Pinkie Flamingo Welcomes You to You Are My Sunshine at Dune Allen!
Formerly Bearpaw
King / King / King / XL Twin Over Queen Bunk / Sleeper Sofa
3-Minute Walk to Public Beach/Golf Cart/Fire Pit/Hot Tub/Bikes

A quick 3-minute walk to public beaches, this Dune Allen Beach rental with 4 ensuite bedrooms is a destination in and of itself. There is no need to worry about finding beach parking at this location. Use the 6-seater golf cart to drop off beach supplies and family/friends at the public beach access, a 1-minute drive straight down the road. In just minutes, you can walk from the house to the steps of the white sands of the Emerald Coast. With the worry of parking out of the way, you can enjoy the relaxing beach village experience combined with the convenience to amenities sought after by discerning vacationers like yourself. It's no wonder it's popular. This home is surrounded by the natural beauty of three rare dune lakes—Stallworth, Allen and Oyster—and a public section of the beach where ocean fishing yields such prizes as Pompano and Redfish. This house comes with amazing amenities for ultimate guest comfort and convenience. Grab the Yeti 45 cooler, load down the beach wagon, and head to the beach. With the close proximity to the house, vacationers can lounge on the public beach all day without any worries. If you plan to fish, then be sure to grab the Yeti 5-gallon bucket. Every other fishing need can be found at Stinky's Bait Shop, also within walking distance.

This peaceful setting offers the perfect backdrop for your family's vacation memories. Appealing to nature enthusiasts, beachcombers, and those with a keen sense of style, this very popular home delivers on every level. The drive-under parking area accommodates 2 cars with space for 2 more in the driveway. A covered entertainment area is perfect for cozy outdoor gatherings—lounge furniture, fire pit, daybed swing, hot tub, outdoor shower, TV, dart board, cornhole, and grill. This may well be your favorite spot! Take advantage of the on-site 6-seater golf cart, included with your rental. Walton County is one of the few places where golf carts are street legal so take advantage of this fun while you are here and cruise 30A. And don't forget the main event...It's just a short 3-minute walk to the beach access. If you prefer, hop on one of the 4 Yolo Cruiser bikes, and you will be there in no time. There's even the option to load up the Yolo paddle board for fun in the water. Either way, the beach is right where you can find it.

Newly built in 2014, this chic coastal retreat has been completely re-decorated and re-furnished for the 2018 season. It offers 2 floors of interior living, relaxing and inviting... all arranged under soaring 10-foot cathedral-style ceilings. The open concept fully-stocked kitchen, dining, and living area offer several gathering options for eating, playing games, or just being together. The dining table seats 6 with 5 extra bar stools next to the enormous granite island. In addition, there is a quaint wooden picnic table on the front porch and another dining table in the outdoor entertainment area if "dining al fresco" is your preference.

Find one of two master suites conveniently located on the main floor, featuring a king-size bed and attached bathroom with a large walk-in shower. The powder room sits just off the kitchen alongside a spacious pantry/laundry room. Upstairs you will enjoy the second King master suite featuring a king-size bed and attached private bathroom with an additional walk-in shower. Relax on the upstairs balcony just off this room overlooking the streets of Dune Allen Beach. Two more guest bedrooms complete the upstairs with yet another King suite with an attached bathroom and finally the 4th bedroom featuring a new XL twin over Queen bunk and its own private bathroom. All bedrooms are ensuite with accent furniture, flatscreen TVs, and coastal transitional style.

Dune Allen is within walking or biking distance to the restaurants and nightlife of Gulf Place, as well as, other local eateries like Stinky's Fish Camp. Take a short walk or drive to the Cumberland convenience store for those quick snacks, and for easy breakfast and coffee, it's a breezy bike ride to Perfect Pig or Sunrise Coffee, which also serves Charlie's Donuts made fresh every day. Shunk Gulley Oyster Bar at Gulf Place is a 1-mile ride down 30A and features daily live music...simply an incredible place to watch the sunset, some great tuna poke and cocktails. And no beach trip is complete without ice cream. Pecan Jacks at Gulf Place and Blue Mountain Beach Creamery are great spots for this indulgence. Longleaf Greenway Trailhead is just a few minutes down the road off 30A. This is a Florida state forest trail for the enjoyment of bicyclists, hikers, runners and nature lovers. Head a few minutes further east on 30A to Grayton Beach and access many fabulous local eateries like Black Bear Bread Co. and Stumptown coffee. Sunday brunch at the Red Bar or a beer on the deck at Chiringos are other favorites in the area. It is also worth visiting the Grayton Beer Company where you can fill up with something delicious like the Beach Permit Blonde Ale or the Fish Whistle IPA to enjoy back on the deck as the sun goes down.

This Emerald Coast vacation rental find will be one you will want to return to ...year after year.

Awesome beach house

This house was perfect for the 6 teenagers on this trip. The house has plenty of space, stocked with tons of beach things , and plenty of games to entertain. We spent every night under the house playing cornhole. The golf cart made it a breeze to get things to the beach and back. The kitchen has everything you could ever need and we ate in almost every meal. The best beach rental we have ever had!!

Great house and location! VERY short walk to beach. Golf cart was a nice bonus! This house is absolutely the best well stocked/equipped house we’ve stayed in. They have thought of everything! And it’s dog friendly! Brought our dog for the first time and he loved it! The outdoor area downstairs was our fave hangout area when not at the beach. Absolutely perfect place!

Perfect Beach Getaway

The house was everything we hoped for and more. Spacious and well stocked. Very clean and easily accommodated our group of 10. It was a short walk to the beach and the golf cart helped carry the heavy stuff!! The beach closet was well stocked and the covered outdoor area was a lifesaver on rainy days. Would definitely stay again.

Everything you need

Everything was so thought out with this property, from the beach gear to the greatly stocked kitchen. We stayed the week of Christmas and unfortunately a pipe burst downstairs due to a hard freeze that the gulf coast was experiencing. The staff was very quick to respond and came out on Christmas Day to fix the problem. The easy beach access and the golf cart were a great addition. We’re looking forward to staying here in the future.

Fun, clean house with easy quick access to the beach

We thought the location was great. The house was nice, good AC, comfortable furniture and beds. The ground level was a cool place to hang out and listen to music when it was raining and cool out. The golf cart was perfect for getting all the available beach toys down to the beach. Communication with property manager occurred via email. Not the messaging portion of the VRBO App.

Christmas ‘21

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bear Paw. We had all adults and everyone had a nice bed and bath of their own. The house has lots of areas to gather as a group or places to have some privacy if desired. The kitchen was well stocked and the beach equipment was very nice. Any requests/needs from Pinkie was responded to promptly very much appreciated. Look forward to a return trip.
