pensacola. Everything you need is close, but you are still nestled in a residential neighborhood.

Private and serene, this unique bay-front cabin boasts the tranquility of a lake house, the recreational potential of a beachfront cottage, and endless possibilities for summer entertaining or an engaging winter get-away. Enjoy watching dolphins swim around the dock.

The boats and boards are an extra fee of $150 for your entire stay.
If you're planning to host an event at Bayfront cabin, there is a venue fee. Please message us for further information. We'd love to explain our in house amenities that we include with this!

Perfect

We had the absolute best time at Bayfront Cabin! Diana w/ Bayfront met us after we arrived to show us everything and was a joy to talk to. The cabin and property had everything you could possibly need and then some. The kayak and paddle boards are worth the rental fee - our kids had a BLAST. The beauty is unmatched and the photos seriously do not do it justice! We'd stay here again in a heartbeat!

Our vacation place

Each time we stay at this beautiful property, no one is ever ready to leave. We all start making plans to return the next year. We have all we need and more. The property managers are awesome and available if needed. The house is well equipped and comfortable. There are lots of ways to enjoy the water because of the kayaks, paddleboards, floats that are provided. What fun!! We are never disappointed!

Great property!

Property management company is excellent! Responds immediately, & maintains the property in excellent condition. If we visit Pensacola again we will definitely book this property. Great location & setting with well maintained grounds. The house itself is setup perfectly for multi families with each bedroom having it’s own bathroom plus a powder bathroom. I was very impressed with the property & management company.

Reunion trip

4 couples that graduated together in 1962-63 have gotten together every spring for last 16 years (one of the couples actually lives in the area). The cabin was the perfect getaway location. The beds were very comfy. The views spectacular. The property manager was the BEST!!! and it has the most well stocked kitchen (pots, pans, every kind of baking dish and bowl)of any I've ever stayed in. We look forward to staying at the cabin in the future.

A Hidden Gem

This is our second time to stay at the property. Our kids love it and it's just a beautiful spot. There is so much to do without even leaving the house. The sunsets are the most beautiful you will ever see. This year, we were there for July 4th and were able to view the beautiful fireworks from the pier. 5 stars all around!!

peaceful getaway

We so enjoyed our stay at Bayfront cabin. The property is just as is pictured! With having two little ones the yard was a big plus. They enjoyed looking for lizards and running in play. We used the hammocks, fire pit and loved watching the sunset from the dock! When weather permitted we went in the water, which was chilly but so clear. We made use of the kayaks as often as we could. We drove to Navarre beach about a 15 minute ride which was lovely and not overly crowded. We also enjoyed grocery delivery prior to our arrival by grocery concierge and a wonderful dinner and brunch by private chef Jekyll. We hope to return during summer months when the water will be warmer.

Will definitely be back!

My family came here for the holidays to visit with family who live in Florida. For all the gatherings everyone wanted to wanted to keep coming back to the bayfront cabin. The setting was perfect for families with children. It had the beach feel to it with the water of course, the pier & dock, the kayaks that are offered, and the décor. But what I loved the most is that it had a cozy cabin feel, especially for the holidays. Between the water and the back porch is enough grass for the kids to run and play. With the huge fire pit in the back and all the lightnings along the trees in the evening was just magical. Carol and Diana went above and beyond making us feel welcome and comfortable. The bedrooms were perfect. My husband and I stayed downstairs in the master bedroom and upstairs was a room with bunk beds for the kids beside another king bedroom for their parents. Each bedroom had their own bathroom which is wonderful. Thank you for making this trip so much more wonderful than I had imagined.

Even Better in Person

Rarely do you find a property that is even better in person, but the Bayfront Cabin is all it’s advertised to be plus more! We were thrilled by the location, views, relaxing environment, cleanliness, and spaciousness. This property is a must to consider. The location is central to Navarre and Pensacola beaches with great access to the bay, Santa Rosa Sound and many other amenities the area has to offer. So very accommodating for a large family and sleeps everyone even better than advertised. You will not be disappointed. Most of all, the property managers and owners are wonderful people that seek to make your stay a wonderful experience. We will definitely be returning.

Amazing!

We had the best stay! We didn’t want to do much but relax and that’s what we did! I was hoping to see dolphins and we did! One swam through the area one morning just lazily enjoying the area! We were so excited! We used the kayaks and paddle boards. We grilled. We had a fire and s’mores! We played games and watched movies and had the best time! We will definitely go back!

Great vacation spot!

The waterfront property was great! The views were beautiful and the owners were great. Great communication! The house is set up great for multiple families or a large family. We were there on rainy days but still had a great time. We fished off the dock and played volleyball in the water in between the rain. Will definitely stay there again!

First beach trip

We are normally Mountain vacationers, living in the Midwest, so this was our families first trip to the beach! This home did not disappoint at all! We loved having the seclusion that the bay offers from the world but the short drive to the beach. Having a waterfront was perfect after the long visit to the busy beach and provided much relaxation and tranquility for our two families. The home owners are the best I’ve ever dealt with through vrbo or any other app. They were so easy to talk to and provided a lot of local information that was helpful (photographer, ect) When we plan another beach trip this will be our first consideration and we will highly recommend it to our friends!

Bayfront Cabin is a lovely place!

We enjoyed being on the bay side! You can get up in the morning and enjoy the water right away or just watch the sunrise on the dock. The water is shallow for quiet a distance, so it’s great for kids! We enjoyed the SUP- boards and kayaks. We caught crabs near the dock, watched dolphins near the dock daily. Water Volleyball was definitely fun! The house has everything you need inside and out, that made packing simple and enjoyed not feeling like I had packed my entire house just to come on vacation. It’s a short drive to public beach access and there is a good restaurant just down the road Dave’s Oyster House. We used the grill providing to cook a couple meals just because we where having too much fun at the house to leave. This is the Florida experience we where looking for. Water sand and sun with out all the hustle and bustle of the more tourist like areas. Also the home is exceptionally clean and well kept.

We found the perfect getaway!

We had such an amazing time.!! You literally don’t even have to leave the house except to grocery shop. The property is absolutely beautiful with the trees and dock that overlook the most gorgeous sunsets. The kids and adults stayed entertained with the paddleboards and volleyball and we had peace of mind knowing the water was not deep and no current. We will definitely be back! Thanks for everything! 5 stars all the way!
